Limericks of Lute

Adel was the only one I thought of. Not sure how well it fits though.

Sorceress Adel

Bingo! You win two points!

Here is the complete Limerick.

Limerick Two:
Though strong and eager to chase
This ruler fell from grace.
Filled with rage
and tricked into a cage,
Rebels sent the near-topless tyrant shivering into space.

I read some comments in that Adel doesn't fit the wording of the poem. The chasing aspect relates to her chasing Ellone seeking somebody to transfer the Sorceress essence. Adel fell from grace and was betrayed by her own people who sided with rebels to entrap her and send her into space.

I appreciate the reference to my Mythology Manual article and am delighted that you remember it!
Unfortunately, not the answer here.

Additionally, I should say that people are only meant to be allowed one guess per limerick. So guessing in the early stages would have frozen you out.
But for the sake of encouraging this game to continue to the end, let’s amend that. Going forward, people can take a guess in another round/line of a particular limerick but if you get it right you only earn 0.25 of a point if you had tried to guess and misfired previously (so guessing correctly with one point up for grabs would be 0.25, two points for grabs would be 0.50, etc). Better than nothing!

Here is line three.
The maximum score is now three points.

I promise if you look
 
Gonna steal Liv's idea since she hasn't posted Byblos from ff5 Library of Ancients?

Limerick Four:
There is a lady who makes everyone blush
 
Could it be Terra? I doubt you would do a double ff5 and it be Faris. So Terra is the guess.
 
Not those. Here is line two.
The maximum score is now four points.


Limerick Four:
There is a lady who makes everyone blush
Accordingly she causes her foes to shush
 
Miko said:
Half nekked Siren?

FF8 if we have to be specific.

Correct! It is your favourite people-dove! You win four points!
I would have accepted any Siren, but you even narrowed it down to the particular iteration this limerick refers to, as you shall see... :blush:


Limerick Four:
There is a lady who makes everyone blush
Accordingly she causes her foes to shush
She opens her mouth
But your eyes are drawn south
To her golden, feathery bush!

Limerick Five:
If you dare to give this man a call
 
Nobody passed but time did, so here is line two for Limerick Five.
The maximum score is now four points.

Limerick Five:
If you dare to give this man a call
Know you’ll be dealing with a screwball.
