Well yeah, I got that. And I do think you're right. but he said somewhere that the event and answer had to do with lines 1 + 2. Then he said events. So now I have no idea what I'm supposed to be looking for.
(in any case, following your answer, I think Sapphire may be Tseng, or however you spell it.)
Well, I always said I was a hopeless literalist, right LN?
Along these lines, Diamond could be either Hojo or Rufus. Both wear white and are bidding for power.
Your spelling of Tseng is correct, Dragon Mage.
Yay! I feel so happy now!Your spelling of Tseng is correct, Dragon Mage.
Now all we need i musenji to come on and confirm. He was just on a minute ago but now he isn't. Great. Now we'll have to wait until tomorrow to se if Lost Number was correct.
I do refer to events. I mention the gem (Shinra operative) and what happens to them, therefore making an EVENT.
Sapphire is Tseng, and I think Diamond must be Rufus, as Hojo has rather left Shinra. And Palmer wears yellow/beige. And I LOVE it when i leave the thread up in arms at me.
No offence, BG! Thou art a master of what I prefer to call the "literalist" method of riddling.

Wow, all of a sudden. Yes, it's all a bloody metaphor, and every name represents a Shinra executive. Yes, topaz (palmer) was hit by a truck.
Ultimate was the president. The sword is obvious enough, the gap was the gap left in the Shinra organization.
Sapphire was Reeve, who gave up Cait Sith to help the heroes complete their mission.
Diamond was Rufus, who said that he would control the people with power as opposed to manipulation--and went down shortly after firing the Sister Ray at Diamond Weapon.
Ruby and Emerald were Scarlet and Heidegger, respectively. They died last. (Now you know why I said line 4 was always true--they always die last. I believe you can theoretically kill Ultimate after one of these two.)
Congrats, LN.
Does the rouge of tails know the jack of trades?
Thou knows me and the looter who holds me.
My old master gone, yet not entirely forgotten
Two in this world still seek him
They ask in vain, he met his end on a hill.
I carry on his fight, with one quarter power.
Its easy, but try it.

...Is it Reno?
here's wot ive got so far, can u correct me if i'm wrong LN!?
Does the rouge of tails know the jack of trades? --> i think the jack of trades may be cloud, as he refers to himself as a "jack of all trades" in the church. dunno wot that rouge is tho? maybe scarlet?
Thou knows me and the looter who holds me. --> i think this may be referring to when tseng kidnapped aerith
My old master gone, yet not entirely forgotten --> dunno
Two in this world still seek him
They ask in vain, he met his end on a hill.
I carry on his fight, with one quarter power. --> i think these last 3 lines are pretty self explanatorystill dunno wot it is tho!?
Why do you imprison your saviour?
Not Reno.
Cloud is the Jack of trades.
Its not.
The last 3 lines are literal.

The Buster Sword?
Yes
Does the rouge of tails know the jack of trades? A reference to FFIX, where the Buster Sword appears in an armour shop, and Zidane thinks he recognises it.
Thou knows me and the looter who holds me. Cloud is a looter, he took it from Zack.
My old master gone, yet not entirely forgotten Zack is dead, but people remember him
Two in this world still seek him His parents
They ask in vain, he met his end on a hill. He is dead
I carry on his fight, with one quarter power. 2 slots, one quarter of the maximum.

I should ask not of the past
But instead will look to the future
Though I may be down here
I have been asked to join them at the top
A challenge I propose
Come prepared, or we shall win
None taken.Originally Posted by Lost Number
I do get a fair share of riddles correct, but yours tend to stump me.
A buried anagram! That's more my speed.
OIETEJOH -> JOE TEIOH
Joe is a chocobo jockey and Teioh is his chocobo. He tends to be an opponent in higher class races, and Teioh always has better stats than whatever chocobo you are using (in fact Teioh's stats seem to be calculated based on your chocobo's). He's always the toughest opponent, but he's beatable with a well trained chocobo with high enough stats. He just doesn't push Teioh hard enough.
Now for the lines itself:
The past could refer to previous chocobo races and future could refer to the next chocobo race.
Cloud and co. meet Joe as they enter the races to escape from the surface prison. His chocobo joins at the starting line. The challenge is to beat him. Being prepared refers to the chocobo you need to race with. Grooming one takes time and effort.
