RYNAR
Two weeks ago, this wasnât how Rynar would have pictured his Saturday.
He was getting married.
Married.
In front of a human priest and the esteemed Zamolxy, one of the most respected Deruzian monks. He had insisted on blessing the union, the first official human-Deruzian one. Rynar hadnât quite believed his super-hearing when heâd found out Zamolxy had just levitated through the portal two days ago, staff in one hand, smoking pipe in the other.
Monks were thought to bring peace and comfort on Deruzia. But Zamolxy being here meant trouble. His ancient, all-knowing eyes, so old they had almost gone white, would see through the plan he and Alissia had come up with.
Zamolxy would sense the lie.
But when Zamolxy insisted on officiating your union, you bowed and gave him the customary golden coin.
While Rynar had decided to blend human and Deruzians traditions for his clothing, Zamolxy had gone full Deruzian. Heâd even dressed in the special crimson ceremonial robes, its golden symbols glimmering in the light Earthâs star emitted. His white eyes were set on Alissia.
Observing.
Rynar clenched his jaw and averted his gaze to the crowd waiting for the ceremony.
Deryg was still looking at him strangely, as if he couldnât quite believe heâd polished his horns for Alissia walked down the aisle, statuesque in the white dress that hugged her curves just right, with the jewels Rynar had given her around her neck. His twin hearts stuttered.
She was gorgeous and proud as she walked down the aisle, her brother right beside her. The piece of cloth sheâd called a veil covered her face. But even through the embroidered fabric, Rynar could see her eyes.
And he couldn't stop staring.
Neither could she.
As soon as their gazes met, Alissia froze midstep. Rynar seemed to have forgotten his lungs liked air.
The rest of the garden faded away into blurry images and small echoes as they shared this moment.
They seemed to be having the same thought, mirrored between them.
Are we really doing this?
Strangely, the moment wasnât marred with dread or bad omens. The feeling resembled excitement. As if Rynar couldnât quite believe he was marrying her.
Sadly, the spell was broken by Zamolxyâs raspy voice.
âThe union can proceed,â he boomed, breaking the stillness. Rynar released a sigh of relief. Zamolxy hadnât sensed the lie. Curious.
The monk turned to the human priest. âShall we start? Do we need to sacrifice the la-mb before or after?â
The priest blinked one too many times. âThatâsâ¦thatâs not how we do things. Anymore.â
âPity,â Zamolxy said. âOur ancestors enjoyed a good battle against the beasts that roamed the plains.â
âWell, a lamb isnât a beast. Itâs small and doesnât have any teeth or claws. Itâs a baby of its species.â
Zamolxyâs eyes hardened. âWhat triumph is there in slaying a youngling that cannot defend itself?â
The priestâs mouth opened and closed. âNone. Which is why we donât do it anymore.â
Rynar shared a smile with Alissia, as she began to walk toward him again. Everything in this wedding was out of the ordinary.
The ceremony went on, a soft lullaby of a song floating in the background.
