My name is now Lauriana Kanan-Venomblade. My family would not take the trip (of course they don’t approve of me marrying a vagabond rogue), but my Guardian family was there and it was just as I dreamed it. I had someone scribe the ceremony for me so that when Flue and I are apart I can read it and take comfort and feel close to him until his travels bring him back to me.
Leonne says, 'Ok, lets get this a bit organized. Guests of the bride and groom, would you please stand behind me and form a semicircle'
Leonne says, 'Good friends, we come here today to this tower to witness the joyous celebration of the love between Flue Venomblade and Lauriana Kanan, supporting them in their decision to be joined as one in the sight of this company and the gods of our world.'
Flue and Lauriana, you are aware of the reality of the vows you are about to speak to one another; of the responsibility that comes when a partnership is created.'
Leonne says, 'If there is any reason within your hearts that this ceremony should not continue at this time, I charge you to voice it now'
marriage is based on honesty and trust, and only with those things can you successfully create a partnership. Please hold up your rings before the gods and your guests.'
Leonne says, 'Air for hopes and dreams, fire for the spark of love, water for harmony and healing; and earth for strength.
Lauriana, you wish to speak your vows to Flue? Please do so'
Lauriana says, 'Flue, we come here today to join our lives together, before our family, our separate paths become one.
In their presence I pledge to be true to you, to respect you, and to grow with you.
Love has given us wings and our journey begins today wherever the wind may carry us, I will stay by your side always.
Time may pass, fortune may smile, trials may come, but no matter what we encounter together, I vow that this love will be my only love.
Distance may test us sometimes and times may try us but if we look to each other first we will always see a friend.
I will make my home in your heart from this day forward and I offer my heart to you
May our days be long and may they be seasoned with love, understanding and respect.
Leonne says, "Flue, you wish to speak your vows to Lauriana? Please do so'
Flue says, 'Lauriana, the flower of Felwithe, and the beauty of Tunare does not compare to the fairness of your face.
Long time past, ye gave me a flower, and I have kept it close to my heart that I might always remember the love we have shared.
Today we confirm that love, and form a more solid future together.
In times past, my blades have fought for thee, and have succeeded and sometimes failed. But I vow that I shall continue to fight by your side, and give my live to protect thee.
As we continue our paths in Norrath and beyond, my love for you shall never waver. I vow to be true to the love we share, true to the commitments we make, past, present and future, and above all to continue to strive to fight evil with thee by my side.
My past has been spotted with misdeeds, and yet I have found forgiveness in thy arms. From hence forth, I shan't waver from the path you have sent me to, and by Tunare's grace, we shall endure forever.
Till Norrath fails, and Luclin no longer stands in the sky. Til the planes themselves crumble and all life fails, I shall love thee, and no other, I shall be devout to thee, and no other, I shall protect thee with the very essence of my being, and I shall do so, constantly humbled and honored that ye have chosen me as your love.
This is my solemn vow'
Leonne says, The circle is a perfect figure, without beginning, without end, with no area of weakness. It is a symbol of the Cycle of life, of birth, death, and rebirth. This shall serve as a physical reminder of your vow, and that all things begin and end and begin again, as the gods so decree. These rings shall serve to remind you that life goes on, that these moments pass. When you are engulfed in anger or in sadness, look to your hand, and remember that the wheel turns forever onward, and it is love that turns the wheel.
Please, take this moment to exchange your rings.'
Flue says, 'My dearest Lauriana, I give thee this ring as a token of my love for thee
I give thee this necklace, Iron Amulet of Unseen Horrors, that it may keep comfort you from the unseen and most importantly, I give thee this flower, Twilight Orchid, to give ye one to comfort you as, the Rose of Firiona, you gave me has comforted me.'
Lauriana says, My darling Flue, I give you this ring as a token of my affection and also these presents to keep you safe.'
Leonne says, May the winds of communication blow ever between you; may the first of love sustain you; may the waters of life heal and soothe you; and may the strength of the land bind and steady you throughout your time together.
You have witnessed the promises made by Flue and Lauriana, one to another, and the exchange of the symbols of their union. They are now connected to experience together whatever life may bring them.
Groom, you may now kiss your bride'
Guests, please join us in celebration of this union. There are drinks and cake to be handed out.'
Hafluv says, 'Please congratulate the newly married couple FLUE and LAURIANA.'
