Norrath takes on a different, more historic look with the passing of each original contributor. The Qeynos sewers being associated with the loss of Brad, and now Castle Mistmoore with Hutch.

Although these guys would rather be alive, they thankfully got to live out the ultimate nerds dream and be forever honoured in a game. That's pretty cool for their legacy I think..
