To: Everyone
Subject: Introduction and a Riddle

It seems a popular way to test and get used to this journal is to do a proper introduction. I am Loki of Asgard. As might be surmised, I am newly arrived--though I find this place intriguing and curious so far. I think I'll have fun here.

I could go on, but instead, I have a riddle for you all.

My head was forged / by hammer's hit,
pricked by a point / and polished by files.
What comes before me, / I frequently eat.
With rings adorned / I doth strike,
hard against hard, / a hole in my back.
Shoved forth / I shall defend
my master's money / amidst the night.
Sometimes I spin / my skull backwards,
when my lord wants me / - the warden of his wealth -
to hand him the treasures / of hundreds of heroes
he killed in battle / to capture their gold.

I look forward to hearing your answers.

You're the kind of guy who sees himself as "brutally honest", huh.

[whose_son_am_i]

When it suits me to be.

[sos_pilot]

You're going to be a lot of fun, I can tell already.

[whose_son_am_i]

I'll take that as a compliment.

Got anymore riddles for me, Lowkey Loki? Cause my brain's still wired and ready to show off!

[whose_son_am_i]

If you like.

My home is not quiet but I am not loud.
The lord has meant us to journey together.
I am faster than he and sometimes stronger,
But he keeps on going for longer.
Sometimes I rest but he runs on.
For as long as I am alive I live in him.
If we part from one another
It is I who will die.

[ The answer, ladies and germs, is a fish in a river. But Della will not guess that. Because she hates fish. So she is totally and completely puzzled. Congrats, Loki. ]

[whose_son_am_i]

Would you like a different riddle?

[sos_pilot]

No way! Della Duck doesn't give up! I don't know the meaning of those words!

[whose_son_am_i]

If you say so, Ms. Duck. I await your guesses.
