Jacques and Rinaldo,

I considered Kharnum Throm a rare friend, whom despite his outward appearance and mannerisms, was actually quite mild towards me. I would like to attend Kharnum's funeral, not as an Agent but as Jacob, the one you knew and worked with before he joined the ranks, before your rise to power that seemed to surprise everybody except me. I am working on a poem in his honor, intended to be short, snappy, and compete with the songs that some might compose for your prize. A few of the lines have already been worked out, but I need help with more, assuming you would accept a poem. Where did he come from and how did he get here? What were some of his notable accomplishments? How old was he? Could you share any humorous stories about him? I would be glad to know everything there is to know about him before I finish this poem.

Jacob
