(I think Emiline is going to become a rider sooner or later, maybe when she travels into the tundra and meets your charrie Night! I'm thinking an Ice Wyvern and then Emory is going to get even more jealous of her XD )

Aurinda smiled softly as they headed the way of the cathedral. The soft breeze that struck them added another smile and she folded her hands once more. Soon the cathedral loomed ahead and Aurinda picked up the train of Katherine's dress a bit and then gently offered her arm. As Katherine glanced to her Aurinda offered a sweet nod and the smallest whispers of comfort, "You'll do amazing." She murmured, her ruby lips just barely moving as she murmured to Katherine. Soon the symphony started, beautiful and elegant to mirror the bride as she arrive. Then they wbegan moving down the aisle towards the grooms party ahead. Aurinda made sure to allow Katherine to take her time, measured and lift steps up the long aisle ahead of them. All eyes were upon the three of them and couldn't help but glance the crowd around them before looking back to the sibling kings. "Aiden looks just as nervous." She murmured once more. Though his back was turned Aurinda could see the vein twitching in his neck and caught the playful nudge of Morcan to his brother. Her smile remained ever present and they soon reached the steps up to where Aiden, the officiant, and the alter awaited her. Aurinda gave a gentle squeeze to Katherine's hand and her eyes shown brightly with excitement and delight at this occasion.

((If you want Emiline to find the egg, then I'll just put a quick bit of info here for you :')
Eggs found in the wilds have a natural bond to their riders. They actively mentally search for them until they make the connection; as their speech is broken, still being inside the egg, the most the rider may understand is 'cold,' 'come,' or directions to where the egg is- 'up,' 'down,' 'back.' These situations mostly happen due to an egg being lost by the mother or father, and requiring a new caregiver before the dragon inside of the egg dies.
^.^))

"Shut up." Aiden growled at him. "You're making me more nervous than I already am." His hands were twitching slightly with nerves. He was half tempted to meld with Ladon to see her before she arrived, but he stopped himself. He took a deep breath in and closed his eyes, before letting it out slowly and opening them again.

When he opened them, she was there; her gaze to the floor, tugging her scarf further up her nose, a habit she'd developed from her own nerves. She glanced shyly at him from the corner of her eye, and then it lifted slightly as she smiled beneath the scarf, slight amusement glimmering in her eyes, her half-hidden expression alone lifting the tension. Morcan grinned and politely stepped back, before turning to face the crowd and spreading his feet apart, moving his arms behind his back, right arm holding his left wrist and his head held steady in the salute of the elite, his gaze intent now only on the doors of the cathedral, expression calm and once again that of the bear-like General and crown prince of varezi. Morcan was best man, but his job right now was to defend the couple as they were wed.
The ceremony proceeded smoothly; Katherine's Varezian was beautifully learnt within just the two days of her being here, and she had obviously dedicated much time to learning her vows, which she changed a little; no, she would not become a slave to her husband- she would become a provider to her husband. No, she would not remain silent in the presence of manly business- for if she had relevant information to speak, she would speak it. And no, she would not subserviently allow her husband to take what he wished from her; she was human and had her own rights to her body. It belonged to her and her alone. The atmosphere was not angry at her vows and her changes to them- it was intrigued. The women were sitting forwards wth curious expressions on their faces, the men looking a little uncomfortable but their heads tilted as they listened. Finally, Morcan swapped his vigil with Ulfric to collect the rings, approaching the two. He held up the pillow. Aiden's ring was a pure band of Varezian Obsidian, harvested from the volcano, with delicate engravings in runes for the followers of Bestia, small wolves dancing and running across the stone. Katherine's ring had been thoughtfully chosen- a band of Oceanan silver, encrusted with the turqoise gemstones that would decorate the horses eyes on their temples, mixed with the more tiny Ruby gemstones which represented Varezi. She struggled to restrain a wave of emotion at the thoughtfulness of this simple wedding gift, and dropped her gaze to her hand as it was pushed upon her finger. Then, the cathedral held its breath; were the rumours true of Katherine Hydor?
The priest blessed them and stepped back, and Katherine hesitantly glanced up at Aiden, before she raised her hands and gently lowered the scarf around her head, sliding it smoothly away to instead wrap delicately around her dress and adorn it with its glittering beauty. She offered him a shy smile, eyelashes kissing her cheeks as she gazed up at him through them. An audible gasp filtered through the hall at the removal, and Morcan bristled with awe, sucking in his own soft breath. No lies. All truth. You're a very, very lucky man, Aiden. he thought to himself.

((You can have a fire wyvern, yes, though it is extremely uncommon as most fire dragons are native to Varezi. However, it is completely possible due to the nomadic nature of groups of dragons ^.^ ))

Aurinda stood silently behind the bride, just off behind her a bit and out of the way. She waited silently the entirety of the ceremony and her eyes brimmed with joy and her smile beaming with happiness. Aurinda hadn't felt this connected to another in a very long time. Pride washed over her then as Katherine recited her vows that Aurinda had helped to translate the atmosphere in the cathedral a palmpable curious nature at how she would rule with these vows. But, Aurinda was so very proud to be serving her with that statement of each promise. Rings were exchanged and now the moment came for all of the kingdom to witness Katherine's beauty. Aurinda couldn't help but smile more as all in the cathedral gasped and murmured at her radiance. Truly this was a moment that would be etched into the history of Varezi. Aurinda sighed gently and had to drop her gaze a moment to save from actually crying at the beauty of it all. The look on Aiden's face, the feel of the cathedral, the aura of Katherine, Aurinda couldn't help but get a bit emotional about it all.

Aiden stared, his breath taken away by the sheer beauty of the woman standing before him. He took a small step forward, looking down at her, before he raised his hands to her cheeks so he could examine her properly, befire lowering them to her shoulders and lowering his lips to kiss her jaw, just underneath her ear. The kiss was a fleeting one, only lasting a second, before he pulled away again.

Katherine had tensed, as would be expected, but she'd accepted it without pulling away, and that in itself was impressive for an Oceanan. The crowd began to clap and cheer, as was the vulgar and loud way of Varezi. Her cheeks red, she glanced behind her at the priest who nodded at a pillow. She stepped away from Aiden to kneel before the people of Varezi upon the pillow, before she frowned and silently avoided it- she knelt upon the stone. Katherine would not rule the people with comfort and disdain, vain pretence of sympathy and an uncaring attitude; she would share in their pain and she would feel every blow that they threw at her. Whisper walked over to lie next to her and bow her head. A golden crown was placed gently upon Katherine's hair, and two golden bands were clasped around Whisper's horns. The two crowned they got to their feet, Katherine listening intently to the cheering of her new people, a new and intense expression of determination in her usually soft eyes. She turned to look at Aiden and calmly held her hand out to him- she spoke no words. She knew none but her vows, and would not speak to her people until she sang the same song as they.

Aiden took her hand and began to lead walk, and as he did he made sure that she walked beside him, and that he wasn't pulling her along. They walked slowly between the rows of people, and outside, where Ladon was sitting since he couldn't fit inside the cathedral. The large black dragon looked at Katherine, before bowing his head to her as she passed, before he turned his attention to Whisper. He slowly stood and approached her, before bowing to her as well, his nose inches from her front paws.

Katherine smiled warmly at the male dragon as he bowed to her and offered a curtsey in response, before continuing to follow Aiden. Morcan fell in front of them, now the elites instead of just soldiers encircling the group as they headed back to the castle. Katherine had never felt more important than she did at this moment in time. When Ladon bowed to her, Whisper raised her head as high as she could with pride, and struggled to restrain her body from wiggling with excitement in the imperial way. She bounded eagerly after Katherine with a chirp and fell in behind her to walk with Aurinda. She was growing to like this human friend of her rider, and now was even shyly allowing the woman to speak to and even touch her, depending on how whisper would be feeling at the time.

Aurinda smiled and followed out behind the newly wed royalty, her eyes on them and she sighed softly and relaxed a bit as they came out into the open air and beyond the walls of the cathedral. What would happen now? What would Katherine's first order be? How would their lives change? She pushed those thoughts away for now. Her eyes flicking back up to the couple who strolled ahead of them as the Elites fell into step around them. Her eyes flickered around and she spotted Marcon and then Ulfric and smiled lightly before looking back ahead.

Ulfric glanced back at Aurinda, smiling slightly, before he faced the front again. Aiden followed behind the the soldiers, his strides long and powerful; he had a bearing of a king for once. He looked around, examining the faces of his people - it hadn't escaped his notice that Katherine had changed her vows, and he was curious as to how his people will have taken the change.

Katherine woke the day after the wedding with an aching body and a quiet soul. She sat up with difficulty, feeling exhausted, and slid silently out of the bed, unwilling to wake her husband in case he decided to go for a morning round. Bloody Varezians.
She grabbed a robe and her scarf and escaped the room, heading back to her own so she could bathe in peace and gain some comfort and relaxation from her maids and handmaiden, before they had to get ready for the kingsmeet. She dearly hoped she'd be able to stay awake for the occasion; she'd had a long night. She entered her room and closed the door behind her, yawning tiredly. Heading to the bathroom she draped her scarf over the door and began to run the bath, not bothering to call the maids to do it- she was perfectly capable of doing at least this herself, and didn't want to wake anybody up for such a trivial task.
---
'How much farther do we have to walk?' Convel tiredly asked the woman that he was blindly following to what could be a potential death trap. He wasn't sure why he was putting his faith in her to help the werewolves, but she seemed like a decent enough person and so he was at least giving her a chance. Running a hand through his hair he tried to recognise their surroundings but was struggling- he had, however, picked up on territory markings a while back, and was becoming more and more wary the further inside of the territory they went. He didn't really want to confront an alpha, as they tended to be stronger than most wolves, and the last alpha he'd ran into had gutted him and left him for dead. That male had certainly placed himself on Convel's 'do not like' list.
