Hi. I'm new.

It shows two ways to get to death,
only two, and no more.
the first is through portal guarded
the second back through war.

Emperors arrive after gods,
where nine is eleven,
First the father and then the son
if the first be seven.

I wasn't actually going to post two riddles at once, but I've just remembered a riddle I simply adore)

The poorest has it, the richest need it, but if either of them would eat it, they would certainly die.

the third (word))

Now, a difficult one.

Think of words which end in -GRY. 'Angry' and 'hungry' are two of them. There but three words in the common tongue. Which is the third word? The word is something one uses every day. If thou hast listened carefully, I have already told thee the answer.
