For the February Challenge we decided on something fundamental: Good and Evil.

Tolkien's world is a wonderful playground to explore such an essential question. What makes a person good or evil? Is it even possible to draw the line somewhere? Look at the ring - is it evil in itself or does in only bring to the surface what is evil in a person to begin with? What about a character like Gollum? Can he even be place into one of those categories?

This month Teitho challenges you to write a story that deals with these categories of good and evil. Present us with a character that is thoroughly good and then turns evil. Show us a good person who needs to do something bad to achieve something positive. Or the other way round... you choose!
