entry #2 (if q_rid_c_mid)
Sss, it came back to us, precious! Good, good. The game is not finished, no -- seven we promised and seven it gets, not one less. *It rubs its long hands together.* Where were we? Yes, yes... listen close now.
reply #3
Go on, then. Ask.
entry #3 (if q_rid_c_show)

entry #6 (if q_rid_c_win)
*It writhes on its rock, hissing and spitting.* It wins, it WINS! <CUSTOM6361>[q_rid_c_lose, q_rid_c_show, q_rid_c_win] of seven, curse it and crush it! Sss... a bargain is a bargain, precious, even in the dark. Take it then -- take the present and choke on it! *It flings your prize at you and hunches jealously over the rest of its little hoard.* The game is done. Come back when the week turns, if it dares. Gollum, gollum.
reply #10
A pleasure doing business, wretch. Until the week turns.
entry #7 (if q_rid_c_lose)
*It capers on its rock, hugging itself with glee.* It loses, it loses! Only <CUSTOM6361>[q_rid_c_lose, q_rid_c_show, q_rid_c_win] of seven, stupid lost thing! No present, no precious, nothing for it but the long cold walk back up into the nasty light. Gollum! *It settles back into the dark, still chuckling wetly.* Come back when the week turns and we plays again. We likes winning, yes we does, precious. We likes it very much.

entry #1 (if q_rid_c_week)
No, no, NO! We played already, precious, it knows we did. The riddles are all used up, gollum, all spent and swallowed. Come back when the week turns -- <CUSTOM6360>[q_rid_c_week], yes, we counted -- and we'll have seven new ones, oh yes. Sharp ones. Hard ones. *It curls around its rock and glares.* Go away now. Leave us alone.
reply #2
Keep your riddles, then. Farewell.
entry #0
*Something pale crouches on a rock at the water's edge, all bones and long fingers, with two great pale eyes like small moons.* What is it, precious? Is it soft? Is it juicy? Sss... no, no. It's a big one, a bold one, come down into our dark with its little light. *It creeps closer, whispering.* Does it know the old game, precious? Riddles! Seven riddles we asks it, and seven answers it gives us. Guess five of the seven rightly and it wins a present from our hoard, yes, a true present. Guess fewer... and it wins nothing at all, gollum, nothing but the dark. But only once while the week lasts -- the riddles must ripen, precious, they must ripen. Does it play? Does it, precious?
