Enter the Void
source
Four entered the Void, only one came out again the rest lost to nothingness. The Void is a remorseless being, if you can even call it a being. I read four tales equal in despair and sadness, though each unique in their telling. Such a fine array of tales I've not seen in a while. For my part all of the entries are worthy of a point. Alas the Great Imp will only reward one. All hail the King, King Athelstan! KA receives his fifth competition point which means he only needs ONE more to receive the bronze Writers' Study Competition medal.
Down under you can read King Athelstan's winning entry:
A big thank you to everyone who submitted an entry or voted in the poll from me on behalf of all the WS Staff. This competition would be nothing without everyone who gets a Tale penned, and the quality of submissions was as excellent as ever. If you wish to read the other entries, and I recommend you do, you can check them out in the Submission or Voting thread linked underneath.
