My first, five long, is a general description of my second.
My second, four long, is a humble example of my first.
My third, three long, names the tail of my first and my second.


A clue: Modes of transportation are involved

Good luck, Captain, my captain. Nothing but prayers and good thoughts coming at you from the old troll. ;)

Tricksy, tricksy....I like the wording a looottt....

My first, five long, is a general description of my second. Vague?
My second, four long, is a humble example of my first.
My third, three long, names the tail of my first and my second.

Vague is not correct, sire. All the words are....related.

Not what I was looking for but a damned good answer, madam. And the format is correct. A goose sandwich for your efforts.

Now about the answer I'm looking for....best concentrate on the clues in reverse order, I would think. ;)

No, wait, nevermind..."end" doesn't work with the last clue. >_<

Why doesn't it, exactly...?

"Bendy" doesn't end with "end".:pullhair:

"Bendy" doesn't end with "end".:pullhair:

But a word like end is a good beginning...:evil:

hhmmm....

Trend
Rend
End
?

Not end...but like end.

All I can think of that's "link end" and has three letters is "aim," but I don't think that's it....

Possibly "fin" for the third clue??

If so, I have no idea what the first two would be.
Gaberax

Fin is not correct.
End itself is not correct. Nor any word containing end directly.
