Ranam chuckles...
Lirryn snickers quietly at Drim's antics.
Annwfn offers Drim a fingerful of frosting? "It's really good!"
Driminar says "Ruined..only a small piece.."
Jander wipes the bit of frosting off Annwfn's nose.
Tarin smiles at Drim. "Afterwards..."
Driminar smiles at annwfn and gladly accepts the frosting.
You are not sure if it is Driminar's boyish good looks and charm that draw you to him, but the first thing you notice when you look at Drim is his eternal smile. Then your eyes are drawn to his...sure, they sparkle with laughter, but they are also two different colors--the right is ocean blue, the left tree-bark brown. He is wearing the new spring collection from Sea Cove Hold...he is always such a fashion statement. :) His lagoon-blue tunic is worn loosely so as not to hinder his cat-like reflexes. You wonder what on Pern he is always smiling about.
Candre chuckles at the frosting antics....
Snog grins at Driminar.
Tarin smiles at everyone, feeling slightly self-conscious at standing in front of everyone.
Nuno chuckles too, in his classic starsmith laugh.
Kzar sets down Ekko gently.
Caoilfionn lets the noise of the populace...the whispers and sibilant sounds, catch her attention a moment. SHe passes her eyes over the crowd, expertly noting who is speaking with who, their facial expressions as they do so, and then returns to looking towards, and slightly above, the entrance to the courtyard.

phoenix makes her way over from the courtyard..
phoenix blushes slightly, smiling..
Andra stands near Tariana.

Jhiana sighs softly.
Tarin takes a deep breath and stands stright up, his eyes not moving from Dyane.
Candre smiles.
kimball smiles at Jhiana
A fairly tall young man of 24 Turns, Geraint could qualify as 'cute'. Or 'droolable', if you ask his best friend, Miriel. His eyes, blue and laughing, take in the scene around him. He has fairly short dark blond hair, but it's longer in the back, going into small curls at the nape of his neck. For some reason or other, he's usually grinning. No matter where he is, a Southern Boll knot rests on his shoulder, letting you know that he is the brother to Lady Dyane of Boll (older brother, see), as well as being a brother to S'bar, Candre, and K'ti.
Salin smiles.

(To Tarin)Driminar whispers "dont do it run..Ill create a distraction..you slip away;)"
Billem looks hopefully about for a niche on a bench. A small niche will do--he's skinny.
Tarin's hand flips back and actually smacks Drim in the leg this time.
Geraint pats Dy's hand reassuringly with his free hand, holding his head up.
Annwfn whispers "Doesn't she look happy?"
Essylt beams at her mother!

Tarin's hand reaches for Dyane's and his fingers curl around hers, squeezing.
phoenix sticks her tongue out at Candre while everyone is paying attention to Dy and Tarin ;)
Candre chuckles, as he shakes his ehad at his other sister too.
Caoilfionn smiles at Dyane, then at Tarin, her gray eyes glinting with a small warning of her own, then twinkling at both of those before her. She looks out across the moving masses, now stilled in expectation, and speaks, her voice clear and precise, ringing out above the whispers....
Dyane turns her head, smiling at her brothers Geraint and Candre. She hands her sister K'ti the bouquet of flowers and smiles.
Annwfn smiles, her eyes dancing around to watch _everything_!
Geraint makes a mental note to stick his tongue out at Candre later. :)
Candre smiles at phoenix, becoming very quiet.
Jander watches the wedding, smiling.
Driminar grins
Blaixe hugs Essylt tightly and watches Master Caoilfionn quietly.
Dyane turns back to the front and looks up at Tarin lovingly.
Salin lifts his head to watch, one arm around Betanni's waist, and a huge smile on his face.
Andra watches wistfully from the side.
Caoilfionn says "The respect that a lover gives to another is like unto the respect of holder to Lady. The support a lover gives to another is like unto the tithe of Hold to Weyr. The protection a lover gives to another is like unto that the weyrs extend over all Pern. And also, the richness of a love shared is like unto the richness added life by the Crafts....(more)"
phoenix grins at her son, making a movement to indicate he should pay attention..
Lirryn's eyes dance around taking in every detail of the ceremony
Alec sighs in relief as he realises he isn't late, by some miracle.
Hirri makes her way over from the courtyard..
Kzar whispers to Lirryn, "Exciting, isn't it?"
If you are looking at Hirri you probably can't see much else! Before you is a *very* large woman, standing 6' tall and, as you try to peer around her, quite possibly the same distance across. A gladular problem late in adulthood caused the immense size. (That, and eleven children!) She appears to be in her late 50's; her hair is a steel grey that trails down her back in a long braid. {Her skin is still fair, though the hands are calloused.Laugh lines spring from the corners of her mouth and her green eyes. You can see how she got those lines{, since she always appears to be absolutely *beaming* with joy. In fact, she's usually an extremely happy and loving person, despite the problems her large size causes her. Just ask her for a hug!
Caoilfionn lifts her attention from the couple below her, to gaze at each person mentioned: Holder, Rider, Crafter, her gray eyes acknowledging them each in turn, and intimating at the tapestry of love and life each contributes to Pern...the warp and weft. She smiles slightly and then says, "Today we shall all witness the coming together of Lady and Crafter. Healing and Protection, bound together. Will the Lady Dyane come forward?
Tarin releases Dyane's hand so she can staep forward.
Dyane takes a deep nervous breath and releases Tarin's hand. She steps up onto the platform.
Caoilfionn nods to Dyane, her bearing suddenly regal and solemn.
Kzar picks up Ekko gently.
Dyane nods to Master Caoilfionn and turns so that she is facing Tarin and the guests. "Tarin, I love you with all my heart. For this reason, I ask you to become my husband for all of time." She smiles at him, "Please accept this mark as a token of my love to you."
Annwfn stifles a noise.
Jander looks at Annwfn curiously.
Wotan makes his way over from the courtyard..
Tarin steps forward and takes the mark, glancing at it, then up at Dyane.

Kamilla sniffs a bit as she watches.
Opalade puts her hand in her chin and watches quietly from the back.
Tarin says "Dyane, more than anything, I love you. I will do all that is within my power to make you the happiest woman alive and may you continue to be, as you have said to me before, 'the luckiest woman alive. I love you unconditionally and will be with you always."
Annwfn places her hand tightly over her mouth.
Dyane looks at Tarin and smiles softly.
Kzar shows a bit of softening in his rough exterior at the words, and clutches the ring on his necklace.
Driminar smiles
Arden wipes a tear away from his eye, turns and busies himself with the food table.
Kamilla finally takes out a piece of cloth and dab her eyes
phoenix turns from the couple to Nuno, tears in her eyes but a bright smile on her lips..
Jhiana looks distractedly at Annwfn.
Annwfn blinkles?
Blaixe catches Essylt deflty as she faints from happiness.
Midgarn sighs wistfully, extracting a kerchief for someone along the row.
kimball makes a face at his sister, and hopes she does what is right.
Caoilfionn nods once, gray eyes unreadable and grave. She raises them to the populace and intones, "Let the populace here gathered stand witness to their love and this bond here sworn. Let the chosen official witnesses come forward to sign the Records Book."
Driminar steps forward
K'ti steps up to the book to sign, "I will witness it, happily."
Driminar says "Ill witness it.."
Caoilfionn holds forth the pen and steps aside.
Sanxi swallows heavily.
K'ti signs her name on the page then looks up to smile with a nod to Dyane.
Driminar takes the pen and signs the book.
Dyane takes Tarin's hand once more, squeezing it tightly. She smiles at K'ti happily.
Tarin's hand grips Dyane's and he smiles broadly at her.
Tarin grins at Driminar.
K'ti steps back to her place.
Driminar steps back..looking over at the cake..
Eleos smiles at the witnesses that are making his life easier 8)
Kerevin grins over at Eleos.

Dyane grins over at Eleos :)
Caoilfionn regains the pen from Driminar with a brief nod and signs her own name, precise and neat, in the Records book, leaving it open to dry, the pen crossed above the precious wherhide and even paper (!) pages.
Tarin shoots a mock-warning glance at Driminar.
Andra smiles.
Tefka smiles at eleos
Jhiana smiles.

Dyane gets kissed, woo woo ;)
Geraint whistles! Woo!
Arden smiles happily for Dyane and Tarin.
Hirri giggles and wipes tears from her eyes then anounces, in a loud whisper, to no-one in particular, "That's my son up there..."
Kzar smiles, wishing the happy couple the best.
(To Tarin)Driminar whispers "oh great no turning back now.."
Alec makes a face, and queues up to talk to Tarin when he's done kissing and cake-cutting and everything.
Billem nudges Betanni. "When for you, my favorite?"
Ranam grins.
Nuno smiles at his friends Dyane and Tarin.
Jhiana claps.
Tarin swings at Driminar as he lets Dyane go from the kiss.
Driminar looks at the unattended cake..

Hirri adds with another giggle, "And my new daughter!"
Tarin sees Hirri for the first time and waves. "Mom!|"

Salin chuckles.
Tefka smiles
Kerevin chuckles to Dyane and sits back, thinking.
Nuno wraps an arm about his wife... "Hello, love"
Dyane is led to the cake and smiles, "Might as well cut it before people get too hungry!"
Alec turns to look at Hirri, drawing conclusions.
Mykal smiles to the new couple and the masterharper.
Tarin says "Or Drim gets near it!!"
Dyane takes the gleaming knife and cuts a piece of wedding cake.
She feeds her new husband the cake before dabbing a bit of frosting on Tarin's nose.
Kzar looks over to Lirryn. "Want any cake?"
Salin smiles over at Billem, as his fiance seems to be absorbed, "Soon, Billem."

Tarin urgs and grins, swallowing his cake.
Tarin takes the gleaming knife from his wife and cuts a bit of cake as well.
He lovingly feeds Dyane the cake, then chuckles as she gets frosting on her chin.

Tefka walks over to eleos' side
Tefka smiles
Geraint grins.
Kerevin sits up and smiles sheepishly for falling asleep.
Caoilfionn moves backward, deftly slipping through the crowd surging forward to descend with congratulations, and, with a quick glance at the Records book to assure its safety from toppling, takes up her gitar and hangs it about her, coming off the platform to begin to sift through the crowds to extract what she wishes.
Alec wanders over to Hirri and murmurs at her.
Eleos smiles and releases K'ti, sitting and beginning to tune his theorbo, waiting for a lull in the stampede

Billem says "Don't sneak up on me like that..."
Kamilla looks up
Andra looks at the bouquet.
Tariana grins at Dyane, and makes sure she's far away from the 'eligible bachlorettes'.

Dyane heads over to the platform and stand atop it, preparing to throw it, "Anyone who feels lucky, try catching it :)"
Tefka hides
Eleos runs his hands over both sets of strings to test the tone of the Theorbo. By his frown, you would guess there is some tuning to be done.
Annwfn runs up!
Andra smiles.
Midgarn grins. "How could I sneak up in this crowd?"
Driminar smiles at Annwfn..Already on his third piece of cake
Lirryn quietly drifts out of sight, no way is she going to try to catch the bouquet.
Deyaan walks over by Dyane and grins up at her. "Oh, let me try."
Kerevin quickly jots down a message on a bit of wherehide and clips it to the collar of one of his blues who promptly vanishes *between*.
Siboan smiles a little at Oza and watches the flowers.
Andra tries.
K'ti looks excited, "sure, though I don't know who..."
Tarin waves Alec over.
Annwfn waits patiently for the toss.
Driminar grins

Eliene smiles, and watches.

Dyane turns her back on the crowd and swings her arm preparing to throw the bouquet.
Alec says "Tarin, I have a message for you."

Ranam chuckles..."You have reason to be, its one of the happies moments of 2 lives..."
Eleos lets the introduction wind to a final tonic chord, takes a soft breath of air and begins to sing...
K'ti looks a bit confused, losing her int he crowd. She thinks a moment then chooses to go back to the weyr. She can ask later and she's afraid of staining the dress.

I'll never know what brought me here,
Caoilfionn nods to Salin occasionally, listening as her eyes scan the crowd...noting Dyane's request of Eleos, and then watching him begin...then lighting upon Billem. And stopping to meet his look.

It's so hard to understand,
Tarin waves to Drim as he takes half the cake 'for the road'... ;)
Dyane listens to the words of the song and smiles, "How beautiful." She smiles lovingly up at her new husband.
Eleos closes his eyes and brings his head back, going into a fast bridge, opening to look at Tarin as he sings...
Midgarn smiles at Tarin, "We just wanted to wish you two all the happiness you could possibly want. I'm also glad to see that Esslyt's safe again." He ushers Kamilla forward. "This is Kamilla, one of Journeyman Kirana's apprentices, but I'm tutoring her, I guess, today. It's her first wedding."
So I stand alone, a man of stone,
Driminar chuckles...and waves..Congrats you two..
Arden shakes his head. "Myri's beautiful cake..."
Essylt yawns tiredly.
Tarin asks for someone (he doesn't specify) to bring him a chair as his leg is starting to hurt with all this standing.
And the wing will come again,
Tarin grins at Kamilla. "It's a pleasure to meet you, Kamilla! And thank you, Midgarn!"

Dyane smiles at Midgarn and Kamilla, "Pleasure to meet you, Kamilla. And thank you for coming."

Annwfn steps out of the hall into the courtyard.
Alec nods to Tarin again, and wanders back to Fort.
Caoilfionn nods to the journeyman and apprentice and then continues to converse quietly with Salin.
Tarin grins at Geraint. "So what is it, Geraint?"
Kerevin smiles softly and has a short little song that isn't much of a dance tune, but he'll see what he can do after that.
Geraint smiles and hands a warm fur bag to his sister.

Kirana smiles to Master Cao, and turns to Lady Dy and her Lord, and bows low. "Good Evening, Lady, Lord!

Tarin smiles at the bag and thanks Geraint as well. "Thank you!"
Geraint smiles. "A friend of mine at Igen Weyr has a gold 'lizard that recently clutched...and those are the two biggest eggs from the clutch. I hope you both like them."
Kerevin stands and sings out in a soft, clear Tenor II voice.
Salin smiles at Midgarn, and watches as Betanni turns to leave and head back to the Hall, where he'll meet her.
Midgarn also smiles at Caoilfionn, at a pause in her conversation. "It was a wonderful ceremony, Master Cao."
Eleos quiets as Kerevin starts to sing
There's no tomorrow
Kerevin holds the last note out and then lets it fade off, into the sky.
Midgarn grins. "Of course, kiddo. Don't forget to get some refreshments. :)"
Kerevin now starts digging through his memory to find a suitable dancing song.
Dyane applauds loudly, "Kerevin! Beautiful!"
Caoilfionn smiles at Midgarn, "Made all the lovelier by those being joined by it. I simply officiate, Midgarn. It is the mark...and the love...that makes the bond. Perhaps I shall officiate at yours someday."
Kamilla grins and curtsies to journeyman and masters then walk soff to Kirana's Side
Tarin applauds Kerevin and smiles.
Tarin uses his cane to pull himself to his feet and grabs Dyane. "May I have this dance?"
Dyane smiles at Tarin, waiting for Kerevin to find a dancing song.
Kirana greets her stoodent quietly, shouting in her ear to be heard over the hubbub.
Caoilfionn makes sure Kerevin catches her eye and she smiles broadly and inclines her head in approval.

Blaixe smiles and claps for Kerevin
Dyane curtseys, winks at Tarin, "I'd be honored, m'lord."
Tarin says "Clear a dancing area, everyone!!"
Eleos smiles broadly (tm) at Kerevin and will collect paymet from Cao for using his trademark later ;)
Midgarn grins at Master Cao. "I promise, someday Meridel and I will complete our 'eternal engagement'."
phoenix sighs at her husband, recognizing that far-away look in his eyes..wondering what world he is dreaming of, what he does there, while she waits here for him to return to her.. ;)
Arden chuckles.
Kerevin grins and wishes his gather song was done, but it's not, and he has to live with it. He plays a quick, bright chord on his gitar, and jumps into a quick and spritely progression.
Kamilla steps out a bit as if shown't something
Dyane turns to face Tarin, smiling up at him. She waits for the music to start.
Eleos joins Kerevin with his theorbo, playing a bouncy counterpoint
Tarin does his best at a sprightly jig with his leg the way it is.
Kamilla beams
Caoilfionn lets her gaze rest on one couple getting close near an alcove, noting the badges on each and then her eyes flicker over to watch the ever circulating alliances of Lords and Ladies Holder, moving back as she does so, to make room for the dancing.
Dyane leans close to Tarin and whispers, "Don't ... let's just dance slowly." She holds him close and smiles over at Kerevin.
Tarin sighs, chuckles and hugs Dyane, dancing much slower.
Kirana picks up the lute.
Blaixe yawns and moves over to his mother, tapping her on the shoulder and whispering.
Kamilla blinks and says a bit louder than she shoulder. " Me?"
Kirana sees Kerevin's look, and moves to his side, taking out her lute.
phoenix grins and bends over to hear Blaixe..
Arden hrms and watches the harpers from his seat on the edge of the table. He munches idly on a roll.
Siboan watches the dancers.
Tarin /can/, however, manage to sweep Dyane around the dance floor without much trouble! =)
Geraint pouts slightly as Lady Nynaeve seems to have absconded...he did _so_ much want to dance with her again...
Kamilla blinks as she gets pulled with her mentor
Kerevin looks up at Kirana and Eleos, and smiles, "I think we have a request for a slow song." He strums a slow, soft chord progression, filled with joy and beauty.
Ozarin stands off to one side, looks nervous.
Salin backs away from the dance floor, giving room for the dancing, watching from the side.
phoenix ruffles Blaixe hair again, smiling and kissing his cheek lightly..
Eleos smiles and slowly his tempo, his fingers dacing up and down all four sets of strings
Ranam grins.
Kirana smiles, and joins Kerevin in his chords, then starts the gentle melody above his strumming. Notes fall from her lute like petals from a flower at eventide.
Tarin smiles at Dyane, his attention caught fully by her as he crosses the dance floor with gracefulness.
Blaixe smiles at his mother and waves to Lady Dyane and her new husband.
Salin says "Busy, busy, Caoilfionn. Can't even get away at a wedding, eh?"
Dyane smiles up at her husband, dancing around the floor. They dance slowly, their bodies moving in time to the melody.
Caoilfionn shields her gitar from the fire lizard's claws as she takes the message, setting it aside to read later as she scans the message source. She gives Salin a rueful grin.
Kerevin smiles, playing a simple rhythm, centered around a soft A minor chord, jumping up to a C, then down to A minor in a soft progression.
Dyane and Tarin sweep across the floor, their movements comparable to the beauty of dragons in flight as they twirl slowly around.
Salin grins, "The advantage of a smaller Craft." :)
Eleos follows Kerevin's lead, playing the melodic a minor scale
Kirana adds another harmony, in tenths, and lets the melody and harmonies chase each other over her fingerboard, winding graceful filligree over Eleos' and Kerevin's chords.
Kamilla fidgets a bit as she looks at Kirana, then sort of stands behind her as he readies her gitar and begind to play a sweet melody with Kerevin's playing, the notes remincent of days where the cool breze swept acros the land like a sweet kiss of nature.
Arden hear hear's to Salin. ;)
Salin grins at Arden.
phoenix grins at Angoria, "Your lead or mine? ;)
Kerevin smiles as he hears Kamilla's melody come drifting across the air.
Angoria grins, "You lead, phoe. I'd love to follow you."
Tarin sweeps Dyane around the cleared dancing area, his movements as graceful as the ocean's tides.
phoenix covers a guffaw with a cough, pulling Angoria to the dance floor, amazingly graceful for her added weight :)
Kamilla just watches her hands as she plays her gitar softly, the notes rise in the room to mesh with the dancer, gliding them across the dance floor.
phoenix says "Now if I can only remember which way the hands go from this side ;)"
Angoria giggles and follows phoe, trying to keep a straight face.
Lady Benden makes her way through the crowd, chatting here and there with Masters, Journeymen, and Apprentices, nodding to her fellow Holders when she catches their eyes.
Kirana begins to underscore the rhythm of the dance in the lower courses of her lute, yeilding to Kamilla.
phoenix deftly leads the lovely lady about the circle, avoiding lookingdirectly at her by twirling her incessantly ;)
Eleos rolls his eyes at phoe and Angoria, bringing up the tempo a bit
Ozarin yawns, makes his way over to Siboan to whisper something to her.
Angoria gets a little dizzy from phoenix's twirling.
phoenix humphs at the Archives Master, trying to make her miss her step by quickening the pace..of course it doesn't work ;)
Tilani clicks softly to Thrym, calling him. Thrym lands gracefully on Tilani's outstretched arm, and quickly climbs up to her shoulder, surveying the surrounding area carefully.
Kerevin smiles and follows Eleos' temo change, changing the key to a soft Dm Dorian mode scale.
Eleos oohs at Kerevin, "I like! Nice touch!" He immediately follows suit"
Siboan nods to Ozarin.
phoenix grins over at Tilani, twirling Angoria the other direction to undizzy her ;)
Geraint ducks through the crowd, appearing at Lady Nynaeve's shoulder. "Ahh, m'lady Benden, may I have this dance?"
Salin smiles, and reaches up to scritch his bronze as he appears.
Kirana nods to Kamilla, and they launch into an old Southern Boll Dance in three, as if they'd planned this!
Kamilla takes a deep breath, as she closes her eyes to the music she plays; intwining and circling as the bedazzle the dancers asd she listens to Kerevin and looks up at Kirana, noding as she follows suit.
Angoria smiles at phoenix, and tries to imagine her looking like Amok, "I just love dancing with you, dear"
Tarin slows his steps and leads Dyane toward the edge of the floor.
Ozarin weaves his way out of the crowd.
Eleos almost bursts out laughing
Tarin rolls his eyes at Angoria and laughs.
phoenix chokes :)
Lady Benden jumps slightly, having not heard Geraint approach in the ruckus. She smiles, "I'd love to. But you lead." She smiles wistfully.
Dyane holds Tarin's hand as she walks from the dance floor. She motions Tarin toward a chair.
phoenix drops her voice, "I love it to, my beauty... ;)
Dyane rolls her eyes at phoe and Angoria
Mandew makes his way over from the courtyard..
Cedric makes his way over from the courtyard..
Arden ambles up to Dyane, seeing an opening. He smiles at her. "Congrats!" :)
Tarin smiles and seats himself, sighing again as his weight is taken off his leg.
Dyane smiles, hugging Arden, "Thank you!"
Tarin grins at Arden.
Kirana colors at the cheeks, as if there is much she is holding in, but maintains a straight face.
Mandew says "Congrats, Dy, and Tarin!"
phoenix tries not to bounce Angoria against her swelling belly to much, "I'm pretty sure Amok isn't pregnant ;)
Dyane sees Lord Mandew and hugs him as well, "You made it?"
Tarin says "Thank you, Mandew!"
Angoria looks away from her lovely dancing partner just long enough to catch Mandew's glance and wink.
Geraint smiles happily, taking Lady Nynaeve's hand, leading her away to the open dancing area.
Tilani follows Arden's lead, "Congratulations, Dyane."
Mandew says "Indeed I did"
Dyane hugs Tilani, "Thanks :)"
Dyane hugs Mandew again, "Thank you :)"
Cedric chuckles, "Guess I missed the festivities."
Tilani hugs Dyane and Tarin, "Congratulations, Tarin."
Mandew looks Angoria's way and nervously shuffles his feet.
Kerevin tries to hold in his own laughter, having problems, but still managing to keep his chord progression.
phoenix smiles at all who enter, waiting for someone to come steal her dance partner away :( ;)
Tarin grins at Tilani.
Dyane smiles, pointing to the food and dancing, "Plenty of things left to do, Lord Cedric."
Angoria hopes Amok isn't preggers, if he is that would put a damper on their wedding plans :)
Tarin chuckles at Cedric.
Arden grins at Tilani. "Howdy, Tilani. Nice to know more Igenites made it than me." :)
Salin nods to Lord Cedric and Lord Mandew.
Dyane grins at Arden, "Tilani is originally from Boll :)"
Kamilla listens to the different notes that Kerevin, Eleos and Kirana as she follows, then just softly plays background.
Tilani says "This is...er was...my home for a long time, Arden. Of course I'd come."
Tarin chuckles.
Midgarn turns. "Master Cao, would you like to dance as well?"
Tilani askes Arden, "Have you been here before?"
Arden ohs. "Oh, well.. in that case.. nevermind." He smiles at Tilani. "Care to dance, Tilani?"
Cedric thinks his wedding will be outside and in the Gather Ground. Have the traders perform. ;)
Lady Benden smiles and follows Geraint onto the dance floor.
Tilani smiles /broadly/ at Arden's question, "I'd /love/ to."
Siboan finds a chair and sits quietly.
Cedric steps out of the hall into the courtyard.
Caoilfionn turns from cataloguing the interrelations amongst the other guests and looks blankly at Midgarn, her gray eyes surprised, then her face flushing, though her expression is still poised, "Me, Mid?"
Ranam makes his way over from the courtyard..
Chandari stands up and moves over by Kerevin and Eleos and smiles at her Mentor, giving him a hug and a kiss, then doing the same to Kerevin and flushes slightly.
Arden smiles and leads Tilani out into the dance area. "Now remember.. you'll have to take it easy on your elder, okay?" He chuckles.
Chandari says "You both sound wonderful."
Ranam mingles for a few moments...
Chandari waves to Master Ranam.
Dyane smiles at Mandew, "How is everything at High Reaches?"
Tilani nods conspiritorily...
Geraint takes the Lady from Benden, the joy of his eyes and expertly leads her in time with the music. "I am glad to spend this time with you, lovely Lady Nynaeve."
Ranam smiles and waves back!
Tilani ... and waits for the music.
Salin snorts, "Show the old baker how to move, Tilani." :)
Tilani winks to Salin.
Tarin looks past Mandew a moment and grin s at Geraint and Nynaeve before acting innocent again.
Mandew smiles back to Dyane. "Not bad... we're planning a Gather of our own... it's gonna be different... somehow... I think."
Mandew scratches his nose.
Tarin raises an eyebrow at Mandew. "Oh really?" he grins.
Dyane quirks a brow, "Different? Oh?" She smiles at him.
Mandew goes over to steal a dance with Angoria.
Arden answers Tilani's earlier question. "Yes, I've been to Southern Boll before. Once.. on vacation a while ago." He grins.
Midgarn says "Why not?"
Geraint manages to gently kick Tarin in the shin as he leads Lady Benden around and around.
Ranam makes his way over to Dyane and Tarin, chatting on the way..
Midgarn smiles.
Tarin ouches and grins at Geraint again.
Angoria smiles, and turns away from phoe, hoping she didn't break her heart too badly, and begins to dance with Mandew :)
Dyane looks up and smiles at Ger, humming the wedding song under her breath.
Dyane notices Ranam making his way over and smiles.
Tarin whistles innocently...it also happens that he's whistling the wedding march.
Ranam steps up and smiles at the happy couple.
Mandew holds Angoria close (but not TOO close... he's quite the gentleman) and you can see his rather skinny body sway gracefully across the floor.
Caoilfionn looks at Midgarn and then smiles wryly, bowing, hand out in a mock flourish, "Indeed. Why not? Very well then...I accept. But I have not danced since I was a journeyman."
Tarin smiles at Ranam.
Dyane leans over towards Tarin and mentions how awfully scrawny Mandew looks ;)
Chandari smiles at Midgarn and Cao, sitting down as she watches.
Lady Benden smiles sweetly, her face composed in a subtle smile at Geraint.
Mandew snorts at Dyane :)
Tarin snickers and whispers something akin to that to Dyane.
Angoria presses her body to Mandew's, and lets his knobby knees lead her across the dance floor.
Tilani arrives with Arden out on the dance floor....
Caoilfionn slips her gitar strap over her head and places the gitar in the high sill of the regulation spear-length windows. She does look rather amazed to be asked to actually dance, and not to play.
Ranam says "I am afraid that I cannot do this event justic, or put what is between you into word or object, but I hope that, when you look back upon this day happy years from now, that this small token will remind you of today.."
Geraint smiles charmingly at Nynaeve, ignoring his scheming relatives, as he continues dancing.
Ranam carefully hands the couple a small object..
Midgarn grins, taking Master Cao's hand and bowing before leading her out to the dancing area. "All the more reason. It would not be right to lose that talent"
Mandew dances happily with Angoria, and you can hear a slight clicking sound. You believe it is his knobby knees knocking together. He pretends that it isn't him, and dances on.
Dyane smiles at Ranam, "Why thank you ...."
Arden carefully begins dancing with Tilani.. not wanting to strain something. :)
phoenix giggles at her boss..
Ranam smiles
Tarin smiles again at Ranam. "Indeed...thank you."
Kerevin smiles and slowly stops slowing down his rhythm, until he stops it suddenly by muting the strings with his right hand.
Dyane stifles a laugh at Mandew, calling out to Angoria.
Salin calls out, just loud enough to be heard over the floor, "I get the next dance, Caoilfionn." :)
Cedric makes his way over from the courtyard..
Brielle makes her way over from the courtyard..
Brielle walks in escorted with her Uncle.
Tilani takes Arden's hand, and sways slowly with the music.
Cedric reenters with his miece.
Kerevin smiles softly, "Sorry to stop like that, but there's a song I'd like to play before I have to go. :)"
Mandew gives a most graceful bow, and resists the dinkish urge to smack himself in the forehead after he has bowed.
Dyane holds the rose and gasps, "Ranam, ... its beautiful!"
A peanut flies out towards Kerevin. :) Oh, he'll play another one. :)
Angoria laughs!
Ranam blushes slightly.
Tarin wows and nods. "Thank you again, Ranam!"
phoenix rolls her eyes :)
Kirana steps down, and smiles at Kerevin, before she goes to greet Brielle!
Dyane winks at Mandew and smacks her forehead and bows flourishly to the poobah himself ;)
Tarin just crosses his eyes at Mandew.
Brielle smiles as she looks around.
Arden blinks. The music's stopped? He can't tell. :)
Mandew grins!
Kerevin plays a soft, lonely, yet triumphant, rhythm on his gitar and sings in a soft, rich voice:
Chandari looks at Kerevin, listening quietly.
Caoilfionn smiles at Midgarn and then blushes at Salin's remark. She calls back to Salin as she moves into the proper position, her expert ear judging the music as her hands hold Midgarn's, "If you like, Salin. And can fight the crowds for me. "
In the far north where
Kerevin plays a soft, triumphant theme on his gitar, a theme of two souls together as one.
Ranam smiles and bows to the couple and steps back...
Dragon and rider together
Kerevin returns to his original theme.
In the southern sea
Dragon and rider together
Kerevin ends the song with a soft, beautiful chord that rings for a minute before he muffles it with his hand.
Mandew smiles at Kerevin.
Chandari smiles and winks at Kerevin.
Tarin bites his lips, then grins up at Dyane.
Kirana talks excitedly with Brielle.
phoenix smacks her lips at the cake.."Yum..baby likes it :)
Caoilfionn sways softly opposite Midgarn and tosses Salin an impish, challenging look.
Midgarn carries Cao along the floor, alternatively swapping the lead with her, unperturbed that Kerevin's song ended much too soon. :)
Mandew whispers over to phoenix... "You've gained a bit of weight dear... maybe you shouldn't eat so much cake..."
Angoria rolls her eyes and thinks phoe is just making an excuse for being a pig ;)
Kerevin smiles, "Okay. I'm done. And now, I am sorry to say I must take my leave of you all. G'night and have fun. :)"
Dyane giggles at Mandew.
Cedric chuckles as he catches a whisper.
Tilani applauds the song!
Dyane applauds Kerevin.
phoenix BOL, "Like I ever needed an excuse ;)
Siboan rises ad drifts off.
Tarin smiles and applauds Kerevin, standing.
Brielle smiles and pulls Kirana to the side then take her hand, then does something
Siboan steps out of the hall into the courtyard.
Kirana claps for the song, then waves to Kerevin.
Dyane takes Tarin's hand and casually strolls around the floor, whispering to certain people.
phoenix thinks her boss is clueless as always :)
Tarin grabs his cane and supports himself so he can see everyone.
Kirana turns back to Brie, looking into her hand.
Cedric finds a nice side spot and watches the festivities.
Mandew smiles at phoenix, nodding, pretending he understands what she means by that :)
Kerevin waves.
Kerevin climbs the magnificent spiraling staircase, running his hand along the highly polished banisters.
Brielle smiles brightly
Angoria giggles.
Kirana oooohs! and grins, then snugs Brielle oh-so-carefully!
Tarin follows Dyane around, whispering to the faces he knows and nodding.
Brielle giggles. "Stop that!"
Mandew is a face Tarin knows... and a bona fide person in your neighborhood.
Cedric gets a grin.
Brielle says "I'm not pottery.....Yet"
Cedric hurtles down the wide spiral banister, sliding at a breath-taking speed before landing neatly on both feet.
Dyane cheers!
Mandew grins at Cedric!
Tarin chuckles and raps Mandew's shin with his cane as he goes by.
Ranam claps.."Perfect landing!"
Dyane thinks the banister is going to be the highlight of this party, eh?
Tarin applauds Cedric! =)
Kirana says "You never were... really! But I'm so glad for you!"
Cedric says "Always wanted to do that."
Tilani waves, "I must be off."
Angoria thinks Tarin's cane would be nicely accented by a purple siut :)
Tilani steps out of the hall into the courtyard.
Dyane chuckles at Cedric, "Well, you could've always visited and done it :)"
Geraint _told_ Dyane the bannister was fun, but _nooooo_, she didn't listen to him.
Tarin snickers at Angoria.
Chandari raises and eyebrow, and looks sheepishly at her Mentor.
Dyane loves the banister Ger ... what are you talking about :P
Tarin loves that bannister! =)
Kirana whispers to Brielle, then moves back to the dias, taking up her lute again.
Cedric says "You need some pillows at the end...lotsa pillows..hmm...the banister from the Nerat's fire heights.... ;)"
Brielle smiles. "So is Snog. Oh Kirana, you ahve to come to Nerat sometime so I can show off my new home."
phoenix blinks at her husband, "Do I know you? :)
Kirana says "I want to see it, Brie!"
Brielle nods
Ranam laughs!
Geraint giggles.
Angoria smiles at Nuno, "Your wife ran off with me while you were dead"
Kirana strums a chord, then adjusts some pegs, checking her tuning.
Tarin thinks he'll see about filling the space at the bottom of the bannister with pillows. ;)
Dyane winks at Cedric, "you should see the pole that I have leading out of my balcony upstairs ... you can slide down it from the 2nd floor to the courtyard ;)"
Chandari climbs the magnificent spiraling staircase, running her hand along the highly polished banisters.
Brielle sudddenly looks at her Uncle with such a look that you wonder if it's amusment or soemthing entirly different.
Kirana begins to strum chords in a sweeping waltz rhythm, swaying slightly as she does so.
Midgarn smiles as he dances with Cao. It actually appears to him that she (gasp) may relax for once :)
Salin is as surprised as you are, Nuno. :)
Caoilfionn catches Dy's comment in the stillness after the music and calls out to Dy, "And what was THAT pole used for, Lady?"
Brielle leans closer to Cedric and whispers. "You should try the banster. It's great."
Caoilfionn smiles at Dyane and murmurs something about handy escape routes, her gray eyes twinkling.
Ranam sidles over to the staircase..
Chandari climbs the magnificent spiraling staircase, running her hand along the highly polished banisters.
Dyane grins at Caoilfionn, "Me escaping ;)"
Mandew fears bannisters.
Ranam climbs the magnificent spiraling staircase, running his hand along the highly polished banisters.
Cedric grins at Brie, "I don't want you going down the bannister, niece. I have a great nephew or niece to worry about."
Dyane looks at Tarin, "Looks like we've started a trend here ;)"
Arden finishes his dance with Tilani, after a while, and goes to find something to drink. :)
Brielle looks at him
Tarin grins at Dyane. "It does /seem/ that way!"
Ranam flies off the banister, through the air, spinning across the floor before landing face-first on the carpet.
Cedric grins.
Brielle says "You great nephew or niece isn't gonna care if I go down a bannister"
Dyane laughs as Ranam lands on his face, "Gotta work on that landing :)"
Chandari flies off the banister, through the air, spinning across the floor before landing face-first on the carpet.
Tarin ouches at Ranam.
Chandari follows Master Ranam down the bannister! 8)
Chandari laughs
Chandari rolls over and just laughs
Kirana giggles, but plays on, watching Master Ranam enjoy the Banister expericence, and Chandari follow close behind!
phoenix says "Um..I'm getting someone's channel chatter..."
Tarin winces at Chandari. "You gotta work on the landing too!"
Ranam winces. "A perfect one point landing...:)"
Cedric is too...
Ranam sighs. "The apprentices are going to be talking about this for DAYS!"
Dyane squeezes Tarin's hand and smiles at everyone, "Feel free to party the night away. My headwoman Vela will provide you with places to stay. " She grins, "The dragons are awaiting to take us to our honeymoon."
Chandari laughs
Ranam grins.
Ranam stands up.
Brielle giggles. "Go on, Uncle. Try it. If a Master can, you can."
Chandari crawls over to Master Ranam and hugs him, "you *laugh* ok?"
Caoilfionn takes Midgarn's hand and moves about the dance floor, deftly stepping right over Ranam collapsed in the heap by the banister. ;)
Tarin woo woos and grins, waving to everyone.
Cedric climbs the magnificent spiraling staircase, running his hand along the highly polished banisters.
phoenix says "Forget the apprentices Ranam..*I* will be talking about it for*weeks* ;)"
Chandari stands up.
Cedric flies off the banister, through the air, spinning across the floor before landing face-first on the carpet.
Dyane steps out of the hall into the courtyard.
Tarin steps out of the hall into the courtyard.
Location: Southern Boll Hold - Great Hall
The Great Hall of Southern Boll Hold is large and airy. Large plate glass windows provide a beautiful view of the sea and jungles below. Colourful orchids and other tropical flowers lines the walls in large vases as incredible tapestries hang on the high walls. Along the back wall, hang the portraits of the previous Lords and Ladies who made South Boll their home. A long table with many fine wicker chairs around it, is filled with food and drink. The table is set with a light romantic meal. The wine, by the seal, is the best that the vintner have to offer. One of the two Pernese moons casts a soft pool of light over the room, creating the perfect setting for the romantic dinner. On the high ceiling is a stain glass mosiac, delicately sculpted in an orchid. When lit by the drudges, the beautiful colours from the stain glass cast rainbows of colours throught the room.
Today the Great Hall is decorated for a festive occasion. Garlands of greenery and flowers spiral up along the wide banisters and hang from the upper landing, which overlooks the hall. A small platform, decorated with flowers, stands near the back for the wedding party. Rows of chairs, split into two large sections, is arranged for the guests to sit on.

phoenix still appears to be glowing from her recent marriage to StarSmith CraftMaster Nuno. Then again, if you look to her waist, you wonder that it may not be something else making her glow..perhaps it is just a combination of the two.. ;){
phoenix is wearing a dark rust-colored dress, flecked with tiny pink flowers. It is simple, but flattering to her ever-growing figure. :)
On this particular day, Geraint is wearing a deep blue tunic with silver clasps. The cloth seems to fit his lean frame quite well, and the color highlights his blue eyes. On his lapel are two flowers, one red and one white, the colors of Southern Boll. A matching cloak is draped off his shoulders, the folds of cloth flowing around him. His dark blond hair is freshly washed and shines in the warm sun. Bronze Snob rests on his shoulder, not suffering to de dismissed like Geraint's other firelizards. A slightly goofy grin is on his face, as he's all spiffied up to give away his sister Dyane to that...to that nice guy Tarin.
She's wearing a simple teal blue dress, with white trim at the edges of the collar, sleeves and hem. Her eyes are on her son Tarin on his happy day.
As if somebosy lead my hand,
It seems I hardly had to steer,
And even tho the seasons change,
The reasons shall remain the same,
til we can see the sun again.
Just another part of the plan,
How one life touches the other,
Still we walk this road together,
We'll try to go as far as we planned,
And we have waited for this moment in time....
Ever since the world, began.
Against the driving rain,
But the night has got your number,
Still we pay our dues, win or lose,
In this we're all the same,
But hope still burn aeternal,
For the keeper of the flame!
Just another part of the plan,
How one life touches the other,
Still we walk this road, together,
We'll try to go as far as we can,
And we have waited for this moment in time...
Began.
And this brings no dread.
Mountain, forest, hold, field
All places are one
When I'm with you.
It's a fire of the heart,
And the body, the mind,
The soul.
Yet it dances like a ghost flame
In the corner of my eye.
Instead of leaping after it -
To catch and keep and ultimately extinguish,
I dance into another round
I dance into another day with you.
The land is cold and dim
And the morning mist
Shrouds the dark, rolling hills
A single soul floats
In the sunlight above
The highest mountain.
Soaring through the bright sky,
Blue hide shining like
A multicoloured flame.
Two hearts beating as one.
Together, light as a feather.
Alone with the sun.
Where Ista rises from
The deep, blue waters
And dragons sleep under
The glittering stars,
The golden dragon
Soars under the bright moons
Wings spread wide in their
Majestic glory.
Two hearts flying high.
Together, light as a feather.
Alone under the night sky.
