Nope for your guesses. :no:

But, guess what (ironic, isn't it?): Player is correct as the second word. What is the first word then? Reread the hints and you'll figure out soon enough. ;) And, Darmani, you're thinking in the right way of a part of the first word.


#2: 1st word, you must stick on pronoucing as well to find the way to create the word.
#4: First word is related to what light can do.
#6: Dungeon relation is about troglodites.
#9: The word ANCIENT, also "guessed" before, has something to do with the first word.
#10: "light enables us to..."
#11: The first word lies somewhere, deep in the blue.
#12: The word ANCIENT is related to the second paragraph.

So player is the second word. Hmmm! :idea:

Not quite. ;) Ok, I'll be good an help you, Hodgy. :hug:

Those guesses, you see? The first word is about what makes them different from each other, appart their features at all, or even when there's two players with a same faction.

Now, read the last hints I listed and you'll find out the answer. :proud:

It's very old
Can be very cold
It's very wise
Can be, also, unwise
Although just the first part of me
Can help you continue your path.
Opposing, Opponent or Enemy Player?

Opposing Player is usually hidden in the Fog of War (deep in the Blue) and warfare has been going on since time immemorial (related to Ancient). Opposing Player can also be wise or unwise. I know these are a long-shot but worth a try. :)

Huhuhu....:no:

Deep in the blue - blue is meant to be blue indeed. ;)
Ancient - it's meant to word formation. First word has 2 syllabes as I told before. :D

Come on, it's nearly finishing.

I don't want to make the game stuck for too long in a riddle, so I'll post the answer so someone can show us a new riddle. :)

So, here's the explanation:

The eagle is so clever
Always watching us from high above
All creatures can do it
but that one which in dungeons live.
I ask thee, what's this about? What we can do?


This paragraph is about seeing. Troglodites cannot see, so what can we do? See.

It's very old
Can be very cold
It's very wise
Can be, also, unwise
Although just the first part of me
Can help you continue your path.

Ancient doesn't mean it's always wise. For the hints, I've told the first word had two syllabes and the ANCIENT was rightly "guessed". The two last lines are talking about this: AN-CIENT. The first part of it can help guessing the next word. If you stick See with AN, you have seean. I've also mentioned that it was about pronounciation and not writing at all. Which words you know that are pronounced like that? CYAN.

I can go whenever I want
conquest all regions
but if I find an equal
blood and fights will happen between legions
Although I could leave anytime I wanted
I can go back and find my traces wherever I wandered

Player is free to go anywhere, fight each other and, whenever you want to leave, you can save and load a game, continuing from where you stopped, having yet what you've conquered and flagged.

Answer is: Cyan Player. ;) I hope you guys enjoyed trying to figure it out. :D

Colors of HoMM II: Blue, Red, Green, Purple, Orange, Yellow. Hmmm....I don't see a Cyan in there, and you said it was in every Heroes game...

(And, if my memory serves me well, Heroes III had all of the above plus Black and Teal. Still no Cyan, though Teal is similar.)

Anyway, I'll post a riddle:

Neglected thanks from a friend
For might is elevated over magic
Yet still you keep it till your end
Even then, this kindness can move the dead

Take heart in our gift against a crushing swarm
Take heart in our gift when troops are by sadness torn
Take heart in our gift when generals are newly sworn
Yet not when there is little hope to see the morn'


Concerns Heroes II.

:rolleyes: Bwaahahahah!

That was the hardest and worst-wrong riddle ever then! :D I'm sorry I made people pass through it. Teal, that's right, teal, for most of heroes games I've meant, not them all.... :)

Nooooooooo! What have I done! Sorry, people, sorry! :beg: Will you all forgive me (look at the avatar)? :please: :beg: It was really a misunderstanding of mine. I appologize.

*recovering brain damage all of a sudden*
SO! This riddle then:

I have a difficulty understanding certain verbal combinations. I can't understand what take heart means. What is it? :?

Okay! I was gonna guess all the colors in my "Player" guesses but my list was already too long.

I think maybe the color Teal is called Cyan in some languages. Anyhow, good try. :-D

The term "take heart" means to to gain courage or confidence.
