"I'm sorry, Cad. I-I don't know why-"
"Sh, Tender. It's alright. With the others, I'm not so sure she would've lived anyway. Thank you for making it quick."
"You're thanking me, for getting your daughter killed?"
"Yes. Let's get back to work, huh?"
"Sure, Cadelon. Sure..."

DOLCE NETTARE
Due to the pain Cadelon has been experiencing, Tender has decided to sweeten things up a bit. Remember back at the beginning, when you chose your flowers for you character forms? Well, this is when they come into play. Take an image of that flower and place it into your entry. Subsequently, your tribute will find it, reveling in the smell and feel of it in their hands. Because you all chose this specific flower, we want to see the resemblance between it, and your tribute.
Then, the dolce nettare (translated into "Sweet Nectar") fills your veins as you begin to drift into another world. A story transcends of your tribute's dreams.
It is time for the Game Makers to truly believe in your tributes. Not just in winning the Games, but in being a person.
Tell us, what does your tribute dream of, on their sweetest night?
WORD COUNT:
It's that time of the Games. There is no word count.
KILLS/BALLOTS:
No kills, two ballots.
DEADLINE:
Your deadline is Friday, December 4th at 9:00 EST. I apologize for the awkward deadline last time, so take SEVEN DAYS to write.
DEATH/BALLOT CONSEQUENCES:
I personally want these entries to have nothing holding them down. I've suspended the consequences for this task.
SPONSORSHIP BONUSES:
Cadelon: "For you, please take this as an example of my leadership in knowing at you'll have a restful night sleep filled without worries of being discovered. A Chameleon trench coat that makes you blend into your surroundings almost restfully."
Tender: "Times are reasonably tough and in the arena, things are doubled with the tension. There are significant things I'd like to understand more about you, and because of this, Danelieux and Electra both will be receiving miniature tiger cubs. Kind of out there? Yes, but sometimes we need a little extra boost."
Odysseus: "Ah Amelia, life seems to hold tragedies over you left and right doesn't it? Accept this as an offering of my...Gratitude for everything you've done, I love the shockers. Take this shirt and remember me. For Corradhin, a sleep bad seems necessary. For once let you feel home, and just for that significant touch, it smells like Beckett."
Cyleon: "It's been awhile since I worked on showing everyone just how in control I can be. Sure Cadelon and Tender have played their games but what about you say I turn the odds by giving you the chance of redeeming yourself through a night of excitement. You get to decide what you see in your dreams."
EXTRA INFORMATION:
Nothing important, but welcome to the Quarterfinals. You've all made it far, and made it into our hearts. We wish you luck.
Our best regards,
Cadelon, Tender, Odysseus
