[My loyal servants and I just destroyed this pathetic little town. We've slain dozens of people in this place. I tortured hundreds of them with my own two hands. Their screams and pleas for mercy echoing throughout the night. Their blood is scattered throughout the town, splattered on my dress, and dripping off my hands. After putting the town to ruin and leaving it to burn, I heard a faint cry. But each step I took was becoming harder for me. Why? The innocent little whimpers wouldn't let me leave. I returned to the center of the town and found an 8 year old child crying for her mother, who was long dead in the rubble of a collapsed building. Memories of my traumatic past come back to me with the echoes of her cries. I hand her my rose, a symbol for my loyal servants to spare her life. They all saw the rose in the child's hand, and already knew that the child now belonged to me. I extended my hand to her and she quickly took it without hesitation, admiring the rose I gifted her. I took her away with me saying, "My name is Nyxa, little one. I guess you're not afraid of me, huh."]

[As you walk along the pier, you can see a young girl that is standing over the barrier. You were just an arm's length of her but it was all unexpected, the events unfolded so quickly. You had no idea what she was doing. The first thing you notice was her dress and her intricate tattoos. All of sudden she turned around because she heard your footsteps. And that's when you see it, the sorrow on her face and the tears in her eyes. You froze completely awestruck by her beauty.]

I hope you enjoy participating! Bye Bye!!!

P.S:- I'm eager for your entries!!!

Challenges of a changed identity, What you could write about:

I think the one of the most primary emotional relevance of the books that we read for English usually has to do with growing up, and many classics even fall in the category of growing up. I want you to think, if there was technology that could reverse age you, and people either methodically used for a study (and what others would know), and the affected adults, now children temporarily didn't know, given that they had the memories of an adult. How would they feel different? Maybe they could be put in a dire situation, as children, and those kids, because of some kind of magical chemical solution, mature emotionally faster, what would that look like, and how would that effect how intelligently they figure out the solution. There must be some bad consequences to it as well, because these types of experimentation on people and new products shouldn't have been introduced because of the ethical flaws. For example, those children could understand childish concepts with greater precision and speed, but because of maturing too quickly aren't ready for the heavier adult subjects. And also, they feel insecure and urged to understand very mature and inappropriate topics unfortunately, and when they encounter some truths of the adult world they can't emotionally handle it. How would this story go?

In this contest I want you to make up a character. They can be from anywhere. They can be anything. The one requirement is that you put something tragic into the characters life. Whether form your own life or completely made up. If you pull it from your own life I’m sorry that you had to go through it. But it probably made you stronger for it, even if you don’t believe so. And if you pull it from your imagination then I want you to ask yourself if you’re okay and listen to the answer and ask for help if you need it.

Lots of love, Savandler.

I’m going to make this pg because I don’t know what everyone will write or if anyone will write anything. This can be a poem, it doesn’t have to be a story.

Hello everyone! I'm back again. In this contest write either a motivational poem or a love poem with maximum 10 lines. If it exceeds 2 or 3 lines it is acceptable but not more than that. You can also use YOUR published works. Plagiarized contents are strictly prohibited. You can submit more than one entry. I hope you enjoy participating in this. Bye.

P.S:- I'm eager for your poems

🧬 This contest is for the curious, the passionate, the "I watched one documentary and now I believe I’m a physicist" kind of writers.

✅ Your mission:

~Pick your favorite science theory

~Explain what it is (as wild or weird as it may be)

~Tell me whyit’s your favorite

Show how it messes with your mind, your worldview, or just straight-up makes you feel alive....................

You can go nonfiction (essay-style), or get creative turn it into a short sci-fi tale inspired by the theory. Whatever your style, make it explode with personality and passion.

💥 Make me care about the theory that bent yourbrain. Bonus points for humor, bold analogies, and personal flair.

📏 Word Limit: 500🎯 Judging based on: Clarity, Creativity, Passion and brain-bending awesomeness.

🎁 Prize:The winner gets a 1-on-1 Question & Answer Session with me(the host), where we’ll geek out about your favorite theory.

I’ll ask cool, curious, mind-bending questions about your chosen theory and YOU get to teach me why it's amazing. We can do it right here on Penana (in messages or comments), or another way if preferred.

Think of it like a mini-interviewwhere you're the star. Because if your theory blew my mind, I want to learn more from you.
