The little rendering Plot bunny... One night I woke up and had a scene in my mind. It resulted in getting up immediately and setting it up in my rendering program; but it took far more than 2 months to actually complete the scene. I have thought for quite some time about writing a story around this picture myself. But then, while chatting with my friend Kharessa, I came to a much better idea. How about letting *other* authors write something about this? This is the picture (you can click on it to open a bigger, detailed version - but be careful, it may take some time to load - 440k). To find out what you actually see in the picture, scroll down; I have added a detailed description at the end of this page. Here's the task: Write a story around this picture. There are only some things that I ask of you:
If you need more information on the scrolls, please scroll down. And if you should need a different rendering angle - maybe over Elladan's shoulder or something like that - just email me and I will happily do this for you! And this is the prize: Of course, there will be a little reward for the ones who actually write the story. For the three stories I like best, I will render a picture which will be added to the actual picture, and you will get a personal desktop background from me. For example, if your story would result in a, well, slashy Elladan/Gil-galad story, the picture could look like this (of course, *if* someone comes up with a story like that, the 'dream' image will be different, depending on the scene which is actually described in the story!) : This little competition will close on the 31st of December, 2003. If you should have no idea what to write about this picture but still like the idea, please feel free to email the link of this site to your friends - maybe they have an idea :-) Here's the detailed description of the picture. Elrohir is standing next to Elladan who obviously fell asleep in a chair. There are some scrolls, one on a table between the chair and Elrohir and another one that Elladan has on his knees. The scrolls read as following: The scroll on the table is written in Sindarin: Gil-Galad nant aran edhellen The scroll on Elladan's knees: On the right side of this scroll there's a picture of Ereinion Gil-galad (by the way, please keep in mind that my Ereinion has *red* hair!). Over his chest, the words 'Gil-galad' are written. The left side (partly hidden) is also written in Sindarin and reads as following: Gil-galad dangen ne medu auth, Sauron penio ho ne lech. The book on the table: There is also a book on the table behind Elladan's chair, but it is too dark to actually recognize the cover, so this is up to your imagination ;-)
