UPDATE: WEEK FOUR ENTRIES are due by the end of day tomorrow!
Summer is here, and the Pixis are BORED. The weather is nice, but there’s nothing to DO, so they are spending all of their considerable free time driving their owners crazy.Well, the owners have had enough! A few particularly-frustrated Bagbeans and Casters got together and devised a plan to occupy their little friends. They call it: The Riddle Race! This month-long adventure is sure to cure the boredom blues!
This weekly event starts June 1st and runs for 4 weeks, with a new riddle each week!
Rise, Capi, and Tessy have been named Chief Adventurers, and have been put in charge of helping their friends find the grand prize: Star Roots!
FIVE Grand Prize Winners will Receive:
1 Star Root each!
In addition, anyone who enters at least one week will receive an Event Conch (one total for the event):
Each round will consist of one riddle, and will have a one-week deadline. You must read the riddle, and then draw your interpretation of where the Pixis should go to look, and what item they find there! There is no one right answer, but you will get points for including certain things in your drawings based on the content of the riddle, and how creatively you interpret it.
Each entry must include at least two Pixis, and one of them must be one of the starters, Capi, Rise, or Tessy. The other can be your own Pixi, if you own one. If you do not own a Pixi of your own, you may either draw two of the starters, or you can draw one of them with someone else’s Pixi (with their permission).
Without further ado, it's time to get to our first week's riddle!
Week One
Soft and downy, small white flakes
Solidify the lively lake
A breath of ice, a puffy cloud
Brittle frost covers the ground
Find me in my earthbound home
Snuggled in my chosen grove
Lanky, cold and seemingly dead
Dark thin branches overhead.
The deadline for week one's riddle is June 8th!
Week Two
Dim outside, and inside more
Shining red, a glowing core
Friendly creatures in the lake
Warn you not the gem to take
Last light sneaks between the leaves
As the prize brave Pixis will retrieve.
The deadline for week two's riddle is June 15th!
Week Three
A stalk so tall, a face so bright
My name, the opposite of night
Fields of emerald with ivory cattle
Pick the fruit, a crimson dazzle
A dragon, a glove, a colorful pop
Many children do we drop.
The deadline for week three's riddle is June 22nd!
Week Four
Rough is the grey, deep is the blue
Look between the limits of these diferent hues
Contrast in sensations, so careful should steps be
As the color over the stone is deceitful, you will see
Lower your sight, the small one cross your way
Follow them, don't hesitate, and find me in the cay
The deadline for week four's riddle is June 30th!
