Tell Me a Story (A PIF Contest)

"I don’t wanna die Joe"

(none of us do)

"I wanna live for ever Joe!"

(such are the wasted dreams of youth)

"Joe! Joe! You’re a wizard

Won’t you make my dreams come true?"

(only one way exists my young initiate but finding the way is up to you)

 

Hello, I am Joe Wizard. Ultra-cool if i don't say so myself.  My young apprentice, Wolfbane, is searching for immortality.  Foolish boy. But there is a way. Tell me a story. Great rewards will be yours if you please me.

 

Gold 600 points

Silver 300 points

Bronze 150 points

5 Honourable mentions  at 30 points each

 

BUT ... no prose! Tell me your story in poetic form. Free style, rhyming, form ... whatever it is that allows you to enter the realm of immortality. I wish you well.
