This is now closed! Thank you so much to everyone who entered. I am genuinely ASTONISHED by the amazing beautiful and detailed entries our community was able to create 🥹 this is going to be SO HARD to judge.

[DragonSnake]

Hello everyone! I return here to finally judge the competition.
I want to thank everyone who entered again for their participation, it makes me so happy to see the community excited over tea and i's collab! Please know that you all did an amazing job, and this was super hard to pick. I want to give you all a personal message to thank you for your entry.

DevinWyldeHeart- I really enjoyed this read! I liked your use of traditional warriors themes, but with a unique twist in some of the language. I was disappointed that it ended so soon, I wanted to read more! But I think you tied it up well. The writing was great and I really got a sense for CometChaser's personality and role in his clan.

Alizba- I liked the art you made for this cat, they were so charming. I also enjoyed the way you made them into a supernatural type of force for your clan! The animations are really cute. It left me wanting to know more about Moon'Halo and their motivations. I think you answered the prompt very well!

0Zero0 - This was such a joy to read, i really loved the backstory you gave for Eclipse and the reasoning for her existence. The story of Solus was funny but also charming, I love the three parents, I'm sad they had to give up their child and that she couldn't join them, but I hope she was able to use her gift for good and gain the respect of her clanmates. I also really liked all the visual elements, formatting and art you used!

WetPaint23 - What a compelling story! I am fascinated by Apus and how you personified him and his mother, although the way his story ended was quite tragic. I wish we got to know more about what happened to him, why the stars claimed him! I was really impressed by how you interpreted the prompt, personifying the stars and making them into their own characters and force of nature is so unique. I also enjoyed the visuals and audio accompaniment; the soundtrack was great to read alongside.

SkyWishes21 - I'm truly in awe of the effort you put into this entry. Genuinely amazed by how hard you must have worked to pull off the text-based adventure game, with multiple versions of illustrated parts- super pleased by all the graphical content you included, and gosh!! that cover art <3 so pretty. I think that the twine game was certainly one of the most truly unique concepts I've ever seen for a contest entry, and it was a blast to read. Super entertaining and enjoyable, very amusing at times. I just wish there was maybe a couple other branching pathways, but I realize that might have been difficult with the constraints. I wish it didn't end! I also loved your interpretation of making them an oracle for the stars.

lacke - God I adore this entry so much. I absolutely LOVE how much you built Ilyris into the lore of your world, how they're the catalyst for so much that's to come, how they protect Solace- I just know that they would be a critical part of your clan. Overall the story was super well written and I was captivated, and I'm very impressed by all of the art pieces, music and extras that you provided. I loved listening to the playlists while i was reading, and I liked how the twisted stars are sort of an antagonist, not to mention the pmv! The lore of your world is so fascinating. You spoiled me! Stellar job!!


This contest was incredibly difficult to judge, and i went through the entries over and over trying to grade them and get a feel for my favorite. In the end, I had extreme difficulty picking between two- but one entry just kept calling to me and lingering in my mind.
That's why I'd like to congratulate and award lacke with the honor of safeguarding Ilyris on their travels through the stars! I could not stop thinking about your entry, thank you so much.

However, i have a few more prizes to give out!
Because of the overwhelming level of effort presented by your entries (seriously, all three of you went above and beyond and you made this quite difficult), i would like to give an unlimited rare, custom lined, MYO ticket to SkyWishes21, 0Zero0, and WetPaint23! I will also open a *free* custom slot to each of you three, so that if you so choose, I volunteer to create this MYO for you! (Please note however that this slot won't carry over into a *second* cat if you choose to make the MYO yourself.) You can reach out to me in private to discuss details!
And for Alizba and DevinWyldeHeart, i want to thank you both for putting in your entries and making this contest so lively! Your contributions are truly appreciated! I would also like to award the both of you an unlimited rare MYO.


Thank you, one final time, to everyone who entered. I'm truly sorry that I couldn't send you all home with #250, but I hope these prizes make up for it. I hope to see you all in future contests!
