Crimson Overlord

And then the Mothers of the Bridegroom and the Bride stepped on the stage, who in Emea's case was her friend Nia while Orpheus was an old lady who saw him grow up, she was like the mother he never had.

Blonde, oily hair hangs over a skinny, charming face. Expressive gray eyes, set deep within their sockets, watch attentively over the child she has grown affectionate of for so long.

Several moles are spread elegantly across her forehead and leave a stinging memory of her unfortunate upbringing.

This is the face of Sasha Lamm. She stands alluringly among others, despite her subtle frame.

Sasha approached the bride first, taking out a beautiful bracelet of the highest quality with a Moonstone, this Moonstone with a princess cut and the size of a fist is in premium condition. These gems are in very high demand, but they're a fairly rare gemstone species.

It's said these gems contain enlarging properties which make for a great offensive weapon enhancement.

Sasha lovingly put it on her left wrist. After she did that, she planted a gentle kiss on her forehead, before giving way to her best friend acting as her aunt to approach Orpheus.

Nia too took out a Bracelet, but unlike Sasha's bracelet, this one was completely made out of platinum in a woven design with an infinity crest. It was something a man could wear without it seeming too flashy. She then planted a kiss on his head, and then the two women presented their children with the bands for their intended that bore their names.

Under the applause of everyone, the ring ceremony was performed, and the Promise was made. It was now time for the wedding ceremony.

Both of them helped bind the left hand of Orpheus with Emea's right hand with a red thread, and then on the platform, a large scroll made out of a high-level hood was uncovered.

Orpheus placed his right hand into the dish filled with red ink, and then he marked his handprint on the scroll. Emea followed his lead and marked her left handprint on the Scroll, with her thumb touching his. The two of them then signed their names with black ink inside their respective handprints.

After it was done, the witnesses stepped on the stage to sign their names on the scroll and the official documents.

The master of the ceremony then asked the two of them to close their eyes and recite their wedding vows in their hearts.

Orpheus and Emea squeezed each other's hands as they recited the vows they had taken on the night they married each other, and after they opened their eyes, they turned to each other and smiled brightly.

"I am yours and you are mine for infinity." They said in unison before Orpheus leaned in and kissed her.

The moment their lips touched, they felt a tremor in their heart, and their minds went blank. It was simply surreal, and both had never felt something like this in their lives.

'Show me those open and loving eyes, for they are the door to my soul. Touch me with those gentle hands and I am made anew, not as clay, but as if my body were reborn in its most perfect form. And so, in this love there is a deep gratitude, a sense that what is given is sacred and transient, passing in time into the eternal cycles of living. Love is sweet, yet more like fresh fruit than candy or confectionery. Love is colorful, yet more as summer blooms than the neon lights of frenetic city streets. Love is steady and forgiving, yet more as the wise mother than the servant in chains. Love hears and speaks with the wisdom of the heart, with a sense of the soul of the other. In love we have our "forever home" and it gives us the ability to fly so freely, joyfully returning when each heart calls for the other's touch. She knew she had found her true love and this will never change for infinity.' Emea had this thought as she tasted so sweet and he instinctively kept kissing her, and she just let the sweet feeling in her heart wash over all her senses.

When they finally stopped and separated, they found the crowd happily cheering for them and the fireworks lighting up the sky that was cast with dark clouds, and the newly wedded together bowed to everyone to thank them for their blessings.

The two women then unwound the tread that bound their hands, and the same thread was then used to bind the scroll that was the proof of their union, which was carefully stored inside a wooden chest.

To finish the ceremony, the husband and wife both drank fresh goat's milk from the same cup, and helped each other eat a piece of seasonal fruit, which was a Strawberry in their case.

After the ceremony ended, Orpheus held Emea's hand, and walked down the aisle under the applause of the guests and the chants of the bride's convoy, out of the Garden, where a car was waiting for them to take them to their new house.

From the outside, this house looks grandiose. It has been built with white stones and has mahogany wooden decorations. Tall, squared windows let in plenty of light and have been added to the house in a very symmetric way.

The house is equipped with a modern kitchen and two bathrooms, it also has a fairly small living room, two bedrooms, a spacious dining room, an office, and a large basement.

The building is shaped like a circle. The house is fully surrounded by a garden path.

The second floor is smaller than the first, which allowed for a roof garden on one side of the house. This floor follows the same style as the floor below.

The roof is high and slanted to one side and is covered with flat roof tiles. One large chimney pokes out the center of the roof. Several small windows let in just enough light to the rooms below the roof.

The house itself is surrounded by paved ground, with various party spots, like a fancy barbeque and a firepit.
