And yet the menace of the years
finds and shall find me unafraid.
"Pacifism suits our little washed-out fox -
shot through the heart where blood freely flows.
When you fled the blue you fled your home
with only half of that heart, but that's how it goes.
Half of your name spells out the worst in us -
that's irony like the rust that mars you,
but you can rest your feathers here, all the same.
So Creo-don't or creo-do."
This riddle would have been written to steal Sinopa.
Pacifism suits our little washed-out fox - Healers are generally viewed as being pacifistic, or at least not the sort to start fights. Washed-out refers to her white color and the name Sinopa means "fox".
shot through the heart where blood freely flows. She has a red mark on her chest, generally where the heart is considered to be.
When you fled the blue you fled your home "The blue" refers to the sky, where angels are thought to come from. Sinopa is one of the angel children and they live in Diveen. She has left her home.
with only half of that heart, but that's how it goes. She left her imprint back in Diveen.
Half of your name spells out the worst in us - The first part of her name is "Sin"
that's irony like the rust that mars you, Another reference to the red mark, and the irony being that sin would have anything to do with angels.
but you can rest your feathers here, all the same. Angels are thought to have feathered wings.
So Creo-don't or creo-do. ... Sinopa is a genus of an extinct order of mammals called creodonts (Hahaha).
Personally, I feel when it comes to the angels, their appearances should generally not be mentioned in riddles. As you can see, it makes them pretty obvious... as does most references to their "angel blood", unless you can get really obscure.
