Yay! My turn.

The bird without feather sits on the tree without leafs.
The maid with no mouth came and ate the featherless bird.
Bird and Maid, who might you be?

For some reason, I am thinking of a feather duster.

It is not, but a "speck of dust and a feather duster" are in the spirit of the riddles answer. (Plus it greatly amuses me)
A hint, it is very very old and predates feather dusters.

I don't have an answer but would still like to pose one of my own.

I quest of love ends with me, yet I am made endlessly. If I drop I say my name. If I touch rock, freedom gain.

A ring? I'm not sure if love really ends with it, but it's kind of like the final objective before marriage. It's endless because it's a circle and it makes a ringing noise if you drop it. The last part is throwing me off though so I don't know if I'm right.

Yes. a ring is the answer. In the game the riddle comes from, the person who tells you the riddle is stuck inside a boulder, and touching a ring to the boulder releases him. Hence the "If I touch rock, freedom gain."

You only see me at night, and I am white or yellow coming towards, and red if going away or in the same direction as you. What am I.

Is this related to a car? A think it must be the light of a car. At night, drivers turn the lights on. If you're in front of a car and the car is approaching you, then you see the yellow or white lights (Headlights?). And when a car is getting away from you, you will see the red lights (Taillights?). Am I correct? And sorry for my english.

Either the cars on the road, or the flashers on the posts on the side of the road.

Ring riddle off Pool of Radiance.

Edit: It's the reflection of a duck on the water.

I got one.

I fight for what's right, and I fight for what's wrong.
Brighter than the sun am I, yet at the same time darker than the darkest cave.
I am the weakest of all things, yet within me lies the ultimate power.

What am I?

Not what I had in mind, but a good one. Take another guess.

True enough. I like to think laterally though. Could have just as easily been something along the lines of human nature, the soul, the mind or human love, frailty or condition. The metaphors surrounding the answer make it a little more broad. Still, it's a good one.

I am both above and below you at any one time
I am obvious before you, as you're reading this rhyme
To know what I am, heed these words:
I have something in common with the darkest of birds.

Well, seeing as it's a little slow, the darkest of birds is a Raven
That's one thing that tripped me up, I couldn't decide if the darkest of birds was a Raven or a Crow.

Is the answer Death?

Fits really well actually, but no.

Sorry, I also realize it should read:

I can be both above and below you at any one time.

Well, this is just a shot in the dark, but is the answer Darkness/blackness?

Nope

Note that I have specified a raven and raven specifically. So what is something that is (un)commonly associated with ravens?

Also I make an assumption that the object in question is obvious before you. It really depends, but I think nearly everyone on this forum would have this in front of them.

I'll give you another guess, then I'll let you in on my weird logic. Unless you want to keep trying...

Eh, it's probably something I'll be like "ooh! I SHOULD have known that!" but I'll give. What is it?
