Oh, time is flying like many vultures around a delicious carcass! It is now the halfway point in Einhar's mighty talent contest! I have seen some truly impressive shows of talent, Exiles! So many that I must make you look at them! Right now! Here! And in case you've missed the previous highlights, you can examine them with your eyeballs and also one with your ear flaps here.

This is a confusing one, exile. But many things are confusing to Einhar! Why do rhoa spikes face the sides? Why do rhoas not charge sideways? It makes no sense! This one is confusing because there are three Einhars in the piece, but only one Einhar in life. How can that be? Perhaps there should be more Einhars in life. Just like the confusing rhoas, I love this artwork.

What an unusual rhoa! This one does not even have spikes! Einhar feels this artwork is very worthy of admiration, or even praise! I would very much like to ride such a strange rhoa, though I do not believe it could support Einhar's mighty heft. I would not like to injure it by riding it. The First Ones do not look upon such sacrifices with pride.

'Nets and the Beasts' by batteryinfo

Exile, you must be a Hatungo like Einhar's best friend Navali. How else could you possibly know that two of my favourite things are nets and beasts? I also love surprises, and plans, and long walks through dark caves, and naps! But do not surprise Einhar during a nap, or I might grievously wound you! Hahaha!

'Einhar The Handsome' by blkzero

A year ago today we met Einhar Frey.
He said, "Hello, you have to know something special lurks this way."
Despite he wore a mask, we set out upon the task.
He said, "Get ready and stay steady, we'll have no time to bask."

A wonderful poem. What an interesting structure! This reminds me of a very memorable hunt. It was early in the morning and the sun had not yet risen. I woke to the sound of something large wandering through the woods. I found a trail of blood. It was so thick that I could not fathom what sort of beast made it! This was a first for Einhar. I followed the trail, and it turned out it was not a beast at all -- it was just blood! A big blob of blood was wandering through the forest. Very strange, yes? I had a great time hitting it with a large stick. Now I make sure to clean up all the blood after a ritual has been completed!

'The Ritual Is Complete' by Samalamage

Oh, this is a great example of one of Einhar's other favourite things -- rituals! But it looks like this one did not please the First Ones. Usually when I complete a ritual at the Blood Altar I am given a weapon, or shield, or orbs (I love orbs!!), but it seems this time the First Ones only gave me a spine. I have so many spines already! I guess it is lucky that I love them as well.

'Stupid Beast' by MichaelPersson

This one is both cute and spooky. It reminds me of my best friend Jun, who is also cute and spooky, except this is Einhar! When I look at it I feel almost hollow, but in a good way! Like an old ribcage full of rats, except the rats have left. Where did they go? It is a secret.

There are so many great submissions that I cannot possibly list them all. But do not fret, little Exiles! I will show you more of Einhar's favourites next week.
