RUBY

[dramatispersonae]

Dark stone makes up the walls of this small cool room, and they tremble faintly as if afflicted with some terrible noise or nearby conflict.

I guess it's something that follows people, but also stays if you leave it? The fuck does that mean?

After war is an ending, peace… but-- ah. "Path," perhaps, as warpath; a path leads us home, and is needed to wander, and a path is strayed from.

Re: DISCUSSION

Path makes sense with the rest of it, but not so much on the first line. Unless that's like, shit, what's it called... figurative, yeah, that's it.

Re: DISCUSSION

[yoloath]

It would hardly be a riddle if the meaning were not couched in some sort of veil. But is there another answer you would give?

Re: DISCUSSION

[highflyin]

It's better than any answer I'd come up with, though the peace thing kinda makes me wonder... but Peace doesn't really fit in with the last line of it either.

[he hangs his head.]

Yes; unfortunately, peace is rarely a constant. Then I shall answer path for this riddle.
