While it was done some years ago I see, I thought I would try a cryptic crossword-like thread for fun and to try and boost a little more interest here. I made up the below question for anyone interested in such a challenge. I thought the first person to get it correct might come up with the next question. A clue though - if you copy one from a newspaper or magazine etc., the answer can often be found on the internet. I can explain the answer for anyone who asks. ๐
The prisoner at the cave would not stand for the electrically charged droplets of water.

It isn't Scone domino-710.
She_el, I'll give a clue then.
There are three capitalized words. In cryptic crosswords capitalizations usually have specific significance. Also, beware of misdirections!

Yes, that definitely makes it clearer ๐

Do you want me to try and be clearer, without giving it away?

Maybe wait a bit and see if she_elephant or the countess can work it out.
If they can't, then maybe another clue for us lesser mortals.
