Zack?
Zack?
Past what I can call familiar,
There is a protector, the entrusted one,
But you are familiar as well.
I've fought you long ago, haven't I?
Still guarding your gold, are you?
I'm stronger now, you know?
Tell me, though. What is your name?
Hmmm... maybe the something to do with Dyne and Barret?
None right so far, so I'll give a hint.
Hint1: This riddle refers to a battle. I won't tell you how it refers to a battle, however.
The only battles that spring to mind are the fight with the Materia Keeper in the Nibelheim Mountains or the battle with Red Dragon at the Temple of the Ancients?
Well, you are closer. To give a fairly large hint...
Hint2: The Materia Keeper is the "protector, the entrusted one"
Good job in getting that, but that isn't the entire riddle, by any means.

No to both
Past what I can call familiar,
There is a protector, the entrusted one,
The Materia Keeper is not in the Kalm Flashback, so it's past what Cloud is familiar with. This makes me think that the answer lies somewhere within the flashback, or at least related to it.
But you are familiar as well.
I've fought you long ago, haven't I?
He fought one of those dragons I guess, the one that whips Cloud's ass.
Still guarding your gold, are you?
The only "guard" I could think of is Lost Number but I don't think that's it.
I'm stronger now, you know?
Tell me, though. What is your name?
Yeah I have no idea.
Dammit Jiro, you are so close. I'm not sure if I should just give it to you or not XD
I'm not sure, could the gold be both Gil and the Odin materia?

Need a name for your character, ability, item, or location. I might be able to help, see this entry for more information .
Don't give it to me, let us figure it out![]()
Is it the dragon in the flashback that would one hit Cloud? I don;t think that has actually been a guess and Dak did mention it and you said he was so close you could almost give it to him. Also if it is right Dak can totally have the riddle!
Yes Melissaur, it is!... kinda. It's the same enemy, but it's referencing fighting the enemy again in Mt Nibel.
Past what I can call familiar,
There is a protector, the entrusted one,
This references the flashback, saying that the events of the flashback are familiar to Cloud. "Past" what he can call familiar, means that it is beyond the area of the flashback, meaning the room with the tubes and the Materia Keeper, which isn't in the flashback. Really, these 2 lines are just to allow you to think of the area, which is Mt. Nibel.
But you are familiar as well.
I've fought you long ago, haven't I?
This references the fact that, in the flashback, you fight the Dragon with Sephiroth.
Still guarding your gold, are you?
This references the fact that, traditionally, dragons will guard a large pile of gold, and also a reference to what you can steal from the dragon, a Gold Armlet.
I'm stronger now, you know?
In the flashback, Cloud is weak as hell. Now, he's stronger. That's it
Tell me, though. What is your name?
This is just to narrow down possible answers, letting you know that you are looking for a name, instead of something else. The name was "Dragon"
Melissaur, or Jiro, you're up! Good job, both of you![]()
Well Good sir! You take it for the 98% assist. I just gobbled up the crumbs of your answer![]()
