I’m deeply saddened by the loss of my dear friend @atheopagan, who passed away after nearly a decade of friendship.

They fought valiantly to create a fulfilling life and embodied kindness and honor in every interaction. Their spirit will always remain in my heart. Rest in peace, dear friend. Your impact on my life and the lives of others will never be forgotten. Link to tribute.

My friend of nearly ten years @atheopagan passed away.

It’s hard to put into words the shock and sadness that comes with losing a friend. The news of @atheopagan’s passing hit me like a ton of bricks. We shared nearly a decade of our lives, filled with laughter, deep conversations, and countless memories. From our bimonthly catchups in virtual chats to our endless discussions about our projects, every moment was a treasure. Losing someone who was such a constant presence in my life feels surreal.

I will miss bimonthly catchups in vc and yapping about our projects

Those catchups meant the world to me. We would dive into our creative endeavors, sharing ideas and encouraging each other to keep pushing forward. @atheopagan had a unique way of looking at life and projects that inspired me. Whether it was brainstorming the next big thing or simply chatting about our daily lives, these moments were invaluable. The passion we shared for our projects was contagious, and I always looked forward to those conversations. Now, the silence feels deafening.

and bitching about how bg3 ruined crpgs.

Ah, the debates! One of our favorite topics was the impact of modern games on classic genres. We would go back and forth about how *Baldur’s Gate 3* (BG3) changed the landscape of CRPGs. It was a love-hate relationship, filled with playful banter and passionate arguments. We both loved the classic elements of CRPGs and often reminisced about the games that shaped our gaming experiences. Those discussions, while sometimes heated, were always filled with respect and humor. The joy of sharing opinions, even if they clashed, was a testament to our friendship.

I’ll always be proud of how hard they fought to carve out a life

What I admired most about @atheopagan was their resilience. They faced challenges head-on and never backed down. Their journey was not always easy, but they fought fiercely to carve out a life that reflected their values and passions. It was inspirational to watch them navigate through obstacles with grace and determination. I often found myself in awe of their ability to turn struggles into strength. Their spirit of perseverance will always stay with me, reminding me to face my own challenges with the same courage.

and how kind and honourable they were.

Beyond their tenacity, @atheopagan had a heart of gold. Their kindness knew no bounds, and they always made time for others, lending a listening ear or offering words of encouragement. They embodied honor and integrity in everything they did. I feel incredibly lucky to have known someone who genuinely cared about the well-being of others. Their compassion was a beacon of light, and it’s a quality that I will strive to emulate in my own life.

As I reflect on our time together, I am filled with gratitude for the moments we shared. It’s hard to say goodbye, but I know that the memories we created will last a lifetime. Rest in peace, @atheopagan. You will be deeply missed, and your legacy will continue to inspire those who had the privilege to know you. Thank you for being a part of my life. Your impact will never be forgotten.
