THE GOLDEN UNION

[DuhPuhWuh 1282]

Issued by the Houses of Aldersberg & Helvets

On the 12th of Owyn’s Flame, 2031

 

ark ye! – Let it be known throughout the ducal lands of Alba that there is to be a union between George Arthur Aldersberg and Helaine Elizabeth Helvets. After confirmation of their betrothal, and dowry satisfied, it is with the most joyous of hearts that the noble houses of Aldersberg and Helvets announce that the two are to be bound by marital promise.

 

---

 

‘Pon the eve of next Saint’s Week, the pair are to be wed in the Cathedral of Saint Raguel wherein the young couple shall bind their union with oaths and promises of marriage. Fore, whence done, the virtuous sacrament shall truss George and Helaine together as one man and wife in ultimate human union with the divine.

 

Following a period of betrothal, which has allowed the couple to establish a healthy rapport, as their hearts and minds are now connected in budding courtly romance so to shall they now become wed. Helaine of house Helvets, a recently gentrified family of Alba, shall find comfort as George Arthur’s consort for as he shall one day take the place of his father as Earl of Dover, she shall become his consort and by consequence a premier noblewoman of the Lowlands and Duchy of Alba.

 

So let it be known, each and all are invited to attend this most perfect of marital unions. May thee bear witness to the young couple’s union and let their promises to one another be whole and true. We offer George Arthur and Helaine Elizabeth our most well wishes and do pray that their marriage be fruitful and loving until death or discontinuance.

[Mamimiux 217]

In a shrine within the Cathedral of Elizabeth, a young nun made prayers for the marriage and future offspring of her biological sister. 

[kuerbis 3802]

The fellow bride Madelief made sure to prepare gift for bride and groom. She hurried through the halls of Cassius' keep, telling him: "Oh we simply have to go!" upon further inspection, she found the Mareno sat amidst horsewhistles and saddles. "Uh- what are you doing?" @Nectorist

[Cubicita 640]

The Bride-to-be Helaine Elizabeth Helvets rubbed the parchment alongside her digits, taking notice of all those her and her betrothed chose to invite. The Helvets soon then surrounded herself with servants, beginning to make arrangements for the upcoming ceremony. 

 

"There shall be many eyes upon me that eve. . . I shall need to acquire a seamstress and prepare a list for my entourage." 

 

Though her chin remained high, an overwhelming suppression weighed heavily upon her stomach, yearning for the union to take place.
