And we thank you. Both for the Realms and its lore, and for allowing others to play is such a marvelous sandbox. I've been thinking a lot about why D&D is my system of choice, and the Realms is a huge part of that answer.

You're very welcome! For me, one of the best rewards has been all the friends I've made along the way who make their own rich contributions to the lore, from fictioneers to game designers to fans who delve deep into the cuisine or geology or "what if" backroom politics. :}
