"We were just about to enter battle. Neither of our sides could come to an agreement about the rights over the crystals in the Valley, so we had gathered to solve it through conflict. However, as soon as our leader returned from one last failed negotiation attempt, a bright light appeared. When it faded, I saw what looked like a god, towering above us at a height that made the entire Valley appear insignificant. A substance like blood flowed from their head and sleeves, and a halo of pale green shone over their head. The gold ornamentation of their body glimmered in the fading twilight of the setting sun as they separated our two sides with barriers of light. I felt my desire to fight leave me, and although I knew it must have been their influence, what could I do? They called for an armistice, and our leaders accepted. That being shrunk down and met them in the center of the Valley. In the end, it all worked out... though I can't help but think that so long as we refuse to become part of united society, we will always be at the mercy of these 'gods.'"

Though Edeia are powerful on their own, there are many more things they can do together—that is, when they fuse. Whether the union allows for different perspectives and approaches or allows them access to abilities that neither had on their own, fusions can accomplish things that, sometimes, their components cannot. 

Has your Edeia ever fused to solve a problem or accomplish a goal that they found difficult or impossible alone?  

Design Prompt:
Design a fusion with one or more Edeia. 

If you use someone else's Edeia as a component, you can also earn a prompt pass. 

Art Prompt:
Create artwork depicting an Edeia fusion accomplishing something that would have been difficult or impossible for their components to do on their own. Please include a blurb that illustrates the situation, whether it is dialogue, a description, or anything else. 

If someone else's Edeia is a component of the fusion, you can also earn a prompt pass. 

Writing Prompt:
Create writing featuring an Edeia fusion accomplishing something that would have been difficult or impossible for their components to do on their own. Some guiding questions: 

• What problem or goal did they want to accomplish? Was it something that they came across or something that they planned? Was it a simple or personal task, or a more dire issue? 

• Did the Edeia try to act on their own first or decide to go for fusion immediately? 

• Were the other component(s) agreeable, or did it take some convincing? 

• How was the fusion able to accomplish their goals? Was it a matter of perspective or power? 

If someone else's Edeia is a component of the fusion, you can also earn a prompt pass.

The world of Ideation is where I came from. But the place where I changed and stepped onto the path of who I am is the world of Gilded Faults. Reiu and Nisce lived in this house, in this world, for a long time after I left. And now... now, we all return when the occasion arises. Now, it is a place all three of us call home. 

— Wist 

In the winter months, many individuals return home. Some have lost a previous home and have made a new one; some have a home lasting through eternity; some have no home to return to. What does does "home" mean to your Edeia? Is it a place? Is it a person? Is it their Abstraction? Is it a whole universe? 

This prompt follows the Standard Requirements for the Art and Writing prompts. 

Design Prompt:
Design a location that  your Edeia calls home. This could be their Abstraction, a particular part of their Abstraction, a specific physical location, a place that only exists in the past, a world, etc. 

• You must depict an environmental scene, including elements of a foreground, middleground, and background. 

• Fully colored with at least minimal shading. 

• Including characters in the scene is not required. 

Art Prompt:
Create artwork depicting your Edeia in their home.  This could include more abstract interpretations of "home," such as if "home" is considered another individual. 

Writing Prompt:
Write about your Edeia spending time in their home, returning home, and/or reflecting on their thoughts about home and what it means to them.  

A flame. It offers warmth, in time of cold... yet it is so transient, bursting to life and ceasing all at once. So it begins. So it ends. 

It need not end yet. Let us hold it here, in our hands, in our hearts, and bask in the moment it lasts. It must end. Then... let us make another and start anew.

— Dusk and Dawn

In winter, many seek warmth - in both a literal and metaphorical sense. What warmth do you seek? 

• You may make three submissions for this prompt, a maximum of two for a single type. The same or different designs/Edeia can be used in different types, but for the same type you must use a different one. 

Art Prompt:
Create artwork depicting your Edeia seeking or engaging in something involving physical and/or metaphorical warmth. Perhaps they seek flame - a campfire, fireplace, some manifestation, etc. Perhaps they wrap themselves in cozy things - blankets, warm clothes, plushies, pillows, etc. Perhaps they seek companionship - friends, family, the dearly beloved in one way or another. 

• Non-Standard Background Requirement: Some background, but does not need an environment - just not transparent or entirely flat. 

Writing Prompt:
Write a scene involving your Edeia seeking or engaging in something involving physical and/or metaphorical warmth, as detailed in the art prompt.
