Prisoner -part one-

When Eliroh, a member of an infamous gang of thieves, is captured by the royal guards, he thinks his life is over. But nothing could have prepared him for the nature of his imprisonment.
I have to admit, while I know how cliched it is, I do like this one. I think it's one of my favourites at the moment, especially Eliroh. Of all my characters so far, I like him best.

Prisoner -part five-   Taron stood at the main gates of the castle, peering through the bars into the grounds. He wasn’t expecting to see a lot - most of the secrets of the castle’s grounds were hidden, as so many good secrets are, though what he was looking for wasn’t something that belonged in such a grand place. And it wasn’t a secret he imagined they wanted to keep.      The guards patrolled the grounds, paying him no mind as long as he appeared to pose no threat, not recognising him for who he was, and for a long while they were all he could see. A few faces he recognised, fresh in his mind from th Prisoner -part five-

Plans Unplanned   “Where is she?!” Leif exclaimed, agitated. “She was supposed to be here an hour ago!”      “Don’t get so worked up,” Raith tried to console him. “It’s hardly the heist of the century.”      “That’s not the point! It was supposed to be the three of us. We were supposed to get our tattoos together!”      “There’s no guarantee we’ll even get our tattoos after this.”      “But we stand more of chance with all of us!”

The Court Magician   The tails of her purple robe swirled around Tiilea’s ankles as she strode down the corridor. This was not her usual robe - her usual robe was silver, the uniform robe of the Court Magician, but such attire was not suited to the task she had only recently completed.  
    She could not deny that nature was beautiful, the heart of everything that was and ever will be, but neither could she deny the grimy imprint it often left on its visitors - the mud that painted her lower legs and the twigs tangled in her dark hair were proof enough of this.        Turning a co The Court Magician

Prisoner -part four-   “You seem troubled sire,” the maid observed as she brought him in some fresh clothes. “Is something the matter?”      “You mean other than the fact that this morning I was a thief, and now I’m suddenly a prince?”  Eliroh watched as she placed the clothes on a chair, neatly folded and pressed. The shirt was brightly coloured blue, the kind of colour that would cost a lot for any regular person to even find, and the trousers were a deep, majestic black. It was impossible to tell without handling them, but he was almost certain that they would be made of as rich a Prisoner -part four-

Prisoner -part three-   Princess Sephina barely noticed her surroundings, as she walked towards the dining hall. Ever since her encounter with the prisoner in the dungeon, she’d found herself on edge. Could she really have seen what she thought she’d seen? It seemed impossible, yet it had been there, clear as day. She would have liked to discuss this with her parents, but rarely did she see them on busy days such as this, when matters of state were their top priority. But no matter, they would be there for dinner. She could speak to them then.      Her mind had been whirling all day. She knew by now that the tortu Prisoner -part three-

Dragon's Journey -part one-

   Dragons. What do you envision when you hear that word? Ruthless, bloodthirsty beasts? That is what people in Trillathe’s village thought, the reason they’d hidden their village from the creatures, nestled amongst the craggy peaks of the icy mountains. To hide from these legends.      But legends were all they were. Dragons in fact were gentle creatures, and, contrary to what many thought, did not only have one form. When they wished, they could melt and twist their flesh, become human in shape with the palest skin, ice-blonde hair, piercing blue eyes, yet with their own individual beauty. B
In a world where dragons are feared by humans, and humans distrusted by dragons, the one who lives in most discomfort is a half-dragon. All his life he has managed to keep his secret, but when another dragon needs his aid, can he rise to the challenge?
It took a while to write this one, but I'm fairly happy with how it turned out. Two parts to this, a link is provided in the artist comments.

Journal Entry: Wed Nov 11, 2009, 4:55 AM
:[EDIT]: I apologise for the time it's taking to judge. I am still awaiting the scores from the other judges.

Here we are then, the deadline has passed and some fantastic entries have been submitted. Thanks to all that entered.

Obviously, not everyone can win, and the quality of the entries are going to make judging very difficult for myself and the judges. As I have said before, six of the entries will go through to the semi-final round, where they will be put to the vote via a poll for two weeks. Due to the amount of entries only those who go through will be noted about the results, but they will be posted here for those who are interested to see the results.

For now though, while judging takes place, take a look at the wondeful entries we have. Make sure to full view and let the artists know what you think. :D

Hey! I'm nineteen and a university student, studying advertising and marketing. I love writing fantasy stories in my spare time, and many people who don't know me might consider me a dork. And maybe I am, but who cares? Single, if anyone's interested (';p), but I enjoy going out with my friends, and, er... that's it, I guess. Yeh, I'm not a very interesting person.

Btw, in the pic above, I am the one on the right, in the skirt. The one on the left is *Heroisagirl, my friend since primary school. :D
