[OOC: Continued from Deposit.] *Young Grimwold is in the back room of the Crazed Heifer. He was asked about his absence - but with only vague memories of the floating brick and no recollection at all of the Light Void, there was little to be discussed, especially with more recent happenings taking precedence. When he returned to the tavern, an alternative memorial service for the casualties of the fire was in full flow, with a renowned tavern monk leading a celebration of their lives. YG lingered for a while, listening to the eulogies and anecdotes, unsure whether to mourn those he knew who were merely presumed dead (in part because he still resented the false grieving he'd been tricked into during the Battle Royale), and even less sure how to respond to those who congratulated him for being alive. Eventually, fearing that he might start to enjoy the cheerful wake, he retreated. He stares at the walls, wondering whether to feel protected by them or contained. He closes his eyes. Opening them, he sees the walls still there. One... two... three... Someone is calling Young Grimwold's name.* [OOC: Continued in Mediaeval Zone.]

[OOC: Continued from Mediaeval Zone.] *YG raises his head from the table. He is back in the Crazed Heifer. The punters, he hears, have become rowdier, and his presence may be needed to instil order. Yet if what he is hearing is the sound of hope, he would not wish to dampen it. There was a time, even if he wasn't aware of it, when Wolfenden and this whole realm had a real purpose, and only with hope may that time come again. YG stands up and begins to walk back out to the drinking area. Long live the hopers, he thinks to himself. The calm and sober ones and the well-meaning drunken fanatics alike. Perhaps even a drop of hope in a bleak situation makes them all fanatics, or 'fans' for short. Even if some have lapsed over time. Something tells Young Grimwold that now is the time for them to remember what is important and be fans again. With Knightmare Castle looming large in his mind alongside the bald wizard's dome, YG says aloud,* Will you restart the fans please! [OOC: Consider these threads the Knightmare Roleplay Forum's tribute to this year's return of Knightmare. YG is next seen in A Silent New Guest.]
