I have three stories this year that would qualify and I wish to enter:

[But Mama I don’t want the wind](https://forums.eveonline.com/t/storytime/201045/83)  
[How the God lost His name, and the Khanid their God](https://forums.eveonline.com/t/storytime/201045/72)  
[Why is the sea salty](https://forums.eveonline.com/t/storytime/201045/67)

The middle one could qualify as theological text, but I do not think the competition will see it similarly to me, so I suppose these are all prose.

Spirits at your back.

> The salt mill story is, obviously, a retelling of a well-known European legend / fairy tale. I have not followed any particular telling knowingly (though I cannot rule out subconscious borrowing of phrasings but put it to words and set it to context on my own. I am not sure how this relates to the competition’s rules on plagiarism; if it breaks them I trust the judges won’t consider it.
