As the year draws to an end, I am pleased to finally announce the conclusion of an essence contest for Lord Abhorash, the Hegemonist, in which the total accrued energy derived from offerings at His shrines were tallied. I acknowledge the efforts of all participants, of which they are many, and encourage you to seek me out, if your interest has grown in the Progenitor.

Given the length of the hunt, the prizes for the top three have been increased. The results are as follows:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Ranked first that was secured through a relentless pace early in the competition is Tanthilos.
It earns 70 credits.

Bulldozing through individuals seeking to claim second from him is Bazias.
He earns 45 credits.

In third place, winning by a very tiny difference of 1249, is Akarn.
He earns 25 credits.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

We hope that the spill of sanguine has grown your strength, honed your bloodlust, and whetted your appetite for more.


I am,
Elene Arcan-Tetzauh
His Reaver of Oidhre
