First Annual Historical Collection of the Constellations
We, of the Order of Lady Cassiopeia are hosting an event and extend an
invitation to everyone of the realm to participate in the sharing of any
dreams or tales of the constellations above us. It is our endeavor to
collect and sort through the many visions and stories that abound
throughout each corner of our realm of the constellations that sparkle
above us all. We hope to bring about a more concise and collective unity
in the meanings and symbolisms of each constellation, how they have may
touched each of your lives, families, clans, guilds, or any histories
that have been passed down through generations as far back as any can
recall. In bringing together all these tales, and sifting through them
all to create a binding and organized collection that everyone in the
realms may study, we hope to create a uniform intergrated guide to the
stars that includes all walks of life, race, and beliefs. Here now is a
chance for everyone, no matter their paths in this realm, to put forth
their lore of the constellations and possibly hold a place among the
stars that shall be acknowledged by one and all, blessed by the Lady
Cassiopeia.
This event shall be open from now until the end of Tenebrae.There shall
be held a celebration at the beginning of Fas, commerating the coming of
our Lady Cassiopeia to these realms. During this celebration, the chosen
meanings of the constellations listed below shall be announced, and
scribed within a scroll henceforth to be the accepted chronicles with
which we shall all look to. We humbly pray you do not allow this
opportunity to hold a place in history to pass you by. Join us in this
search for what the stars hold and in what they may convey to us
eternally. Each person of the chosen tales shall also be awarded a token
of appreciation in the form of jewlery and 2,000 gold, in addition to
their recognition within the scroll of the origin of each constellation.
We shall be hosting this event yearly, held from the end of Fas to the
beginning of Tenebrae, so there will be an ongoing chance for everyone
to enter their stories of the posted constellations for that year. May
your participation in this event be blessed with the wisdom and guidance
of the stars. Please send any entries to Aster, Caitlin, Daganev,
Ellarynth or myself. The constellations for this year are :
