[QUOTE="Stormonu, post: 5822625, member: 52734"] [B]Wandering - The Giant's Riddle [/B] A nameless Storm Giant wanders the wilderness (Hexes 15.07 to 09.10 and to 03.08), accosting all he meets with a wager. For 10 gold, he will give a listener 3 chances to guess his riddle - about an item that he has crafted (and carrying with him in a chest). Those who win the wager win the item. The Giant changes his riddle for each new item he crafts, which is easily 20-100 times the wager fee. It generally takes him between a week and a month to craft a new item. The Storm Giant makes regular visits to Uncle Bertie's Trading Post and KFE, where he gets most of his wagers. He knows of, and refuses to deal with Abdul and his winery. An example riddle: "Seabound stone of ivory In silver chains of three and three The proud prize of Neptune Taken, not given, by the hand of man To adorn the heart of lady's vanity." Answer (and prize), a pearl necklace. Hooks - Where is the giant's real home? - Why does he engage in a game of riddles for his items? [/QUOTE]
