I'm still struggling with the first two. The "would he tell me this door leads to death?" riddle works if there are two doors - but add the 3rd and my head explodes. The "1/4 of mankind" question makes me wonder if the Bible stipulate whether Seth was born before Able's murder, whereas I suspect that "mosquitoes" (i.e. Malaria) probably is a better answer. Confused

Anyway, since Illyriad is a swords-and-sorcery setting, this one is an old (1,000+ years) riddle...


A wonderful warrior exists on earth. 
Two dumb creatures make him grow bright between them. 
Enemies use him against one another. 
His strength is fierce but a woman can tame him. 
He will meekly serve both men and women 
If they know the trick of looking after him 
And feeding him properly. 
He makes people happy. 
He makes their lives better. 
But if they let him grow proud 
This ungrateful friend soon turns against them.
