This week’s brain teaser: 

I am the soul within the blessed,
but soon must take my leave.
And in my wake, a wound undressed
will stain a silken sleeve.

I possess the one who’s cursed,
but I cannot stay for long.
And when I go, your wounds reversed
will make the sickly strong.

This week’s riddle:
I’m the longest ruling monarch in history,
The most ruthless that you’ll ever see.

I travel the country with blistering haste.
Laying castles and outposts to waste.

Swatting down cavalry, disassembling the faith,
If I should fall, I’ll see you again on the 8th.

This week’s riddle

With 3 or 4 points, I can cause pain,
If you use me a lot and weight you will gain.

Sometimes I’m paired with a blade,
I’m quite useful and totally man made.

What am I?
