Filling the Cauldron is launching a special photo contest open to everyone and with some very special prizes.

Elicio’s store, Cerridwen’s Cauldron, offers a marvellous, magical setting both in the air and on the ground. All we’re asking you to do is visit Cerridwen’s Cauldron and capture some of that magic. It doesn’t matter if you select a part of the skyborne store or the ground-level landscape. Simply capture all or part of the region in a way that captures its beauty and magic.

Ground level – Cerridwen’s Cauldron

In return, the following prizes are up for grabs:

• 3rd place: items from Cerridwen’s Cauldron worth up to L$750
• 2nd place: items from Cerridwen’s Cauldron worth up to L$1,000
• 1st place: an original piece of real world art by Elicio himself, delivered to you in-world and to your home.

Ground level – Cerridwen’s Cauldron

There are a few simple rules for the competition:

• No more than two submissions per entrant
• The goal is to take a photo of Cerridwen’s Cauldron. It can be of the store areas or the ground level areas
• Avatars are permitted in photos, but should not be the focus of an image

So, Don’t delay, hop over to Cerridwen’s cauldron today, grab your snaps and join the fun!

We’re moving ahead with Filling the Cauldron, the event to support Elicio Ember and his family. Already the Design a Garden contest is filled and designers are hard at work. We’re also  receiving applications from DJ, entertainers, artists and volunteers na dahre still looking for more!

Work is continuing in preparing Holly Kai Park – so if you see bits of work going on her and there, please pardon any mess. Hopefully, things are only having minor tweaks, so you should notice too much changing!

In fact the biggest change is to the Storyteller’s Circle in the south-east corner of the park. The tree circle and the paths have been removed to make way for Cerridwen’s Corner, a store area where Elicio’s creations will be on sale, with all proceeds going to Elicio and his family.

Designed by Judi Newall using items created by Elicio to present a little corner of his home region, Cerridwen’s Corner. What’s more, not only will the Corner be selling many of Elico’s creations, if there is anything you cannot find there, a teleport will take you to and from his store at Cerridwen’s Cauldron, giving you immediate access to all of his items!
