Never forgotten

One year ago a sacrifice made
Never will your memories fade

I sing quietly with every tear
I sing because I know you hear

Your loss we suffer greatly
Your absence we feel dearly

My heart is so heavy it bleeds
You were the leader Travance needs

Protected us under your wing like a dove
Endless for you is my feeling of love

~ Angeliana

This is a very good poem and it conveys probably the feelings of many Travancians.

However, unless I am mistaken, Mixolydia didn't sacrifice herself. She essentially ascended to be one of the Lorestri. A very high honor for any Bard. It was told to her a long time ago before she left us that this would happen and she would know when. It just so happened to be that time last year.

I am not saying this to belittle the words here. I am saying it so that the people who came over the past year don't think that the last Baroness became a sacrifice for some reason, but realize that she was honored in a way most Bards want to be. To sing their songs forever.

Remember, she said it's not where she would see us again. But when she will see us again. She'll be back and we'll welcome her back with open arms.

Her Excellency offered me food and shelter when I had nothing but the clothes on my back. She saw a potential inside of me that no one else could. It was something I refused to see in myself. But still, she helped me, a simple street kid who could heal just cuts and bruises at the time. A person who was ignored and forgotten by the masses.I miss her every day, and I regret every chance I did not take to spend time with her.

I wish I could have met her. From what I have heard she was a wondrous individual.

Anxi.

Ser Renaith,
It is sad many don't know the sacrifice she made for us all. The scroll that she is protecting and running through time with; in the hands of the Anathema could destroy all memory and all song. She won't allow it. Only a Lorestri could successfully abscond with the scroll. And as such she ascended, and as such she runs, through time she runs alone, for us all...

Such a pity to lose such an inspirational, selfless soul to such a relentless malevolence. She is dearly missed.
