Farewell Frank
I wanted to tell you a little bit about Frank. Frank was an incredible companion, and we have had many an adventure together in UO. He accompanied me on all of my treasure hunting missions, netting ourselves countless scrolls and treasures which we could turn around and sell, all to better our lives together. It was a happy and blissful three years we spent raiding treasure chests together. But sadly… Our time has now come to an end. Frank was my giant beetle. He and I shared a bond early on, and we continued to adventure until our time came to an end. Unfortunately, his demise was a bit unexpected. He had been slain numerous times before, dragons, spiders, obnoxiously strong and persistent pirates somewhat recently. Always to turn into a ghost, and blindly stumble along slowly behind me until some kind soul was able to make him whole again. But this time was different. This time… I had left him in my house in a hurry, as I had duties elsewhere that required immediate attention. When I returned a few days later… That was it. He suddenly had vanished from existence. No ghost. No stumbling. Just gone.
Through no fault of his own, he just ceased to exist, regardless of our bond together. He took all the stuff he was holding from our latest adventure. I guess after all these years, I would always get on him before heading off, or be on him while I slept at night. Always on him.
But this time, I did not get on.
Goodbye Frank.
