Esteban stood next to the princess and received the blessings of his in laws. They blessed their marriage and prayed for the two of them to have a happy marriage.
They do this every year and every year their marriage just gets worse. One would think they cursed them instead of blessings.
After receiving the blessing it was time for Anika to be weighed in gold by the guests of the family who have been invited to join the celebration.
One after the other the guests kept the gold they brought with them on the weighing scale until it lifted Anika off the ground.
Anika smiled as she got raised off the ground for the third time and the guests were still lining up. The more they showed up the more gold she would give out and the more blessings she would receive.
