[Wedding Glade]

You are in a large glade, ringed by tall and majestic oaks. At its farther end, two of these venerable trees stand entwined as a living symbol of two souls bonded in matrimony. With the setting of the sun, the oaks almost look like lovers hugging, renewing their special bond. A small rosewood altar is set before the large oak trees, and an arch of modwir pine and spruce boughs leads to a shady path. You also see the Vlandris disk, the Kemar disk, a wedding tent, a large moss covered gate and a doorman.

I see these both behind her eyes. 
My soul is comforted by the storm 
and stress
	  ahead of us,"

to the most virtuous man in all the lands.

	  who has tempered 
all his virtues to the point of perfection."

there is pride.

	  meat of Skytriff, 
we would all be gods and goddesses, I think. "

	  tells me 
that if I come as far as I can, 
he will meet me there."

	  in this world 
stands here beside me now.

	of the magic of this moment, 
never to be recreated. "

and nothing
	  less. I wonder...."

	  dreamt?"

I plucked a strange
	  and beautiful flower?"
