Published at 2nd of May 2019 10:18:31 AM Chapter 3

The castle's courtyard had been entirely redecorated for the wedding ceremony . The ground was covered in a cloth the color of snow . Someone had also hung silver strips of cloth from tree to tree all over the courtyard . There was also a table set up with all kinds of food set to the side . The chairs were all set neatly in rows and there was a dais set up where the ceremony was to take place .

When Zylvia arrived on the scene she froze for a moment . She was suddenly feeling very nervous . She had never really thought she would ever get married, so she was not really mentally prepared for it .

It felt surreal to her to step unto the dais with every eye upon her . Trying to distract and calm herself down she focused on the man she was about to marry .

She found herself noticing that Kaldrek was taller than her . Her head only came up to his nose, something she had never really noticed before . She also noticed that he didn't look nervous at all . Instead, he just had that signature soft smile of his on his lips . She wished she could act so nonchalant about this . Her eyes then went to his messy hair and she wondered if he had even tried to fix it .

King Jayesh interrupted her thoughts by holding out a crimson ribbon towards them and clearing his throat . Taking it, she turned to her groom and looped one end of it around his right wrist and tied it, "Fate's red cord forever there-"

Kaldrek wrapped it around her left wrist . "Never broken, always strong-"

She wrapped it around his left wrist, taking a deep breath in order to keep her voice from shaking, "Till dying breath and end of days-

He tied it around her right wrist, "Tying me to you . "

Kaldrek then put a ring on her finger as she did the same to him . After they did this the king handed them a silver cup with a long handle . Taking it from him, Kaldrek drank from it and then handed it to his bride to do the same . As she drank the colorless liquid that was at first sweet then bitter than sweet again, she felt a warmth spread throughout her body as well as the ribbon on her wrists tightening . She handed the cup back to the king, and then looked down at the ribbon .

No matter how many weddings she went to Zylvia always found it entrancing to watch the ribbon shimmer and then vanish away . She noticed that it left behind a sensation as if it was still there on her wrists .

She glanced up at Kaldrek, wondering what was going on in his head . With the ceremony completed, they were now wed .
