A New Home

Narisa kept her eyes on Calaren's throughout the entirety of the short ceremony. After their vows, they exchanged rings and then finally were pronounced husband and wife. The guests all applauded when Calaren kissed Narisa and she closed her eyes and kissed him back, ignoring everyone else but her new husband. The rest of the day was spent celebrating. There was some food and wine and music for dancing. Narisa was greeted by many people of the village, including her cousin Laenaya who was there with her husband Brandt. She had heard that Laenaya's son had been kidnapped, but she did not ask her about that, fearing that she might become upset. Laenaya had given birth about six months earlier to a daughter and Narisa was eager to spend more time with her cousin at some point soon.

As the sun began to set Serethiel approached Narisa and Calaren, knowing that they would be eager to spend some time alone soon.

"Conleth and I are going to let you both stay in the guest house for now until your house is complete. We've already had your things moved over. There also should be enough food and wine to sustain you both for the next few days."

Narisa smiled at her grandmother and hugged her and then hugged her grandfather as well.

"Thank you so much for everything."

Calaren could  have never guessed that such happiness could exist in this world. All that had been lost and the powers that vied for dominance and control made him doubt the goodness of the world...until now. Narisa was everything to him and as she set the most beautiful ring upon his finger he knew it was all true. The life he had only dreamed about was now his and he did not dare to wonder as to why fate had brought him to this moment. Their kiss sealed them together and they soon took their first steps as husband and wife among all who came to rejoice  with them.

They ate and drank and he was quickly acquainted with Narisa’ s large family or part of it anyway. He should have expected this. Where her family was a massive, growing thing, his was small and besides himself there was no one to continue the family line. He’d have to talk to Narisa about that but not now and maybe not even soon. He wanted to be with her and ONLY her right now.

It was Conleth that finally pushed them both away from the gathering. Calaren had been worried about trying to disappear too early but now he didn't have to and he carried Narisa in his arms away toward the guesthouse that they were given until their own house was finished. He was thankful Narisa unlatched the door, it was a long walk with her as a burden in his arms but he refused to let her down until he kicked the door closed behind him then moved quickly to the bedroom.

The house was decorated in a more rustic country style but it was charming and clean and the bed was large. He set her down upon it then immediately began taking off his clothes. He had waited too long for this and his  urgency was obvious when his small clothes came off. “I hope you don’t think you’ll be getting much sleep in the next few days wife,” he said completely naked before her. He had gained a little muscle since they had arrived and managed to lose a few pounds as well. He was strong, lithe and all hers. “We have much to...discuss,” he said as he stepped forward to help her out of her dress.

OOC-Should we stop here and begin a new thread?

OOC: Sounds good, we can split from these 2 and go to um, Aragorns youngest daughter and her husband. I forget names.

OOC-That was Ariana and Lucas, but Ariana isn't the youngest. She is the second youngest with Kressara being the youngest.

OOC: Oh yes, well...set us up!
