Hello all.
I'm fairly new to Sleuth and I thought I might share a little hobby of mine with you all. Here's something for that sad moment when the mysteries of the day are all done.

Thousands lay up gold within this house,
but no man made it.
Spears past counting guard this house,
but no man wards it.
What is it?

I'd ask him "where's the town you came from?" If he is from Lie Town, He points to Truth. If he is from Truth town, he points to Truth.

Ok another creative and right one.

"Which road do you take to go home?"
Truth: would point to his road
Lie: would also point to the truth road.

But what if he answers, I don't have home, which would also be a lie. So that can't be right either.

Or he could point to the road you came from. And you would be no step further either.

Is there a word in the English language that has all six vowels (a e i o u y)? What is it?

What word in the English language has nine letters but only one vowel?

These are more word play than riddles, but I like them :)
