Finished
[CSP] Chapter 2: Ancient Prophecies

Prompt:

We don't know much about the Chiss offshoot that attacked us. However, We have learned that they were considered religious Zealots. With the help of our keen intelligence division, we were able to retrieve some of their sacred texts. Write 2-3 Haikus that gives us more information about the Chiss spiritual belief system!

Grading:

  • Submission will be graded by this Haiku rubric.

  • Ties will be resolved by earliest submission time.

Rules:

  • This is a haiku, so you must follow the 5-7-5 syllable/stanza count.

  • Submissions must be either a .doc, .docx file, .pdf or in the text box.

  • No Google Drive Links Will Be Accepted

  • Do Not Plagiarize! Plagiarism will be reported to the Justicar. Please don’t give Kamjin work. We love him. But not that much.

  • All work must be your own in its entirety. This means no AI for this competition.

  • Have fun and be creative!

Oasis awaits
The prophet fortold our right
We survived terrors

Our prophet knows all
Shus'all'ketel spoke tenants
Followed to the tee

Oaisis protects
Our blood driven from Csilla
The path is now closed

5-7-5
1. Who are the chiss now? Lost and scattered like the wind, forever in service.
2. He who has known one. Will say they are a kind folk, colorful in nature.
3.They dance like the moon, forever captive in their chains,Let them have justice.

As was prophesied / The Chiss face their Ascendancy / All who stand must kneel

Through the fog, blades shine.

Liquid red on the stone ground.

Echoes of searing, all around.

Fear resounded around.

The atmosphere soiled by its presence.

Turmoil resulting with sinister smiles.
