black hair, violet eyes, and fair skin. She is wearing a
gold wedding band crafted into two clasped hands, a violet
silk bodice delicately embroidered with tiny pearl acantha leaves
and sheer sleeves that fall softly off the shoulders, a flowing deep
violetdiaphanous silk skirt shimmering with a myriad of tiny pearls,
a tiny pearl ring with finely-tooled golden chains extending
upwards to clasp a bracelet inlaid with tiny pearl acantha
leaves, a delicate gold circlet inlaid with tiny intertwining
pearl acantha leaves, a delicate golden beaded chain, and

cunningly crafted into a newborn butterfly unfurling its
wings.
Acatia says,
"Just as the earth began with the first golden dawn, each man and woman begins
their adventures bedazzled by the splendors of Elanthia's cities."
"Today, we mark a new beginning--the pairing of this couple in permanent
union that they may brave these lands together."
"Let us begin this joyous night with song, for it is said
that those things which endure the longest are those which have been sung
into existence."

Runeweilder"

Faub strums one final soft chord then allows his theorbo
to fall silent.
Faub says, "I was going to sing but I have decided to recite
a poem instead"
Faub recites:
"Into the realm of chaotic thought
Where emotion is gone, not even sought
A moment of truth is found within
"Without Love --- to what end?""
"The healer who heals so others might live
Of themselves they offer but why do they give
Or the warrior who braves the toughest foe
Tho with one false step its death they know"
"The wanderer who ranges both far and near
Seeking the wooded ways to become clear
Oh magic great, both vague and known
By sorcery and wizardry this is well shown"
"The raiser with an most noble goal
Reuniting the split of body and soul
And the picker of traps and locks is bound
By that moment of truth we have all found"
Faub recites:
"Love"
"Of life - of death - of joy - of hate
Even of things we do not contemplate
That moment of truth is found within
"Without Love --- to what end?""
"As we share this day with Brookhaven and Tellistto
May their love continue to forever grow
A beacon of -Truth- the moment is known
Through this life both together not apart or alone"
Acatia says, "Thank you, Lord Faub."
Faub beams!
Acatia says, "Let us now light the candle of Yellow, the
candle of Hope."

with arms outstretched towards the sun.
Acatia says,
"After we have chosen our paths and begun the long journey down them, we
begin to dream."
"We may hope to master the most arcane knowledge, open the most delicate
of locks, rescue those on the verge of decay, or vanquish the most unholy
of foes."
A small giggling child darts among the wedding guests.
Acatia says,
"However, for many of us, our most heartfelt hope is not fame or fortune,
but is to find the perfect counterpart to our soul."
"Brookhaven and Tellistto have discovered each other and decided to breathe
this air together for the rest of their days."
"From this day onward, let his hope be her dream and her hope be his."
Acatia gestures and utters a phrase of magic.
Acatia gestures. A sphere of pure white light appears above
you. A wispy tendril of pure magic reaches out to encircle Acatia and those
nearby.
Acatia says, "Let us now light the candle of Green, the candle
of Dedication."
Acatia smiles as she lights a green candle etched with the
image of a farmer hoeing an endless field of turnips.
Acatia says,
"All of our hopes only come to pass through dedication and hard work."
"Most of us, including the bride and groom, ventured out into this world
for the first time only to be sent back to the farm and reborn later."
"Even there, it takes much nurture and toil to insure a bountiful harvest."
"After many seasons of labor and endless devotion to their studies, the families
Perjurron and Suffolk were rightfully entered into the Book of Legends."
"May they now begin a life of focus and dedication to each
other."

"Even the most careful planning cannot overcome the Hand of Chance. Things
sometimes happen which can drive all but the hardiest of souls to despair."
"Both of these people have undergone many times of sadness yet have persevered
and survived."
Brookhaven leans toward her groom and seems to whisper something
in his ear.
Tellistto looks into his bride to be's eyes, winking playfully
at her, he grabs her hand and brings it to his lips kissing her fingers softly.

and the perseverence to overcome all new pitfalls be granted now."

thrusting his sword into the throat of a massive pyrothag.
Acatia says,
"Tellistto Perjurron is one of my oldest friends in Elanthia."
"We have hunted with each other, rescued one another, and
cried on each others shoulder."
"He is the most loyal of men and is always ready to lend his skills to those
in need. He has all of the qualities a man should possess and then some."

the cavern, indicating a stream of some kind is near.
Tellistto recites:
"You can sit safe at North Gate
Or go out and tempt your fate
You can travel a mile to make a change
Or do the same with one radiant smile"
"You can sit and tell our children a story
Or stand beside me in battles glory
It matters not to me, for together we will be
One heart, one dream, one soul"

And my promise to share my life with you
And stay with me forever
In this shining band of gold"

sheltering children in her skirts as she battles a screaming banshee.

kindhearted of women. Her touch eases the deadliest of wounds and her words
revive the heaviest heart."
You hear the sound of tiny bells ringing, their music charming
you.
