THE WEDDING OF BRIGHTSTAR AND JIMREY
Held At:
Mercinaen Cathedral.
You are surprised to find the Cathedral is without a roof, relying on the fortitude of the eternal sky for protection against the destructive forces of nature. A pool formed entirely by rain drops provides a backdrop for the ceremonies, a small raised knoll inside the cathedral for the couple awaiting bonding. Around you, are baskets filled with petals used by the dancers, and behind the pool seats rise above you for the choir and the bards to perform. Truly a majestic creation, the cathedral has stood firm against the perils of time, pre-dating even the Divine War.

Brightstar gives an ancient tree a compassionate hug.

A warm breeze sends a confetti of pink cherry blossom towards you.
Brightstar says, "Ooooh".
Honeybear opens her eyes wide and says, "Wow!".
Songbirds flutter about you, dotting the multi-coloured sky with twittering song.
Brightstar says, "Birdies!".
Viresse waves her tissue.
The winds of Pericles, god of the sky rustle the trees, their very leaves echoing calls of well-being and life to Brightstar and Ranger Jimrey of Greenwood.
Jimrey smiles openly.
Viresse says, "Oooohhh".
A great yellow light arcs across the sky, before exploding in a plethora of wondrous colour.
Brightstar says, "Fancy huh?".
The sky bears an unparalleled vision; the Sun and the Moon together as two concentrics, an everlasting image of unity.
Circles of gemstones, colourful and vibrant, surround the Sun and Moon in the sky, perfecting the image.
Fireflies dance intricate rituals about you, as Mercinae is lit by the glow of celebration and happiness.
Brightstar says, "Welcome all!".
Brightstar giggles happily.
The dazzling light of a thousand lamps, crowning Mercinae in the glory of mankind, give all about you an aura of divine splendour.
The singing of many choirs reach your ears, joyous songs of thanksgiving and friendship.
The choirs raise their voices to a crescendo, as Brightstar is serenaded with ballads of well-wishes.
Shyona says, "Awwwwww!" sympathetically.
The songs continue, as Ranger Jimrey of Greenwood's name is chorused by the exuberant people.
Brightstar says, "Yay Jimrey!".
Brightstar giggles happily.
Atop the cathedral, hundreds of bells toll merrily as Mercinae celebrates the union of Brightstar and Ranger Jimrey of Greenwood.
The Oceans are lit, sunbeams and moonbeams intertwined and reflected in joyous hues of multifarious illumination from the Southern Seas.
As the cathedral falls dark, a lonely shaft of light falls on Brightstar and Ranger Jimrey of Greenwood locked in embrace, a perfect image of unity and bonding.
Kerowyn says, "No kissing before the ceremony is over!".
Brightstar giggles happily.
Inside the cathedral, the sound of bells tolling whirl about you, engulfing you in sound.
Genesis, the god of time raises his hands, and within the cathedral, bright lights spark your surroundings into life.
Brightstar beams broadly.
Suddenly a choir bursts into song, from the rear of the room, hundreds of people lit instantly by a tri-coloured shaft of light.
The Mercinae dancers twirl about you, scattering rose petals on the onlooking crowds.
Ranger Jimrey of Greenwood and Brightstar are showered in petals from the dancers.
The bards strum their melodious music, lyres and flutes audible against the voices of the choir.
The North Wind which whistles through the belfry moans its well-wishes to Brightstar and Ranger Jimrey of Greenwood.
A hush spread over the cathedral as the instrumentalists cease their playing.
Brightstar's face has just gone a pretty shade of pink.
Saboteur cheers wildly!
The choir is silent, and the dancers arrest their movement and take their seats at the side of the ceremony.
Genesis, the god of time raises his hand, revealing with a flash the two amulets of betrothal.
Hanging from the fist of the God of Time, Brightstar's amulet glows with the jewel of sun-stone.
Saboteur says, "You better take good care of her Jimrey or I object!".
Jimrey utters a deep, rumbling laugh.
Honeybear nods emphatically.
Safovine thumps Saboteur on the head with his palm.
Also held by the God of Time, Ranger Jimrey of Greenwood's amulet glows with the luminescence of a star-sapphire.
Even the winds are silent as the ceremony reaches the apex of importance; the bonding of two souls.
Both Brightstar and Ranger Jimrey of Greenwood face the great pool, expressions of joy replaced by serious contemplation.
The pool shimmers once, a stray shaft of light spearing upwards, spreading in mid-air like a translucent oak.
About you the cathedral lights are dimmed, as everybody awaits the final ceremony.
A triangle of soft light bathes the blissful couple.
Viresse lets a pair of glittering tear-drops trickle down her fair cheeks.
The triangle stretches to form a circle, which expands to envelop the whole cathedral.
As the cathedral falls dark, a lonely shaft of light falls on Brightstar and Ranger Jimrey of Greenwood locked in embrace, a perfect image of unity and bonding.
Elmak says, "Welcome all.".
Elmak says, "We are here today to witness the union of Brightstar and Jimrey".
Kerowyn skips about gleefully.
Elmak says, "A happy couple, to be weeded in holy matrimony.".
Brightstar says, "I have loved Jimrey as a forest brother, then as a dear friend, and now as my love.".
Brightstar says, "I pledge my troth to Jimrey , before these people and will be a faithful wife and helpmate forever.".
Brightstar nudges Ranger Jimrey suggestively.
Jimrey nods emphatically.
Brightstar says, "Okay, he says ditto".
Elmak chuckles long and heartily.
Ewelyn says, "A bola wedding!".
Elmak says, "Well then!".
Brightstar says, "Except he won't be a faithful wife.".
Brightstar says, "I'll do that".
Brightstar says, "He can be the faithful husabnd, right?".

Lukien lets out a choked sniffle, eyes welling with tears.
Elmak says, "You may now kiss the bride!".
Honeybear rubs her hands together with glee.
Jimrey gives Brightstar a passionate kiss.
Brightstar has just put on a white golden ring.
Ewelyn says, "All of us?".
Brightstar gives Ranger Jimrey a passionate kiss.
Elmak says, "By the power vested in me by my Lord Maedhros Allendil, I do declare you, Brightstar, and you, Jimrey, happily weeded for now and forevermore.".
By the grace of A great armoured bear, let it be known that on this day, Ranger Jimrey of Greenwood was bound in eternal matrimony to Animist Brightstar Bunny-Eared Healer.
Kerowyn says, "Now time for cake?".
Eli utters a deep, rumbling laugh.
