Jester Posted April 20, 2015 Report Posted April 20, 2015 Oh TTL, the pipes, the pipes are calling From glen to glen, and down the mountain side The summer's gone, and all the flowers are dying 'Tis you, 'tis you must go and I must bide. But come ye back when desert's in the meadow Or when necrovion's hushed and dark with shades 'Tis I'll be here in night or in the shadow Oh TTL, oh TTL, I miss you so. Quote

Kyphis the Bard Posted April 20, 2015 Report Posted April 20, 2015 A gift was given, On the high seas Crimson pennons encrusted with salt The blades, the first family Of a friend now found in final rest. Many adventures were had, and questors aided A mind as sharp as the spines upon his back But amongst the adventures, the greatest of all Started with a pocket, and some seeds. Through all the roads, all the lands We could find you, tending to your friends But now it is we that tend you, and your roots We would see you bloom, Awiiya. Jester and Lania 2 Quote
phantasm Posted April 20, 2015 Author Report Posted April 20, 2015 by Misshadowst Jester's fun-eral dirge "Let us raise our voices and sing Of this greatly fallen king. NAAAAAAH Pass me another Fat-Tire The poor sap is still on fire! Much well loved, though a liar Let us drink and piss on his pyre!" Posted by Aeos Lament to Cutler Another has gone and left, a face that none shall ever forget. I have heard great words about his work. Though a chance to meet him, I shall not get. Saddened is the realm at his departure, but in our hearts he shall always be. The words I speak cannot bring him back, but it can help us all to see... Stories will be told of Cutler, stories that many will wish to hear. For he was a friend to many a person, and those memories...they will be held dear. Sasha Lilias, Jester and Lania 2 1 Quote
apophys Posted April 20, 2015 Report Posted April 20, 2015 No more shall you observe the sun Or gaze upon the moon Your constellation's tale is done Your sight no more attuned Your memory lives on in those Of us who can recall And tell to those who haven't heard The name of Bootes at all.

phantasm Posted April 20, 2015 Author Report Posted April 20, 2015 Kyphis has been declared the winner. His Dirge was not only lamentful, but very personal. Had good line structure, and ya can drink to it. Congrats on the anni! Aeos was 2nd. For not knowing those gone past, Aeos did very well. Personal as well thrown in about not knowing, very good structure. Congrats on a bloodpact archer Everyone else will receive 2 silver for their excellent submissions. With timed quests like that, its difficult to come up with good material, which is what makes it so special. Impromptu tends to tell the real feelings of those who put forth their effort. Good job everyone, and thank you! Eagle Eye and Kyphis the Bard 2 Quote
