Congratulations, I am now sealed within a miracle.
Of course, my congratulations go to the ones capable of such a thing.
Witches should be able to summon and control gods, not the other way around.
So bravo. My heartfelt feelings of applause go out to you, divine captors.
I’ve been truly shamed.

With that out of the way, may I pose a riddle to the rest of your captured?

I am a baldfaced liar, tinged with reddened shame.
You’ll never know me for who I am, for that is just my name.
Astutely bold, encased in gold, I am the one to blame.

I hail the northeast seas as home, but I have not forgotten,
The Swiss mountains I was born, from a time long dead and rotten.
If you’re lost, I’m sitting on the tip of your tongue, it’s…
Who am I?

For who solves it… I will return something that I have taken in this City that everyone needs.
Good luck.

[ ooc; Though I’d love for you to OOCly give it a try, if your character is smart enough to figure it out, PM me ahead of time and I’ll give the answer. I have no intention of giving a riddle too hard to solve when characters ICly can! ]

... ah. You have a sibling?

[ But she goes on to continue. ]

To become a witch in my world, you must have overwhelming sense of will and endurance. Eventually, you leave the plane of reality and ascend to the world of magic.

Boy I feel special.

A trash can.

[He doesn't know why someone would, but hey, it was a riddle]

That seems a bit ridiculous to take, don't you?
Riddles usually have a bit of a punch to them, come on.

...Is it alive?

I suppose you could say sentient beings. There are many non-humans here, which isn't too surprising. Still, those who run the place seem to be... human.
