@Butterflee

Nice try.. but that's not it. I'm going to be honest and say this riddle will be very difficult. Mainly because the hints add up to a word that we don't widely use anymore.It's like an 'old' word.

That said.. if you see the word you'll know the modern word too. Let's see if someone can get it before I give hints. enlightened

@DarkWolf

Pls dont give hint, let me try this one hahah

Is it something like Looking glass?laugh

cause currently as looking at the laptop screen riddles and glass its basically the sillica and sand or we can refer to it like stone perhaps may be.And we often stand in front of the looking glass.

Your riddle forum thread is helping my brain to work hahha, thanks for it yeslaugh

Without much conviction I'll try glass.

lazyKatz May 28th, 2019

Can I change that to window

DarkWolf OP May 28th, 2019

@lazyKatz

You can, but I'm going to help you out here.

I thought other people might know the word, and it was mainly just missing out of my vocabulary. But apparently it's a very very old-english word, so that makes this riddle pretty much impossible. I'm sorry for that.

The right answer was counter-pane, meaning bedsheet.

That was a great riddle. The little grey cells as Poirot would say have really been working over time.
