All,
Yes there are more, Owen – Al-Macsar Court – High Archer Owen a humble and noble man, who willingly came into danger with us, the first to give up his life for another without thought for himself, like a steady rock I found his perspective on everything both interesting and helpful. A master of the bow and crossbow, even when he was shooting into combat you were confident he would hit the mark and not his allies. In times where I lay upon the floor in total grief, he would approach and offer words of support and kindness, ignoring that he might get the stubborn, angry response from me, he never wavered. His most noble act to take the place of a flayed man whilst in Lamentation on the River Styx. He did this freely and with no thought for himself. If only more were like this man and able to give so much for others. I hope with all my heart that Owen returns to us and he can prove to me that these sacrifices made by so many were worth the effort and I did not simply take such noble and honourable members of the court and others simply to their ends. I ask myself now in my great throne room, were they? In Mourning Gerehax -------------------- Sarah Williams

I don't know where to start.
I've spent more time with Owen than any other of my friends while out being a mercenary and doin good. Sometimes, even no good. You know what, I've had run ins with pretty much all of my friends at some point. Except him. We never once disagreed on anything. Well, maybe he did but he never told me and always supported me and was on my side. Whether I was off smiting the unsmitable evil, or just trying to do good in the most stupid way possible. He was one of the Prophets of Danger. We spent one summer singing, and playing and smiting zombies. He was one of the most devoted men I know, and always thought of himself before others. I honestly lost count of the amount of times he would put himself before others. I don't have the words. I just don't, but I have songs. A Mercenary Group we are here for the day They have asked us to leave but we won't go away! We are here for a drink and to sing us some songs No zombies to fight and no rights to set wrong! The problem of course is wherever we stay, it turns out we turn up on just the right day for a zombie attack or the Spiter's great hordes Some light entertainment so we don't get bored The Prophets of Danger yes that's what we're called We talk loads of rubbish and our jokes don't get old, We love, and we laugh and we fight and we flail, Now settle you down while we sing you our tale There's Owen Bridgewater none better than he, Shooting down sinners with that look of glee And he follows it up, with his special long shot I'm glad he's my friend, can't imagine him not I'll miss you Owen. May the Lady of the Stars and Skies look after you for a bit. Rest well. Watch out for bumgoblins. You will never walk, alone my friend. Memories, never die In our hearts, you'll always be As to Heaven you will fly. Bradley Baker Champion of the Stars Prophet of Danger |

I don't know we're to start for this fine man. Always cheerful in his approach to all things. His faith in his Lady strong and unyielding.
Thank you for teaching me about humour, my only sorrow is this isn't one of your jokes. Until we meet again Castiel |

I shall miss him, he saved my life more than a few times, and as my ma says, probably more than I deserved. He was a true friend, shot and the man to go to if you fancied a nice piece of cheese. We managed to find a barrel or two (sorry sir) of something half decent and its the sad duty of the (mostly) good people of Versy to remove our knitted caps (thanks) and drink to his health until there's none left and the stars are out.

Sad news indeed, Owen was as selfless as a man could be - if you were ever unsure of the right thing to do you could easily assume copying Owen wouldn't lead you far wrong. To the times you saved my life or the life of another without hesitation, the seemingly endless puns and those little chats that just happened when we'd stroll around the undergrowth recovering a few arrows.
Rest well my friend David Stone |

One of the truest, best people the world has seen. A genuine light in the darkness. From the Prophets of Danger to matters of faith to more and varied travels he's always been there for those around him, always willing to sacrifice himself to save others, to do what was right, without question or pause.
May the lady of sacrifice shelter you in her final embrace. Aurora |

I am sorry to hear of his passing.
He was a fine fellow and a smashing archer. I often remember the day he saved our entire mercenary band after slaying a demon lord with a single arrow of wraithwood. Earl Jack Flashblade |
