Coooool.

I'm about to dive into this rabbit hole, and if an Ideal Head doesn't say "Time is. Time was. Time is past." I'm going to be severely disappointed.

It's the usual stuff, family member dies, stuff has to be split up between siblings, taxes are due, auction house cheats family members, etc.
