[color=indigo] You are out gathering one day when a pristine white rabbit approaches you. You are tempted to kill it and bring it back to your food hoard, but something prevents you from doing so. You are curious about why such a small and vulnerable creature would approach a mighty dragon. Upon getting closer to the rabbit, you notice it has something in it's mouth- a scroll, which it drops at your feet before sprinting away, vanishing into the darkness.
You pick up the scroll. Upon unraveling it, a puff of glittering smoke comes out, reshaping the scroll to the perfect size for you to read it. The pristine, ink-black handwriting reads the following:
[color=black] [quote][font=Monotype Corsiva][size=7]Welcome to The Poet's Tea Party! [/size]
[size=6]
Dear Honourable Guest, you have been invited to a tea party in the Forum of the Obscured Crescent. The gathering will last the week of August 11th to August 17th and you are free to come any time that week. You have received this invitation because your writing skills have been noticed and appreciated throughout Sornieth- only the most elite writers have been invited!
At the end of the week, all guests will come together to vote on which tea party guests have written the best works. And yes! There will be marvelous prizes for the winners! [/size]

[color=indigo] Upon making the trek to the Forum of the Obscured Crescent, you are greeted by a shiny Coatl dragon, guarding the entrance to the Forum. Behind him, you can see many festive decorations- jars of glowing mushrooms and fireflies lighting the usually dark place, tables decorated with intricate tablecloths and ribbons, and many booths selling delicious smelling food. You hand your invitation to him.
