Perhaps the thrust of this message is weird, or maybe it's funny, heartwarming, or even mean, I don't know, it's a very mixed bag of emotion as I type this, but this is a time of parting, so I'll console myself with the fact that it's a time when kind words become sentimental and even harsh ones have their edge blunted.
But outside of the UH, outside of your time as FA Jarl, outside Minecraft or Tekkit or when you were Crown Prince or all of the times before 'Doc' was ever a part of Wintreath, the biggest part of your legacy to me is that you were my first friend on these forums, because it's you who got me to sign up here to sign up for your Pathfinder game 4 years ago. We've had our differences - quite a lot of them - but so what, who cares, I've had differences with everybody.
But now in a fit of cosmic irony, my actions with the Burners have led - inexorably, as you've always made clear, though I continue to hope otherwise - to your departure.
I guess it's poetic, in an objectionably shitty action-movie sort of way.
A shorter message for the road, wherever it may take you, though I hope it winds you back here eventually;
Partings are tragic,
But friendship bears no regrets.
I'll keep a spot warm.
