[CLAPSPAM SANITIZED, SPEECH ONLY TRANSCRIPT]
(11/18 12:00:19) Patrick Dulebohn: Right then...it's time!
(11/18 12:00:22) Isa =^.^=: Lol Ana
(11/18 12:00:24) Patrick Dulebohn: Thank you all for coming once again!
(11/18 12:00:25) Dni_seeker 5: AGREED!
(11/18 12:00:40) Ro"Jethhe: NT go easy on the beans, warm air rises.
(11/18 12:01:01) Patrick Dulebohn: It's been a little while, but we're finally back to celebrate a new Linking Book added to the Chiso Preniv pedestals and to our ever-growing restoration of D'ni.
(11/18 12:01:22) Patrick Dulebohn: The D'ni have a very rich history and culture, and while there are many defining moments in that history, few can compare to the tragic and devastating loss they experienced at the end of their vast empire.
(11/18 12:01:34) ghoul nods her head
(11/18 12:01:46) Patrick Dulebohn: Thankfully, they, as a people, live on in the Age of Releeshahn, but they are merely a fraction of the D'ni citizens that passed away during what is commonly referred to as "The Fall".
(11/18 12:01:47) Isa =^.^=: Hi Mak
(11/18 12:01:59) Runa'mei nods her head
(11/18 12:02:00) Patrick Dulebohn: It is with that in mind that this new island in the D'ni cavern will be presented to you today.
(11/18 12:02:19) skyisblu nods her head
(11/18 12:02:23) Patrick Dulebohn: What you'll see today is the tireless work of not only Keith Lord, who earlier brought us Fahets: Highgarden, but also quite noteworthy, it is the idea of one of our colleagues here, Christopher Therberg.
(11/18 12:02:40) Rock Ardemar claps his hands
(11/18 12:02:41) Kodak kneels down...
(11/18 12:02:41) Patrick Dulebohn: He is the primary reason we are here today, and what you will see is the result of his brilliant work, along with Keith.
(11/18 12:02:45) D'eux is amazed!
(11/18 12:02:51) Kodak kneels down...
(11/18 12:02:53) Patrick Dulebohn: So without further ado, I give you Christopher Therburg!
(11/18 12:02:59) Christopher Therburg: Thanks Patrick.
(11/18 12:03:09) Christopher Therburg: Shorah everyone.
(11/18 12:03:14) Korora waves hello
(11/18 12:03:14) Dni_seeker 5: Co coffin y
(11/18 12:03:17) D'eux: Shorah!
(11/18 12:03:22) Christopher Therburg: Wow, thats very exciting for me. I'm apologize for being a little nervous, it's the first time I'm doing something like this.
(11/18 12:03:23) norm7629 claps his hands
(11/18 12:03:32) Malim Praedari waves hello
(11/18 12:03:33) Patrick Dulebohn smiles
(11/18 12:03:42) Christopher Therburg: Anyway.
(11/18 12:03:46) TOOO knows all about stage fright
(11/18 12:03:53) darkwingduck: all good chris:)
(11/18 12:03:55) Christopher Therburg: After three years of work and restoration, it's finally time to reveal the Fall of D'ni Memorial Island, or Bahn'tefoonet in D'ni. Bahn'tefoonet means Memorial Island in D'ni.
(11/18 12:04:11) Ro"Jethhe is amazed!
(11/18 12:04:20) Christopher Therburg: I'm really grateful to Keith, also known as Tweek, and everyone else who worked on this island that everything worked out so well in restoring and turning this island into a memorial site.
(11/18 12:04:41) Christopher Therburg: It was a life's work for me and without Tweek, who volunteered to continue and finish the island with me, this work would have been much slower and would be released at a later.
(11/18 12:04:43) Kodak: A very fitting monument to honor those whose history we stand in
(11/18 12:04:55) Murry: emrai
(11/18 12:04:56) D'eux nods his head
(11/18 12:05:04) Christopher Therburg: He is at the moment not there sadly, but I heard that he will come later eventually.
(11/18 12:05:24) Christopher Therburg: A summary of the project itself and why I have planned all of this.
(11/18 12:05:39) Christopher Therburg: Five to three years earlier, I took a closer view at the cavern and noticed that the DRC or someone else didn't erected a memorial to the "Fall of D'ni", one of the worst events, if not the worst, in D'ni history.
(11/18 12:06:01) D'eux nods his head
(11/18 12:06:03) Christopher Therburg: I wanted to change that and it would be nice to build a memorial that fits the style of D'ni architecture. This memorial is meant to commemorate the D'ni who perished in this cataclysm.
(11/18 12:06:20) Christopher Therburg: The Fall of D'ni, was attack on the D'ni civilization by Veovis and A'gaeris, who used an unknown biochemical agent to kill most of the empire's population in Leesahn 8, 9400 DE.
(11/18 12:06:31) <sniffle> D'eux is sad
(11/18 12:06:44) Korora bows his head.
(11/18 12:06:52) TvHex bows
(11/18 12:06:54) Runa'mei closes her eyes
(11/18 12:06:55) Christopher Therburg: I had considered placing the memorial in Ae'gura, but there were some complications with two locations where the memorial should have been. Calum suggested then that I should place the memorial in a special location outside of Ae'gura.
(11/18 12:06:56) TOOO: (I suspect it's the same virus Ahlsender released)
(11/18 12:07:22) Christopher Therburg: Then I remembered this little island with the broken stalagmite near Ae'gura that I saw while exploring the cavern about eight years ago. We thought this would be a better location for it and it also have a nice view of Ae'gura and the whole D'ni cavern.
(11/18 12:07:40) D'eux nods his head
(11/18 12:07:41) Patrick Dulebohn nods
(11/18 12:07:48) Christopher Therburg: This island, which was formerly a small D'ni park, worked very well as a memorial place and after two years of restoration it's finally ready.
(11/18 12:08:08) Thumbs up from rarified
(11/18 12:08:16) Christopher Therburg: We hope that the memorial will respects the deceased D'ni and that mostly new explorers will have a better understanding of the context of why it happened and why the D'ni City is empty now.
(11/18 12:08:38) Christopher Therburg: We also hope that this island will also become a place of peace in the upcoming years.
(11/18 12:08:42) D'eux nods his head
(11/18 12:08:45) Korora is still unable to fathom the depths of A'gaeris' spite.
(11/18 12:08:47) Kodak: We have done our best to fill it
(11/18 12:08:51) Cave woman: amen
(11/18 12:09:03) Christopher Therburg: But I've talked long enough, it's now time to officially open the island.
(11/18 12:09:13) Patrick Dulebohn smiles
(11/18 12:09:21) K'laamas: .prad kotsahvtee .prad edertee .yahvo pilelen yeret veelayon

(11/18 12:09:34) Christopher Therburg places the book on the pedestal.
