The collective noun of a banana is bunch! And the nose of a banana is that black thing at the top! And if you say Var Equinallin fast enough it sounds suspiciously like "The bunch of noses belonging to a banana!" And once you reverse that it says "!ananab a ot gnignoleb seson fo hcnub ehT" Which roughly sounds like:
"Anna, nab a otter. No! Leg season for Hunch'd eyes nub et? Did I do good? Aha! I've got it!

No one should be told what the Var'Equinallin means. You'll have to guess it yourself.
Of course, there are hints given to you in the thread that can provide useful, if you know how to interpret them.
You can also ask for additional hints from those who have already solved the riddle.[quote="Corum"]Tell me what the meaning of the name is, please.[/quote]

But I'm not good in those riddles! 'Equallin' sounds in my ears almost like a forbidden substance used by bodybuilders and 'var'' might be a abbreviation for 'various'. Maybe it's just a finnish term, but I don't speak finnish at all. How could I solve this riddle?But I'm not good in those riddles!

Hints:
- It's EQUINALLIN, not EQUALLIN. Also, you don't need l33t f1nn15h sk1llz to solve the riddle.
-The answer is a granma.[quote="Corum"]But I'm not good in those riddles!

Sorry. Yes you are right. Thank you. Now I understand at least the nature of the riddle, but this only means that I have chance to solve it in the next ten years. Tonight I will dream of it, I think. Is there any other hint, maybe somewhere hidden in the game?Sorry. Yes you are right. Thank you.

Yeah, the answer is in the game, kinda. Well, partially. But you probably won't find it if you look for it.
It kinda sucks that only half of the answer is in the game though. The other half should be in there, too.Yeah, the answer is in the game, kinda. Well, partially. But you probably won't find it if you look for it.

Yes... I didn't read your answer before but I think I've got it. You are kidding, aren't you? It's a little bit mean.
