Nameless No More

Some of you may know of a man named "Nanashi" or "Nash". In the language of Caer'alfar this simply means 'nameless'. Those of you who recognize the name may have heard of him from legends some what take as myths, but they were not. They were true. He was real and he was my friend.

He was not a good man. He was a beggar. A gardener. A liar. A killer. A guardian. And a penitent.

He spent hundreds of years trying to atone for a great atrocity that he was forced to commit by his king. The King of the Undying Empire. I will not speak on this crime for it is unthinkable. After he did it he told his king he would never draw the sword of caer'alfar again and he kept it peacebound for hundreds of years.

I found him on the road to Graypeak, where he was trying to protect orphans from a Herald of Pestilence. Gravely wounded. He died saving those children. He died with remorse still in his heart.

But no longer will he be nameless, for I name him:

Fuko.

For in this life he was my blessing.

Fuko, wherever your soul may go next, you are forgiven. Live your next life for yourself.

Lovely to know where his priorities were. Super. So happy for him.

Is it pronounced 'foo-koh'?
