Francel: Why...that I did! Lord Haurchefant was a most benevolent man. There were few things he enjoyed more than sharing a good meal in the company of his friends and his men alike.

Mistrustful Merchant: Aye, and I was one of them. I fondly remember the times I sat at his table, sharing in his meat and mead. In the warmth of his hall and his company, for a moment you could forget the bitter cold outside. It’s a memory that’s stayed with me to this day, long after I returned to Gridania and hung up my blade. Lord Haurchefant was a great man, and I had hoped to return to Ishgard one day to visit him. But then the news of his tragic passing arrived...Even now, I find it hard to believe he’s gone.

Francel: I as well, my friend. Not a day goes by that I do not think of him, and the kindness he showed me in the darkest of days...And though I will forever mourn his passing, I take solace in knowing that his sacrifice was not for naught. For because of those like him—and WOL here—the war is at long last over, and our nation welcomes a new age of enlightenment and restoration.

Just met him with an alt for the first time...
