A friendly goodbye to a fellow Slovenian

Day 1,552, 12:23 • Published in Slovenia Slovenia • by Ice Killa

I'm not used to making articles about real life, but I do have to say this is an exception, an exception that has every right to be so. With watery eyes I am writing this. Who was Don Kronox? It's hard to say who he wasn't, he went above the call of duty on occassions, the things he was prepared to do for his homeland were simply magnificent, he was an honorable man with a pure heart. He never had luck with his health, it was one of the main reasons why he stopped playing this game - beside saving some money. But overall, he did make his name heard in eRepublik, even if that was his intention or not, he did it and brought smile on everyone's faces while he made a lot of damage. He made us happy, he made friends, allies, brothers and sisters happy, it probably was his goal to do what he wanted to and he did it in a remarkable way.

It's never a good to write a goodbye to a fellow Slovenian, even if I didn't know him in real life, it's never a good thing to hear such an unexpected thing. Just 20 hours ago he was twitting normally, he was using Facebook and now all of a sudden he's gone. It makes you wonder, why and how? It's an awkward feeling and yes, you get weird feeling in your throat. A moment of sadness goes through your body, you are in a state of paralysis. When we had him we weren't aware of what we had, once he left this game we found out what we lost for real, but if that wasn't enough, now we lost him in real life, a Slovenian who everyone thought well of.

I may not have known him that well in eRepublik, although I had some short conversations with him. It seems like at the time he was meant to be forever, that moment will be there forever in our minds. But we'll miss his name like hell, all of us. Even if he was your enemy, even if he was our ally or one of us, we will miss him. At the time when we face the truth, it doesn't matter on whose's side you are. Been talking about that how things change, but his name will life forever. If you don't know what to make of his name, just remember it, charish it and regard it as one of those who you will forever keep in your minds.

He was a man of honor, wisdom and above all courage to do what he felt was right.

As Slovenians would say,
Počivaj v miru, Don Kronox!
