    The statue of the Past Regent Cid in Lindblum?
    I'm pretty sure he was Cid VII.

    I think that's Cid Fabool VIII, but nope.

    Is it the Blue Narciss? There's a card of it and Cid made it... I think.

    Nope, it's not any card or its motif.

    Found by the nimrod that arrived
    In home of minds which us contrived

    We've established that is related to Lindblum. Now, a "nimrod that arrived" there, what does that suggest? Does it ring any bells?

    Does this have anything to do with "Hunter's Gate" in Lindblum? I keep thinking that the nimrod that arrived, nimrod = hunter, Hunter's Gate = relating to hunters arriving through that gate rather than it just being a gate =p
    I'll figure it out later...

    Hey, there's nothing wrong with that. I think this riddle has lived longer than it should, and pray your answer is right.

    Not to say I don't enjoy your riddles Rantz.

    Ah its not an answer :P it's just merely a guess as to what the hunter refers too. He mentions that the answer is multiple so the gate itself isn't the answer =p I'm just trying to find a basis on where to be looking =p
    I'll figure it out later...

    I knew I could count on you to make a breakthrough! Yeah, the nimrod that arrived in Lindblum would naturally arrive through the Hunter's Gate! That's as far as the relevance of the "nimrod" goes. As I've mentioned a few times, the second part of the riddle is basically directions to the answer. Hunter's Gate is the start! Gogogogo

    Edit: yeah Guardian I agree this riddle has been more long-lived than it should haha.

    Ok, I've got it!

    Come to us, in times of leisure - Come to us when you aren't busy, when you have time to wander around

    Don't be blinded by the treasure - Treasure is there in the room too

    Maximising your potential - Helps you expand your skills in some way

    thrice from seven, quite sequential. - There are 3, starting from 7 to 9

    Found by the nimrod that arrived - Hunter's Gate

    In home of minds which us contrived - Where they were created

    then headed linearly forth - Head straight forth to the house!

    four times, though still far from the north. - Unsure about this. I think it has something to do with the 4 districts

    Anyway the answers are!!!!

    THE CARD COLLECTOR VOL's

    There are 3 in total, with the first one (Number 7) being found in Card Freak Gon's house on the bookshelf, along with 2 treasure chests being the only visible items.

    Rantz said it had a link between Tetra and Cid, - Whether Cid actually created these is to remain a mystery, however, Cid's last name is Fabool, therefore the link is shown.


    = Card Collector No. 7 =

    Omg Tiffie Trust you to come in and work out the answer in an hour. I just checked back and this riddle has been going for over a year! A year! :laugh:

    Yeah, the answer is the Card Collector's series. Volume 7, 8 and 9 can be found in Card Freak Gon's bookshelf each at a different point in the game. You got the reasoning pretty much all down; the last line is the last piece of the "directions" to the answer: You start at the Hunter's Gate, and head forth four times. "Still far from the north" refers to the fact that what's here referred to as "forth" is often called north in descriptions and such, so you'd be walking to "the north" but, being in Lindblum, you'd still be in the southernmost part of the world.

    Hehe Quin will be pissed! Or maybe relieved. :P Make us a nice riddle, anyway, Tiff!

    You know I read that book several times and it never occurred to me. Goddammit.

    Great riddle Rantz. And well done MsTiffie, swooping in and getting the answer like that.

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