A memorial, and a request.

Over the past few days, I’ve gotten so many messages and well wishes from people that don’t know me. They don’t know the guild. They don’t know our members. Yet, these people take time out of their day - even just a few minutes - to do what they can to lift another up, even just a little bit. That amazes me. The community in this virtual world absolutely stuns me with its beauty. With the sheer amount of love that some of these people can show to complete strangers, people they’ll likely never meet.  Kelly - better known as Erialin - was a shining beacon in our community, someone who devoted herself to making everyone’s day better, even if it was only a little bit. Unlike many people, she didn’t want payment, she didn’t count on anyone doing something for her in return, she just fed off the joy that she brought to so many of our lives. Saving many of us from choices that she knew we would come to regret. Last night, @sorielblackfeather took time out of their day to bring people together for a memorial, one last ‘Hurrah’ in Erialin’s name. This showed me how many people Kelly had touched. How much light she brought to our lives. After observing that, I created a petition in order to show Blizzard just how many people she had helped, how much of a shining star she was for us. This was done in hope that they will create a memorial in game, in Eversong Woods, for Eri; so that the joy she brought us will never be forgotten. https://www.ipetitions.com/petition/a-memorial-for-erialin-runeara
