Check out the Master List to find links to all of the 2021 challenge posts. Remember that there is no official deadline, so feel free to join in at any time or go back and do any prompts you've missed!

If you are inspired to answer with art, vid, or other media, we’d love for you to share what you created. If you create any fanworks, feel free to add them to our AO3 Collection.



Prompt 4: The Furies
The Furies, also known as the Erinyes, are a trio of vengeance deities whose immortal task is to hear complaints of insolence from mortals—and to punish those crimes by hounding the culprits relentlessly. They are said to focus on punishment for lying, killing, or sinning against the gods, but any lawbreaking was indeed punishable by them.

“Alecto was the oldest, unceasing in anger. Megaera was next, retaliator of jealousy, and Tisiphone, the last, regarded as the avenger of murder.”
― Elisabeth Naughton, Stolen Fury

Maybe you are inspired by Alecto (“the implacable one”, incites war), or perhaps Megaera (“the envious one”, vengeance) speaks to you, or maybe even Tisiphone (“avenger of murder”, guards the gates to Tartarus) – however you want to interpret the prompt, we’d love to hear from you!




Bonus Prompt: Typhon


Please feel free to respond in whichever way comes naturally to you, be it thoughts that you share or a work that you create. If you’d like a more specific idea to kick things off: share a song or music video that reminds you of the Furies theme.

So, for this one I chose to translate a korean cover of a song where the ORIGINAL (in japanese) certainly fit the theme, but I'm not sure that my translation of said korean cover fits as well. But I'm pretty sure it's more a lack of skill on my part that's not picking up on subtleties. Oh well. I'm still sharing a song that makes me think of the theme!
Here you go!

I did a moodboard and a poem. I also included a video of an opera scene of Orpheus confronting the Furies at the gates of hell, and of the TV show Lewis an episode of which references the Furies, too.
