Aylwen had skipped into the auditorium just minutes before, after a long day of Cinco de Mayo celebrations and Tae Kwon Do practices. She had frantically looked for a seat, and had found an empty one near the front row. Aylwen was hesitant to take it though, wondering why such a good spot hadn't been taken in the first place. Then the girl rolled her eyes at her foolishness and quickly took the seat just before Bêthberry took the stage.

The Eowyn Award for Heroic Self-Denial in Avoiding the Barrow Downs RPG Forums until All Homework Is Completed. Bêthberry called, and Aylwen scoffed and remembered the pile of Spanish and General Music homework she had left piled on her desk at home.

At this, a Dwarf choir began to sing All day and all of the Night. Aylwen was halfway off her seat by the end of the song, wondering who in Middle-Earth would put homework before an RPG!

Aylwen Dreamsong, this is your award!

Aylwen lifted a brow. Then she smiled and stood, practically skipping up to the stage to accept her award. She was smiling brightly, glad that she didn't have braces anymore as she heard her good friend Ithaeliel scream out support for the winner. hen she got up to the microphone, she accepted the award gratefully from Bêthberry, and commented on the choice of the choir.

Turning to the microphone, Aylwen considered what to say, for the award she had been given she certainly had not expected. "I'd like to thank the...erm...I'd like to thank Bêthberry, who runs the Rohan forum that I frequent...and...I'd like to apologize to my angry Spanish teacher for not remembering my Cinco de Mayo report. All the best to everyone tonight, may you enjoy RPGing but never become as addicted as I have, unless of course you want to be nominated for this award next year!" Aylwen realized she had begun to ramble on. "Anyways, thanks again to everyone for making this a great year for the Barrow-Downs, and almost a whole year for me!"

With one last triumphant raise of her Avoiding RPGs award, Aylwen turned away from the crowd and towards the choir. She gave them a thumbs-up, and whispered something about 'Frain being Proud' and began to walk off stage.
