TIME IS UP.

Surviving Warriors - 8

Fallen Warriors - 0

Rogues - 13

Deceased - 27

Awards

The North Star - for making it through week XXV.
@AstralHunter @AdrianMoon @Buggiedude2340 @EnderFlash @Falconer @Meandbooks @Pompadour @QueenOfHearts @Tortwag

Outstanding Opening Line Award

Though dawn struck an hour before, the sun stays low in its winter path.
- Buggiedude2340

’I Love That Line’ Award

There was a tense silence as all three of them dared not speak, none of them willing or sure on how to approach the matter without smashing the ice they tread on with a hammer.
- EnderFlash

He ran a hand through his hair, cringing as it came back wet, and wiped his sweaty palm on a nearby tapestry. That would leave a stain, he was sure, but he really could not bring himself to care.
- Pompadour

Delightful Description

The horizon remains painted with fluffy brushstrokes of pink and orange, and a layer of freezing fog still awaits sublimation..
- Buggiedude2340

The air reeked of blood and antiseptics, and although most of the patients were hidden behind white curtains, the urgent tone of doctors’ voices and the occasional spot of blood on the floor only fueled Verona’s imagination.
- Meandbooks

Week XXVI Commences!

Hope you all had a great Christmas! :D

@AdrianMoon Easily the best reason to miss a deadline. Like seriously, nobody's gonna shout at you 'cause you had your sister's wedding to attend to. Hope that went well :D

For a moment I, panicked and thought, "But it can't be Saturday already!" XD
But the Fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.
— Paul the Apostle

Winter is inevitable. Spring will return eventually, and AstralHunter with it.

TIME IS UP.

Surviving Warriors - 9

Rogues - 13

Deceased - 27

Awards

The Purple Dragonfly - for making it through week XXX.
@AstralHunter @AdrianMoon @Buggiedude2340 @EnderFlash @Falconer @Meandbooks @Pompadour @QueenOfHearts @Tortwag

Outstanding Opening Line Award

The conference room was not a large room, by any standards, but the furniture was arranged artfully enough to feign airiness in a space that would have seemed, otherwise, to be small and cramped.
- Pompadour

’I Love That Line’ Award

I switched my attention from one of the dresses that I was restitching so that I’d have more movement to move around and defend myself.
- AdrianMoon

The Vulpix brought the mallet down with a crash and smirked at the satisfying sound of a shell shattering.
- AstralHunter

Delightful Description

It was punctuated by the occasional hiss from a certain unconscious woman.
- EnderFlash

After her conversation with Analia, Verona spent the rest of the day feeling as if someone had lit a cozy fire in her chest, and she threw herself into training even more than she had before.
- Meandbooks

Week XXXI Commences!

Awards

The Emerald Leaf - for making it through week XXXII.
@AstralHunter @AdrianMoon @Buggiedude2340 @EnderFlash @Falconer @Meandbooks @Pompadour @QueenOfHearts @Tortwag

Outstanding Opening Line Award

The land remained flat for a great margin, yellow grass springing from the earth in humble lengths, before evolving into a series of hills like a billowing flag held to a gust by a clothesline.
- EnderFlash

’I Love That Line’ Award

They weren’t by any means soundproof, but the other patients usually had the decency to pretend not to hear each other’s more embarrassing moments of convalescence.
- Meandbooks

Then, Pedra broke the spell, and Evian felt as if the dust that danced in the lyte fixtures, too, had settled.
- Pompadour

Delightful Description

The two of them sat there, broken on the shores of the lake as red light washed over them and sirens split the night. 
- Falconer

A chorus of voices erupts in the small tunnel, but I can’t distinguish anything from the crashing of what I hope are just bones.
- QueenOfHearts

I really am in awe of you guys.

Week XXXIII Commences!
