Tribute to a Lost Friend

Post by valn99 »

JenWa and Gilim stood near Adalina's former home.
They had come to pay their respect and say good bye to their fallen friend.


JenWa: *rumages through pack*
Gilim Graybreaker: *pauses looking at altar*
JenWa: *sets a small statue of Tymora on the ground, before the altar*

Gilim Graybreaker: Wait Jen..
((Gilim walks off and comes back with very formal clothing))

Gilim Graybreaker: *brushes self off*
JenWa: *blinks* Oh!
Gilim Graybreaker: *nods solemnly*

Gilim Graybreaker: Now ye can
JenWa: *smiles, eyes moistening up*
Gilim Graybreaker: *folds hands behind back*

((Jen kneels before the altar and the little statue of Tymora))

JenWa: *sighs sadly* Dearest Adalina...
Gilim Graybreaker: *bows head*
JenWa: You were always a loyal friend.
JenWa: You... you were one of the first to greet me when I arrived in Shadowdale.
JenWa: So, so many years ago.
Gilim Graybreaker: *nods solemnly *

JenWa: Full of life... and... a-and all s-smile.
Gilim Graybreaker: *jaw tightens*
JenWa: *wipes her eyes* We shared adventures. W-we f-fought for the Dale. *sobs a moment*

Gilim Graybreaker: *moves laying hand on her shoulder*
JenWa: *sighs, voice breaking* You will b-be missed. B-but not... not forgotten.
Gilim Graybreaker: *nods lip trembling*
JenWa: *bows her head* *looks up to Gilim*

Gilim Graybreaker: *looks to her nodding then looks to ground and altar*

Gilim Graybreaker: [d] Fair ye well..born of earth
Gilim Graybreaker: [d] Fair ye well, blood of mine
JenWa: *wipes her eyes*

Gilim Graybreaker: [d] Made in blows or rock and sweat
Gilim Graybreaker: [d] Made in tears that stand in time
Gilim Graybreaker: *reaches into pocket*
Gilim Graybreaker: *takes out gem holding it for Jen to see*
Gilim Graybreaker: *turns to Altar*

JenWa: *eyes the gem through her tears*
Gilim Graybreaker: [d] Ye grew so much Adi...such a waif..wonderin yer place in these lands.
Gilim Graybreaker: *sniffs wiping at eyes*
Gilim Graybreaker: [d] Ye brought a joy to me heart and I will ever remember yer beauty on tha day ye wed.
Gilim Graybreaker: [d] Flowers in yer hair..
Gilim Graybreaker: [d] so happy

JenWa: *Smiles a bit, sobbing*
Gilim Graybreaker: [d] That is how I remember ye, little Daughter..
Gilim Graybreaker: [d] that is how I remember ye *bends pushing stone into ground*

Gilim Graybreaker: [d] Star of tha earth...guide er home
Gilim Graybreaker: *covers stone then stand wiping eyes*
JenWa: *nods to Gilim*
Gilim Graybreaker: *nods sighing*

JenWa: Faithful of Tymora, the Lady called you back to Her side.
Gilim Graybreaker: *bows head reverently*
JenWa: Your life will now undoubtedly be a happy one. *bows her head*

Gilim Graybreaker: *lays hand once more on her shoulder squeezing gently*
JenWa: *nods to Gilim*
Gilim Graybreaker: *nods offering her his hand*
JenWa: *sighs and stands up slowly* We have done this too many times... *picks up the staff*

Gilim Graybreaker: *chokes* ...aye..
Gilim Graybreaker: too many
JenWa: *gives the statue one last look, sighing heavily*
