It is you I worry for, Amaya.” The Lady Amaya paused, affixing her gaze to the Grand Prince with furrowed brows. “Your father told me the same, and I promised him I would aid you to the best of my ability,” she uttered. “It is what I believe I am meant to do.” Aleksandr scrutinized the Colborn, then. “It is not what you believe, nor what you think, but what you feel about the Crown.” Passionately, he continued, “It is the folly of Kings before I to detest the Crown! They see it as an intimidating burden one is unlucky to possess...” . . . “Yet this feeling I speak of, Amaya, it ravages within me – my luck. Fate has made it so, I am meant to be King.”“My question is simple: Are you meant to be Queen?” A lingering silence hung in the air as Amaya considered Aleksandr’s words. What she said would next determine the course of her life forever, yet her voice rang true, lacking any indication of hesitance. “Yes. It would be my honour to reign alongside you.” THE ROYAL NUPTIALS OF 480 E.S. [!] A depiction of a grand Haeseni wedding procession gracing the newfound continent. Issued by THE CROWN On this 8th day of Joma ag Umund of 479 E.S.

DahStalker 2860 Share Posted May 30, 2023 (edited) A most joyous scyfling hurried along in her temporary lodging as she beckoned for those about to get out of her way. With the upmost urgency she called servants galore as to ready the paramount of gifts, attires, and other necessities for this Royal union. "Oh, Ada. How our dottir has grown." The Baroness croaked, hoping for grandbabies. Edited May 30, 2023 by DahStalker 8 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
garentoft 8354 Share Posted May 30, 2023 A deranged King sat in a lost library, rambling endlessly and incoherently as he attempted to read literature from ages long ago. Sanity was seeping from his mind, but at least it numbed the agony. 17 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
critter 2490 Share Posted May 30, 2023 Peals of delighted laughter disrupt the quiet of a Kortrevich's reclusive garden, as his very own invitation is waved triumphantly in the air. "At last!" The Grand Lord cries - before the enormity of the oncoming festivities hits him, and his laughter gains a far more manic, exhausted edge, face soon buried in his hands. "And, oh, Godani - already..." 8 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

PerfectlyPeachy 1345 Share Posted May 30, 2023 Franziska clutches her invitation with a semblance of awe, positively overjoyed to have received one personally from the to-be-wedded. Her cheeks flush with joy and she presses the creased piece of parchment to her chest, squealing with excitement as she kicked her feet back and forth from the comfortable perch of her chair. 7 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

PrimnyaQuorum 1051 Share Posted May 30, 2023 A Blonde Weiss-Vuiller had just wrapped up a particularly long medical procedure - silently cursing the lack of a established central medical site on Failor - when the soon-to-be wed Amaya Colborn entered his makeshift workspace. He accepted the ornately wrapped invitation in a confused silence, carefully opening the golden parchment and reading. Among the many questions Haus asked and his friend Amaya answered, one statement stood out "Come as you are, Haus" Those words resonated with Haus as he inspected the olive cloth he had worn over his eyes for the months prior, overlooking his Beet Fields. Perhaps for one day, for a friend - he could put it aside. There could be no harm, right? 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ibiou 1646 Share Posted May 30, 2023 On a voyage back to the people she referred to as home, Lady Emissary Alyona Godunov received her invitation via a crow at sea. She had been sailing since the fall of Almaris, to clear one’s mind of grief — a fog thick in the thoughts of the baroness, that did not disperse at the rise of dawn. A faint smile curled upon her lips now as she held it close, her fingertips rubbing the parchment softly. “Did vy get one too, Malcolm?” Murmured she as she ducked her head out from her cabin, waving the envelope over to a certain Gant she brought along with her over a year ago. “It is the beacon of light that beckons us home.” (@Greehn) 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phoebe202 639 Share Posted May 30, 2023 "Can we go?! Can we go?" The goddaughter of Renilde I would squeal to her parents (and godmother) upon spotting the invitation; bouncing up and down upon her stool near the campfire with excitement as she tugged on her mother's sleeve. "I know Hauchpapej said people from Haense aren't nice, but I've never been to a wedding before... And maybe we could find Yves a lady there, too!"@tilly@EmiliainWonderland@Chorale__@Cloutfather_ 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
