Spread your wings. (Fan Fiction Contest)

Ladies and gentlemen, the time has come for us writers to take center stage for a time. The Black Garden as well as our friends over in Arts and Stuff are going to host a contest that is solely devoted to writers. The rules are simple. For any who wish to enter, you are tasked with writing a short little anecdote that is to have a maximum of 300 words. The location for this piece of work is to be located in the picture provided above. The deadline for entering is this Sunday(14th) at midnight. For any who wish to enter, please submit your stories by placing them in the comments. Judging will be done in two phases. The first phase will consist of a Panel of both groups reading over each story and deciding which seven are the best of the best. Once the first stage is complete, we shall hand it over to you, the audience, to decide who is ranked number one as lore master. The Winner of this contest shall receive a print of the Buried City signed by the Destiny writing team. Good luck and Be Brave.

  • Dust. It’s everywhere. On the ground, over the ruins, in the air. Somehow, it even manages its way into my suit every time I visit this waste of a planet. The Traveler? It’s not the huge orb protecting the last bastion of humanity. It’s the tiny grain of sand that hijacks its way to Earth via my loincloth. Sure, being a Guardian has its merits—humanity’s last hope and all—but damn if I don’t find dust in every last orifice for weeks after leaving this red rock. Venus may be boiling with sulfuric acid, but at least I don’t find any of that in my nether regions once I’m back home showering in the Tower. Lucky for me, the one place it doesn’t infiltrate is my rebreather. It may end up in places I didn’t even know existed, but at least I won’t die of asphyxiation. What will I die of? There’s a Cabal Legionnaire posted nearby that would be happy to send me to my eternal rest by way of his assault rifle. But I have other plans. The only good thing about coming home with dust in every crack is that I’ve used it to dye my Hunter’s cloak. It means I’m imperceptible from the red rust. So here I sit, shrouded in my perfect camouflage, waiting for the right moment. My rifle is steady. The highly modded Monitor S11 reveals the rhino-like Cabal through its scope. I squeeze the trigger. Crack. One more alien slumps to the ground, fulfilling his own destiny, on his way to becoming what he was born to become… Dust.
