In Memoriam, Yasmay Laetshi

P

Polare

Count
To the citizens of the Crossroads and all Romani brothers and sisters;

Yasmay Laetshi has permanently died. Her body will be interred in a ceremony in September in the way of her people; until then, I will be at her side. If you wish to pay your respects, please contact myself or Papa Dayeva.

Yasmay was a beacon of light and hope in our community, and her passing is a grievous blow. Without her presence, the Crossroads will forever be a darker, sadder place.

I will be casting a Spirit Farewell when appropriate. Please contact me if you have such a scroll available.

I will also be along side with Polare. I will do as much as I can to help for I have lost my best friend.

I can assure you that he speaks the truth...
All that I have cared for is now gone.

I will keep the vows I made to her... perhaps this is what Sangua had planned all along.

I do not know what happened, but her blood is one with mine, and she shall be bound to mortal rememberance forever.

I thought I had nothing to lose, until you gave me back something broken...

Sleep well, my love, we'll not meet again.

It came true.

The kris in red is sated yet
before the darkness, overturned
His warm embrace makes her forget
most painful lessons ever learned

He cuts away the pain of hate
unburdened then, she sees his truth
to pierce the flesh and seal her fate
beneath unmaker's runed tooth

Her hesitation serves him well
and still she doubts his pure intent
yet deep within the lands of fell
she'll learn just where it was he went

This discontent will soon be healed
as trickster's flight is closed for all
in wrath he now must take the field
to prove he honors crimson's call

Such sacrifice is hers to make
yet she at first can't understand
the innocence to force his break
if she gives in to this demand

and not at all what he had planned
in coming to this foreign land

The ages pass and yet he knows
that soon she shall indeed be true
He bears to her the thornless rose
and with her help, his flesh renew

She knows not what is his design
but still she gladly takes the fall
and when the sacred wands align
to reign in peace above them all

A cross of change will bind their hearts
still seeking, both unwise and wild
but if each is well played in parts
she walks no longer as a child

Instructing her in ancient ways
she finds that she can grant her love
He drinks to dream of end of days
red shafts of sunlight shine above

Awakening within his soul
she finds she has the power still
to bend his mind and make him whole
or stand against his iron will

and dreaming, she shall take her fill
they share each portion of his kill

Once they reveal his darkest deeds
this trial for his blood anew
ye she seeks to fulfill his needs
Uncertain it was he that slew

Beside, he keeps her well secure
yet crimson churns with jealousy
To prove again their blood is pure
she battles her uncertainty

A choice is made of spirit pledge
Unsure if flesh or soul prevail
again she seeks to test his edge
but still to naught it shall avail

this emptiness, to her so fresh
and yet to he, so terribly old
with her embrace upon his flesh
his warmth has turned to bitter cold

A jagged slash across his throat
Finding spirit love betrayed
He settles deep within his rote
His fears now rest, all since allayed

Both their roles indeed, well played
but in young hands the ending laid
 
It is a sad day indeed. Any day when one of our freinds dies. Whether they hated us made or not. They fought alongside us and trusted us with there lives. I am honered to have known Yasmay. I know she will be missed by many.

I'll only ask this once, please do not cast a spirit farewell Polare. It's not your place to cast and there are plenty in her family that would like to wish her well in the end.

Trianna and Kerjal are still out of the area and I suspect that they deserve more than anyone to say good-bye to a sister.

~Balryn

 
No one vill be casting any spirit farewells until I am calling for her to come from the land of the dead. I escorted her there, and I have been granted that by the Lord of the dead himself.

I had thought to use it at the Kris vich vill be comink soon, but I am thinkink you are right, Balryn. Kerjal and Trianna do deserve to be seeink her.

Papa Dayeva
 
Balryn,

Rest assured that I will accede to Papa Dayeva's wishes on what the "appropriate timing" would be. I am sure that, with his wisdom, all those who deserve to be there for Yasmay will be. He is the one who has spoken to the Lord of the Dead on this issue.

You are ever so right my friend. Trust me, I would know. Being apart of a house where all we hear about is darkness, she lit up that house, and made it home. This world has lost one of it's bright and shining stars, and my heart has broken. But in this time of despair I offer some advice, She may be gone, but her loving memory will never die.
 
Words cannot convey my sadness.

I will never be happy again. Period.
 
......What?


No, that's not right. Can't be right.


....Really?

Damn.

Polare, Kauss, Johnathan, SOMEBODY who was there, please send me a missive to the Duchess's estates and tell me EXACTLY what happened.

....knew something like this would happen if I left.....
 
I'm sorry

I'm sorry.
For things left unsaid, and things left as said.
I'm sorry.
For failing to be there when you needed me, even if you didn't want me to be.
I'm sorry.
For letting others do you wrong, when I could have done more right.
I'm sorry.
For being less than I could be, more than I should be, and here when I should have been there.

If there is a realm for those that cease to wander this one, I hope yours is fair and fun, where the law of the land requires puddles to be leapt into, shoes are clearly an evil to be banned, and darken hordes are held back with a softly spoken word and well-baked cake.

If each of us is measured by a candle's flame, then yours has lit the flames of so many others. You have touched so many lives, that even in passing death, you will live on in the hearts, minds, and actions of others.

I believe that in your rest, you will find peace and joy. I weep not for what you have experienced, but for what I have lost. Not for what we have shared, but for what we can't share.

With deepest love and fondest memory,

Yasmay, you were good person. I never had problem with you, thought you were very nice and would protect you to the end of my life. I wish I was faster and I knew you three were missing sooner.
*faintly through the dreams, utmost silence* Polare, I so sorry I could not get people there faster. . . Syndel and I came as fast as we could track. . . I sorry. . . *Kitty's voice fades away*
 
*What seems to be the opening to a cold, dark cavern entrance appears and a cold and monotone voice echos out*......nobody NEEDS friends.....everyone needs family...when someone who was considered a friend, takes away family they become an enemy. When family kills family, they become an enemy. I know you would all like to think she was in good spirits before she passed, she wasn't. I was with her the night before with Aeris. Never in my time have I seen anyone so young, crumble so fast and so deep. Live with this pain Polare, live with it. You were one of the few people who had my respect, you lost it. I trust you to try and earn it back, others may not care for my respect but I know you are one who belives strongly in respect. lastly, to the family member who speaks in such a manner opposite in which they act, remember that some day you will join her just like all of us will. You just my not like the manner in which you meet her again. Don't sugar coat the truth, thats no way to honor someones memory. *the cavern entrance seems to fade back into shadow*
 
Funny, that

Do not begrudge them their grief... everyone has the right to be saddened by our loss.

Enemies or friends, family or stranger; those who were a part of her life are right to be saddened by her absence.

She is the only one who really knew how she felt about everyone. Just because you think she was upset at someone, doesn't mean she still didn't harbor love for those people.

Do not dishonor yourselves or her memory by refusing to let the past go.

Goodman Jarax,

With all due respects, why would you spit such venom at a time like this? You speak of nobody needs friends, but everyone needs family. And when family kills family, they become an enemy. Well, with reguards to it being family buisness it should stay within the family, and the last time I checked you weren't. If your wondering why I'm saying this and not heeding my own advice to avoid sounding like a hypocrite is because I concider them my family. I understand that this is a very uneasy time for us all, but let us not crumble what little stability we have with each other at the moment.

I bid you all a good evening,
D
*The music starts back up and the fire keeps roaring, but then fades away*

And so you feel her memory would be better served tearing up her friends and family and their dedication and love to her?
You truely have a twisted sense of Honor.
I wonder if you even understand the concept behind the word.
Since you seem to throw it around so admittly.

In all this loss and pain that these friends and family feel you seem to forget that to most of us, the word FAMILY goes beyond that which is blood related.

And as I look around when I happen to be around, I can't help but notice that you dont have anyone you call family around. Since to you it does stop at blood line. And to you friends mean nothing.
You must lead a life full of solitude. No wonder you touch the world with frost bitten hands and try to freeze thoes who express love.


And as far as threating that family memeber...I think it would be in your best interest to keep thoes thoughts too yourself, cause while you might put your threats up on a nice todo list somewhere and never fully execute them, not everyone is like that. And i'd hate to see someone who has so much to learn still, have an unfortunete accedient.

*Red liquid churns and rolls sadly at the edge of the light*
This is not a time for accusations and threats. It is a time for mourning and remembrence. Let us not sully Yasmay's death with the promise of more pain and suffering. Instead, let us dream of the love and light that she offered by living her life and setting the many examples that she did. Death should not be our focus. The joy that she brought should be our focus. Please, no more threats while Yasmay's passing is still fresh in your minds.
*The liquid calms and evaporates*

Lets get this out in the open then, I have made it perfectly clear to Polare that I have no intention of taking any action against him however, as for the family member. I'll go ahead and let it be known what I plan to do. Tristian, in my eyes gave up his right to call himself family when he slaughtered Aeris and Yasmay. I don't care what his reasons were, and if I had killed one of my own race or family I would expect Eli to remove my head clean from my body. He will meet a fate what I deem him to desrve. When I say I'm going to do something I do it, like when I watched the healers of this little group let Seth die, I set the trap that cause the entrance of the Earth guild to explode catching Shikar and Deira in the blast, now shikar was not meant to be there, an unfourtunate accident. Diera was my target. As for you D, you can consider her family but you are NOT of her blood or race. Nor am I, but the fact that the ties between her races people and mine are closely related I can say that. and as for you Taltos, would you like another mushroom?
