The Royal Wedding In the Empire(IC, Closed)

[McNernia]

[
"Perhaps you could and yet..I have other things to attend to." there was nothing said until the end of the ceremony.

The queen noted that and return to watch the rest of the ceremony.

The King after the ceremony kissed his own wife. Lord Attleham approached her. "Your Majesty I have argued in the House of Lords for Princess Amanda to be Queen, some are against it."

Jilyah yawned as the wedding drew on, she didn't really care much for it. It was a Human/Elf wedding, after all. If it was a Reptilian wedding, she would have actually cared about it. What she did care about was the being she was sitting next to, for she was rather to eager to see how the day would go.

Black-Tail himself barely hold back a yawn, all this false romantic, this vows, this flowers this... fairy tale, it wasn't his world. At least he had good company, reminding him on what he could do with her when they were back in their quarters. From time to time he couldn't refuse to let his eyes wander about her body instead of the wedding but he refused to touch more then her tail with his own.
Finally after the vows were done and the new wed couple was gone the etiquette allowed to leave...

Jilyah endured it all and was quite relieved once it was all over and they could leave. Sighing with relief, the princess looked over at Black-Tail and said to her, "Let us go now, Black-Tail. At last, it is over."

"I'm sorry Leona," Russell replied as he looked at her and held her hand gently. "But it's best if you don't worry about me that much. Don't get yourself worked up about trying to extend my lifespan by centuries. I don't really think that's possible, even if the Elves did have some sort of longevity magic. I don't think I'm going anywhere anytime soon anyways. We'll both make it through the war I'm sure of that." Said Russell, stating it more as a fact than as an opinion. He looked at her ankle again, wondering what to do about it. "Well, there's no point trying to find our way out of the forest when we can't see, it's best if we just stay here for the night,"

While the Constannians were on their way back to the hotel room they noticed a carriage stopped along the way. Holy Emperor Charles, Lord General Brinford, and Sir Skyriknir got out to inspect it, and discovered that it was the carriage Leona and Russell had been in. "Where is my son, you fool?!" Holy Emperor Charles demanded from the tired carriage driver. After being told the two young royals had ran off into the woods Prince Edward spoke up.

"I'll go find them father, no need to trouble everyone else. You can head back to the palace," And with that the Crown Prince began walking into the forest in search of his youngest brother…

As the night become colder and darker, Leona was very thankful that Russell was with her. Even with all of the training she had received within the Imperium for situations such as this, Leona felt nice that she could have someone such as Russell to depend on. As they maintained their fire and as her ankle became more wounded and infected, Leona became more vulnerable and needy towards Russell as her ankle wounds had caused her to take on a fever. Becoming a bit pale, Leona continued her conversation with Russell. "My love, thank you for this. I know that there will be times I will be difficult with you, but I'm thankful you have the coolness and laid back attitude to deal with me. And I do believe we can find a way to extend your life with you retaining your heritage; whether it be through me or through someone else. We may only be teenagers now, but I still can't image the rest of my life without you at my side." As Leona took a moment to catch her breath, her face clearly showed she was flustered and that her broken ankle was only complicating things even more. As she looked as her ankle, Leona made a light comment. "Well, I guess I deserve this for running away from you earlier."

As night started to settle on the palace, Tiberius was becoming more and more restless that he hadn't seen Russell or Leona yet. He knew they wanted their alone time as they were just married, but still it was getting dark and they hand't returned back to the palace yet. Worrying, Tiberius saw some relief when he saw Emperor Charles and his party come back. Walking over to his ally, Tiberius shook Charles's hand as he spoke up to him. "My friend, out of question, have you seen either Russell or my daughter? I haven't seen them since after the wedding and I'm starting to worry a bit as it is getting dark outside and they haven't returned yet."

Vera smiled at Francis and waved her hand. Francis felt himself moved to the bed and then had soft sheet ties his hand to the bedpost. Amirra and Anala came with a whips and leather. Anala said sweetly. "Francis, Time for more punishment."

After another long and joyousness night of romance and passion, Francis enjoyed another long sleep with his wives until the next morning. As he awoke, Francis remembered that General Falylin was coming up to his suite to discuss some war material with himself and with some other leaders within the alliance. Trying not to disturb his sleeping wives, Francis took a quick shower before he headed into the adjacent study room for the meeting. Since it was still early in the morning, Francis decided to take in some coffee and read a bit to himself while he heard his wives beginning to wake up in the separate room..........

Jilyah endured it all and was quite relieved once it was all over and they could leave. Sighing with relief, the princess looked over at Black-Tail and said to her, "Let us go now, Black-Tail. At last, it is over."

The dragon lord send her a wide grin. " Yes at last it's over, now do you mind if we went directly back in our quarters ? I'm not a fan of all this polite conversations and stuff. Also we have to seal something or do you change your mind ?" The last question was rhetorical, even now he could smell her desire towards him.

[The Elven Imperium]

"I'm very civil", Alex protested.
"Ignore him", Isadore said. "Kirimi is here because a boy loves her and she wants to know more about it".
"And we'd be here all month if we were to tell you everything about our country", Kirimi said.
"History and culture are our most important classes back home", Alex put in.

Vonika looked at Kirimi and smiled. "So the rumors are false. Your people can actual fall in love." She said with a smile.

[The Elven Imperium]

She took her hands back again and returned her gaze to the walls. "I see. It sounds vaguely... well. Intimate."

Jarwyn smiled. "It quite a lovely thing....it's magical....like you." Jarwyn caught himself. He didn't mean to blurt those words out. He was just trying to explain Elven romance and he got lost in the moment. Jarwyn hope Sariah wouldn't be upset with his words.

Jilyah yawned as the wedding drew on, she didn't really care much for it. It was a Human/Elf wedding, after all. If it was a Reptilian wedding, she would have actually cared about it. What she did care about was the being she was sitting next to, for she was rather to eager to see how the day would go.

Kalyk, meanwhile, smiled at Estril as she took hold of his hand. He too, was eager for this wedding to be over with so she could go out with Estril more. Geana, on the other claw, was bored out of her mind. Generally, weddings were something she couldn't stand and she tried her best to avoid falling asleep. Unfortunately, she did, leaning over a bit yet making sure it seemed she was watching the wedding.

Estril held Kalyk hand tenderly. She moved her tail on the bench to wrap with his. She gave him a soft look that spoke volumes of what she wanted to do after the wedding.

[The Elven Imperium]

Ruby flashed her most dazzling smile."Of course, your highness, I would love to accompany you."

Jaren took Ruby by the arm and lead her out of the temple. He lead her into a private carriage that was waiting for him outside the temple. He smiled as he got in as this would be the perfect time to speak with the Nuridian royal alone. When the where all seated, the carriage started it's trip. While they where riding, Jaren dared a question. "So your first time in the Empire Ruby?"

[The Elven Imperium]

The King after the ceremony kissed his own wife. Lord Attleham approached her. "Your Majesty I have argued in the House of Lords for Princess Amanda to be Queen, some are against it."

The queen turned to Andrew. "People are in opposition to Amanda as heir?"

Anala brought out some more coffee for Francis. As she put it down, she tried to spy on the reports. "Anything good my love?"

[Nuridia]

"Yes, my one regret is that I'm not very well travelled." "It's very lovely here though, and I enjoy it." She wore a deep sapphire blue tudor gown with a square neckline and her fiery hair was caught in a golden hairnet. The neckline was filled in with a semi-transparent high-necked partlet.

[Haktiva]

Vonika looked at Kirimi and smiled. "So the rumors are false. Your people can actual fall in love." She said with a smile.

"The boy loves her", Isadore corrected. "What my daughter feels is her business".

[The Elven Imperium]

"Yes, my one regret is that I'm not very well travelled." "It's very lovely here though, and I enjoy it." She wore a deep sapphire blue tudor gown with a square neckline and her fiery hair was caught in a golden hairnet. The neckline was filled in with a semi-transparent high-necked partlet.

Jaren smiled. "Thank you....I rather enjoy my country too. So Ruby ever talked or associate with Elves before?"

[The Elven Imperium]

"The boy loves her", Isadore corrected. "What my daughter feels is her business".

Vonika smiled. "Well that is true. We are entitle to our own feelings. Just surprised that Haktivan had romance. I heard your people where cold warriors."

[Haktiva]

Vonika smiled. "Well that is true. We are entitle to our own feelings. Just surprised that Haktivan had romance. I heard your people where cold warriors."

"Well we've been isolationists 'till about a hundred years ago. So we drove off anyone who tried to come in and killed them if they persisted", Isadore replied.

[Nuridia]

Ruby turned to him. "Well, some Elves live in Nuridia, and they're very peaceable and intelligent beings. The only Elves I've known well until today are my friend Niamh and Lord Lars."

[Kingdom of Phoenixia]

They lay into their spot until it become late and the moon rise up. It was quiet, far to quiet. The festivity died out but even the smallest noise was nowhere to heard.
" My love I think we should return to the palace, we will be missed." They returned back to the palace, hand in hand with new founding love, despite all their problems...

When they returned to the palace they knew something was wrong at once, the air was different, the smells were corrupt with anger and fear. But this was zoomed out as soon as they were surrounded by the whole group of Fey'ris, even under normal circumstances that was not a good sign.
They didn't say a word for a few seconds before they dropped a letter, made out of the same paper as the wedding invitation Marina and Tiberius send. With shaking hands Viola opened it and was greeted by a photo of her and Amara happy cuddling with each other.

" to the soon to be married-couple:
I like to announce that your marriage will be hold in 7 days from now on, you are invited to hold it in the Qeueendom Of Siluvanede as the personal guests of House Dlardrageth.
You are not required to bring gifts as your wedding is all the gift I needed.
I eagerly awaiting your reply as soon as possible.
with all the love and passion...
Her Royal Majesty. Coronel Sarya Ap Dlardrageth

PS: I don't accept a no."

Viola gulped loudly, seeing the waiting expressions on all faces.
" We don't have a choice do we ? Oh well I hoped it could be done in the Kingdom but there's nothing that hold me. Also if needed I would marry you everywhere so yes I think we will accepting that or do you mind it my love ?" She know that Amara would have thousand reasons to complain but there was no way to ignore this without a heavy fight in family and international relations...

[The Elven Imperium]

"Well we've been isolationists 'till about a hundred years ago. So we drove off anyone who tried to come in and killed them if they persisted", Isadore replied.

Vonika nodded. "So what prompted the change? You people seem a pleasent sort according to Princess Jaiana. "

[The Elven Imperium]

Ruby turned to him. "Well, some Elves live in Nuridia, and they're very peaceable and intelligent beings. The only Elves I've known well until today are my friend Niamh and Lord Lars."

Jaren nodded to Ruby's words. "Oh are the Elves in your nation like ours or are they different?"

[Haktiva]

Vonika nodded. "So what prompted the change? You people seem a pleasent sort according to Princess Jaiana. "

"A review into the Old Man's Ideals. Some philosophical writings from around two hundred years ago that were put into practice", Isadore replied.

[Nuridia]

"I believe everyone is different in some way. Most Elves in Nuridia are merchants or run businesses." "I haven't been in this great nation long enough to know what Elves here are truly like, but they are very kind and have magical talent from what I've seen."

[McNernia]

The King after the ceremony kissed his own wife. Lord Attleham approached her. "Your Majesty I have argued in the House of Lords for Princess Amanda to be Queen, some are against it."

The queen turned to Andrew. "People are in opposition to Amanda as heir?"

Attleham nodded when the KIng looked at him. "Several lords...Parliament is a strange thing."

[Brotherhood Steel the 2nd]

Anala brought out some more coffee for Francis. As she put it down, she tried to spy on the reports. "Anything good my love?"

Receiving the coffee from Anala, Francis responded back to her comment about the reports he was reading about. "Just some statistical reports on the troops Falylin brought back from Kuwat in the retreat. He managed to save nearly one hundred thousand Kuwat Royal Guards and civilians when Maximilian's forces broke through his lines, but in the process we lost the last resistance nation in the continent. Losing Kuwat is going to hurt our chances in this war my love; as it will allow Maximilian to concentrate his forces throughout the Imperium instead of the majority of them being occupied in another war." As Francis took a moment to relax, his hands went instinctively to the liquor bottle to pour himself a glass to calm his nerves of the situation...........

[Jothastein]

Jarwyn smiled. "It quite a lovely thing....it's magical....like you." Jarwyn caught himself. He didn't mean to blurt those words out. He was just trying to explain Elven romance and he got lost in the moment. Jarwyn hope Sariah wouldn't be upset with his words.

Sariah sighed. "Jarwyn, I appreciate the compliment, but..." She glanced at Sarisa for a moment before looking back to Jarwyn. "If you are harboring any sort of romantic interest in me, I would strongly advise against it. From what I understand of Sarisa's... my custodian's time with your people, my race takes far longer to form emotional attachments than yours does. Anything you may feel towards me would remain unrequited for a long time. And this is disregarding differences in culture, diet, genetics..."
