For those that haven't heard...I'd like to inform everyone that Grianne passed away this weekend. She was a good friend and she'll be missed by many.
The details of her passing is gruesome from what I've heard so I'll refrain from sharing. If you'd like to pay your respects, there is a memorial topic in OoT.

:( I am really shocked to learn this had happened. I have know Kyrin before she and I beaten Maat.
All I have to say is what my grandfather said to me last year: "If you can see me one more time, it is one more time for you that you had seen me." And that applied to everyone and not just to my 80+ grandfather. Better care and treasure the opportunities you get to care and talk to someone.
It is not will the most shocking, unexpected, sad thing will happen or not, it is when it will happen. It is best take nothing for granted, and talk, care and love to them when the opportunity is still there.

I'm so sorry, my condolences to her family and she will be very missed, both in game and on the boards. 
I must return to this forum to give condolences...this is where I first met her.
She will be greatly missed.

Shocked, confused and sad. My condolences go out to her family and friends.
One of Cerberuses old school players. Still remember her from back in the day, our ways kinda parted in FFXI a while ago, different LS's etc, but nonetheless, you belonged to our Cerberus family and will be missed.

Kyrin has never done well in Internet popularity contests, but I wanted to say, people should remember Kyrin as a person, not Kyrin as pixels. Kyrin is often not the easiest person to deal with, but she never acted intentionally in bad faith. Kyrin is a good person, a friend, no matter how hard it is to deal with her.
You may not specifically like what Kyrin has said and done in the game. But I wanted to ask people to at least step back one moment to remember there is a person behind the screen.
I am getting so old school that I do not give a damn to a lot of things in the game -- I think most people will know that I will have probably do things differently if I do give so much damn into it. It has been long time I actually played the game to be a loot or achievement *****; yet I think this game's loot and internet achievement whoring has never been as big as it is now. In the end, this is still just a freaking game.

While I didn't know her very well, Grianne was part of my endgame linkshell, and I'm very saddened to hear about this tragedy, especially with a person with so much life ahead of them. My condolences to her family, friends, and all who knew her.
Sad that she is gone..
Angry that I didn't talk to her/get to know her more.. I remember she was there for me when I had troubles with a certain scenarios from my time in this server><.

It is only in absolutely respectfulness that I use one of my hymns in memory of her. One of my master pieces designed to ease the minds of the saddened. The language used is the long forgotten emotion language called hymmnos. Translation in brackets. The ending has been extended for obvious....reasons...

I never thought that losing someone you only lightly knew through text could be such an emotional experience, but it really makes me sad. I knew her through the OoT and I was so excited because she was the first OoTer from cerberus (As far as I knew) and had a lot of fun conversing with her in game. Now it just makes me sad I never got the chance to know her better, or anything. RIP... Oh man, I am so sorry to hear this :(

Grianne and I hadn't conversed much in recent months, but I had always though highly of her. My heart goes out to her friends and family, and I hope that she is resting in peace.

I can't say that Grianne and I talked a lot, but from what little we did I knew that she was a great person. She seemed to have wonderful things ahead of her, and lord knows she deserved better. I'm going to miss her a lot. She worked hard for the things she had and went above and beyond everyone's expectations. She was one of the great ones, and she will surely be missed by many.
I'm not sure if her family will ever see this, but I hope they know that she made a huge impact on people all across the world.

I don't know if this is a proper tribute or respect or anything but I felt like sharing.
I made this during last year's Summerfest.

I guess I'll always have something to remember the good times when we were still friends. :'(

God's speed Grianne.
I'm currently working on a project with Darqflame to put together a wiki page in memory of Kylin. I wanted to include some form of eulogy to go with the hymn and comments so far received.
What I need are some stories of Kylin from her friends. Send them via PM please.
Also, since the comments will be going up on the wiki as pulled from this thread, if you want to have a different name aside from your posting name associated with your quote, please PM me with it.
And Admins, don't hate me, I'm going to be cross posting to all the threads to avoid creating new threads for threads that already exist.

I was unfortunately informed today that another recent passing had occurred in Cerberus. Swseeker has passed away because of pneumonia. :(
It has been a tough week in Cerberus.
May he rest in peace.

Swseeker was such a great guy as i'm sure many people already know. Definetly one of the friendliest people i have come across in my time playing ffxi and very dedicated to our linkshell and being the best he could.
This terrible news has made me so sad.
RIP Swseeker
