Moenah 1019 Share Posted June 13, 2022 [!] With joy, copies of this missive were not only scattered across Karosgrad, but placed neatly at the doors of the manors and keeps of all the Kingdom’s peers, and each house. To those outside of the city, special invitations were sent by an Aviary. Spoiler [A drawing from a different artist, depicting Elizaveta in deep conversation and planning with the patron spirit of the event – the dear Raven.] THE FANTASTICAL WEDDINGPALOOZA THE UNION OF ELIZAVETA ALBAN & BARLEY WICK An invitation TO THE MERRY AND UNORDINARY For the 6th, in the month of Joma & Umund, 429 E.S VA BIRODEO HERZENAV, EDLERVIK AG KOMYNZ, Following two long decades of being raised side by side as lifelong, childhood friends, naturally – and for everyone to see – a passionate love has blossomed. And through many years of hurdling the restrictions of status and rank, this joyous pair has finally set the time that their souls should be mended together as one in holy matrimony. In line with the complex mind of Lady Alban, this event seeks to forgo the usual bore that comes with the dull feasts and waltzes that follow the wedding ceremony. Thus, the concept of a WEDDINGPALOOZA was born. Though all are invited, should the sight of the unordinary and uncanny of creatures frighten or anger you, consider skipping this event and staying home – for not only is this Weddingpalooza for the people, it is for the creatures who have accompanied the couple their whole life. Even before the wedding takes place, preparations will begin mere days before, based on the many tales and stories the pair has read. The groom is set to depart on a hunt with his dear friends, where they hunt down THREE RAVENS precisely, all while gathering the bones of various animals along the way. These spoils are then given to the bride, as she prepares them for use during the ceremony. The ceremony and events in question will take place in Jerovitz – for there could be no other place than the lands where the couple grew up side by side. Under the watchful eye of GOD, they will be wed in the Chapel of the Venerable Primrose Kortrevich, to be immediately followed by constant merriment and celebration in the form of THREE grand activities: THE DANCE OF TRANSCENDENCE With the month of the matrimony being the harshest in winter, just outside the keep, a grand bonfire will be lit – fueled by the remains of the spoils of the hunt. All invitees are encouraged to join the newlyweds as they dance around its flames, warming themselves – accompanied by song and music. Vials of ‘Transcendence’ and cups of Carrion Black will be provided to promote a more exciting experience. In line with the ongoing theme, three songs will be sung – and nearing the very last one, should the couple be spotted slipping away, guests will dash forth with a dubious prank! During this, the rats – the chosen animal of House Wick – will be given their very own dug-out hole, and attendees will gain the chance to see their own spectacular dance. THE RAT CHASE The spawn of Sergi-boy, first of his name, have been bred with speeds of great renown. The largest rat of his house, Sergi-boy VIII, is a rat of legend – a rat no man has been able to catch. Guests who dare to take on the myth will be led on a chase around Jerovitz, trying to pin a tail on his behind. The very first to do this will be, with the permission of Sir Candle Wick, crowned CHAMPION OF THE WICKWALD. THE WHEAT BOWL For the manliest of men and artists of the blade, a tournament will be held in the newlyweds’ honor. Before dueling, fighters must lather themselves in the very dirt they seek to battle on, sticking onto their armor the feathers of a bird of their choice. The last standing will be named champion, the GRAND RAVEN PRINCE (regardless of gender), and given the almighty BLACK HELM. During all the festivities, food will be provided for all – including special sustenance for creatures, fae, and deities.

doreebear 601 Share Posted June 13, 2022 within the Jerovitz kitchen A thin, fair skinned dame was seen selecting lackluster and withered flowers, then assembling them into a bouquet. "Hmm, a perfect present for Liz..." she sang as she turned to face Avram. Truly, she thought such a gift was appropriate, for her dearest companion. "What shall we give to my darling brother as a present? Allow him to strike you across the face just once to make things better?" The flare jest. @GlassySkies The Wick then turned her attention to her beloved Magda, a sublime expression on her countenance. "Tell me, Maggy. would black be acceptable for this wedding?" The wick began to sway the dresses she was holding in front of her back and forth, seeking to figure out which one would look best on her. @Melpomenne 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melpomenne 1553 Share Posted June 13, 2022 Catalina Nadia beamed with glee, assisting the bride in choosing the best fabrics for her wedding gown and curating the entertainment alongside Calanthe.

However crude, the bastard would bob his head merrily. 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benjikhei 696 Share Posted June 13, 2022 [!] From the Depths, rumbles a deep gurgling.. something, awakened. High-Gerent and SUPREME Shah of the Wonkawoods Diaspora; Mudskips The Merciful seems to delight in merriment at his beckoning to the celebratory gathering. Thereafter seeking to emerge from whatever ocean depths he scoured at present to the surface once more, gasping and croaking a few moments before a writhing tongue reaches for a nearby water insect, as the titanous leviathan dared to ponder further. "What's in a gift? OOH! I know, I know~ !" 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CopOwl 1668 Share Posted June 13, 2022 Adele Ludovar is a little worried about attending this event, that of her peculiar sister-in-law. "Ea wonder what Elizaveta has cooked up this time around... Maybe she'll have the entire Chapel turned into frogs. O-or maybe she'll make Barley takes his vows as a frog. Ea don't think ea'll bring Emma, as planned..." She muses, eyes glancing to her sleeping daughters nestled in the Otistadt nursery. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jolfrey 155 Share Posted June 13, 2022 Mathias Colborn looked at the missive placed in front of his family's manor. He was looking forward to this celebration. Being only six years of age, he had never attended a wedding before, much less a weddingpalooza. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
