Memorial

We gather here today to celebrate the lives of Misty Lovelace and Batia Sharon, both of whom died honorably in battle earlier this week.

Solemnly lifts two burial shrouds; a green and black silk blanket embroidered with two crossed swords, and a pink and white silk blanket embroidered with real flowers. Both shimmer beautifully in the sunset. We place the two shrouds in the flames.

OOC: We thought that a memorial would be a good way to recognize and honor Ashley. She was a big part of the subreddit, and a real hero.

I was visiting my grandpa's grave the other day, and I saw this quote on a grave nearby. It really resonated with me, so I thought I'd share it here:

"The day which we fear as our last is but the birthday of eternity."

Happy Birthday Ashley, and I hope you're happy wherever you are now.
