Subj: Kharam Dzu 120th Anniversary Celebration
Attention all Terasians (and visitors and future guests)! We’re happy to announce a celebration to honor the founding of our great city by Ghorsa Borthuum, 120 years ago.

The festivities will be held the week of June 1-8, with some shops remaining open until the 9th. We will provide more details and a schedule of events the week before, but you can expect to see things like..

A hot air balloon!
The reveal of an expansion to the Stormbrow Gallery!
Food and drink native to all parts of Elanthia!
Games and merchants!
Shopping!
Announcement of the verb contest winners!
Citizens’ pins and souvenirs!

This is going to be a cultural event, not a massive gear-acquiring event, but we expect it to be great fun. Meanwhile, please continue to be on your guard, as the island’s seismic activities have still been occurring with more frequency than usual. Be alert! Stay alive to party with us for the anniversary!

Woooooooooooooo!

Looking forward to this already!

Also, I am officially and publicly challenging Bremerial to a drinking competition to be held at this event! Bremerial can choose the beverages to be consumed.

Oh, right! And a drinking game! Remember the ones from the Highman Games? We get to do that on the Rock.

You can challenge each other for real!

Oh yes! Favourite recreational activity of dwarves everywhere!
Better increase my tolerance for non Ale alcoholic beverages in preparation. It’s a dirty job but somebody’s got to do it!

…that moment when your family say: “Lets have a few days away..” and you realise the day they want to go is slap bang in the middle of the Kharam Dzu celebration!

o.O

Steering them away from their chosen dates with the ease of a seasoned politician! haha! Fingers crossed!

Haha. Trying the application of logic. But I suspect bribery and moral blackmail may be more successful.

“You know how hard i’ve been working.. instead of a few days at the beach to enjoy this unusually fantastic weather, how about a week in Cyprus later this year?”
(The Kharam Dzu festival is going to be more costly than I thought – haha.)

>drop them. they were holding you back anyway. family seems like a giant pain.

LOL. Will keep that option in reserve.. πŸ˜€

Oh trust me, after 20 years.. they know!

“Wendy?”

Subj: Re: Kharam Dzu 120th Anniversary Celebration – Bremerial's contest
So I thought I’d set a contest as my way of celebrating the upcoming celebration.

Limerick Contest

This contest is simple. Provide the last line for the limerick below.

The prize will be the donation of 15 minutes of alteration time recently won.

A young Kharam Dzu dwarf named Zale
Went to Bentock’s and drank too much ale
He awoke in the bed
Of a buxom red head
{Your submission}

Keep it clean-ish please.. Can be funny, clever, imaginative. I’ll be judging. Will try and rope in some other judges too.

Just email your submissions to me at bremerial@gmail.com before 7th June, with the character name and i’ll announce the winner of the contest on the 8th June.

Can I ask for one submission per account (although I’ll have no way of checking)

Keep them coming. Loads of time. Email to me rather than posting here. I’d like them to be a surprise on the day. The hope is that they can be all read out during the celebration just before the winner is announced.

Will include yours of course Clunk

One correction: can you get your entries in before 11:59pm EST on 5th June please. Then we can have the winner announced on 6th June at around 8pm, with the reading of all entries, before the appearance of dignitaries at Stormbrow Museum. Trying to work with the scheduling.

..and yes, I am one slightly over-excited dwarf! If I could find some way to give all entrants a prize, I certainly would! πŸ˜€

Ok this is the list of names of individuals who have submitted entries for the limerick contest. Remember submissions must be in before 11.59pm EST on 5th June and the winner will be selected from the chosen submissions and will receive a donated prize of a 15 minute alteration session.

Lasentra
Frorin
Komoki
Cappyn

All entries will be read out by myself in the large Garden Pavilion outside Stormbrow Museum [Glaes and Dragonstail] at 8pm EST on 6th June. I will be inviting a town dignitary to come and listen to the skillful work of the poets – although I cannot guarantee his/her attendance. Then the winner will be announced.

Hope you can make the poetry readings.


Just to remind you of the contest rules:

Simply submit the last finishing line to the following limerick and the name of the submitting character -(So just a single line, not a whole new limerick)

…but actually, no idea about the new verbs. Good question. Have the new verbs been implemented and what are they? I actually don’t know.

The verbs took a back seat due to some people’s schedules, but they will be implemented. I’m really sorry for the delay. My brain has been working on some other stuff for the Isle in the meantime, as well as Ebon Gate starting VERY SOON.

If you haven’t heard from me about this by the end of November (let me get through EG and check on a few things), bug me again. I’ll try to have an update sooner.
