Your words are full of wisdom.

I have incorporated many of your recommendations into what follows.  I
admit, I am tempted to change "garment" to "shirt", and put the full
stop after the word "fabric".  But I think this is an improvement on
the previous.

Revision Mk. 29:


My esteemed parents did themselves the honor of traveling to Dragaera
City for a holiday, enjoying that city's tolerably fine meals and
expensive entertainments.  However, the unfortunate timing of their
visit led to its interruption by the riots and uprisings preceding
that crucial point in our history when the conflict between Lord Adron
e'Kieron and Emperor Tortaalik erupted into open rebellion,
culminating in the explosion of raw amorphia that transformed the city
and its environs into the Lesser Sea of Chaos.  While I am happy to
report that said parents had the good fortune to escape the Disaster
and return home safely with their luggage, they pretended that due to
the haste of their departure from the city, the only token that they
could provide of their adventure was this nearly unremarkable garment
made, you perceive, of sadly cheap fabric, in the form of this common
shirt.
