Reposting the riddle with the line meanings that have been guessed:



“The Tango Riddle”

Deserved for breathing life back in, (Shiva)
Stop a giant mastered from within. (Proud Clod)

Cause beginning of life to come to an end, (Ifrit)
Life’s story told in a place to mend.

Responding with dance is slightly strange, (Choco/Mog)
Do spaceship watchers ever change? (people in Rocket Town)

When father’s daughter takes the crown, (Leviathan)
Overlooking two of nine’s hometown. (Mt. Nibel)

Over an unwelcome touch a kind of storm, (Alexander)
Use surer feet or land deformed.

From Alpha to Omega the elements combined,
With a sidewards glance should your path unwind.
Some research done and one more glance,
Just exactly who would love this chance?

lol thanks, i might have to go play the whole of ffVII again in less than 60hours, so i can get this riddle lol, its grown on me and im far too stubborn lol

[PhoenixAsh]

Okay, I'm gonna say now that there are no more summons to be worked out. That said, I think hplvr may be on to something with some of his reasoning.

[Leonheart188]

Life’s story told in a place to mend.

all we need is this to complete the seperate lines, so everyone work out this lol

[f f freak]

Life’s story told in a place to mend.

Could this line refer to the Northern Crater. The whole mending thing makes me think of the Lifestream having to mend the damage done by Jenova which is the Northern Crater I believe.

Sorry if this has been guessed before.

"Life’s story told in a place to mend"

the Inn at Nibelheim? Because Cloud tells them all what happened, and an Inn is a place to mend....

this is one heck of a riddle!

[PhoenixAsh]

Actually Leonheart "Use surer feet or land deformed" has yet to be solved explicitly

riallews I'm gonna give you it, as I'm pretty sure you got the answer, but said the wrong place. The story told is indeed set in Nibelheim, but the inn it is told in is actually in Kalm

[riallews]

aha! ty for that lol - been four years since i last played :P

[DeStyle]

Hmm, Proud Clod doesn't fit the rest of the structure of the riddle
so I guess there's more to him (first line = summon, second line =
location, exept for Proud Clod, asuming that "use surer feet or land
deformed" points at a location too).

"From Alpha to Omega the elements combined" could refer to the
summons once again (since there's probably a summon for each
element). I'm thinking Alpha to Omega could be translated as the
beginning and end. From the beginning to the end the elements combined, still doesn't ring a bell.

P.S. 1> Wait a minute, didn't Tango refer to the dance part of the
riddle? Chocobos ain't doing the tango or somethign.

P.S. 2> Small point of critique, on this moment there's some nasty
things in your riddle. Example:

"Responding with dance is slightly strange,
Do spaceship watchers ever change?"

You made it look like the spaceship watchers directly relate to the
dance, as in spaceship watchers are the ones dancing. I'm sure
they're related but you posted two parts as one sentence, sugesting
a direct relationship between the parts.

who's to say there isn't a link? now what relates the chocobo dance to the people of rocket town . . .

All the people of Rocket Town are really Chocobo's!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!??????????????

[Leonheart188]

lol i agree with ff freak, that is the relationship, and palmer goes there to eats them lol, anyway, tnx for reminding me phoenix, i forgot about that one, so is the 4th line of riddle kalm? i thought that but i thought someone else said it, so i diddnt lol, mmmm and isnt the tango of tears, a losing race theme, so has it got something to do with losing, and i jsut thought of this randomly, is huge materia in this somewhere? jsut i guess, i just remembered it so i thought id mention it hehe

DeStyle, don't read too much into Proud Clod not being a location, you're thinking along the right lines with a lot of things though The title is not referring to the dance mentioned in the main riddle.

Regarding your critique. I'm not gonna argue with it if you don't like it as its a fair comment. I intentionally wrote it to appear like the lines were linked to throw people off the real solutions. I wrote them on separate lines to show where the actual separations were. That said, my structuring isn't arbitrary

EDIT: Sorry Leonheart, you're not on the right lines.
