Celebrating the Fallen

-NOT JACKDAW-

Greetings Travance, I feel bad both how often I'm putting stuff up on your board and the late notice of this. I am recently of the town of Grimwyr, and in escaping we lost a lot of people, good people, friends and family. We are all planning a vigil at 2 am as Saturday becomes Sunday, and if anyone wishes to attend they can see the discussion about that.

But... well, my family gets into a lot of fights, and a lot of us go to Galamachis. We see the Reaper as an old friend waiting to take us to the Judge, and well it never sat well to usher off your family to an old friend with grim tidings. I entirely respect anyone who needs that time to grieve and to miss those they've lost, but where I come from you don't just mourn their loss, you celebrate their lives. You drink, you tell all the embarrassing stories about the person you couldn't when they were around. We cry and then we laugh about it.

I understand you've all lost people as well, so after the vigil hit up this Dragon's Claw of yours, for a traditional Hibernian wake. I thought I'd ask if anyone wants to join me. I would love to have a few, and toast to the heroes that have laid down their lives to get us to the place we are today.

I will be there Campion. You know I will.

You can expect me as well, old friend.

I would be honored to join you.

Should it please those celebrating, I will gladly listen to your tales. A good life is as important to remember as a good death is honor.

The ferryman Rota Gibde compels his children to join their fellow man in mourning, and never to spurn those newly bereft. I'll surely be there to join you in the marriage of grief and celebration.

I will most certainly be present for this.

I’ve lost a loved friend.
Please, never drink as it’s dangerous.
Sadness and alcohol could reap more sad things.

May we all live

Dr. Willlowyn,
Why is drinking dangerous? My understanding is that one needs liquids to survive. Are you concerned one might drown themselves trying to properly hydrate?

-Lucky

I do apologise for not being at the Vigil. I was quite exhausted after fighting so many falsehoods after the feast.

-Lucky

We all understand, Lucky. It is a shame to have missed you. It was beautiful. Though you and the others who were not able to attend will be glad to know that Matilda Smith made it out after all, God be praised.

My sincerest thanks to the Travancians who stood guard at the lakefront so we could hold our vigil uninterrupted.
You have shown us nothing but kindness and support. Thank you.
