Chapter 8

Things Had Better Resolve!

The sun rose the next morning, and the world was filled with adrenaline all over again. Despite everything that had happened, that day had been the one chosen for Adler and Aziza's wedding. The rush was on! But Aziza's mind was somewhere else. The wedding was to be at noon, but she barely noticed all the dress fitters running around.

Adler was behaving in a similar way. He stood there, staring out his window, thinking how in only three days he had gone from believing, he could happily live out his days alone, to not knowing how he could stand being away from her for the few hours before noon.

Although, Aziza could not keep from thinking that with her brother, Charon, being arrested and she marrying into a different kingdom, that Nicara would be forced into the throne. Of course, she could and would have Sirius at her side. Still, Aziza hated the idea of tossing all that responsibility on her little sister. Nicara was certainly ready to rule. But she was still Aziza's little sister, and Aziza would always be protective.

As Adler waited for them to be ready. He greeted two very important people, Aziza's parents. It was an awkward situation, seeing as he was marrying their daughter. But they understood. After all this was the man, they had chosen to marry their daughter.

Meanwhile, Sirius and Nicara stood outside, by the fountain. They had decided. They entered the grand room, where Queen Desdemona and King Oberon were entertaining their guests. Then Sirius walked up to Nicara's father, and a moment later a deal was made.

I guess there isn't much more to tell. Aziza and Adler were married that day, and Sirius and Nicara were wed a few weeks after that.

Nicara and Sirius went on to rule the mountain kingdom of magic with grace and style.

While Aziza and Adler gave much peace to the people of their lower kingdom when they heard of the existence of magic.

I mean imagine what would-. No, I am getting ahead of myself, for that is a different story. And it is one I cannot tell at this time.

But I can say that both kingdoms have stayed aligned with each other as friends, even to this day.

And to think, this all happened in only three days, in an effort to save a kingdom and people that had worked so hard to alienate themselves from the rest of the worlds.
