Welcome to Gaia! ::

For our first gaia anniversary we would like to celebrate by making an opening for a stage 2~
Since we only have a few eligible, we aren't going to make an auction or anything. Instead we wanted to try kickstarting some rp, even if solo.

How to participate: Select one of the following prompts and write a short story of at least 1k words then submit it to your Ash's profile journal. It should follow your ash's journey and may include any abominations you might have. Shop patrons are allowed to appear, but most of the story should follow the ash in particular.

Deadline: May 31st midnight pst
Once the deadline rolls over, Dea and I will read the submissions and choose the most creative one to win the stage 2 growth slot.

What we'll be looking for: Good adventure, could be fun, dramatic, dark, whatever tone you feel suits your ash the most, and maybe some introspective into the mind of your ash~ They don't even necessarily have to succeed in the mission prompt, but the journey should be worthy~



Prompt 1: Pai wants a sample of a particular fruit that only grows inside a magical garden in a bordering land. The garden is wild though and full of all sorts of whimsy, wonder, and danger both plant and animal alike.. Traverse through the garden to find the desired fruit: a singing apple, and return it to Pai who waits (lazily) back at the cafe.... Its unclear if Pai wants the apple as an ash ingredient... or for a tart.


Prompt 2: Sen has heard of a special ore that grows deep inside a towering mountain. To get there though, one has to climb said mountain which is dangerous enough with its wild forests and rugged, snow capped peak. Once inside the secret tunnel though, one has to deal with all sorts of other dangers including anything that might be living it in as well as the molten like rivers of the mountain's core. The ore is very recognizable though, standing out from its harsh surroundings by giving off a soft violet glow, its surface glimmering like stars.. Return the ore to Sen at the cafe and he'll happily get to work on it making all sorts of wonderful things.

unfortunately no qualifying posts were submitted gonk
