Help! Parable or Riddle needed (mercy, justice, love, truth)
Okay, my GLP friends.

I am so close to having a first draft finished on another metaphysical book for young people, but I am asking for ideas about a riddle that I need.

Premise: In order to get to the Key, the characters need to decipher a parable or a riddle that combines four things:

Justice, mercy, truth, and love

These can be color-coded: red, blue, gold and white(?)

Or jewel coded: ruby, sapphire, gold, and diamond

It can also be square, circle, rectangle, and triangle.
Any combination that they must solve that shows who they all relate to the truth.
But somehow the answer needs to show that they are all necessary to find the truth.

Any type of parable or riddle idea is so awesome.

The key will be in one of them or in the answer.

Thank you for any ideas at all!!!!!

Any ideas about what the combination of the four elements would be? Do three of them make the fourth?
Is there some combination that makes sense?

Somehow, I am trying to get them to pick one thing that the others all point to. So when they solve the puzzle or riddle, they will know which one to pick and the key will be found inside. Something like that.

Re: Help! Parable or Riddle needed (mercy, justice, love, truth)
ya gots yer 4 qualities
so each is a facet
Say on a pyramid or a gem
or a house that is a pyramid in another dimension
(pyre a mid / in the midst of fire)

mercy/ forgive someone not worthy of forgiveness
justice/ to punish someone...or to remedy in-justice
love/ to love when hated or to love the unlovable
truth/ to see not what is presented, but what lies beneath
******************************

so the riddle can be enscribed around each entrance
or
needed to leaned after entering

you can throw time into the mix, so only one entrance through differing times or realities

but, as a whole, it is a four-sided pry(e)-amid with four en(trances)

and you can not "spell" pyreamid without "ami"(in french), my friend!

We don't play well with others, we are brash, outlandish and cunning. let us do what we do best; let us be Americans.

Any ideas about how to intersect those so that there is one answer to it all. I would actually like for truth to be the final answer. (Gold)

OH lands, time is a huge part of this book. And the idea of an entrance is fantastic. I am writing this one down also. Thank you!!!!! This one is going into the notes--so far all these ideas are so good. I am goign to try to intersect them. Wonderful. Thank you!
Part of the story is about how time is an illusion--so I can weave this in.
