"Arthur Theodericus Silverstar, do you take this lovely woman as your wife?"
"I do," Arthur replied while gazing at his wife. His eyes never left her from the moment he laid his eyes on her.
Ovior wanted to throw the ceremonial book at him but held himself back. He continued, "Veronica the Healer, do you take this powerful man as your husband?"
Veronica's heart was trembling. She opened her mouth and said, "I do."
"Go now in peace and live in love," Ovior declared, "sharing the most precious gifts you have – the gifts of your lives united. May your days belong on this earth till death do you part. I now pronounce you husband and wife. You may kiss the bride."
As if Arthur couldn't wait. Before he was even told to kiss the bride, his lips were already locked with hers.
The magicians who were present stood up. Their applause and joyous shouts brightened up the ceremony.
