[QUOTE="Bandeeto, post: 87576, member: 2819"] Arcade’s Journal – Return to Rampart, Demon Bunnies ...awoke upon a bier, surrounded by my friends, in the temple of Eris. My grandfather Ortigal was there, weeping at the bedside. I found out later, from Nolin, that Ortigal was tremendously upset when the Defenders brought my body back to him, even shouting at my dead corpse. Ortigal paid the majority of the resurrection fees, and I have resolved to tithe him from my treasure until my debt is repaid. It is very good to be back amongst the living.... ...I will need to have a long chat with my staff, the so called Master of Space and Time.

I have borrowed some money from Nolin for a donation to Eris.... ...Alix will hopefully be joining us soon. He was returned to Lord Tarim-Loial in Kindric, and we have received word that he was resurrected and suffered dearly at the hands of his brothers.
