Message: <blockquote data-quote="dpdx" data-source="post: 2181485" data-attributes="member: 188">Fendric looks thoughtfully at the present Oliver has given him. After a minute of quiet contemplation, Fendric carefully takes the flute from its wrapping, and holding it to his mouth, sounds the note. As the sound wafts through the gathering, a smile comes to his face.He takes it out of his mouth, and places it back in the wrapping. Carefully placing the wrapped flute in his pack, he turns to face Oliver, his face smiling and lowered as if to remember their reversal of roles so long ago."Oliver, I thank you for your steadfast companionship, and your thoughtfulness. The Feast of the Sun Thieves had slipped my mind, and I thank you again for your remembrance. We have had much else to think about since we last saw Hedrogura, May the Light Protect our fair city.But you do yourself injustice to call yourself an 'old thief,' and of anyone here, you must expect that I also remember a time from which I can dispute that appellation. So if you do not accept the forgiveness that is rightfully yours, on this day of all days, I will spend the rest of it recounting to others those memories I hold dear, in as excruciating detail, fondly begotten, as I am capable. You will have your due, old thief or no; that is what I remember of The Feast of the Sun Thieves, May His Holy Radiance Shine Brightly on our humble custom!"At this last statement, Fendric's smile can be noticed by all. Hiritus suppresses his own grin, and looking fondly at the old man with the small menagerie, he holds his closed fist over his heart in a silent salute to the once-formidable pit fighter.To the others assembled, Fendric also speaks."You who are not Hedroguran - you are not bound by this custom. Do not let us influence you not to eat, but as our wise old sage has correctly remembered, today, I shall go without."</blockquote>
