In the fray, King Red did say, I order the onslaught.
A final fight, of tempered might, to settle this old dispute,
Men cried for their holy king, who donned his armored suit.
Once he showed his deep red robe, he fought the enemy,
Nay other men, nor two nor three, could cause any entropy.

Fruit Friends Riddle
If you and a friend have the same amount of apples, how many does she need to give you in order to have 10 more apples than her?
Hint:
She will always need to give you 5 apples. You both need at least 5 apples to begin with, but apart from that it doesnt matter exactly how many you each have. When she gives you 5 you will have 10 more than her because she will lose 5 and you will gain 5, resulting in a net difference of 10.
For example, if you each have 25 apples and she gives you 5 of hers, she will be left with 20 and you will now have 30, precisely 10 more than she has. Did you answer this riddle correctly?
YES NO
