Lady Epiphany and I are pleased to announce the upcoming Literary
Contest, the theme of which is, Love in Life throughout the history of
Aetherius. Your bardic submission must be related to an historical event
or person, mentioned in the established recorded history of Aetherius.
It will not be considered for judging if it is not in accord with this
requirement. An example of a possible entry would be a more elaborate
detailing of the tale of Lyria, and how her love of her people, gave her
the strength to free them from tyranny.

Submissions deemed vulgar or obscene will not be tolerated, and possibly
even be punished. Act of plagiarism will not be tolerated, and will most
certainly be punished. Be creative, stories regarding Love are not
necessarily romantic and filled with prurient recitations. There is a
limit of 1000 words per work, and only one submission per person. The
contest will open immediately, and will be judged with the winners
announced by October 1st, 2006. Submissions received after September 30th
will not be considered for entry.

The winner of the Literary Contest will receive a prestigious title
added to their honours, as well as three hundred credits.

The submission to receive second place will receive two hundred credits,
and the third place submission will receive one hundred credits.

The top ten submissions will be added to the Annals of the Fellowship of
Scarlatti, and will be able to be read from the website. Please send
your submissions to one or both of the following addresses.
Shallah@Imperian.com or Epiphany@Imperian.com.

Good luck to you all,
Lady Shallah
