My alt complained about pain in the back So friendly me, sent him to see a quack The quack told him it’s the weight of his pack To cure his pain, he has to lighten his sack So please solve the riddle and claim the prize Free my poor, suffering alt from the treasures vice
Mystery Field Riddle We live in the field, we love the sun We don’t fly, slither, crawl or run No one gets hurt for us to feed But if you cut us, we do bleed We don’t have one heart, but three Find one with four and he brings luck to thee
Mystery Field Prize One of all and all for one – gathered from the field Crystal, silver and mundane*, their secret not revealed
Instructions Post the answer to the riddle in this thread and win the prize. It’s that simple. I hope it’s not too easy nor too hard, though in that case I can add more lines and give more hints.
*Due to the medical emergency of my alt I could no longer wait and search for a Cloth [?], which will therefore be absent in the price... Sorry!

Grass would certainly fit the first three lines, but I'm afraid it's not the correct answer (I'm also a bit glad that the first answer was not the solution). Common folks, you can do it... Just to be clear, everybody is entitlet to give more than one answer, so go Ant, don't give up .

Any eukaryot that has chloroplasts due to an ancestral endosymbiosis with cyanobacteriae... Just to be clear. I'm looking for a more specific answer than plant or even grass (after all grass comprises Mary-Jane, the green stuff in meadows as well as grain). Tough not to specific, Hamster would be specific enough, I don't need to know it's a Goldhamster named Huey.

Before I make it too easy by adding another rhyme to the riddle, I give some help. @snail: can't you hear the salad scream when a snail slithers towards it??? Thats TWO deal breakers it slithers and it eats salad. @ Sap, Milk and Juice Blood has a specific use Carrying oxygen its obligation Never taking a day of vacation Blood not always is colored red In Star Trek some purble bled* But what we are looking for is real Existing in the fields thats the deal *Thats poetic grammar
