Tales from the House of Elder now known as William the Bat
Below is an article on WHY we call the mansion Kelci Mansion. God rest her soul ... see you at the big tree of life in heaven girlie!
I am Nabata of the House of Elder, my patron is Balash.
This is a story about Kelci Gittamad. She was a beloved member whom we lost in RL [real life] to complications from cancer. In her honor, Elder renamed his Mansion, Kelci Mansion, for her. No mention of the House of Elder would be complete or accurate without mention of Kelci :)
As Nabata looked around, all she could see through tear-stained eyes, were other members of the House sobbing. There is no potion or spell to ease this pain, no sacrifice to make, no lifestone to look to find her. She is truly gone. Gone to an enemy we cannot fight. Gone to a foe we cannot band together to defeat. On Feb 20, House of Elder lost a dear friend. Kelci Gittamad left us for the last time. We know it was not her choice to go, and we know that beast called ARS will not return her. We weep for ourselves and for Ali Goboom and Rajput, her husband and son. Yet, our memories of Kelci are many and happy.
Nabata met Kelci Gittamad when they were young and shared a patron. There was an outing at the Lin Lugian Citadel. A few moments of hello and how are you, then into the fray. Kelci was fast with her crossbow and sword, Nabata tried to keep up. They would often speak long distance as they were doing various things.
There was the time Kelci killed her Alchemist, Madame Curie, the first time she made health potions. Nabata remembers loosing health from falling over and skinning her knee laughing so hard.
There was all the dull and boring moments hunting in the Fenmalain dungeon. Both warriors wanted GSA. That meant shards and shadow poop as Kelci liked to call it. Kelci waited to get hers, so Nabata could finish gathering her bits. They ran together to Al-Jalima to get their armour. William the Bat has a picture of the two of them in their new armour - Nerf Queens with Sticks!
Kelci was my sister in arms, I think of her everyday.
