Challenge for the Tower of Candy...er, Earth

[DemiBob]

XANTH,

There are rumors.. just silly stories, people say.. legends, myths.. of an untold, unfound store of candy, hidden somewhere within the deepest corners of the Tower of Earth, leftovers of the mighty, godlike Ahni, hollowed be her name, for future owners to find. Chocolates, sugary confections, sweets of such awesome flavor, that they can only be acquired in the lands of third world countries, where laws are loose and sugar runs freely. I'm talking about the mother load, the treasure trove, the ultimate of ultimates -- candy, unadulterated candy, pure and uncut.

The real stuff, Xanth. Her best stash. Ahni's personal trove of candy.. just waiting for a mind brave enough to look. Strong enough to consume.

You have not found this candy.

You haven't even looked for this candy.

You do not even understand candy.

Xanth..

I have but one thing to say to you.

You are hereby challenged for ownership of the Tower of Earth. I will be in contact.

And Xanth...

...I love me some sugar.

To the Challenger, the Coordinator, and the dueling community at large:

This challenge is indicative of the sorry state of magical combat on this accursed Isle. Rather than challenging to further ones research or sharpening one's skills, it is instead levied in order to procure large quantities of sugary consumables. I suspect "that woman" is behind this, but I digress. In order to uphold what little remains of the dignity of the sport of magical combat, I must accept this challenge.

Sincerely,
Xanth Van Bokkelen
Keeper of the Tower of Earth
