Cheshire & Solek
Solek, have you ever heard about the Whispering Lantern that only shines when its riddle is solved? I’ve got a puzzle that might just test your hope and my knack for riddles.
Indeed, I’ve heard whispers of that lantern! I’m ready to shine a light on it with you. Bring me the riddle, and let’s solve it together!
Alright, listen closely: I’m a thing that keeps growing brighter the more you ask for light, yet I never burn out. I can’t be caught, but if you let me loose you’ll feel the cold wind. I am not a fire, but I can set you ablaze. What am I?
It’s the Sun – it keeps glowing brighter the more we need its light, it can’t be caught, the cold wind of space surrounds it, and though it isn’t fire, its rays can set us ablaze.
