The Exchanging of Vows

"Goldgel shouts, 'Now hear the words of my son and his bride as they proclaim their love to the endless skies where they will whisper for eternity to remind them of their vows.' He gestures to Saqr first.

Daldarac turns to touch his torch to the first of the firepits as Saqr speaks, filling the air with spicy, musky scent, spirraling around them in the wind
Saqr stands up before facing Zuil, saying in a clear voice, "Zuilyun, before you, I was void of emotions. I did not cry or smile. I had felt empty. But ever since we have met on that day when Father told me to introduce myself to you, I had enjoyed every moment with you. I had gotten the opportunity to open up to you and be happy with you. I would like to spend the rest of my life with you like that. Full of happiness and love. I swear that I will protect you to my dying breath."
Goldgel smiles adn nods to Saqr, gesturing now to Zuil. Erimyl grins and wipes an eye, happy tears beginning to well.
Zuilyun quietly stands, muttering. "You're going to make mine seem so short!" She'd cough, and look up to Saqr. "Saqr, on this day I give you my heart... And with my heart, I hold this promise.." She took his hands with a smile. "That I will walk with you hand in hand... Wherever the road ahead leads us.. Learning.. Living.. Loving.. Together as husband and wife. Till the end of our days."

Daldarac sighs in happiness, beaming and then quickly lighting the second firepit, this one giving out sweet and flowery scents, curling to mingle with the musky smoke, reaching upwards and outwards around the trees

Saqr smiles warmly as he looks to Zuilyun.
