My oldest brother lost his two year battle against cancer yesterday. I relayed his final goodbye to his guild, and I took the first screenshot before logging him out for the last time. I ask the community to remember the life of Edelweiss, the Paladin.

Words from a stranger on the internet is probably cold comfort, but I am reminded of this quote from the game we all love.

"Fear not, young one, for this crusader shall not taste death. In life, he was the bearer of great deeds. Now, in passing, he shall taste only paradise. The light does not abandon its champions."

May your brother's rest be peaceful, and may your own heart find peace in time.

"What do we do now?"

"We bring him home."

Lok’Tar Ogar, brave champion. I find some comfort in Alicia’s poem from a quest in the game.

“Do not stand at my grave and weep, I am not there, I do not sleep.

I am in a thousand winds that blow, across Northrend's bright and shining snow.

I am the gentle showers of rain, on Westfall's fields of golden grain.

I am in the morning hush, of Stranglethorn's jungle, green and lush.

I am in the drums loud and grand, the thunderous hooves across Nagrand.

I am the stars warmly gleaming, over Darnassus softly dreaming.

I am in the birds that sing, I am in each lovely thing.

Do not stand at my grave and cry, I am not there. I do not die.”
