O-O what?
tech replied lol
Golden ichor of long past - Refers to godâs blood/the ability to use magic is fading.
Do your best to make it last - A threat is attempting to end godâs blood(golden ichor)
Fire the furnace that burns still
even if you have to inherit its will - Discussed later
the sword of time pierces all - Likely refers to a harpe which Kronos used to kill Ouranos and thatâs why itâs sometimes called The Sword of Time.
brace yourself for its fall. - Preparation of the next line
Those who sow the wind,
shall reap the whirlwind - This is where I propose my theory
I think the riddleâs talking about Typhon, the father of Monsters made purely to âreign over mortals and immortalsâ. The first line could be referring to Typhon attempting to exterminate Golden ichor and itâs our job in AO to stop him or something idk. The second line could be explained by how Zeus was destined to die like his fathers before him and Typhon was supposed to kill him in his âwill,â but going back to harpes(The type of sickle/sword) Zeus used a harpe to slay Typhon in certain accounts of Greek mythology as well thus âthe sword of timeâ pierced Typhon or Zeusâ âwillâ. Since Zeus is long dead, itâll likely be us defeating Typhon to avoid âmortalsâ being ruled. The references to furnaces and whirlwinds likely have to do with Typhon being the god/giant/monster of Volcanic energy and Typhoons(Strong Wind).
heâs been speaking straight facts, I too am disappointed
i like this one over everything else tbh
wow, I think you solved it!
In the future, try to not reply to topics that have been dead for a long time
This topic is aight, but @Darkzoul11234 just make sure itâs relevant and adds to the conversation as long as you do
ok if you say so
typhon isnât even confirmed to exist, plus what monsters even exist in the Arcane universe
me and wissen, another riddlist, tried that one and the Sword of Hesphatesus a long time ago back in the first riddle and we got it turned down
also zeus didnât die from being struck down by typhon, he died from being overthrown by Prometheus
furnaces? hesphaestus is more associated with furnaces, being the god of fire and blacksmiths
zeus is more the god of strong wind, as he controls the skies and lightning and is the father of the universe
Iâm talking about Greek mythology dumbass
The first furnace was made in 1805, I donât think blacksmithing matters here
No he isnât, Typhon is the god of literal Typhoons which is the literal definition of strong wind.
Greek mythology is confirmed to exist
I donât think mine is right because of Techâs inconsistency when it comes to Greek mythology in AA but there are much better reasons such as âTyphon had never been mentioned before in AA, why now?â or âUnlikely because Typhon wouldnât have a large purpose especially if it isnât an unknown.â
now ainât this something
alternatively, though, tech mightâve liked this comment to also throw people off, soâŚ
he actually said that ichor is a word used in place of something else, ichor isnât actually relevant or at least i think
instead of ichor, we must find the actual word
could be anything really
- could be actual blood, like a lineage/ancestry
- could be a magic power that can somehow be transmitted
- doesnât even have to be something âtransmittedâ. Could just be something else that can fizzle out.
- long shot, but could be an ideology, even.
the skyâs the limit with this kind of stuff
most likely magical blood.
Nope.
huh wdym
huh?
