Dialogue[edit]

- Riddle 1
- Thanks. That fight seems to have cleared my mind a bit, though boredom seems to have replaced my confusion. The prince used to enjoy my riddles. Would you like one?
- Sure! Give it to me.
- As you move forward, you leave this behind. Step carefully, for it is your person defined. What is it?
- Your shadow.
- No, that's not correct. You're close, though.
- Shoot. Let me try again.
- I give up. Good-bye.
- Your future.
- Your legacy.
- Well done! You are either wise beyond your years or an excellent guesser. I must try to remember some of my trickier puzzles. I'll have another for you tomorrow.
- I'll come back tomorrow, then.
- Your friendships.
- Never mind.
- I'm not interested.
- Riddle 2
- Another invigorating battle! For a moment, it seemed like the palace was filled with onlookers cheering us on. Did you perceive it? Never mind. Are you ready for another riddle?
- Bring it on.
- A glittering treasure sought by many. For the greedy, I am no good fit. I am made of gold and jewels, but my true value is where I sit. What am I?
- A scepter.
- A necklace.
- A chalice.
- A crown.
- Yes, a crown! I was always proud of that one. Come back tomorrow if you'd like to try your hand at a new riddle.
- See you tomorrow.
- Never mind.
- Riddle 3
- I recognize you now. Good to see you again. You know, I'm starting to suspect you're only fighting me for my riddles. Well, I can't complain—and I've got a good one for you
- I'm ready for it.
- Every success brings you closer to my grasp. Every failure is a chance you will never see me.
- Peace.
- Hmm, no. Good try.
- I want to give it another shot. (Back to the riddle.)
- I give up. Good-bye.
- Old age.
- Old age, indeed. Some rulers become arrogant after winning wars and gaining power. They forget they cannot conquer everything. I'll have another riddle for you tomorrow.
- I'll be back again.
- Heroism.
- Hmm, no. Good try.
- I want to give it another shot. (Back to the riddle.)
- I give up. Good-bye.
- The throne.
- Hmm, no. Good try.
- I want to give it another shot. (Back to the riddle.)
- I give up. Good-bye.
- Never mind.
- I'll try later.
- Riddle 4
- Hmm. I never told the prince this one, because he wouldn't appreciate it, but I think you have a sense of humor. It should be easy for anyone who knows me well.
- Go for it.
- He looks elegant in his fine feathers, but all he does is squawk. What a tranquil place the world would be if these birdies couldn't talk! What is he?
- A moa.
- No, but I like the way you think. Try again?
- Yes, please. (Back to the riddle.)
- I give up. Good-bye.
- A politician.
- No, but I like the way you think. Try again?
- Yes, please. (Back to the riddle.)
- I give up. Good-bye.
- A courtier.
- Courtiers! Gab, gab, gossip, babble. I admit, it does seem empty in here without them. I have one more riddle for you, but you'll have to wait until tomorrow. No sense rushing things.
- See you.
- A royal guard.
- No, but I like the way you think. Try again?
- Yes, please. (Back to the riddle.)
- I give up. Good-bye.
- Never mind.
- A moa.
- He looks elegant in his fine feathers, but all he does is squawk. What a tranquil place the world would be if these birdies couldn't talk! What is he?
- Not right now.
- Riddle 5
- One final riddle. The older I get, the more I find this one has meaning for me. Are you ready?
- I'm ready!
- I can be given but not traded or sold. I cannot be stolen or paid for in gold. The poor and the rich alike yearn for me, a gift still treasured when the giver is but a memory.
- Forgiveness.
- No, that's not the answer I'm looking for. Think harder.
- Let me start over..
- I give up. Good-bye.
- Kindness.
- Kindness, yes. When everything else fades, people will remember how kind you were. I have a feeling you understand that quite well. Good luck in your adventures, young one.
- Thank you. Good-bye.
- Scholarship.
- Beauty.
- Never mind.
- I'll come back later.
- Talking to him again after answering a riddle
- One riddle a day. Be patient. Your life isn't so very short, is it, that you can't wait a day? Come back tomorrow, and I will have something new for you.
- I'll see you tomorrow, then.
- Talking to him again after answering all five riddles
- You have bested me in combat and beaten all of my riddles. I don't have anything else to offer you, my friend.
- Farewell.

- It is possible to solve multiple riddles with several characters if they were parked there before the event, giving time to quickly switch between them.
- As of the 19th October, 2017 update, this contract does not seem to respawn in 30 or 60 mins. Respawn may be randomized for Legendary contracts.
