"We learn again and again how difficult it is to live with the wolf, for to tame her is to break her power."
Approach the land of forest in malice at your peril, for my archers are strong. In this land, I am everything and nothing - the grey that sits between. The between of land and sea, the between of truth and lie, the between of fire and sky - moon and star. Sit before me if you wish to know, or do not. I hold secrets, and I do not. Know me as huntress. Know me as she who holds the scales.

QUEST HAS ENDED
Artwork Quest: Cyclicity HAS ENDED!! JUDGING WILL BEGIN AS OF 1/2/2012!
1) Description:
Cycles move the realm. They turn the community in waves that continue crashing and returning, and crashing again. Everywhere you look, a cycle can be found. Kings come and go. Fellow players sleep and return awake. Leaders fall and rise. Rain falls in the realm, and then stops, and falls again. Alliances thrive in activity, then fall silent. These are the cycles that surround us as we move in the realm, and they are found everywhere.
I would like all participants who enter this contest to write a story about Cyclicity and then illustrate it.
***If you are not confident in your ability to draw or illustrate, team up with someone who is able to. If you have written a story, find someone who is able to illustrate it. If you have illustrated an artwork, and cannot do a story.. find someone who might be able to write something around the artwork you have presented
.***
The Principal of Cyclicity (description of the principal) can be found on the Magic Duel log in page.
But for those who do not want to take a moment to look on the front page, here it is:
"Each event could either take part having a certain shape, having its own cycle, repeating itself after time, or could either be part of another superior event that has its own cycle. Events like daily routine, or the changing of the seasons, or the shifting of the planet Poles, or even the world itself are all cyclic events. Symbolic, all events occur on the shape of a circle, two opposites intertwining, just like a snake, biting its own tail. The cycles actually represent a Balance either between the consumption of energy and its (re)generation, either between different evolutionary steps. In the Principle Hierarchy, this Principle reigns over others, but is also inferior to some, making it very difficult to precisely reveal its importance. It exists in absolutely in every event that could have an opposite, for its role is that of creating and maintaining the Balance. Due to its repetitive nature, it can cover very long periods of time, or can even part from existence, due to the fact that the Principle can apply to that too, for even existence has an opposite, even if it is abstract and hard to understand. The Principle takes many shapes. For example, a simple thing like cutting a thing in equal halves, and then halving those, and so on to infinity, even if it doesn't look like it, applies to this Principle. Also, the perpetuation of a species, through never-ending cycles of deaths and births, or even in the evolution of science, that at one point causes its own downfall are cycles of the same Principle. In a battle, the Principle occurs when defense follows the attack, or when a series of attacks are released in order to weaken the adversary. Many forms of consumption or energy reloading can happen in only one cycle. But if one action(cycle) is modified in such a way in which it could cover more cycles, the result would be colossal in energy."
2) Rules:
There are no limits to how creative you can get with this contest, however there are some limits in regards to the story portion of the quest:
- Please do not write more than two pages, the limit is a half page to two pages.
*This is set in place this way so that the judge(s) do not tear their hair out and murder me and so the writing portion is not tedious on contestants.
- Your story must be in story format. Meaning it has to have a character that is actually doing something in the story. The only limit I will place on artwork is that you should send in illustrations that are complete. I will be judging based on creativity, skill, and how closely the illustration matches the story you submit.
***The artwork must be your own artwork. If I find anyone who steals artwork to get a reward, they will immediately be disqualified- no matter how good their story is.***
***You may only submit one entry, multiple entries are not allowed.***
Artwork submissions are to be placed in this QUEST FORUM THREAD using an upload link, or uploaded post attachments.
3) Judging:
There will be two sets of judges for this contest, and the judging will occur the week after the quest is over. (Aka. The week of New Years)
Artwork Submissions: Amoran K Kol, and Marvolo will judge these submissions. Story Submissions: Tarquinus (and possibly one other judge) will judge these submissions.
***All submissions must be in this thread by December 22nd!***
4) Rewards:
1st: Wish point.
2nd: 5$ credit pack
3rd: Enter Oak Tower stone
4th: Two cups of Aromatic Tea or one sponsored creature.
Because I would like everyone in this contest to get at least SOMETHING for entering a submission, sponsored rewards are also welcome as well! :)
If you have any questions regarding this quest, please do not hesitate to ask.
5) Sponsorship, Donated Rewards:
Each year I hold this quest I make a point to ensure that each participant gets at least SOMETHING for their entry. Artwork is not a difficult thing to do, and the same can be said for writing. If effort is shown, you will get something- no matter how small the reward. The more effort put into the quest, the higher the reward is likely to be. Thank you to those who choose to donate to the quest. If these rewards are not used, they will be returned to the person who donated after the quest is over.
***Please, when you send me a sponsored reward, message me as well so I can know who the reward came from.***
Esmaralda: 3 silver coins
Lashtal: Mirror Ritual stone
Marvolo: Weaken 5 stone
Jolla: Imperial Aramor, Sharptear

::REGARDING ART REQUESTS::
1. I am generous in that I will not always ask a customer to pay for the artwork I create.
2. Tell me the item description or the avatar description BEFORE I begin drawing, or I will not draw it for you again.
3. For the love of all that is holy, do not change your mind half way through the damn drawing.
4. I will upload the avatar artwork or I will not allow you to use the artwork drawn.
5. Do not beg for more artwork or bother me if you have already commissioned an avatar- or item from me if I have chosen to draw the artwork without charge.
6. Do not give me super detailed descriptions. Too much detail limits creativity.
(more to be added depending on annoyances along the way)
Upward and Reaching (Theories about the Land of Lore)
I had not noticed such a phenomenon before, perhaps because you do not always analyze a home. You merely live within it and enjoy it's gifts. However.. the structures in Loreroot seem to face the sun. They gaze upward, much like the face at War Hold, and the Tower which reminds me of an arrow directly pointing upward, and even the Totem, who's arms spread outward as though praying hands held to the sky.
Even Wasp's Altar displays an arc made of vines holding a symbol that reminds me of the sun ..it glows faintly.
Tis merely something to think about. Merely a wee theory among many disagreeable ones.
Poems:
From Asterdai: "For you, and Bob
Entwined in the Weave."
The Great Spirit, The World Tree, the vast forest of the life and the song
woven in its roots are you and me, there is a feeling here, its where we belong
wandering this forest, trees tower above
alone now, i am keeping you near
i may lose my way but never your love
in my heart now, i have nothing to fear
we will always be together, though you are gone
in this vast forest of our life and our song.
From Tzaroth: They don’t hear her screams…
What plagues her flesh, the memories of imagination All those things she wished she would have done She stares out into an empty room, with a smile Full of the bitterness that slowly chews away at her heart
They don’t see her pain…
The shadows that cover her eyes are not to seduce But reflect the specter of tears that haunt her night As she seeks without herself a distraction to fit The empty place where her soul once lived
~
The world she sees, that no one knows The private world within, sanctuary of her heart The cold reality that doesn’t care, doesn’t faze The still tranquility of her internal home
With faces that distort with disgust And vile words that drip poison She wades through the cities of earth Overcast jungles of steel, brick and concrete
Exasperation drips from a leaden sky Pours down over the lethargic grey Slightly sad eyes peer out to witness Another drab and boring day
A small wistful smile lights her face, The fire from inside her heart sparked Once more inspired to dig in and bring out The life that seethes within her mind

Sunfire has seen much suffering in his life. The conflict between Marind's
Bell and Necrovion has already taken a toll on the citizens of the realm.
Since no others have come forward to help settle the conflict between these
lands, he felt it was time for him to do so. He approached each monarch,
offering himself as a neutral party, to host and direct the negotiations ...
