This is not my LatVenture, part two That's is still in the works, not yet through It's a Connections Puzzle, Not an Idiomuzzle, And so these connections, guess who? (Where, What, When, How, Why Might equally apply but they didn't rhyme and I didn't have time.) What links, first, riddle me this: A creature you'd not want to kiss, (Well, unless you were mad, Which would be very bad Anyway, it's likely you'd miss) Secondly, a majestic beast On you, it'd be willing to feast It's found often in threes (Or ones and twos, if it please- s you, but that's ancient, at least) Thirdly, a strange sort of equine It's more of a chimera, I'd opine At least the way it's said to look By most ancient books, And on bread and plum cake it'll dine. Fourth, it's rather hard to say I'm afraid if I try, I'll give it away Suffice to say beast it's got none, But it's got plenty good fun, And it tames the rest when it's at play. | ||

Does the third have a horn? Is it perhaps a unicorn? Or perchance it might have wings? A pegasus, or similar thing? | ||

The third's a unicorn, it's so A single horn from its head grows I doubt it has wings, Though one of the other things Is winged, I'll allow you to know. | ||

Your first link does remind me more Of Harry Potter, Book no. 4. The riddle in the maze, it was... And "spider" was the answer. Does this answer match with your first link? Or something else must of I think? | ||

Your thoughts take you in the right vein For in Goblet of Fire, that train Of thought should direct you, Though spider's a "no", too, What other creatures in that book were first named? | ||

For the second, it seems the beast might be a dragon enjoying the feast | ||

Is the first beast maybe the dragon? There's one in the Goblet of Fire, I reckon. | ||

Let me check my HP books for that special dragon's looks. Is it the one Harry has to fight? The Hungarian Horntail who's not so bright? | ||

The only colored dragon I Can think of is the Chinese Green. So opposite, I would surmise, Is the red on wheel seen? And a red dragon in the fog - Should we focus now on Smaug? | ||

Let me check my HP books for that special dragon's looks. Is it the one Harry has to fight? The Hungarian Horntail who's not so bright? The dragon's one of those four, But not the Horntail, to settle the score I suggest you now look At the three left in the book And see what colours they are. One of them, as you will see, Is the wrong colour for its (semi)country. | ||

One of the dragons that can be seen is definitely a Welsh Green. Is it him who should be red? Or is this guess quite bad? | ||

And I was off upon the nationality Of the green dragon (that's in actuality.) And you did miss my post, unless we crossed, So can you make sure it does not get lost? | ||

You iz a clevur kitteh, For you know, as you did see The Common Welsh Green In Wales, red is seen So JKR did not research, clearly. The first beast, dragon of Wales, The second's not got any scales Unicorn's third, we said And likes plum cake and bread Fourth's not a beast...where could they be? | ||

The Welsh dragon is red indeed (As is Chinese Fireball, but that's OTWT) The red dragon in fog Is not Smaug, Continue thinking of Wales, you will see. And I was off upon the nationality Of the green dragon (that's in actuality.) And you did miss my post, unless we crossed, So can you make sure it does not get lost? Sorry Balin, it's true we crossed Here it is, so it won't get lost. =) | ||

Is either 2 or 4 an ancient Beast, or are they current? Recent? | ||

Two is a beast you'll still see, Quite wild and savage when free Four is not a beast, No, not in the least But both were 'round, too, in antiquity. | ||

Imporant is Wales's geography? And what on the map we see? Is it somehow relevant that it's west of England? And what about dear Charles, the prince? Could we maybe have some hints? | ||

Wales is important for geography, As is a map, most definitely, England is relevant, quite Prince Charles, OTRT-ness is in sight. LTPF-ers geography-wise, What unicorn eats plum cake for a prize? | ||

Is a certain Alice relevant who lives in funny Wonderland? Alice - not really, no Although there's "ish" in there, so Where else can this Unicorn with its noble companion Be found wand'ring around, don't you know? (Wikipedia and Google are friends And may swiftly bring this puzzle to end...) | ||

looks like you win, Doriana kitteh They are on the coat of arms of the UK But though on the shield you find lions, Ireland's harp, there's no dragon, Scotland's unicorn's a supporter, you see :-) The dragon's absence is notable Wales' attachment to England? Probable... There's four quarters, so what Is Wales' dragon, if not Present on the coat of arms royal? It seems that the lion rampant, in Scotland Is an extra lion, I'd not thought ere I posted So the lions times three, Though England's, you see Are really times six, as Wales' dragon's aborted. With that, the puzzle's now in the boiler, And I've now posted the ***SPOILER***. |
