26.9 Contenders for the next Ordination.

In order to compete for the divine Ordination, and in particular, the amethyst of time which bestows upon its owner the immortal soul of a God, you must have been victorious in a divine gem quest. Forthcoming gem quest tend to be advertised in HELP EVENTS (or HELP SCHEDULE if you prefer to list only gem-quests/ordination-related affairs). The following are contenders for the next Ordination:

_1_ Seer Cabe, the Eternal Shadow.

The contenders are those mortals victorious in one of the fourteen open gem-quests. These gem quests are held periodically and are some of the most competitive, exciting events in the Avalon calendar. Their advance schedule can be viewed in HELP SCHEDULE. Contenders eventually clash in head-to-head contests, gradually eliminating one another until only two remain. The final two face one another, with the whole of Avalon able to join the fray in one side or the other, in the amethyst quest: See HELP GEMHOLDERS and HELP GEMQUESTS for more info.
