*tugs on Greg's line*

No no no, we're all tied together in misery and success!

*peers around curiously*

Besides... solving this alone hasn't been anywhere near half as fun and satisfying as commiserating with you all :blushing:

And to think, I actually had planned on having this solved before I went to the party tonight, haha, silly me.

I have tried this since the beginning...I don't think I missed any possible guesses here, but who knows. I just feel like it fits nicely, obviously you do as well.

Yes, if only the "He" was placed elsewhere in the sentence, then we would know...

I thought that it was Satan, and that Dark was one of the names given... Prince of Darkness, Prince of Demons, Prince of Pain... that was a dead end too though.

I think I've tried every possible synonym there is for satan...

After looking through the first part of the Book of Genesis several times, I don't think it deals with the trinity... unless, again, I missed something.
 
  • #1,612
Don't forget I think Charon and Nosferatu were used?... Dvorak?
 
  • #1,613
I have a recurring problem with this riddle, when pursuing one clue I forget to incorporate another...
