    :-: Oh, the Bunyip's going to get you in the Bunyip moon

    In my time, I have done all of these things:

    I belong only to he who is willing to exhaust my source.

    A long road was paved and kept in my honor.

    I am not a wrong-front, and after dwelling in the Marina's Maw I went on to the Town of Anthropic Pastures.

    I am the juice of a legume that tries not to be seen as such.

    Though I did not desire rulership, I governed in the name of the Outsider my god. That might help you might guess what I am called, eh?

    Do you know me?

    Atlantis, Eden?

    "Town of Anthropic Pastures," not "Town of Anthropic." Neither Atlantis nor Eden have anything to do with the answer, sorry.

    i don't know why, but the only thing I could think of was addiction.

    I'm sure that's wrong.

    Good riddle, NC, and good to see ya again.
    "So many vows. They make you swear and swear. Defend the King, obey the King, obey your father, protect the innocent, defend the weak. But what if your father despises the King? What if the King massacres the innocent? It's too much. No matter what you do, you're forsaking one vow or another."

    'Tisn't addiction, Sir Blaze. Sorry.

    And Jonwalter...I will get an avatar as soon as I figure out a way to get my Homsar/Crimson King one off my old computer.

    Are the titles, as in Oh, the Bunyip's going to get you in the Bunyip moon, a part of these riddles and if not, how are they thrown in?

    Oftentimes the titles in Riddles are completely non-sequitur, having absolutely nothing to do with the riddle in question. Such is the case here.

    Why does "Appian Way" seem to come to mind?
    It's peanut butter jelly time!

    I reckon we need to just pick this one apart.

    I will ponder the "Outsider my God."

    Madam Oy: I don't know why Appian Way comes to mind. Then again, I don't know what Appian Way is.

    Jonwalter: You may have picked the trickiest part to figure out. That's the part that I expect will trip most people up. Anyone who knows to what that section refers is likely to understand it almost immediately. Anyone who doesn't is likely to have quite a time figuring it out. I'll give you a teeny tiny hint: the section you've chosen might not be as abstract as you think, dear sir.

    I have yet to see anything touching upon the answer.

    Gonna try to deduce this from my thoughts and request follow up help...

    Some type of automobile, Truck or SUV for the following reasons:

    Exhaust my source... Owned until traded, sold or junked

    Long paved road: Autobahn comes to mind, making me think a German car

    Wrong-Front and pastures makes me think again an automobile and a junk yard

    Juice of legume could be oil as in peanut oil

    I have no clue on the last abstract one

    Automobile of any type is incorrect.

    And the last one is not nearly as abstract as people are interpreting it. In fact, it's one of the most literal of the clues. Just...more obscure.

    Idol: Nope

    False Prophet: Nay

    Cow: Nein

    I'll give you all another small hint. Part of the riddle is a pun--but which part?--and figuring out which part it is and what the pun is a play on may give you a clue (but not the answer).
