Guild Wars 2

Tonight my guild lead a march in honor and memory of our dearly departed Officer and friend Asterlyn. She passed away last week. This weekend her family was holding a Wake in Oregon, however none of us could attend.

We were very sad that we could not express our gratitude and love for all that she had done for us and this game. She constantly helped new members, ran events and was always willing to be there to support.

No task was to small, no person to new for her to give friendly input advice and help to. Sadly bright stars can go out suddenly and in an online community, a game community people often dissapear and you never know what happened. Or when you do find out, in our case you must face the grim reality that life is precious. It can suddenly be taken from you.

We didnt have many to come to our parade tonight at first but, I couldnt let it be that way so I called out in map chat to others asking them to join us and honor her and perhaps people they had lost.

Like a wave of love people across the map arrived and we celebrated her life and many others that had been lost in style.

I want to thank this community for coming to our aid and helping us honor Dear Asterlyn. I will always have this happy memory now when I think of her and I hope that others do to.

Happy Holidays

I am glad to see people get involved and support each other. Just because it is an online community, that doesn’t make it any less humane or personal, and this just shows it. I also feel this is part of why we need to be more aware of how we treat others, even in an online community, because it can have profound effects on them.

My condoleances.
