Almo the Saint, known for his white beard and even whiter teeth, was found on the streets of a city this morning. Cloaked in his traditional clergical uniform, the bewildered ancient had been meandering about the town the night before; residents spoke kindly of the old man, indicating that it had become a kind of ritual.
Visiting upon the poor and rich alike with equal adlomb, Almo would nearly bring a smile to even the most frustrated of onlookers. His exploits were so well known throughout the vicinity of his death that, in memorium, the venue upon which his house stood was voted to be named after him; sadly the recommendation did not pass.
Ultimately even attempts to complete his tombstone fell oddly incomplete. All that was left of his fine history, exploits, and adventures read simply:
