    COTY

    Assailant -- Year 226

    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

    They fight and they bleed and they die. But most importantly, they kill. Though it could not truly be said that Hera is pleased, she shows what mercy she has. She keeps her word, and when the beast is slain, she returns you home. Save one, who was the slain, rather than the slayer. This one has displeased her, but in the end, she is generous. As generous as an immortal being like her can be.



    @Sintra Hera has returned you your life and your home, but for failing at your task, you have been cursed: everything you eat, anything that touches your tongue, shall taste of pomegranates until you slay a beast in battle.

    Though everyone else has done as Hera bade, she is most pleased by three of you. To those, she gives a gift. A reminder of her benevolence.

    To @galadriel, she gives Water Embodiment. You are a physical manifestation of water and can use it to change all or parts of yourself into any of the three physical states of water.

    To @Aela, she gives Fire Generation. You can create/summon or smother fire, but you cannot otherwise control it.

    To @gravitas, she gives Flight without Wings.

    Everyone finds themselves healed and returned to where they were taken from. But as a reminder of her wrath, Hera leaves every contestant with the scars they earned while fighting the Nemean Lion - lest you forget what happens when you defy a goddess.



    Congratulations! Everyone’s stories were incredible and I had such a hard time deciding. @Sintra, @Tirza, and @rapt can choose a constellation marking for participating - either Gemini, Cancer, or Leo. Thank you all! I look forward to seeing you next time...
