    And the results are in! At seven votes, with the victor eking out a win at 3 votes, and the other two tied for two votes each!

    Identifies aren't officially revealed yet, I assume @Scalenex has something taking up his time.

    Shall we wait for him to return for the results to become official, or just reveal our own works now?

    Far be it for me to deprive the powerful one of the joy of revealing identities. XD

    In some ways, I am very much like a sleepy Slann. But I will eventually awaken if my subjects request it.

    For the record, any entry that would have merely dropped the briefest of Chaos Dwarf mentions would have literally won the contest outright.

    Until next time, remember that two votes makes a big difference!
