Ok is there word play involved with 'Elle'?
Like a world without the letter 'L'?
So instead of world it would be a previous word. Like a word in the first two lines?
I'll feel so special if thats right.
Head on :D
that says to me " ONE "
or Eone lol... im getting nowher with this one...
Me neither, even after my breakthrough(maybe?).
Lmao... ok wow like ur right...that was a huge breakthrough i think... but im am in no different position lol
HEY RANTZIEN WANNA TAKE US UP ON THAT HINT NOW!? :D :D :D
Continue on with the instructions given in the riddle :)
That's the only kind of hint I can give that will help you right now, unless you ask about something specific.
im just really thinking that i should be seeing something in "i'd give in for my age"... but i really have no clue what that line means

Analyze the words a bit and I think you'll find something.
:cool: here's another random post again... ill post the riddle for ease when refferng what i say to the riddle:
"Lo and behold",
Ol' Laguna says to Ellone.
"If I were you,
I'd give in for my age
in a previous world,
without Elle."
now we already know that:
1. "without elle" means without the letter "L", which would make world actually word (thank you HolyMackeral for that connection)
now, when i see that i see the first part as lo and behold ol laguna says to "ONE" or Eone if u take out the "l"s, but one thing im starting to think (im prolly wrong tho) is that when the quote says if I were you...does it mean if the " i "s were "u"s seeing as Elle meant "l"...just more thoguhts and possibly more wordplay in the riddle... but there has to be something about "ONE ".....:p :rolleyes2
p.s. im still stuck on the "i'd give in for my age"line guys...
#2 P.s. random point here, "lo and behold" ususally means "suddenly"
"Lo and behold",
Ol' Laguna says to Ellone.
"If I were you,
I'd give in for my age
in a previous world,
without Elle."
Rantzien has already said that you is referring to us as the riddle solversQuote:
one thing im starting to think (im prolly wrong tho) is that when the quote says if I were you...does it mean if the " i "s were "u"s seeing as Elle meant "l".
lmao see told ya...i was wrong
:cool:
The I-U connection is actually NOT a part of the riddle's word play, but well spotted still. And you can consider yourself ready with the last line. It's just there for making the previous line trickier. So, let's start ruthlessly picking this riddle to pieces. This is what you have now:
"Lo and behold",
Ol' Laguna says to Ellone.
"If I were the riddle answerer,
I'd give in for my age
in a previous word."
The riddle tells you what to do. Rephrase it and do whatcha told :D
I guess we could remove the "If i were you" line as its not really telling us a whole lot except that we should do what comes in the next two lines. Therefore the answer lies here.
I'd give in for my age
in a previous word
Does age relate to the fact that in the second line Laguna is "Ol'"?
