Who am I? A puzzle in parts

Puzzling Asked by abbaf33f on December 9, 2020

I am one of four brothers, we make a foundation
in some way we are native to every nation
if one is kind, the other is not
if one is a little the other is a lot
from what you give i will take
only 1 of my brothers will moreso break

+

where to find the long lost party?
of those once high, yet became naughty
swallowed like a black like whole
wants your time, not your soul
sounds like the armor of your mouth
after water is burnt, it tis more south

you yes you it is always true
but me yes me, it shall also be
then what is made when you are with me?
is that 1 plus 1 or is it 3?

Oh! {answer}


Now that you found the answer
You may have to look online for a prancer
Who has taken my form into competition
And won championships with Ambition
I shall give thee clue to his name
Taken from astronomy to his fame


Hint: the first paragraph is solved below, a clue for the second passage is

I wonder if the first paragraph is:

I am one of four brothers, we make a foundation

in some way we are native to every nation

if one is kind, the other is not

if one is a little the other is a lot

from what you give i will take

only 1 of my brothers will moreso break

Here's an answer that takes the current known information a little further, with some suggestions for what might need to be done next...

Stanza 1:

As @Dmihawk found (since confirmed by the OP), the answer to this stanza is:

I am one of four brothers, we make a foundation
in some way we are native to every nation
if one is kind, the other is not
if one is a little the other is a lot
from what you give i will take
only 1 of my brothers will moreso break

Stanza 2:

This stanza clues:

where to find the long lost party?
of those once high, yet became naughty
swallowed like a black like whole

wants your time, not your soul

sounds like the armor of your mouth
after water is burnt, it tis more south

Hint 2: Is there a place for a King of Sissies? And with his cat?

This is a further reference, cluing:

Stanza 3:

This stanza clues:

you yes you it is always true
but me yes me, it shall also be
then what is made when you are with me?
is that 1 plus 1 or is it 3?

The answer (a theory):

At this point we need to combine the words we have found using the arithmetic operations in between them - i.e. add the first to the second, then remove the letters of the third. Doing this gives us something like:

Still searching for a satisfying final answer, but I feel this has made decent progress, solving the 3 initial stanzas at the very least...
