Eulogy For Ricardo
From Atlantic Roleplay Wiki
Title: Eulagy for Ricardo
Author: GreyPawn's Lore
What can I tell thee of the great Sir Ricardo? He was friend, not one whom I spent a great deal of time with, yet one that I admired more than most. His recent death has touched me in ways I have not expected. I am sure that part of the reason, is that he is the first friend of my own generation to have died, and thus reminds me of my own mortality. But I know that it is more than that. Mostly I think that it has to do with how much I and all his friends and loved ones will miss him. It was always a joy to be with this bright, and cheerful soul. My fondest early memories of Ricardo were on the fields of tournaments and battles. Sir Ricardo was an awesome force.
I have seen him sweep grown men off their feet with a single powerful blow, sending them crashing bewildered to the ground. I have stood by his side as he led our squad crashing through a well entrenched enemy line knocking people aside as if they wee matchsticks.
In later years, I grew to cherish his wit and wisdom. In fact a more gallant, honorable man would be hard to find. He was a man of great integrity.
Whenever he was a companion to any adventure or outing, you always knew that the events would be greatly enriched due to his participation.
I will miss Sir Ricardo
