Harm, you have done more for me as a bard than I can ever repay.
Encouragement, advice, and loot to make the challenging path of the minstrel
a bit easier to tread. I hope to see you in-game again. But if not, know
that you are well respected on Innoruuk as well as this list, and you will
be missed.
