Whispers of The Three
By Schefflera

You know what we offer:
An orb and a sword
And all that you need for the making
Of power and profit.
Foes fall at your word
And vengeance is yours for the taking.

You know what we've given:
As Darigan's lord,
Before you were enemies quaking.
By sorcery riven,
The thieves' land was torn...
The orb sought, and found, and retaken.

You know what you owe us
For power forsworn,
For art and for knowledge forsaken
By those who won't show us
The little we ask for.
Demand and receive -- or just take it.

You know how you failed us.
Too weak to reward,
Lacking greed and a high aspiration,
You thought it enough just
To retake the orb
And conquer a single small nation.

We find you now useless,
Destroy the orb,
And leave you with confidence shaken.
Now drink deep of madness,
And of power shorn,
Begone! May you never awaken.

You know what we offer.
Lord Kass, say the word.
Receive all you need for the taking
Of power and profit.
Now gird on your sword.
You're ours, and it's war you'll be making.

Requiem for a Fallen Hero
By Wind_sister_sora

They say you went as a hero,
Armor and sword bright,
Your voice was strong, your face fearless
As you led the fight.

But eventually you fell,
Or so they told me,
Pushed by Kass's paw.
No! It cannot be!

My brother, my brother,
Your words were always brave,
But I would have you living
Than visit your lonely grave.

Brother, brother,
I must lose you again,
You are always in my heart,
But I must put down my pen.

The war isn't over, brother,
I will fight, though I am not you
I will fight for Meridell,
But for you, dear brother, too.

We all mourn the loss of a great warrior,
We all have mourned our loved ones,
Daughter, son, father, mother...
But most of all, is a sister
Who misses her hero... her big brother.

Games in the Igloo Garage!
By Oasis_desert

Having their sale down in the snow,
Mika and Carassa, look at them go!
Carassa drops items for Mika to catch
Item by item, batch by batch
Mika catches, then jumps and runs!
For the two icy twins, it's all so much fun!

They dash quite neatly across the ice
Quick and nimble, fast as mice
Look! Carassa's dropped a morphing potion!
Mika darts across like a fish in the ocean
With a Chia pop shop right next door,
For Mika and Carassa, life's never a bore!

"Ooh, a dubloon! I could spend that!"
"Get on and catch, Mika, no time for chat!"
"Okay, then Carassa, let's not waste our time!"
"Good idea!" Carassa said with a chime.

A bag of sugar bunnies, a piano... watch!
A dropped Chia pop leaves a colorful blotch
In the snow you can't stay still!
Good thing they get a medical bill
What would happen, slipping up in the ice?
But anyhow, life's twice as nice!

The Weewoo's Cry
By Banana_phone

Shallow waters, blue and grey,
lap silently on the shore.
The stars come out, like twilight diamonds,
the sun shines here no more.

Night has fallen, the day is passed,
and creatures begin to wake.
They open their eyes to greet the dark,
the twilight is theirs to take.

Silence cloaks the world of night,
like a pane of delicate glass.
Yet a single note is all it takes
to shatter it, like a thing of the past.

A haunting cry from across the beach,
sadder than the mourning dove's coo.
A quavering call, a shadows song,
sounds softly, "Weewoo, weewoo".

It echoes across the waters,
which seem to be eerily still.
A lonely dirge of emptiness,
bringing dark to the spaces it fills.

Forever does she sing her song,
and forever does she weep.
Alone, eternally, she cries to the moon,
while others are fast asleep.

The dark sky pales, and the morning sun
sheds its first golden ray.
Dawn has come, and the Weewoo's song ends,
finished for another day.

And so, as the Weewoo leaves her post,
to hide away from the light.
I wonder, does nightfall
bring forth the Weewoo's cry,
or does the Weewoo's cry bring the night?

Ode to Plushie Tycoon
By Roweslab

Quickly make your plushies
and watch them slowly sell
the coming days' sales rates
will say just how well.

Your choice of worker types
and the number that you need
is the puzzle you must solve
to finish building with great speed.

And don't forget managers
you'll need those to get them done
when your job's completed
you can fire all but one.

Careful when you peek
at the plushies in your shop
if your balance is in the red
your game will abruptly stop.

Plan ahead and budget
for when the NPs roll in
when your cash on hand pops
it's time to build again.

If you make good choices,
and for low prices you don't wait,
long before the end of the month
you'll be up against the gate.
