We Shall All Return to Him

[ibraheemc2000 2965]

 

The night was a cold foggy night, Silence took hold of Al-Damashq, A cold wind took hold from the north and graced the south. Saeed ibn Malek layed in bed, illness took over him, cold and fragil the old man layed there, He could barely lift his arm, his eyes wetten as he looked through his window in front of him, A night so similar to that of his old home, The night so clear with stars and the beautiful crescent moon sent a shiver down his old weary spine. A young dervish sat next to him, a look of worry, His eyes wet with tears as he pat the old man’s sweating forehead as he watched his Sheik lay their helpless, wrapped up in his bed as the old man coughed and weezed, he weakly spoke “Sz-sz-Sa’a-a-ad.” the old man struggled as he spoke to the dervish “R-r-re-cit--” he would Begin coughing harshly, the dervish could not help but let a tear roll down his own cheek to see the old man struggle “C-ccha-chapter- th-thirteen..” upon hearing this the dervish could not help but cry...Chapter thirteen...Seven Skies… He called for another dervish to gather the caliph and saeeds loved ones and began reciting.

 

Saeed Closed his eyes as tears flowed from his eyes and dripped gently off his old soft cheeks, as the Caliph entered and many other Kadarsi, the old man sat there weak coughing and weezing, he looked to the others and looked back out his window, his window of memories.

He remembered when he was first sold as a young boy to the Al-Nabeels, How he made his brother Amin Al-Shams(Al-nabeel), And how Amin saved his life from Amin’s father, giving him to Fakhri Kharadeen, He remembered becoming head falconer, he remembered the merchant trips, he remembered doing his first gardening, he remembered the wars he stopped, He remembered his embracement with Amin when he became judge, He remembered becoming Grand imam, He remembered fakhri’s wedding, He remembered Auda’s Birth, He remembered raising Auda, He remembered sitting and caring for Faiz Kharadeen on his deathbed, he remembered playing his violin in the bakery, He remembered the farfolk oppression, He remembered Amin’s Death, he remembered Auda’s Jihads and protection of the farfolks, he remembered the day the Sultanate became a caliphate…

With that he mustered all his strength and raised his finger slightly above the bed and said aloud with a strong teary voice he gave his final Shahada, his final declaration of his faith “I bear witness, He is Allah, the One and Only; Allah, the Eternal, Absolute; He begets not, nor is He begotten; And there is none comparable unto Him. There is only One God and that is Allah, and forever shall I follow His light.” the old man then slowly lowered his arm and rested it onto the bed, and gave one final breath, his chest descended and did not rise. Saeed Ibn Malek Had Returned back to Seven Skies.

 

It hurt so much to write this post...I raised Saeed from age three...He became much like me irl , I grown so attached to him...i done so much with saeed...I made so many friends with him...i can't even type...it hurts to much to say anything...but he was a hero to me, a true hero. Saeed Was me, He was how i would genuinely feel or act...he was a copy and paste of me, and i didn't have the heart to write this all...he witnessed the good of this community...and how it went and changed...I will not say for the better...just how it changed...I wanted him die now before someone tries to destroy his reputation, and hurt him like how they do now in ooc...In say...He is the marker of when the community truly lost. Saeed I played for so long to accomplish so many dreams and hopes that anyone would wish for…If there was any book or movie worth making it would be on him...He was a Hero and protagonist and genuine story that was built, from a sky a quiet servant to a strong well mannered and braved hero, To a knowledgeable elder...to a Teacher...who passed down his knowledge to so many others.. He was a mentor, a hero, I just can't even begin to begin to just give this char the Honor he deserves...No character i have felt this attached to..Where I actually took inspiration from...this is one of the last chars that knew Faiz Kharadeen besides Ibraheem Aladeen...I don't know what to say...

Daisy Applefoot the halfling gives a salute to the deceased hero, although she hardly even knows who he was.

Demetrio would welcome Saeed into the Seven Skies, being grateful a man he considered a teacher and father-figure had joined him.

Rhasad would frown.

"See you in the Seven Skies."

Caliph Auda Kharadeen falls to the ground as he weeps in tears "Inshallah i see you soon Saeed.. May you find pleasure in the company of Amin Al Shams, Faiz Kharadeen, Arlen and Falhri Kharadeens, Nabeels family, Abdullah ibn hakim, Yassir ibn Ghazrial, an-" his voice begins breaking "a-and Ashur ibn mahmoud and khalid ibn mahmoud..."
