Adventurer Alan Valentyne Osric (a.k.a. Dr. Osric)

"He brought us life out of our darkened place of death. He brought us skills that saved our lives. Medicine that cured our people. In trade we gave him directions to the Forbidden Isle. He returned with riches that even further helped our people. Yet he returned as well a different man. Sick to the bone. He died a great hero to all. Life always ends eventually. While his life may be gone, his actions live on."
-Simon Kaldon, Lord of the 8th Land.

"Death be to those of Reapers-Guild. All others must live and be well. Save those who can not save them selves. Tend to the wounded and heal those who are sick. The lost and the Stolen are gone at this time. The Reapers-Guild will not take anymore than today. No more shall lose their souls to the horrid killers. Today, I say that we must end their deathly cult. We will end their religion of destruction. They take life! We will give it!"
