    QOTY

    "But the dream, the echo, slips from him as quickly as he had found it and as consciousness comes to him (a slap and not the gentle waves of oceanic tides), it dissolves entirely. His muscles relax as the cold claims him again, as the numbness sets in, and when his grey eyes open, there’s nothing but the faint after burn of a dream often trod and never remembered." --Brigade, written by Laura

    Brilliant Pampas Quest
    #1
    ROUND 1
    The faeries were able to bring back the uninfected places, safe havens for their people, but they know that it’s only a temporary relief. It is not a solution. After many days (or hours, or months, they aren’t the greatest at keeping track of mortal time) of contemplation, they believe they have found a solution.

    But as their people had helped the Dark God to bring about this despair and destruction, the people are the secret ingredient to undoing it. The people of Beqanna will have to put more effort into the healing of Beqanna than they put into its sickening - at least four times as much, or so it seems to the fae on the Mountain. Four times the effort, and four lands brought back from Beqanna before - the symmetry is pleasing to the

    Those who are willing to sacrifice to save the world have attempted two tasks now for the fae, and they are clearly tired as they gather on the mountain again; some have found new strength in the challenges, but others are standing haggard, on the verge of giving up. “Don’t give up,” she’s the smallest among them, hidden behind the others until she daintily picks her way to the front of the group. She’d remind you of a child, if you didn’t know she was an ageless fairy - an eternal child, then. Her coat is picked through with flowers and her eyes are strangely bright, like the spring sunshine. Her entreaty fills you with renewed purpose, because she reminds you of everything you are here to fight for.

    ”We need flowers from the Brilliant Pampas. One each of red, white, yellow, pink, and orange blooms.” You are thinking to yourself how easy that sounds, compared to the wasteland of Icicle Isle and the monsters in Silver Cove. You should have known it can’t be that easy. “But they have to be from spring’s first blooming - which is already upon us. Hurry!”

    Rules
    -Everyone may enter one character in this quest
    -Round 1 entries are to be posted in Brilliant Pampas in the Quest thread no later than January 19th at 10:30 EST.
    -This quest is primarily a TIMED quest. You’ve been warned. After the first round, eliminations will be made on a basis of who posts first, as long as the rules are followed. Posts will have a word limit.
    -Your first post should describe your character making the journey to the Brilliant Pampas; upon arrival, they succumb to the effect of a blooming flower similar to the Poppy flower, and your post should end as they fall asleep.
    -Your character can maintain their traits for this quest.
    -This quest will have three rounds; no eliminations in round one, eliminations in round 2 of a percentage of questers depending on how many enter, and the third round will have one winner and four runner-ups.
    -Anyone who fails to respond to a round just because they know it’s timed and they’re not going to be first will receive a permanent defect. If you need to withdraw for some reason, make sure you message the Officials so you are not penalized.
    -Those eliminated after round 2 will receive a 0-space appearance trait that may be temporary or permanent (player’s choice), as will anyone who advances to round 3 but isn’t in the top five; those who advance to round 3 will have the chance to win a 2 or 3 space genetic trait.
    fair winds & good luck
