To the Dwarven brothers and sisters of the Hammer and the members of the Yliakum community.
It’s a sad day that I must stand here and tell you of a great loss to our guild. Brodr Grampus passed away last year. As a tribute to our honoured brodr, for us to remember and a chance to say goodbye to such a noble dwarf and friend there will be a ceremony on the 9th February at 18:00 GMT at the lrifion River at OJA Road2.
He will be missed by all of us, but will be in our hearts forever.
