Festivi Noctus Essay Contest

Written by: Inquisitive Mind, Ireth Trismegistus
Date: Wednesday, April 5th, 2017
Addressed to: Everyone


Sapience,

I come to you this month with yet another contest. This one every bit as tiresome and hard as each of our arena events. Hopefully by now someone has a favored past event they enjoyed, or perhaps you enjoyed all of them. Here's your chance to teach us what you know.

We are holding an essay contest from now until the month before the ball, that is to say Glacian 1 we will no longer take submissions for the contest.

Now here are the details:
Subject: Lord Twilight, His Order or His realms.

Material: You may use any events/public posts that you have access to, as well as non-fictional books about the Dark Father as well. All we ask is that in the end of the book, you place footnotes giving us the details on where you gained your information.

Submissions: All submissions must be in the form of either a scroll, manuscript, or journal.
Each submission must be truthful to the best of your knowledge and cite the material your work came from.
You may not copy whole events posts unless they are being used to illustrate a point. For example you may not send us a journal full of public posts, but you may send us a journal with public posts and other information, or your own writing to explain them.
Each submission will be judged based upon content, errors, as well as detail. So you may send us a short, badly written piece, full of false rhetoric and win, however if we recieve a well written, detailed, and correct piece of work, yours will not win.

Judge: We will be turning all submissions over to an impartial judge for the event, in the event of fairness. The Librarian of Hashan will inform us of their choices and the best of the selection will go to Hashan's library.

Now for the exciting stuff, the following are the points as of the last event:
Ehene 10
Bade 9
Iakimen 8
Amanda 7
Kiincade 6
Berlewen 6
Alekxz 5
Leviticus 5
Nymaane 5
Asani 5
Hasley 5
Taryius 5
Kasa 5
Dunn 5
Mirek 5
Truax 5
Rallentando 5
Shirszae 3
Sholen 3
Farrah 3
Arashnuul 3
Shayan 3
Chris 3
Direxi 3
Llesvelt 3
Kalila 3
Mycen 3
Evastiana 2
Torben 2
Alrena 2
Byakko 2

It's been a close match thus far, but it's still anyone's win. We have two more arena events coming up, one will be a Tournament of the Fang, and the other will be announced soon. There will be one more non-arena event before the ball as well. Thank you to all of you who have played. Tickets for the ball are still on sale until Glacian, please remember that the ball will be formal, so have your gowns and other formal wear dusted off and ready to go. You will recieve your tickets five to seven months before the ball.

Good luck!
