Is Kyle secretly a conduit for the Rainbow Serpent or something? Apparently one legend about it mentions it being able to enchant bodies of water so that any woman who wades in became pregnant. Sounds awfully similar to Kyle impregnating any woman who sleeps with him... you know, if bodily fluids count as small bodies of water.
Canon pls
Yay! Now to argue that thus, by interfering with Kyle's love life, Ra's shenanigans are pissing of the Rainbow Serpent!

I just realized that distortions are essentially false-vacuum metastability events that are automatically limited by Ciro's design of the universe.
I am so tempted to make that canon.

I don't even

EVENTUALLY WE WILL GET THIS PLOT DONE
I SWEAR IT

((4th wall is a thing, making a riddle that relies on meta gaming is bad. That being said, the metaphor breaks - the internet is not a country with no land. There is no ruler, no laws, not even a sense of nationality, the internet has no characteristics of a country - by that stretch, a talk via telephone, a family, or any group of people is a country. The markets are not caravanless either, as stuff still gets moved via some means to the trader from the producer and from the trader to the buyer. these two metaphors clearly do not apply to the internet - this is why you don't make up riddles on the spot. Because some metaphors are too much of a stretch. You use them because they sound nice, but they simply do not apply))
((...except Cyrielle guessed it without the fourth wall. Camille came to the same conclusion anyway. Argue about the riddle all you want, but it wasn't MADE for you to guess, it was made to stump gods.

I'm stressed and tired -mocks coming up in a few weeks don'tcha know- as it is, so I'm holding the plot until tomorrow. G'night gents.))
The sphinx turns her nose up at it.

The sphinx staunchly ignores her. Mainly Kyle, but her too.
((This kids is why I looked up half of mine. And then promptly made one up when they were too obvious.))

Cyrielle and Hai level up. 5 points for Cyrielle, 1 for Hai.
Camille and Kyle gain 40xp, 60 from next level.
Yuri gains 10xp, 90 from next level.
Will gains 10xp, 90 from next level.

((Akroma, you clearly would have guessed just about every damn riddle I would have thrown out. At least this one managed to survive for longer than one reply.

Also, Hain said nothing, Cyrielle got the answer. Unless you WANT a TPK.))

47721
The Sphinx makes a movement of pretending to eat Kyle. She is very serious.

((Akroma, it was the Internet. Emp and Twi got it.))

47722
"NO!"
The sphinx hisses.
"You have guessed the one riddle even the gods do not get- gods know not what a computer is, most of the time. Very well then."

She moved to reveal a door.
"I am bound by the Nile to let the victorious through. Do not tempt me."

47723
"..am I to take it that these...forums are on the Internet? If so..."
The sphinx grumbles.
"You are correct."

47724
"Wrong, watchmaker."
The Sphinx laughs and turns to Hain.
"You're the last hope."


((I'm tempted to give you a hint.))

47725
((Well, you've all seen half the ones I can pull. If it's any consolation, the answer to this one is obvious when you think about it.))
"An area of land a pantheon has claimed and clearly have been born from."

47726
"Sadly, Thoth's the one who knows the laws, not us. There could be a loophole, but I don't know."

"...you already gave your answer, lecher. I want to know what the fingerling and the watchmaker say."
((Not a map.))

47727
((That's because I literally pulled it out of my sugar-high, sleep-deprived mind. If it's crap, sleep-deprived me takes full responsibility.))
The Sphinx licks her lips.
"What? Tongue-tied?"

47728
"And I suppose getting any of the deities there involved here is disallowed then?"
"I would suppose so."

47729
The Sphinx growls, annoyed.
"Fine. Then I shall give you your third one.

I am everywhere, and all feel my presence yet I am intangible. I am a library with no books, a country with no land, a messenger with no feet, a market with no caravans.

What am I?"

47730
((To be fair, pretty damn hard to come up with an original riddle when everything under the sun has one somewhere.))
"I am loved more than life, yet feared more than death. I am wanted by those who have everything, and desired by those contented. All men are born with me, and all men die with me. What am I?"


Horus shakes his head.
"Technically, Australia belongs to no pantheon. The various gods there don't actually have one formed."
