Where the River meets the Tree

 

---



It was a day as any other in the earldom, the sounds of the blacksmith forge echoing throughout the square, the snow-topped ash tree a staple amongst the moving tide of people. Men, women and children alike milled about their daily business, sending mismatched greetings between themselves as they went about their day. Within the organised chaos, two souls stood unified, their conscience heavy with excitement, their minds filled with ideas, with hope. Beneath the Ash tree, a man stood tall, his hand raised to catch the attention of the people.

 

The hustle of the city fell silent, bartering merchants shrouded by the growing quiet. Torsten Ruric looked out amongst the citizens, beside him standing the smaller frame of a woman, Carina Fiscere. As the two stood there, a small crowd would soon begin to gather.

 

“People of Nordengrad, In the coming svenday, we are to be wed!” They pair announced in glee, the crowd soon erupting into congratulations and well-wishes. Amongst the breaking busyness the two shared a smile- a symbol of the coming years they’d share.”

 

To All Folk of Nordengrad:

 

The Throne is pleased to announce the betrothal of Torsten Ruric to that of Chieftess Carina Fiscere. All denizens of Nordengrad are invited to partake in the festivities of the wedding. All who dwell within the realm are welcome to attend. Gifts will be provided to every Keyholder of the realm a is tradition.

[LatzMomo 2088]

Robin tries to think of a time that Torsten didn't stand by his side when he really needed it... but he just can't.

[The Elder Eye 101]

A peculiar Dwarfess listened on to the chattering in the local tavern, the news of the wedding beginning to swirl through the many residents of the surrounding cities. Upon being informed, she simply asked, "Who?"

[Narthok 10416]

Thoromir smiles going to congratulate his cousin, who dwelt across from him in the Rurikid apartments “Etss good t’ah see ye grow int’ah y’er maturity ‘n find y’self a fine wife cousin.” he’d say grasping Torsten’s forearm firmly as he’d encounter the man

[Nhisha 8]

Octavia Fiscere would look down upon the flyer with disgust. A quick roll of her dark green eyes and she would ponder around wherever the South’s path next chose to take the woman.
