[Mkguild] [TSA] Very Bad News in Our Family

[Hallan Mirayas]

I've read this five times now, and I still can't wrap my mind around it.  It's, I think, fairly common knowledge that Bard and I didn't always see eye to eye, but he was a good man with a good heart.  To think that he's gone- bam, no warning...  I don't have words for this.  Wow.  Just wow..

I hope it was at least quick and painless...
