*The winning poem for Ihsahn's competition of Bards, hung on the wall of Myulon's Inn*

Infinite in mystery is the gift of the Goddess. We seek it thus, and take to the sky. Ripples form on the water's surface. The wandering soul knows no rest. There is no hate, only joy. For you are beloved by the goddess. Hero of the dawn, Healer of worlds. Dreams of the morrow hath the shattered soul.
Pride is lost. Wings stripped away, the end is nigh. My friend, do you fly away now? To a world that abhors you and I? All that awaits you is a somber morrow. No matter where the winds may blow. My friend, your desire. Is the bringer of life, the gift of the goddess. Even if the morrow is barren of promises. Nothing shall forestall my return
My friend, the fates are cruel. There are no dreams, no honor remains. The arrow has left the bow of the goddess. My soul, corrupted by vengeance. Hath endured torment, to find the end of the journey. In my own salvation. And your eternal slumber.
Legend shall speak Of sacrifice at world's end. The wind sails over the water's surface. Quietly, but surely. Even if the morrow is barren of promises. Nothing shall forestall my return. To become the dew that quenches the land. To spare the sands, the seas, the skies.
I offer thee this silent sacrifice

`Written by Dustin Hart.

Anyone else notice that this is plagiarised? Just saying. No biggie, just find it a little distasteful. :s

Bah, stupid college move in day... Had an original poem to submit that was somewhat hilarious.
But, should he really win if it was plagarism?


RE: A competition of Bards. - Bertram Anders - 08-20-2011

Well not if anyone else submited a poem.


RE: A competition of Bards. - Purulent Carcass - 08-20-2011

I personally don't care if it was plagarized. Time was taken to ensure it added flavor. This game isn't about origionality.


RE: A competition of Bards. - Xarnata - 08-20-2011

I just wanted that poem to exist in thay. XD I don't give a damn if I plagarized in a game.
Simple fact being, the winner was only chosen by a Perform roll, not the actual works.
Had it been the works Shia would have won instantly due to the greater majority of males in the room.

Now I'm curious about what Shia performed *grins*
