If this is true (I know, I know, it must be and I should accept it), it's too heartbreaking to even think about. I'm sorry to not throw in the towel yet, it's just that it's so hard to accept and I have not found a notice of this in her local papers, so, you know, haven't seen the "truth" for myself.
Durc/Pug had such respect for everyone. I remember how excited I was when she started an alliance and allowed me to be the first one to join. My little girl plays Illy, too, and wanted to be in Durc's Cave, and was welcome with open arms, and treated with respect and dignity. She loved my daughter. I know that's crazy for an online relationship, but it's true. I could hear it in her voice when she spoke to us on Skype. I'll never forget that clear pretty voice of hers, and how she laughed with me and my daughter, and, oh God, I remember one of the last things she said was "it is what it is." I guess I'll just have to let that be her message. She was the most entertaining player in Illy, with her wonderful orc talk, and "okees", and "peeks out of cave". Her talent in becoming her character was outstanding. She was an artist, as well, and a writer, and had such an interesting life. This is not fair. Things were about to turn around for "Durc" in RL. How the hell can she be gone? I'm sorry, but to preserve my own sanity, I must wait until I've seen the news with my own eyes before accepting it. That doesn't stop me from crying, though, and my daughter is a mess, too.
Heartbroken child sends hug to her beloved Durc Orc. We both send pleas to come back and not be gone.
We love you, Durc.
