"You're good at ciphers, aren't you, Dad?" said PEggy
"I've solved a few in my time," said her father.
"Have a stab at this one." On a half-sheet of paper Peggy had printed:
IMPS ELUDE
NEWS-RIME
-NERO
"It doesn't seem to make much sense said Peggy's father. "What's the big idea?"
"Transliteration," said Peggy.
"Absurd, my good girl. There's not nearly enough material."
"I knew you'd say that," said PEggy, grinning. "Have a go, all the same. It has been described as too wonderful."
Can you-with the aid of the hint-transliterate Peggy's cipher?
Re: PLEASE solve this and show me how you solved it...

Take the P and insert it in the - . Than take the E and insert it in the next -. IMPS ELUDE NEWS PRIME ENERO? I do not know what it means??
IMPS ELUDE
NEWS-RIME
-NERO
Imp - a demon
Elude - to escape
(As Tryingtohelp states: "IMPS ELUDE NEWS PRIME ENERO?"
Enero is Spanish for January.
In other words it says "January Prime News - demons escaped"

That's just too wonderful.
Great, where are these demons?

Have you checked the back of the sofa? I always find my missing stuff down there.
Now this is a real Riddle: Ticomaya / Tico
I have been told one is a cigar smoking tough guy, and the other is one hot babe. But, which is which?
