Cloud Neun (9)

[borg9]

Dizzy from the Union of two parallel universes. I woke up on Kipee Mull. Watching the sunrise high into the canopy. Breathing in the clear, damp, jungle air I wondered what this day would bring. I waved at a fellow homin who must have joined me on the Mull while I was dozing. He had a far away looking in his eyes. I recognise the expression. I knew how he felt. Looking into the distance with a longing that is inside us all, for a peaceful time.

I returned to Fair Haven, the telegraph had told me there was a buzz in the air. Old friends and new faces all around. I teased my suspected sister, Frydeswinde. Sxarlet was the 'too radiant' as ever, she is a breaker of mens hearts. Playful Kyerna, warm as every was there too.

The travel had tired me, I just stood.

After a few minutes had past, I dressed for harvest, checked my pick and practice my prospect. Was I showing off? Maybe!

I was waiting for my sister, she takes forever getting dress. I shuffled my feet and looked around.

Finally, Nine appeared, dressed and ready. We left for the Enchanted Isle. I had some promises that needed to be fulfilled. Weaving through Torbacs, Kinchers and Kirosta. I reached the spot. A special place I know that has the choicest Patee Nodes and most basic Fung Resin.

The Enchanted Isle was not as quiet as it used to be. I had scanned the region for signs of homin life. A new but familiar name appeared to me. It was LadyD, we exchanged good days and I wished her well on her up and coming special day.

Then my Seren appeared. Normally, she would wake before me and be there to greet me when I woke, however today It was I that was up with the Izam. We had been dating for about a year now. She was the reason, I had be so distracted. Late delivery of Armour orders, a complete lack of interest in hunting and harvest. Well, I was in love, an all-consuming love. She has become as special to me than Atys itself. We chatted as we dug.

Time past quickly, we playfully teased the Mekkis and Shalahs.

Looking deeply into her eyes, I knew the moment was right. That perfect moment, where time stands still and nothing but the two of you exist. I had a question for her, one that I had longed to ask, but never quite found that right way to ask it.

The words flowed like the waterfalls of our lands, perfect moment and simple words.

'Will you be mine for ever?' I asked her
'For eternity?'
There was a pause, we were lost in each others eyes.

'Will you marry me?' I wanted my question to be clear.

Time stood still as it does at moments like this. A lifetime, an eternity, seemed to pass in a second.

'Yes!' She replied.

I feel for the poor Shalah whose tail I pulled, as we raced around like children.

Full of joy and hope for the future. In heaven that She loved me as much as I loved her.

We decided to celebrate as the Fair Haven bar. We rushed to tell the world of our joyous news.

Many friends were sleeping as it was late, but some were still about.

A party ensued at the bar and much was drunk.

This was the happiest day I have ever had on Atys.

So thank you to our friends for coming at such short notice and thank you for the warm congratulations from those who couldn't. I hope we didn't show ourselves up to much. Not that we noticed much that was going on around us after the bubbly was opened.

We will set a date as soon as we have had time to recover from our hangovers.

[filtern]

Im sorry for not going to Tryker as planned yesterday now. I had my hand full of a Horrible Jugula, who struck me into a coma, so I missed 2 or 3 hours of yesterday (server stall).

I would probably have been in the bar if I had been around, drinking too much stingabrew again.

Im happy for you two, may you have a long life and many happy days, and not too many children running around and bother the Shalahs! :D

[threbus]

congratz neun and seren :)

[archerke]

grats neun :)

[cstrahd]

congratulations again, your party was a full success, even though I was only there for a few minutes, a few glasses of fresh Yubo Juice.

For all that were missing this moment, you should have seen them, full of joy, holding hands, giggling ...

Happy for you

[herc2004]

Gratz!!! Neun and Seren. :)
I Wish you the best.
Sorry for not be able to come to your party that night.
When will the marriage will take place?
Gratz again.

[sprite]

Congratulations you two, I hope I can make it to the wedding :D

[ilthor]

Big grats, its not everyday a homin ties the hang... hmmm divine knot. :p

Out of fun, hope i can make it too. Anyway, best wishes!

[borg9]

Thanks once again for all you kind words and congratulations.

Seren is busy running around make arrangements, wonder if the grin will every leave her face. (Hope it never will)

We will be speaking to the 'offical wedding planners' to firm up the arrangements.

As for a date and location, we haven't decided yet. I hadn't planned on asking for her hand, we were taking it slow (if you know what I mean), but the moment was perfect and to have missed it would have been foolish.

It was just magical for the both of us that so many friends, just dropped what they we doing and came to toast our news. We are truely blessed to have such friends, many stayed awake much longer than normal (as we did).

I still can't quite get over the atmosphere in the bar.

A truely magic day for so many reasons.

New friends and a bright future.

She is my one and only. Now she and all of Atys know that this is the first day of the rest of our lives together. With someone so special to share my future with, I am the happiest Homin alive.

[scarazi]

awww, so pleased for you both. 2 very lucky trykers indeed, Seren for finding the most loyal and amazing guy in Atys, and my good friend Neun for finding the most beautiful gal arround. Hope you both have a great life in Atys, and wish you every sucess and a blooming family. Can`t wait for the hen night :D , the barman was great last night, finally showing off his cocktail making skills, i knew he had it in him, and the tryker hangover was well worth celebrating with you last night.

*goes to get a hair of the gingo*

gratz again, may Atys be with you

Congrats 9 and Seren! I have been following this from the side a bit and Seren? This guy want you! :) Take care of him though or I'll do something nasty to you :P (Same goes for you Neuny-sweety! ;))

[rabcaz]

There under the sun, two Homins had so much fun
Questions asked and answers given,
their hearts into joy and lust was driven
As eye met eye and hand met hand, eternal bonding in the sand
To have one wonderful word say, holding your hand never to be stray
For one setting you free, and always by your side be
Soon you will say the words of lust, "with thee my heart I entrust"
Good days to come, when you settle in your home
From me, i give my best wishes to thee


*bows*

[borg9]

'Moved' is all I can say!

Thanks guys you are all great and I love you all!

@Drakfot *hug* just lovely!

@Abs without you none of this would be possible, you are a special friend.

@ALL you are the reason why I will fight hard to the future of Ayts!

'Love conquers all' is what they say.

Everyone, and I mean the whole community, is invited to the wedding. It will be a very special day for Seren and me. A day where all differences will be left at the door.


A toast to the future! May we all find in Atys what we seek. I know I have found true friends and a love I wasn't even looking for.


OOC: go go the biggest party ever!

As long as I can come and watch, I am fine with it.

Congratulations, Neun. I was to deep in the merger event to notice anything else. May the fruit of your loins prosper!

[borg9]

After a long and very enjoyable discussion with my Seren.

We have decided on a date for our wedding.

We have decided that the Wedding will take place on Monday 2nd of May. (UK bankholiday)

We would like to formally invite everyone to our Wedding, so put aside you differences for just one day and join us in our joyous celibration of unity.

We look foward to seeing old friends and new faces.

OOC:

We are planning on holding the wedding at a reasonable time to suit the majority of European countries (we are UK based players), however in the spirit of unity, will are considering holding a very late evening 'Blessing' to allow other timezone players to join in our celebration, if they wish.

Once the location has been decided (too many wonderful places to choose from). We will orgainse some travel trips for those who want to come.

[sprite]

\o/ keep us posted

[calel]

Grats once more; looking forward to it :)

Eeeeek, I need a new dress. *runs off to shop once more*


Edit: Issue solved :)

[borg9]

To quote an old song .....

Tell me have you seen her.

Oh guardian angel of mine, why do you hide from me.

I seek her here, I seek her there, I have sort her everywhere!

Phae - I really need to talk to you about Seren's and my wedding.

Seren is getting worried that I might have my heart stolen away, so come out of hiding please.

[borg9]

The winter snows have fallen across the lands bringing a chill to the air.
Winter is a special time for me its the closure of a year and this reminds me that life, as in all things, has an end. Please don't miss understand me, this is not a sad time. Its a reminder each year that life is short and must be treasured and enjoyed to its fullest. Its a time to celebrate and rejoice, to gather close to those whom you love and reflect of the good times of past year. This will be the last winter that I am a single man. When next winter that comes I will be married and have the warmth of love to carry me through these dark nights and frozen lands.


We have been working hard, making plans and dreaming dreams.

As you know we, Seren and I, are dedicated to the homins of Atys. We hold no ill intent towards anyone. Its with this thought in your minds, we would like to invite each and everyone of you to our special day.

Take a few moments out of you busy lives and take a moment to reflect of the future of Atys and as we are joined in marriage. We hope that all who attend will see there is so little difference in people of different races and religions that one day our dream of a safe and united Atys will come true. A land without kitin, wars and conflict. A safe haven for our children, the next generation. When the first spring flowers emerge, we can once again be reminded that life is a cycle of birth, death and rebirth. As it will be for Seren and I. Our rebirth in to married life will be one of greatest moment in our lives, bonded by our words and love, we will step out in to the world as one. From that moment we will continue our quest to help all, care for all, protect all. For the people of Atys are the future of Atys.

We have selected a location, just north of Hoi-Cho.

We will be organising travel from Hoi-Cho to the wedding site.

Also through this week will will do our best to help anyone who would like to come but has not yet had chance to see the beauty of Zorai. Beware though, many homin have lost their hearts to another here. I know this for I was one.

The wedding will be held early evening (BST) and a blessing will be held very late at night (BST). The blessing will held in the Zora town square for those unable to attend the ceremony. (Specific times to be confirmed closer to the date.)

Please spread the word, as all are welcome.

Special thanks to Phae and Theai for you help so far :D
