Married IRL

Yesterday, we lost a sister.

We lost a friend.

I’m still not sure what to say or think about it. She was so awesome in so many ways. We met her in WoW, a month or two after we started playing. We were fast friends. Both her and D. Back on Lothar, they were in a guild with some friends, but we did a lot of things together.

She was there for my first ding to 60. The Giddglet. Boomkin bookends.

She loved to dance. When we finally made the move from Lothar to Drenden, she and D and a few others came with us. We created a new Aetherial Circle, friends who played together, with lofty hopes of raiding together someday.

And raid we did…

First, gotta get your Kara key.

Then raid some Karazhan.

Lots of Karazhan.

Then some Gruul’s. What can we say? We’re a very druid friendly place <3

Which lead us to SSC pwnage. Mooo…

To now, when we’re chargin’ down Vashj’s door.

She’s gone now.  And it hurts.   In this day and age where friendships can be made across vast distances, some people may think that our sorrow isn’t as real as if we knew her in real life.  But that’s just it, we DID know her.  The game was just the bar, the club, the meeting place.  In the fall, we’re having a BBQ for AC, people are going to gather to meet in person and shoot the shit for a weekend.  She was looking forward to it, and excited to be there.

There’s gonna be an empty spot at the table now.

And it hurts.

We’re gonna miss you Tara.  So much…
