Thread: Final fantasy 8 riddles

  1. #2071

    ichigo

    I was going to guess Inferno...but I had to look up weither or not that was even in the game - but when I recalled that there was Pandemonium.

    Lets... see...


    Find me around the world,
    and I'll let you learn about him.

    Grease might cover me at a house,
    A monkey may also be around.

    I can be at the house of an artisan,
    who doesn't want to help the one who creates sculptures.

    Where I most assuredly can be found.
    Is that guy going to shut up?

    Please, stay the night here,
    You've saved a young one!

    A bit of searching for this ship - you'll find me,
    There on the floor - but keep the location of us a secret.

    I might be six feet under,
    You can have this - read it please.

    I can be found in a home for children that a kind matron runs,
    who have lost their parents - the war must be stopped.

    Beat the owner at a game - you can retrieve something,
    or you can stay an pick me up.

    Our fountain is in front of our best hotel,
    you can read this if you want.

    Oh, dear! I hope you didn't eat that fish!
    Please stay a night - you can read this.

    The train comes and goes because of me,
    You can read this instead of leaving town.

    Do you smell the salt in the air?
    If not, you can read me at the local hotel.

    Centered for no reason.

    You can solve the bonus is you want to - but it has no relation to the riddle above.

    Bonus:
    If you have one too many to drink,
    You might see an array of lights instead of me.

    What is the name of this location?
    You might be more interested in the station behind this place.

    PS: The official riddle might be a bit difficult.

    Is this all one thing?

    Timber Maniacs, perhaps?

    Yes, it is all related to the Timber Maniacs magazines - Timber Maniacs is one of the locations.

    I'd like to see if anyone can guess the other locations, and who it is that you can learn more about.

    Yeah, I think he's got it. It's not in order though

    I think the bonus is talking about the Timber Pub. There's that billboard that tells you about all their rainbow drinks or whatever. I forget the details, but it's in the screen where Zone gives you the tickets after the Timber mission.

    They see me rolling. They hating, patrolling.
    Trying to catch me riding dirty.

    Once I knew it had to do with the Timber Maniacs magazines it was a matter of looking up where they appeared. I wasn't able to match them line for line for every last single one.

    Had no clue about the bonus.

    Yes, BG, you are correct with them. Let me explain.


    Find me around the world,
    and I'll let you learn about him.
    Yes, the him refers to Laguna.


    Grease might cover me at a house,
    A monkey may also be around.
    This one is the magazine found in the Grease Monkey's house in FH.


    I can be at the house of an artisan,
    who doesn't want to help the one who creates sculptures.
    This one is the magazine found in the Artisan's House in the Shumi Village. The Artisan doesn't want, at first (side quest related), to help the Sculpturer - what ever the Shumi working on the Laguna statute is called.


    Where I most assuredly can be found.
    Is that guy going to shut up?
    This one is the magazine found in the Timber Maniacs office in Timber. That last line in this stanza, is meant to be Squall thoughts about the boss.


    Please, stay the night here,
    You've saved a young one!
    This one is the magazine found in the hotel room in Timber.


    A bit of searching for this ship - you'll find me,
    There on the floor - but keep the location of us a secret.
    This one is the magazine found on the floor of the White SeeD Ship. If I'm not mistaken, the White SeeD are the most secret group alive - meant to protect Ellone from Sorceresses (Witches in the Japanese version).


    I might be six feet under,
    You can have this - read it please.
    This one is the magazine found in the graveyard at Trabia Garden.


    I can be found in a home for children that a kind matron runs,
    who have lost their parents - the war must be stopped.
    This one is the magazine found in Edea's House - which is also an orphanage.


    Beat the owner at a game - you can retrieve something,
    or you can stay an pick me up.
    This one is the magazine found in the second floor of the pub in Dollet. Beat the pub's owner and you can get the Occult Fan II magazine along with other items.


    Our fountain is in front of our best hotel,
    you can read this if you want.
    This one is the magazine found in the hotel room in Dollet.


    Oh, dear! I hope you didn't eat that fish!
    Please stay a night - you can read this.
    This one is the magazine found in the hotel room in Balamb, there are two different fishes know to be in Balamb town. The fish that is referred to is the Badamb Fish, which is vastly different from the Balamb Fish.


    The train comes and goes because of me,
    You can read this instead of leaving town.
    This one is the magazine found by the train signal in Balamb twon.


    Do you smell the salt in the air?
    If not, you can read me at the local hotel.
    This one is the magazine found in the hotel room in FH.

    Jiro is right, it is the Timber Pub - but that's not the name I was looking for, here's why:
    Bonus:
    If you have one too many to drink,
    You might see an array of lights instead of me.
    This actually refers to it's name Aphora Pub, aphora is a play on aurora.


    What is the name of this location?
    You might be more interested in the station behind this place.
    The first line should be answered with Aphora Pub. The second line refers to the TV Station, which is located behind the Aphora Pub.

    Either BG or Jiro may go.
    ----------------
    You can locate a bit more about Timber and the Forest Owls here - that is a fan site, but I find it very reliable. This site is another good location to find secrets - it's a walkthrough though.

    Our friend is his idol
    Though he fights with his feet
    Faster than a speeding bullet
    Can he outrun a spanking?


    I'm still getting used to making riddles. I've only guessed two right ever, in like, 5 years.

    They see me rolling. They hating, patrolling.
    Trying to catch me riding dirty.

    That's a pretty generic answer but I think you know who I'm talking about. It was Big Bad Rascal.

    He idolises Zell, who is the friend referred to in the first line.
    Fighting with his feet is a reference to his SUUUUUPPPPERRRRR MIRACLEEEEE KICK that he uses on Galbadian soldiers during the occupation of Balamb.
    He also claims to be faster than a speeding bullet.
    Aaaaand lastly his mother threatens him with spankings for being naughty!

    You're up, Mr Cactuar.

    Truth be told, I never even found the kid once, I just know rumors of him.


    Territory of the gods for the eye of the beholder, but really the demons domain. After the advent from the moon you will find that no place is sacred
