Subject :/) A Contributor of Joy, HimaVat!
Date :10/9



 A Barbarian, of a family who protects one another, who
 have each other's backs. A community, with so few of
  us these days, we are also a family, and should protect
  each other, and have each other's backs.

 There are few that I know who exemplify a sense of
  community, who stand amidst the darkness as a beacon
 of hope and light, providing joy and amusement to
  the few of us who linger.

 It is not an easy job.
 To maintain hope where it so easily extinguishes.
 To entertain when all color seems to drain from the
            world around us.

 To each flame that burns hard against the enveloping
  darkness, I bid you love. I bid you strength.
                                        I bid you thanks.

 In what few ways I can, I would honor these souls;
 what seems a thankless job at times, please know that
 you are seen, that you are supported, and that you are
 appreciated.

 Tonight I see fit to honor the Barbarian HimaVat,
 who exemplifies the bravery and the persistence of spirit
 that "keeps the fires burning" in these kingdoms.

 May the kingdoms know of your deeds, your commitment,
 and your contributions to lasting joy and light.
 Shine bright, our newest Contributor of Joy!
