Friends & family of Athus Nadorian aka Brian Dyer

On Tuesday the 11th of October 2011, Athus was involved in a severe car collision that ended his time here with us. The 29 years of his life were filled with amazing stories, incredible adventures and outstanding creativity and talent. He shared his love of life, affection for others and sense of humor with many wonderful people. In memory of Athus and his special life, his closest kin have created a website for others to share their experiences with Athus as well as share photos and artwork. An email address has been established to send your wishes in to be posted on the site athus@athusnadorian.com. Thank you for your kind words, love and support through all of this. Remember to love life, hold your friends close and have a little fun - Athus wouldn't have wanted it any other way.

I have said this on a few journals, but I'll say it here.

I never had the pleasure of knowing the guy, and only added him as a friend on Steam after seeing him at FC this year, just so I could see what Steam games he owned, and talk about Skyrim since I really wanted to get to know him somehow. I know it is very awkward for both fans and artists to come together at times, but I wanted to try.

I got to see his face IRL at FC this year... at the Adult Dragon Panel. Imagining that face... suffering... during those last final moments... makes me sad... and is stamped into my mind. I have been toying with the idea of becoming an artist for awhile now... but with this, I will push that forward, and I will draw a worthy memorial pic someday to honor you, dearest one.

I know Narse will cherish every memory he has of Athus... the last time they kissed... the last time they exchanged their declarations of love... the last time they held one another... the last time they were intimate... I know that is just what I'd do if I were him.

Perhaps I am going a little overboard with this, but I am just this touched. Such true love is something has thus evaded me in life, and to those that have found it, I am genuinely distraught when they lose it. However, it was only lost physically. This is a love that transcends time and space. I know someday they shall be forever reunited. I wish Narse a speedy recovery, both physically and emotionally.

So from my heart to any who took the time to read this (Thank you... you are awesome) I share with you the best song I can think to dedicate to him, and this one comes up, because it reminds me of Athus and Narse
