I commend your initiative and wish all contestants best of luck and inspiration. May I however ask how you find it acceptable to publish the winner’s entries in the New Eden Times which is hosted by a confessing heretic of the most obdurate and unsavoury kind?

Many regards
Odelya d’Hanguest, Begum etc. etc.


How so with respect to Lady Evelyn Meiyi?

In any event, sadly enough, publishing outlets are limited in New Eden and vetting each of their reporters and/or members is impractical. Perhaps we should also refrain from posting on the IGS which.. is certainly filled with publishers who are heathens, heretics, apostates,"of the most obdurate and unsavoury kind?"

Lady Aspenstar

I see now that I was confusing Evelyn Meiyi with Bai'xao Meiyi. My apologies. But aren’t they related so that heresy and treason runs in their blood?

There are certainly many valid justifications not to post on the IGS, but it is a neutral ground. A good reason not to post here is the formless and sloppy way of addressing people, with no care for names and signatures. Are we all in such a rush that we cannot write the other's name while we are addressing him or her and forget to mention our own?

Many regards
Odelya d'Hanguest, Begum etc. etc.

Hopefully my submission will not be too graphic. I worked hard on it, and it is an account of true events.

Begum d'Hanguest,

They are related, but I would hardly call them birds of a feather, and I think they'll agree. For what it's worth, I place more trust in Bai than in Evelyn.

I would like to thank you from the bottom of my heart Lunarisse, both for the recognition and the opportunity to participate in this. It is not often enough that one gets the opportunity to create rather than destroy when you are a capsuleer.
