Very Good Edge - you are correct on all parts!

Your turn!

1) Beethoven wrote an ode for this person.
2) They are hidden, but not bent down.
3) Possibly from the Valley.

1 & 3 possibly mean something to me, but I can't make anything of 2. (You clever puzzle people leave me way behind.)

Oooohh, now I get it -- Edge, you are so clever.

It's moi!
1) "Ode to Joy"
2) Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon
3) lilies of the valley

Excellent job, Edge!
And Dragonlily---beautifully done.
I am sure Edge will be here shortly to verify your deduction!
Start thinking of some clues.

Post by **Dragonlily** » Thu Apr 14, 2005 11:38 am

1) comes from a book where he never finds a home
2) escapes lions by staying under their line of sight
3) dwells in the Source

Hmmm.....
Although I cannot say for sure about 1, since I never read Neverness, but doesn't Danlo continually wander?
2.......stays out of dANdeLION's view by being lo(w).
3.....ummmm......Mallory's?.......Neverness?........Ahira's Hangar?

keep working at it, ur-bane

Post by **ur-bane** » Tue Apr 19, 2005 6:13 pm

Is it Edge??
I am stump-ed here. You are too clever with your clues for me this time .
I humbly submit to perhaps another hint?:Help:

Post by **duchess of malfi** » Tue Apr 19, 2005 9:35 pm

Yes, please give another hint. I am completely stumped as well -- you are very clever with this one!

Post by **Dragonlily** » Wed Apr 20, 2005 1:30 am

Well ... actually ... Edge is still working on it. He doesn't want any hints... at least not yet.

It isn't cleverness, it's just a weird associative mind. No one else's works quite like mine.

Is it Mouseglove?

If not, then bring on the hints!

Post by **Dragonlily** » Thu Apr 21, 2005 1:23 am

OK, hint. My preferred puzzle type is puns -- stretched ones.

Post by **Edge** » Thu Apr 21, 2005 4:18 am

In that case...

Try each clue at a time.

What reasoning are you doing with them?

the Seareach Giants are Unhomed, so I'm thinking someone Giantish

Dragonlily wrote:2) escapes lions by staying under their line of sight

Lions might be a red herring, but being understone would definitely be out of the line of sight of them. Especially if they were firelions... hmm.

Dragonlily wrote:3) dwells in the Source

I'm honestly stumped by this clue, but I'm going to guess Seafoam Understone.

Dragonlily, tell me how I'm wrong.

Ur-bane guessed the right person but he didn't get there by following my thinking. The person is Danlo.

1) comes from a book where he never finds a home

Took his name from NEVERNESS, or "never nes(t)"

2) escapes lions by staying under their line of sight

Daniel in the lion's den, keeping a lo(w) profile.

3) dwells in the Source

Lives in Albuquerque, from whence cometh SRD and TCTC, the Source of Kevin's Watch.

I couldn't possibly expect anyone to figure this out. Go for it, Ur-bane.

So it wasn't Mr Wickham.

Post by **ur-bane** » Tue Apr 26, 2005 8:51 am

Ahhh...I was close in some ways, though.
So it is my turn

....I will be back in a little while with some clues.

Post by **Khat** » Mon May 30, 2005 3:43 am

One month has gone by Ur-bane - what do you mean by "a little while?"

Post by **ur-bane** » Mon May 30, 2005 11:38 am

Sorry about that.

OK. Here you go:
