Wordler Village Dispatches from a Cursed REALM
A wizard has cursed the REALM.
To fend off the devastation, a Wordler is called to duty each morning on a quest to hold back the curse for one more day.
A Protective Word must be found by sunset each day. The consequences otherwise would be unthinkable…
Inspired by the international word puzzle phenomenon, Wordler Village celebrates the power of words and the spirit of those who use them.

A wizard has cursed the REALM. Each morning, a Wordler is chosen to find the Protective Word that will stave off the land's destruction for one more day... Today, YOU will be the one to undertake a unique creative journey. Applicants will be assigned one of 52 Protective Words, selected for you at random from the Word Wizard's own private vocabularuy. Use your Word as a prompt to create something awesome and original--a short story, an epic poem, a masterpiece of visual art, or a lifesize sculpture of the Eiffel Tower made entirely from bubble gum. For stories, aim for the 500- to 2000-word range using any genre, any style, or any topic that allows the REALM to retain its PG-13 rating. If your quest is successful, your creative work will appear in PageDAO Magazine and in a collective work minted to the PageDAO Readme Collection. The grateful denizens of Wordler Village will fete your accomplishment, reward you with $PAGE and contributor copies, and inscribe your name in the Wordler Hall of Fame. Apply on DeWork.Collect
