"As Willow has explained the volcano, and what happened to Mizzinx, it has been decided that we will have a barbecue to celebrate her life. Find and bring some cow and the biggest river fishie you can find. And potatoes. And worms. Everyone should have a full belly to take the memory of Mizzinx with them. We even have a special treat from the Harmony place that Willow brought with them for the funeral barbecue. A soft sweet tasty thing you set fire to before eating it, the marshed mellow will be an excellent addition to the send off for the goblin." | "As Willow has explained the volcano, and what happened to Mizzinx, it has been decided that we will have a barbecue to celebrate her life.
