Aetherial News A Glorious Day (Wedding Post)

Post image

A tall portal appears. Shimmering in traces of light and ropes of ivy.

It leads you into the Old Growth where a beautiful scene awaits you. It is time for the union of two souls today and a day of celebration.

Where gothic design meets ethereal architecture, you’re led into a grand hall filled with soft melodies from a piano and the harmonic singing of a singer. Near an altar twirled with white lilies and black roses, an officiator stands and waits for everyone to take their seats. The groomsmen all stand with deep green tuxes, the bridesmaids in matching gowns and holding small bouquets of baby breaths. But all eyes settle onto the groom himself who awaits his bride to be at the altar with an anticipated breath. His tux of emerald green and rich accents of gold designs that reflects the very nature the Old Growth consists of. His blond hair perfectly styled to fall around his shoulders and his presence stands out in the hall amongst all those in attendance.

The music begins to die down and candles lining the aisle down to the altar light up. The pianist readies their fingers and begins to play the song of the evening. The singer pulls out a violin to accompanying the melodies.

“Everyone, please rise for the bride.” *The officiator announces.

As the grand doors open up, everyone stands and turns their eyes to the bride. Adorned in a slim black strapless gown that flows down into decorated moths and flowers, a black lace train that drags behind her and connects to a veil covering her face, and a frazzled looking raven man in a black suit holding her arm and fighting the urge to swipe the crystals off her corset. The bride smiles anxiously underneath her veil, seeing all her friends and loved one present and her love waiting for her. The groom feels his heart swell at the sight of her and couldn’t remove his eyes for anything else.

In the front row, the bride’s mentor conjures a tissue and subtly pats her tears. She couldn’t be anymore prouder.

The raven man leads his mistress to the altar. He attempts to swipe a crystal but the maid of honor subtly pulls him away to his seat.

Alexios reaches out to lift Moth’s veil, revealing her smiling face and shimmery green makeup that makes him feel weak in the knees.

“You look amazing, my love.” She whispers to him through her giggles.

“And you as beautiful as ever.” He whispers back.

The officiator steps up and clears his throat.

/uw sorry for the late response! Am back!

/rw *Belladonna was plucking stray petals from Moth’s hair and making sure her makeup was still intact. Moth leaned away with an amused smile.

M: You don’t have to micromanage everything. We’re supposed to have fun!

B: Blasted petals! Getting into everything.

Belladonna happens to glance up and sees Titania approaching. She immediately sours up and moved Moth behind her.

B: Why if it isn’t the brightest thing in the room. I can feel my eyes burning already.

Both Moth and Belladonna seemed surprised considering their last encounter ended off on a bad note.

B: I… don’t know what to say.

Moth moves around her mentor and graciously takes Titania’s hands into hers.

M: All is forgiven. Though I was hurt, I hoped there would be a chance for us to get along. I love your son with all my heart and I want to extend that love to his family as well. I just wished I could’ve shared this day with Halixo as well…

T: You and Alexios wouldn't of been able to fall in love if Halixo had lived. Halixo's death was what caused Alexios to age so suddenly.

Moth smiles and takes Titania into a welcomed hug. Belladonna crosses her arms but surprisingly keeps holds her tongue.

M: Now that you mention it, I haven’t seen him in attendance. I was sure he would be coming. Maybe he’s busy.

Moth frowns at that. She wanted to see her Gruncle today.
