Story of our fallen brother
Daniel/Touya had been in the hospital after stopping a young lady from being attacked. He ended up getting horribley hurt in the process landing him in critical condition. He was pulling through making great time recovering but he was nonresponsive to the physical world. The family decided to let him go. Daniel has passed on to be with his wife and daughters. Im getting things back together enough to get on here again. Im going to start taking over his characters fairly soon from my avi. Im not quite ready to fully take on all of his people from his avitar. I thought that you should know about what has happened to him. He was very frond of you all.
shared by his cousin, Holly Nylos
 If a kiss was a raindrop
I'd send you showers,
If a hug was a second
I'd send you hours
If smiles were water
I'd send you the sea
If friendship was a person
I'd send you me.
Never be afraid to say you care,
they may disappear before you can.(His Signature & Friend of Great Words!) *Beloved Cousin, Friend, Packmate/Rper*Loving Cousin- Holly Nylos Coolest Siblings- PrincessLunaBlueWolf and TeenTitans4Ever Kameko and Axzulia Canadian Cutie- Lady Conspiracy Literary Genius- Tamaki-Sempai

Lunarians, Friends, & Packmates,
On behalf of myself & the entire crew. As the guild's captain I stand before you to open this announcement topic in remembrance of Touya-Ten Night who's real name was Daniel.
Many of you may or may not have had the oppurtunity to rp or become Touya's friend. Only once before have I wrote a speech about a loved one who's passed. This is my second experience and just as difficult as the first because Touya became one of my best friends here on gaia.
In the webster dictionary I looked up the definitions for the words friend and friendship. The word friend defines: a person whom knows well and is fond of. 2, an ally, supporter, or sympathizer. And friendship defined: the state of being friends. Our dear Touya was what the dictionary defined as a true friend and including his friendship with everyone who had the oppurtunity to know him. I personally had the privledge and oppurtunity to rp and become very good friends with Touya. My friendship with Touya is different like all the relationship's I have with all my friends both in real life and on gaia. Which makes every friendship with every individual special because each of you are special like Touya. Unfortunately I wasn't lucky enough to meet him in real life.There was a previous talk of meeting and getting together because Touya and his cousin, my sister and I all live in california. The idea wasn't far from my mind and I still plan to keep my word when things get better and visit with his cousin Holly. Unfortunately, I don't remember the details of when and how I met Touya and his cousin Holly. Touya and Holly were an amazing rping duo and both showed great devotion and loyalty to my guilds. The three of us might have participated in the same guild or during one of my guilds many life spans. LOL. I honestly feel bad for not remembering those details. Forgive me.
My personal friendship with Daniel literally blossomed over night. Those of you who know me best know I am a night owl. My creativity is at it's best at night. My mind thunders with creativity thinking of better ways to improve the guild, better storylines, newer plots, and other ideas of how to attract new members to join my guilds. I give Daniel the credit for encouraging me to revive Lunar. His encouragement took place one night when I was confiding in Daniel about one of my guild's and it not doing so well as hoped. People were inactive and begininning to disappearing which made me sad. That was a breaking point in my guild captain career where I told him I wanted to throw in the towel and quit as guild captain. That didn't mean I was going to quit gaia or not participate in other guilds but that I was done being captain. Being guild captain has it's lows and highs like everything in life.
Daniel immediately told me "no, you can't!" "It's not you, it's not your storyline, your guilds are great! Don't give up yet!" Daniel continued to push the idea of me remaining as a guild captain and telling me to reviving "Lunar". One his most favorite guild he had ever participated in that belonged to me. Daniel knew what Lunar meant to me and saw the passion in the storyline. So yes, eventualy gave in to his plea and together we began brainstorming "Lunar". We practically pulled an all nighter brainstorming a great storyline and plot. The brainstorming part of the guild that night came easy to us both which allowed us to bond and talk of life too. The day after our all nighter we slowly went to work on the guild and in due time knew it would be finished.
Unfortunately after working so hard in planning the guild everything came to a sudden hault. There was a moment I had stopped receiving messages from Touya and naturally I grew worried with concern. The guild didn't open as planned, little things needed to be done, and I couldn't open the guild without him. I just couldn't bring myself to do it. Eventually,Wolf Moon fell apart due to inactivity. As I was struggling whether or not I should close Wolf Moon I receive a message from his cousin Holly about his terrible situation and him being in a coma. That's when I decided to close Wolf Moon and I decided I just couldn't open Lunar anymore. I continued to participate in the guild I still had. Every night I prayed for our dear guild brother Touya to return to us. I knew God was taking care of him. . . .
One night I had a dream, A dream I find and believe to be very meaningful about the events in my life probably about to take place. My dream was based on my relationship with both my guilds and those I met in my guilds. In the dream I dreampt I was a wolf leading a pack. . .just how I lead my guild as captain. In the dream I lead everyone in a run. . .and I continue thinking of the friends I've made throughout the years because of my guilds. As I am leading everyone in a run in the distance a lone wolf calls out to us all. The wolf was dancing and twirling beneath the moonlight causing us all to hault than look toward the lone wolf's way. As the lone wolf grabs our attention especially mine he sings a song over to us. I am excited by this lone wolf's song and I decide to share a song back. As I share a song back I look to everyone to sing back too. Everyone follows. As everyone was singing I had a sudden feeling as though I knew this wolf. So, in excitement I lead everyone to meet and possibly reunite with this wolf and again everyone followed. Although as I ran closer to this lone wolf, the lone wolf got further and further away from us. When I woke up the next morning, I quickly wrote the dream down, and
tried to figure out what it might possibly mean. A couple days after having this dream was when Holly informed me about Touya passing away. At that very moment I remembered the dream and began digging for my notes about the wolf dream that I had prior to her bad news. As I was reading the notes I began crying and thought to myself. "I believe that was Touya in the distance saying Goodbye." Not just to me but to us all.
I personally dedicate this "Lunar" to my dear friend Touya/Daniel. I personally wish to thank my entire guild crew for there assistance in helping get this guild started. I am always grateful! I would also like to thank those of you who have joined this guild and allowing me to get to know you individually as we rp together. I am so honored to have you all become a part of this growing rp family.
I love you all! Especially my beloved crew! XOXO's to all!
~Love Your Friend & Captain,
Luna

Dedications to Touya/Daniel Farewell My Friend
It was beautiful as long as it lasted
The journey of my life.
I have no regrets whatsoever
save the pain I’ll leave behind.
Those dear hearts who love and care…
And the strings pulling at the heart and soul…
The strong arms that held me up
When my own strength let me down.
At every turning of my life I came across good friends,
Friends who stood by me,
Even when the time raced me by.
Farewell, farewell my friends
I smile and bid you goodbye.
No, shed no tears for I need them not
All I need is your smile.
If you feel sad do think of me
for that’s what I’ll like when you live in the hearts
of those you love, remember then
you never die.
~by Rabindranath Tagore Old Irish Blessing
~May the road rise up to meet you
~May the wind always be at your back
~May the sun shine warm upon your face
~And rains fall soft upon your fields
~And until we meet again
~May God hold you in the palm of his hands*Dedicates the song Scientist by ColdPlay*

Heaven
"You entered the holy gates of our king.
I sit upon his holy seats below.
They belong to the white castle.
Where his disciples live.
That is where I am.
While you belong to the golden kingdom above."
This is a poem that I wrote. It was wrote in class. Based off where you think you'll go. My classmates have enjoyed the poems I wrote and found this one beautiful.
I dedicate this poem to our dear friend, Touya. I shall miss him so. He was a good roleplayer. He was sweet and kind. He shall be miss by those who loved him.
I met Touya through my sister's guilds. The two of us became friends as we roleplay with each other. It is too bad that I'll never meet him in person. But I am that I did get to meet him on gaia.

Daniels Life
Daniel was one of my very best friends. What very few here know is that we are not actually blood related. Or rather, were. I met him when i was 4 years old shortly after my grandfathers passing. He saw me by myself at the playground that he took his little sister to. I wouldnt play with any of the other kids cause i was too sad about losing my grandfather. He was the one that got me to smile again and see that he had not left me. My grandfather was still there with me in spirit. From then on he was my hero, the one i looked up to, confided in, my closest friend.
He had a heart of gold. Daniel couldnt pass anyone by without making them smile first. When entered high school was when he lost his little sister to lukemia. Everyone was devestated and i know he took it the hardest. But he always put a smile on and tried his very best to cheer his family and friends up. He confided in me more than once how much his heart ached passing by his sisters room knowing she was not there. His sister, Lily, was the sweetest girl in the world and had her big brother wrapped around her little finger. He lived for her to make her happy. At school he could act as if everything was alright. At home he did very much the same. I knew better. I knew the pain he was in as he had pulled me from that same depression when i was a little girl. By this time i was considered family to him so it wasnt uncommon for us to be around each other a lot.
Despite our age difference there was never a problem for us to talk to one another. He met his wife in high school when he was looked at as a total nerd. She was popular and glamorous so you can imagine how well that worked out at first. English was his strongest subject. His mind was the most creative i have ever seen. He had written several short stories for Lily and i that he thought were no good. But they are my very favorite ones. And with such an adept skill at writting he caught the attention of that very special girl. She loved to read and write but was not confidant in her writtings. Together as their friendship formed they wrote stories together. I believe it was their Junior year was when they finally started dating after an embarassing tell all of his feelings.
Even though everything seemed perfect they had their problems as every couple does. Yet it didnt seem to matter to them. In college they got married their first semester. Or shortly before the semester started. I dont remember exactly when it was. Daniel was a literary major following his passion for writting always encouraging a good idea to become great. Whether it was his own or not. Unfortunately for my dear cousin tragedy followed him everywhere. He and his beloved wife got into a terrible argument one evening and she went to take a walk to blow off some steam. He went and worked out in the garage waiting for her to come home so he could apologize. After a couple hours he knew there was something wrong. As he was approaching the accident he got a call from the officer on site if he knew where his wife was. After that he ran the last bit yelling out her name in vain. A drunk driver had hit her and she was killed instantly. Or so says the officer. What he didnt find out till later was that she had been carrying twin girls. The fight they had gotten into was triggered by the fact that he was late on the night she was going to tell him only to lose each other.
This started a dark chapter for Daniel. Unable to take the pain of losing the love of his life and two unborn daughters he turned to alcohol. Most of us dont bring this up as it is his darkest time. Regardless it is a part of him. He had entered into the depths of despare that very few emerge from. He gave his whole heart to his wife and was lost without her. After about a year and nearly losing everything he was finally able to move along in life. At least enough to get things together. Being with her again and finally seeing his two little girls Im sure is what kept him tied to the other world. He was with his family again.
As much as i miss Danny i cannot forget that i will see him and everyone else again. As we all will. I know how much he cared for you all. Even those he did not know very well he held great respect for since you are pursuing his love of literature and creativity. Always keep it fed, dont ever let you imaginations be limited. Do the impossible. Youre the only one who can.
If you want to hear any stories about him, or are curious about anything, do not hesitate to ask. I cant garuntee i will reply right away, but i will do my best.
I thank all of you for your friendship and kindness over these past years and in sight of recent hardships. Thank you.
~Holly

Always you will be part of me
And I will forever feel your strength
When I need it most
You're gone now, gone but not forgotten
I can't say this to your face
But I know you hear
I'll see you again
You never really left
I feel you walk beside me
I know I'll see you again
When I'm lost, when I'm missing you like crazy
I tell myself I'm so blessed
To have had you in my life, my life
When I had the time to tell you
Never thought I'd live to see the day
When the words I should have said
Would come to haunt me
In my darkest hour I tell myself
I'll see you again
I will see you again
I'll see you again
I miss you like crazy
You're gone but not forgotten
I'll never forget you
Someday I'll see you again
I feel you walk beside me
Never leave you, yeah
Gone but not forgotten
I feel you by my side
No this is not goodbye

O.o I remember him. used to Rp with him in a couple of places. I can't believe the things I miss. . when I too face the doors/gates of someplace.
This may sound wrong, or inappropriate, etc. I em sad he is gone. I really em. But I am proud of him. he had enough heart to help another in dire need and worried about the rest later. that is a rare thing. not a lot would do that nowa days. :/. he was loved. no. he is loved. he maybe dead physically but not from our memories and time spent together.( regardless of physical or cyber plains).
If I was in his shoes, I would have done the same. I would have saved that women too. regardless of the risks involved. I proud to have known him for however brief it maybe and I am sure his family does too.
poem
He's spirit was rare,bold and brave
for only a few minutes it may have took.
The rain's now fall upon the land, the birds no longer chirp.
They remain silent, honoring this departed soul. The heart may feel empty the eyes heavy with tears. but I em proud to call him a acquaintance, a friend or to have known. even though I am not one for religion and such. I like to think there is a star out there twinkling with his name on it ^_^

Although I've been role-playing with Daniel for a long time, I never really took the time to get to know him more. In a way, I took for granted the time we had, but the time I did spend talking to him, he was an amazing man. He will live forever with our memories and hearts, within the guild, his creativity and imagination will continue. For Daniel was an avid writer, and a talented one at that. I respected him greatly for the way he was able to spin a plot and delve into his characters. I'm so glad I was able to learn more about him from Holly's post. With all our love, he will be greatly missed.
When reading of Luna's dream, I really wanted to incorporate it into my goodbye. For he isn't truly gone from us, but will run and write alongside us. O’er the night, the wolves they run
Chasing after a dream undone
But weary wolf please rest your head
No need to chase the dreams you’ve lead
O’er the mountains, and the plains
Running with no constrains
Weary wolf please sing your songs
For you have the whole world to belong
O’er the moon, the wolves they dance
Life is one long romance
But weary wolf please rest your paws
Its time to listen to your life’s applause
One brave wolf forever runs
To him we sing for all he’s done

Our fallen Packmate
~What moves through us is a silence, a quiet sadness, a longing for one more day, one more word, one more touch, we may not understand why you left this earth so soon, or why you left before we were ready to say good-bye, but little by little, we begin to remember not just that you died, but that you lived. And that your life gave us memories too beautiful to forget~((Your rping shall be greatly missed))

My sister and I took time to write you a letter. A letter written individually from our hearts. Neither of us had the honor to meet you. Tonight beneath the full moon we shall burn our letter's. As the fire burns our letter's and the cool summer breeze carries the smoke to you in the heavens. Although I know your watching and through those closest around me. I know you have heard my prayers and continue to listen. Tonight this alphess leads this pack to howl. I have been waiting for a full moon to lead a howl of sorrow and missing of you. Until we meet my friend. Until than I continue to lead this pack in your honor. This weekend I wish to nicely ask everyone to not post this weekend beginning Friday in Daniel/Touya's honor. Please, also take this time to enjoy your weekend and find some time for you. I am going to use this time for myself to pray and reflect on my life. Please know my friends & packmates that I love and care for you all. Know that I am always here for you all. Rping resumes midnight Sun/Mon.
~Love Always,
Luna
