Herewith a beautiful creation to inspire thee at the mid point of our current Quest - HO, HO, POE - MERRY CHRISTMAS... and to further remind thee of the fabulous CANDY that awaiteth one lucky winner. To discover the deets for thyself... SCROLL DOWN...........
Beloveds,
It doth please The Master muchly to announce that he hath now 104fantastically fabulous Followers and hath taken it upon himself to reward thee with a fine selection of CANDY that shalt dazzle thine eyes to behold......
+ 3 Plates of Rubber Stamps :-)
Now Beloveds, I suspect that thou art champing at the bit to procure these delights for thyselves so herewith are the Rules...
Thou must be a Follower of The Master here at QUOTH THE RAVEN AND thou must leave a suitably sycophantic and adulatory comment for The Master.
Doeth both these things and thou shalt be entered into the aforesaid DRAW.
Feel free to spreadeth the word if thou so desireth :-D
The Candy Draw will run until 1 moon's full passing to 3rd JANUARY 2014
So now - thy current Quest #27 shalt be ....HO, HO, POE - MERRY CHRISTMAS.
Thou art to create for The Master a creation fit for the coming festivities - however - they canst be only fit for his dark and stormy nature..... bringeth not thy slushy mushies and images of puke rendering cuteness, for The Master shalt be sore aggrieved. :-)
Herewith the darkling creations of his Minions....
Hie now and begin thy ministerings - albeit thou hast many task to perform this Christmastide, but I hope thou shalt find time for a small offering, lest The Master sink into the depths of deep dark depression whilst attempting to dodge the gay festivities !!
This shalt be thy Prize..
Perchance to leave thy offering here. (In the interests of fair play - NO BACKLINKING).
I come to thee this day in haste..... the god of thunder and lightning Zeus, is most displeased here at my abode and hath struck many times these past days. His fury is mighty and he hath taken from us the power of the Devil and we abideth without light nor heat. The Master doth sit in sore desolution without the comforts of hot water, heat and is in the depths of darkness come sunset :-(
Now we hasten to the Victors of QUEST #25............ The Master doth choose -
The Master hath also chosen these 3 Supplicants (in no particular order) and applauds thee for thy offerings. Take thee also thy Badges of Honour.........
This shalt by necessity be quick my Beloveds whilst I tell thee of thy latest Quest.... #26 COLOUR BINGPOE... without further ado, herewith thy palette.
Thy Challenge be to create for The Master anything that ye shalt desire using ANY 3 colours from ANY ONE LINE, be it across, up and down or the diagonal :-)
I must fly now lest I be struck by the wrath of Zeus and I leave thee to the Minions of The Master.
Beloveds,

And now, without further ado, let us move forthwith to thy next QUEST 25 - POEticisms....... a poetic expression.
Herewith are some examples; Life not measured by the number of breaths we take but by the moments that take our breath away. A true friend is someone who reaches for your hand and touches your heart. If you can't be kind, at least have the decency to be vague. The three most difficult things to say :- I love you, Sorry and Help me. You never have to wait for a dog; they're ready to go 24 hours a day. I used to eat a lot of natural foods until I learned that most people die of natural causes. All of us could take a lesson from the weather. It pays no attention to criticism. OK - get it??? If you want some more/inspiration then go HERE or HERE
Herewith are the offerings of the Minions of The Master.....
Ah, My Beloveds,
The Minions of The Master are at last back together, having suffered life's trials and tribulations that hath vexed them sorely. !!! Twixt dire problems with health/succour and the dread scourge of the Devil's power /machinery they hath struggled and been fair lashed - but pulleth through with great gusto and with full might of Mojo :-)

Watcheth thee also how the Followers of The Master doth creep ever nearer to the magic number of 100. It will be with great elation that The Master shalt offer thee CANDY upon reaching the allotted number in honour of thy servitude. :-D
