Why is it called granitefall mountains when it is full of iron?

Because granite production fell when iron was discovered?

- How come the moon rises in the east and sets in the west but the sun rises in the west and sets in the east?

Repeated from another post I made today because it just fits so well in this thread.

Why isn't Western Aradoth completely flat and barren from all the resource gathering done by the gifted?

[awdz]

What is unstable essence of blight, and if it's so unstable, why does it never degrade?

-Why can have wings that can support them in flight, yet their legs don't seem to support them for a simple jump?

Try flying with a biped disk attached...

Why does a flying disk detach itself and hoover above the water when you take a bath?

Why do the T1 to T4 mobs always want to tickle me (a lvl 100 dragon) when I am in their vicinity?

Why dont they just run away knowing that tickling me brings only death?

I recently went out hunting for Ice Ogres.

After traveling far across the ice to a structure named 'Ice Ogre Fortress' I found it full of pygmies and only two Ogres.

I went in search for more and did indeed find more... at Trandalar.

Someone told me that they don't migrate back south again until spring

It's not just you. Kesqui spends a lot of time telling the bronze golems not to do it, to think about their families, just keep walking ... oh, no, stop doing that, you're not even hitting me, it's embarrassing for us both here...

Why can I craft silver and gold bars, but not even a biped can make those bars into gold and silver coins for me? Surely one bar would make LOTS of coins! Much easier to convert Tier I resources into coin, as long as you're willing to combine this with that with the other until you can't stand looking at another tricut gem.

I can see my birdy-mask head scale (and can't wear my head armour while I'm wearing it)... but I can't see my light green lairshaping head scale on top of my bright red head.

The deer and sheep look tasty. Why can't I kill and eat them? They *must* be made of meat, and my teeth say I'm carnivorous.

If there is lots of food consumed in Istaria, why are there no toilets?

tell me about it - had a draggy quest (can't remember what level) that asked for them.....took me forever to get the needed amount at the fortress.....

How exactly does my dragon manage to gather fish, rocks, metal, water and absolutely anything else with exactly the same motion?

[awdz]

And how does banging a chicken over the head with a bucket get it to produce eggs? Or slamming a cow similarly get milk in the bucket?

[Shian]

A khutit cannot use breath weapons

... but for some reason can use galewind

[Malaquion]

Why do snowballs stored in an underground cavern full of magma never melt?

Why is it always raining in the Satyr Isles, yet the rain-gutter-things are always empty?

How does hitting the well with a bucket produce water?

Why do some beetles drop two carapaces?
