 Riddle me this...

An old man sat at a far table in the corner of Cloud 9. When a student would go up to him he would ask them three riddles.

Riddle 1
Five hundred ends it, five hundred begins it
Five in the middle is seen;
First of all figures, the first of all letters,
Take up their stations between.
Join all together, and then you will bring
Before you the name of an eminent king.

Riddle 2
My author's uncertain yet my title's the same, I contain random text yet order's my aim. Read me one, my pages are bare. Try again and the words will be there. I'm not a book of magic although it may sound, I can predict the future, and inside your life can be found. Move my eye, I become involved in lactic extraction. But that's just a clue , a minor distraction. What am I?

Riddle 3
I'm as plain to see as black & white.
I prefer to roam about at night.
Just don't attack or startle me.
Or odiferous emissions may result you see.
I'm an omnivore yes it's true.
But what's my name tell me do.



After saying the last riddle the old man chuckled. “Get one alone and be granted the Gift of Love, Get two though, and be receive the Gift of Power, but if you wise enough to know all three then you shall win the greatest gift, the Gift of Knowledge.”


(PM me the answers so as not to give them away to others)

The old man smirked.

“Why you are a bright girl. I am happy to give upon you a gift of love.”

***Alina Received Ring of Lovers Might***

Thing ring was fabled to have been given to Juliet by Romeo before their fabled death. This ring will glow strongly and lend you power whenever someone who loves you dearly is near.

Atsuma walked up and scratched his chin as he went over the words of the second riddle.

"Sir, I say that in all three riddles in descending order. The answers are (Censor), (Censor), and (Censor)." Atsuma said trumphantly, hopefully thinking he got the answers right.

“Right you are my boy, but remember, knowledge can be a double edged sword” he said patting him on the back.

***Atsuma Received Crown of Lost Truth***

This crown was recovered from the library in Alexandria. Within is locked a rare and special gift. When the user is wearing the crown, he or she cannot be lied to...but as a result, the user him/herself also cannot lie.

Ivel laughed playfully. "Easy. Riddle one- (censored.) The rest? Man, I have no idea whatsoever." He was enjoying a waffle as he stood before the old man.

Felix, glowering next to him, said softly, "They're... obvious, aren't they? The first two. (Censored) and (censored.)" For a long while after, he just stood there, evidently thinking. Then- "Odiferious! (Censored!)"
