Insouciance

I am a very unspoiled and naive person, and therefore I can't even imagine what could have been censored in Arandor's New Year's wish. It would be great if someone could share their guesses.
The story about Risve, Ebone, and Shoke, despite its serious plot, greatly amused me. However, the ending was disappointing...
The hand of a master is visible in everything. The author continues to delight with detailed details and vivid descriptions. I didn't quite understand all the images (a samurai and a black man...).
Aretz perfectly conveyed the users' feelings about the instability of the forum server. Damn spam bots, or rather, mapbots.
Adventure doesn't really fit into the Hive theme, but it was still interesting to read. I'm sure that in a year or two of traveling, the main character will be able to become the ideal man for Alisa...
And thanks to Koshi's story, I learned that there are many non-humans among the forum users.
Nebka read it a few weeks ago. Overall, I was amused, but I had doubts about whether a Heroes fan would perceive this work well. Fortunately, it seems they did.

In any case, I am very pleased with this competition and thank everyone for their hard work.
