It is with a heavy heart that I post this:

The player of Gharrick and Marclah, a good friend of mine in and out of the realm, has passed away. Most of you probably did not know him, he kept to himself. But still, he was one of us, if even for a short while.

He was in the realms for about a month, first playing one of my alts, Marclah, to learn the game, and then creating his own character and account, creating Gharrick the thief.

I got the notice this morning. He was killed in Iraq a few days ago.

I don't know the details of his passing, nor when he will be coming home to us.

He doesn't have any immediate family that I know of, or that he ever spoke of, so I would assume he's to be buried at Arlington National Cemetary.

More details to follow, as I get them.


Rest well, CJ. Fare winds and following seas. You will be missed, old friend.

I didn't know either character, but my sympathies to you for the loss of your friend.

I'm very sorry to hear that, my condolences to you and his family.

Very sorry for your loss and for his Country's loss. My thoughts and prayers to all those whom hurt at another lost one of us.

Too young to die with so much future to look forward to. May he walk in peace with loved ones.

My heart is heavy at this news as well. I wish sympathy and respect for his friends and family. Michie
