Is it a group, like Black mages, Tantalus, or genomes. For some reason, those toy figurines of people that were being played with in Lindulbum come to mind
Possibly Zorn and Thorn?
Sigless
Nope. The answer is a thing, and is only found in two places. You meet Zorn and Thorn in many places. It's not a group either. Good guesses though. But please give your reasoning.
Pumice pieces?
[Line 1 & 2] There are only 2 Pumice pieces, right? Or am I wrong?
[Line 3] Not sure. Maybe has to do with Ozma, or synthesizing them?
[Line 4] One is hidden in a chocograph, making it hard to find, so here's where I'm starting to go wrong.
[Line 5] The Bible may have mentioned pumice, since (according to Wikipedia) it has been around since ancient Roman times.
[Line 6] Ostrich steak!!! ... Ahem... I mean pumice pieces.
Nope, but cheers for reasoning. I suggest you stay away from the Bible reference, as it isn't needed. If you knew the reference then you'd know the answer instantly, but it's probably quite hard to find it.
Think simply about the second line. Turn it into a question and ask yourself or someone else that question, chances are you'll get the answer then.
I think there are 3 pumice pieces.
Is it running shoes?
Not once, not thrice, but in between.
Found twice
Our loyal companions can be seen.
Again, you can only get 2
With friends by side, and running behind
Well you mentioned running
They really are not hard to find.
Its not too hard to find Hades or Tantarion
"The Bible only names me once!" they say,
Hades was leader of the Underworld. Tantarion is a book like the Bible. Hmmm.
But tell me, friends, what are they?
Dunno, but my best guess is running shoes.
Bugger.
I think you will all be justified in leaving threatening user notes after this, as I have made two mistakes in the past two riddles I've done. Yes. I'm ashamed. However, I have an amazing ability to correct things. Yey!

"Shakespeare only names us once!" they say,
But tell me, friends, what are they?
It probably doesn't help you much anyway, it's just for my own piece of mind
And nope. Not running shoes.
Done and done.Originally Posted by Pure Quin14
Shakespeare, eh? I'll have to read through all of his work then
It's not very obvious. I guarantee you'll miss it.
OMGZZZZ I FEL SO THRETND
Which way would you like to die?
It's impossible for me to die, but if I had to choose. Over-eating cake. *drools*
RIDDLE!
Okay, so I don't have a great guess, but this thread is dying. Let's think rational:
The last line reads "what are they?", this likely means that we are not after individual names, rather a species, race, type or the like.
- The answer is seen/found in two places
- The answer is a thing (not things)
A thing does not necessarily mean it's an inventory item, more like "it's not a living creature"
So it's a thing but it's still they, this fits with the "we're after the type, not a unique item" theory.
You say we are to think of the second line, well the second line doesn't say much in itself, it does say though that they are loyal companions, which could be a major key.
You say turn it into a question, well a question could be "Who are our loyal companions?". It makes me think of pets, dogs mostly, but they aren't really things...
"With friends by side, and running behind" this line is confusing me, not that it's badly worded, I just can't think of any possible context where this is true... Maybe in the escape from the Evil forest?
The only "things" I can come up with there is the Continental map... "Map" would sort of fit in with some lines:
[Line 1]: You get the continental map first, then the world map...
[Line 2]: They are loyal companions in that they are with you most of the time and very useful, always to your advantage
[Line 3]: Evil forest escape scene as mentioned above
[Line 4]: You can't avoid getting them, thus they are not hard to find
[Line 5]: No idea, but you said don't worry about this line so I won't
[Line 6]: Maps?
If that is wrong (which is probable), I would like to know if there are any word games in this riddle, and if I'm even going in somewhat the right direction :I
Things can be living creatures
Yarrrrh. :mog:Things can be living creatures
I'll guess dogs, the reasons can be puzzled together from my earlier posts. I'm not in the mood for typing out a full reasoning again ^_^
