Riddle 2:

Old yet spry,
not human am I.
Yet I've a mind
of a special kind.
I make my choice,
then raise my voice.
In time of need
my warnings heed.
For a Gryffindor bold
a secret I hold.

What am I?

Riddle 4:

With a shadow & a view,
Use me to rekindle this anew,
Whether it be light or dark,
Every silver thread leaves its mark,
Etched with these ancient runes,
You may reflect on past moons.
What am I?

Riddle 5:

Unlikely pairing, bold and daring, noble air and land connect.
In my presence, show me reverence. This I expect.
Callous regard offends and often ends in failed attempt.
Eek, whine, aquiline ravages all contempt.
Careful incline yields, reward sublime reveals
Favor granted, tread planted, swiftly lifting down.
Nonsense all says you? Horsefeathers, bunk, and rubbish?
No, nay, ‘tis true and hooked regal nail upholds my wish.
What am I?

Riddle 6:

I am small yet great;
positive, but fond of negatives.
Petrified but fearless,
I can be a pain in the rear....
yet not in the end.

Many hands make light work
But my work is never-ending
Time and again I tell you what you need to know
But I don’t tell you what I should

Riddle 8:

I have a piece of the imperishable in me, the golden circle of life;
I have done everything I can, as water, light, key or knife;
I was once torn asunder, by a sister's spell;
But was healed by a gift of death, and so all is well.

Riddle 9:

A need so great, I lie in wait.
Gifted to those truly of me.
I came at a time that saved his love.
When sinister ink was vanquished
And winged tears brought happy tears.

Hidden I became from evil snakes
To wait for that shimmery sign.
Gifted again to one truly of me.
A soul of great import,
Thought to be of naught,
Used me to show them what’s inside
Is the greatest of all.

Juno seed rears its pearly head
Beautiful, aromatic, without care can die
My bountiful reflection you read
You called me back, now my soul can lie
