Bravo Avie !!.. ⭐️ 👏.. u chose the subject of ur riddle wisely!!..⭐️

Although I do have a minor doubt, I think the word 'evil' was too strong a word in this context, were u going for 'spoiled'? Since u mentioned the expiry date, I assume that's what u meant..( p.s. I dont think anybody would have been able to crack it even then)..but a brilliant riddle nevertheless.. also, I think u forgot to add explanation for the final clue, something about never being offered to one for whom it was meant to be.. although its pretty clear, no explanations needed there..

@ Chandni

Sorry we forced Avie to answer earlier than u anticipated..

Anyways, since I m clearing doubts, I have one for u too..its about ur last riddle..the last line of the 'Bazoar' riddle was something like ' one to son' in which its pretty clear that "one" is Harry ( the chosen one) but what made Ron the 'son'?.. so far words used for Ron vary from red haired, weasley, king ( from the song weasley is our king) etc, & they all had strong logical backing.. so I would like to know if there is any such explanation for using the word " son" for Ron.. surely, u didn't mean like Arthur & Molly's son.. bcoz that way everybody is someone's son or daughter, its not unique to the character Ronald Weasley..

Thank you so much Akash..

Well it did take me a lot of time to phrase it..

I used evil here because after something expires, it automatically turns into a poison.. Which is evil.. That was my intention behind using it.. Although spoiled can also be used, maybe that would have given the answer..

And as to that two lines..

Reached my final.. I was never seen again..

The tonic finally was given to Ron by Harry and it was never swen again because it isn't mentioned again..

The one I was offered to didn't reach me again..

After Harry gives it, Ron never uses it again..

So hope this clears everything

Thanks Almas.. Really appreciate it..

Now that I think, maybe evil was too strong.. But I actually wanted it to mean like poison.. Because a tonic after expiring becomes a poison.. My bad!😕

Riddle No.4

Deep within the locked chamber,

Often a reason for valor as well as blunder.

Concealed though it is, never coming across it is a rare possibility,

Unless you bamboozle yourself to bypass its credibility.

For some it validates existence,

While for others it simply takes away the will of persistence.

The one who tried to outwit it got hoodwinked himself,

For those who despise it, might as well be dead themselves.

P.S. After Avie's riddle, this one should be a cake walk especially bcoz I think I came across a similar riddle in one of the earlier seasons of riddles thread..
