I can see where you're coming from, especially since riddles often share overlapping elements and interpretations. The line "I rise without wings" could indeed describe shadows in certain contexts, but in this riddle, the intent was to focus on the characteristics of light, such as its essential role in enabling sight ("Without me, you can't see"). It's true that light and shadow are interdependent, but the distinction here was to highlight light as the more fundamental presence in the context of the riddle. While shadows give shape and form, they exist because of light, which was the intended reasoning behind the answer. Thank you again for your input, and I hope you enjoyed the rest of the game.
