⌗ᆞノ Each participant had already received a glowing, enchanted scroll-sent by none other than 𝗔𝗲𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿, the regal Queen of the 𝗖𝗲𝗹𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗮𝗹 𝗢𝗮𝘀𝗶𝘀, a majestic realm beyond the clouds. Upon opening the scroll, they were transported to a place few had ever seen: the magnificent Celestial Oasis, where stars whispered tales of magic and wonder.

With royal grace, Queen Aether welcomed the participants. Her mission was clear-to seek out those with 𝗵𝗶𝗱𝗱𝗲𝗻 𝗽𝗼𝘄𝗲𝗿𝘀 destined to protect the universe through the art of storytelling.

Now, it was time to announce the 𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗺𝗽𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀, those whose stories had captured the very essence of the cosmos. The 𝗿𝗲𝘄𝗮𝗿𝗱𝘀 bestowed by Queen Aether would forever mark their journey as 𝗹𝗲𝗴𝗲𝗻𝗱𝗮𝗿𝘆.
