Aw, Victor was phenomenal - and he had such a nice funeral, too. It was difficult finding a reliable replacement to carry on his job but Jorinth seems to be doing a good job now.

I'd forgotten about the part about a newspawn stealing his clothes, and all the hassle and wondering if everything was going to fail, but it turned out to be a very good funeral in the end. Even people who didn't know him were touched and spoke up. I flipped the log and removed unrelated events.

3015-0: You see Pyrphoros entering Klojt, coming from Klojt Jail.
3015-0: Pyrphoros says: "Hello. This ex-prisoner needs a job. Anything?"
3015-0: You say: "I was thinking you should bury Victor since you exposed his body, provided that you can do it in a respectful manner."
3015-2: Pyrphoros says to you: "Okay ma'm. Where should i bury him?"
3015-2: You say to Pyrphoros: "Out here. We might need some help in bringing him out, though."
3015-2: You say: "Hey Maho, since you happen to be awake, you can help us move Victor's body out for burial."
3015-2: You enter Hospital, where you see 0 people, leaving the central area of Klojt.
3015-2: You see Maho One entering Hospital, coming from the central area of Klojt.
3015-2: Maho One says: "shall we pull now?"
3015-2: Maho One says: "mmm, Coventina?"
3015-2: You say: "We need to make sure Pyrphoros takes part in it."
3015-2: You say: "He's better not have fallen asleep."
3015-2: Maho One says: "oh i see"
3015-2: Maho One says: "i think i better go outside and prepare the funeral..."
3015-2: You see Maho One leaving Hospital, entering Klojt.
3015-2: You enter Klojt, where you see 45 people, leaving Hospital.
3015-2: You say: "This is not going to work out if somebody is only awake for a minute at time."
3015-2: You see Pyrphoros leaving the central area of Klojt, entering Hospital.
3015-2: Venustas says: "What isn't?"
3015-2: You say: "The dragging. I waited there for minutes."
3015-2: Venustas says: "He's playing with you. *shakes her head*"
3015-2: You say: "...Or just slow."
3015-2: You enter Hospital, where you see 1 people, leaving the central area of Klojt.
3015-2: You see Venustas entering Hospital, coming from the central area of Klojt.
3015-2: Venustas says: "Need help?"
3015-2: You say: "Yes."
3015-2: You see the dead body of Victor Bix being pulled from Hospital to Klojt. (Pyrphoros, Coventina, Venustas)
3015-2: You see Venustas leaving Hospital, entering Klojt.
3015-2: You enter Klojt, where you see 44 people, leaving Hospital.
3015-2: You see Pyrphoros entering Klojt, coming from Hospital.
3015-2: You say: "Would someone like to say a few words?"
3015-2: Pyrphoros says: "Thanx for the help. Okay. Should i bury him now?"
3015-2: Maho One says: "Hei... He's awake!"
3015-2: Venustas says: "Victor was kind and gentle to me. His idea for the trading system is fantastic and he left a real contribution to this town."
3015-2: You say: "*She heaves a bit of a sigh.* Thank you, Venustas."
3015-2: Venustas says: "Oh, I haven't finished."
3015-2: You say: "Go on."
3015-2: Venustas says: "Victor worked hard and gave much of himself to others. He was highly reguarded by all. I never heard one complaint about him. He is sorely missed."
3015-2: Venustas says: "*bows her head* "
3015-2: Maho One says: "Well, I haven't know Victor yet actually... But I believe he's a good... no great... man... Goodbye Victor, your name will live forever in this town... *salute*"
3015-2: Elion says: "*slowley walks over to Venustas and bows her head, tears glisening in her eyes* "
3015-2: Maho One says: "And may you rest in peace..."
3015-2: Pyrphoros says: "I would say a few words. I commited crime against this town's law by stripped him down. Though i still don't agree with the specific law, my respect to coventina was that changed my mind, to follow this town's law. Today i will bury him with my own hand. Sorry man. Your boots was so teasing. Goodbye. And i am sorry to and thank you all, the citizens of klojt."
3015-2: You say: "Hey, Victor. *She looks down at the body with a bit of a sad smile.* You weren't sure if you'd be up for the job, but you gave it a go anyway. And you did a great job. You knew how to balance work and leisure, and you weren't afraid to say when you needed a break. I don't know if you knew this last one... was going to last forever *by that point tears are welling up in her eyes and one rolls down her cheek* but you did fine all the way to the end, and didn't go to rest until you knew there was someone to continue your work. Thank you."
3015-2: You say to Pyrphoros: "You may begin now."
3015-2: Venustas says: "*discretely wipes her eyes*"
3015-2: Maho One says to you: "do I need to help?"
3015-3: Snick says: "*she looks down at the body* Uh... Victor. We will all miss you, even those of us who never knew you. Apparently you were the man who set up the trade system here at... *she pauses for a second, appearing to mouth the word "Klojt" over and over, as if trying to figure out how to pronounce it* Klojt, as well as a lot of other great things too. So rest in peace. *she steps away and returns to repairing the pincers*"
3015-3: You say to Maho One: "It's probably going to take him three hours alone. You may assist if you'd like but I won't blame you if you don't."
3015-3: You say: "...I just remembered how when Victor was a newspawn, he was going to help us move dead people out of the hospital, but he was so sensitive that he almost fainted when he saw them, and other people had to handle it. But I told him "You don't have to make yourself grow insensitive on purpose. Eventually life is likely to harden you if you live long enough, but there's no need to speed it up"."
3015-3: You say: "We see death here many times a year, maybe just as much as we see new spawnings, and we shrug it off as something natural, something unavoidable that just happens. The only way to make us pause, and maybe think for a while, is when the world takes away someone important and dear to us."
3015-3: Winry says: "I don't know Victor, but from what all of you have said, it seems like he was a noble and loving man and that Klojt has lost alot even though he was only 1 person. But anyway, I hope you rest in peace Victor. You had obviously made this town a happier place."
3015-3: Maho One says to you: "I think I better respect Pyrphoros by let him done it alone..."
3015-3: You say to Winry: "Thank you for speaking up. I'm afraid I haven't heard your name yet."
3015-3: Winry says: "It's Winry. I find this day very sad, even though I never knew who Victor was, but it doesn't matter. "
3015-3: Winry says: "I'm still sad and perhaps sad for a while."
3015-3: Winry says: "*She looked down at her feet and a tear rolled down her cheek and landed on the ground in front of her*"
3015-3: Tabford says: "*sighs* Sleep, friend. You've more than earned your rest. I'll be sure and smack Alex for you. You and I, we didn't see each other much, with me staying outside, while you kept in. But, you were a hell of a guy."


I think Klojt has lost half its population since those days and is down to #3 in English spawns but according to statistics from the last 30 days, there still seems to be a 3.5 % chance of spawning there.

Oh Wow. :cry: Thank you Seko! That's awsome *Hugs Seko* I missed you! You're so great! I miss Coventina too. It really was a touching ceremony.

Edited: I'm also surprised that so many people knew Sticks. Considering that forest didn't have a lot of people in it. :D

Eva :( What happened to her? Jayne waited for...a long time (can't remember) And eventually moved on. Sad to hear she's gone, I liked her.
Robert too, did he die in the massacre or was it later? I lost Alice in that mess :(
And all that is now
And all that is gone
And all that's to come
And everything under the sun is in tune
But the sun is eclipsed by the moon.

:cry:

My char is still having issues with the fact that the two loves of her life are gone. She has turned a little... wicked.. of course it could be bitter but wicked sounds so much better.

And I believe that Jenna died before Cheif did, but I don't think it was that far apart.

Eva & Cheif both died when I took 6 months out in the aftermath of the massively CRB-ridden, game-exploiting massacre of New Xanth. I regret losing both of them, but I had no interest in Cantr during that period. Only one of my chars managed to survive that period.

And Mikki, don't you alter the name of my characters when you quote me. It was Cheif, not Chief! :roll:
