I’d thought Líann and I would have at least a few days to enjoy the anticipation of our upcoming wedding, but by the next afternoon, word of it had spread like wildfire throughout the entire Imperial District. Everywhere we went, it was all people wanted to talk about with us, and I counted myself lucky to have broken the news to our Tári that morning. I didn’t even want to consider Venna’s wrath, had she learned of it from anyone else.

Despite the excitement, Talína was true to her word and didn’t come to me with a single detail. Over the intervening weeks, she handled everything for us, even rebuffing both Líann and Thelmé’s attempts to ‘aid’ her. Both were quite perturbed to be shut out of the planning so completely, but I only shrugged my shoulders when they complained to me—I’d handed over the entire affair to Lína, I explained, it was hers to manage however she saw fit.

The wedding wasn’t the only planning I wound up locked out of, however. In light of the upcoming event, Evans and my Ministers saw to the oversight of everything within the Empire, from the preparations for the war to even the most minor of details; virtually relieving both Líann and me of all our duties for a time. Considering the fact that we’d be marching off to invade the Dark Lands almost immediately after our wedding, they considered the time as a sort of honeymoon for us, and once they’d explained their reasoning to me, I resented it a great deal less.

With so much free time on our hands, Líann and I toured the valley together most days. Even though the reprieve from my responsibilities was only temporary, I thoroughly enjoyed the opportunity to simply wander among my people again. Reacquainting myself with many of those I hadn’t seen in so long and seeing how far they’d come from our humble beginnings served as a reminder of all that we’d accomplished together.

Our rounds often took us past my secluded training spot, and we’d frequently stop to practice our talents when we did. Although we sparred at times and Líann was able to wield not only her Short Sword of Proficiency but also the Defender’s Spike I’d finally given her, most of our time was spent in ranged combat.

Not only had Líann become quite deadly with the Bow of Impact, but her repertoire of Spells had also grown. After I’d given Eryn the Inferno Garb, she’d shown her appreciation by teaching Líann a Spell called Firespray. When cast, the magic sent forth a fan-shaped blaze of flames from her fingertips, immolating anything caught within its burning flames. Not to be outdone, Aaden had also imparted her with some magic, teaching Líann the Lore skill as well. Although it was not useful in combat, it was still a very good talent for her to have, and we both appreciated his gesture.

In spite of my advisors’ best attempt to keep me out of things, I
