The sky began to lighten with the first rays of dawn. Their meditation had been deep for hours… and their spirits had found an even more comfortable way of wrapping around each other during it all. When the newly wedded couple finally opened their eyes to the growing brightness - at nearly the same time - the world seemed both less and more than before.
They turned to face each other with no sense of guard up… at least between each other. Qatrand stared into dull mint eyes while still processing the beauty and intimacy of the night's event. Elua looked back at the pigeon blue, only a step or two ahead in that process!
'I wonder if I am being objective in thinking this thirteenth marriage night has been the best of them all?'
The blonde stroked the top of her cute wife's head.
"Thank you for sharing this tradition with me. For sharing... everything with me."
The brunette blinked a few times as her eyes gained more light, then smiled at the blonde.
