Rhaena stared at him for a moment then broke into a well practiced smile, "Thank you, my lord, for both the praise and the congratulations. There shall rarely be a marriage so happy as that of myself and the Prince," rhaena told him, it wasn't strictly speaking a lie. "I was wondering if the King mentioned anything of any ideas that that My sister or I may have put to him?" she asked, inquiring as vaguely as possible. "He has not," Lord Reyne answered. "I regret it. Perhaps you might care to enlighten me?" "Probably, though I would not mind so much if I did not. I would rather wait a long time to marry a good man, than rush to marry an unworthy one." Elseyris had been feeling anxiety creeping into her mind, and her breath was tight in her chest but managed to smile at Megga; "Still, we shall see the future soon enough. And it is easier to face life's challenges with friends." "Yes. I think so too. I'm glad I have a friend now. I was so worried I wouldn't make any," Megga confessed. "I'm not good at making friends." |

"No, I shall leave it to him and his Councillors." she said, giving an elegant shrug, "he shall bring it up when he is ready, I am sure." she said, and then smiled to Lord Reyne.
"Are you enjoying the spectacle so far, My Lord?"

"After the ceremony," Aegon promised, "It seems I am needed."
He walks briskly over to Arwyn. "My Lady," he greets her courteously. "I am Prince Aegon Targaryen. I will be representing the crown in your wedding today, giving you away to your husband-to-be. My half-uncle is truly the luckiest man in the realm today." He offers her his arm. "I am sure the Valyrian customs may seem unusual to you, but all you need to do is follow Baelon's lead."

"Are you enjoying the spectacle so far, My Lord?" "Well enough. I have never witnessed a Valyrian wedding. I am eager to learn how they work," he confided. "I prefer hunting to weddings, truth be told, but we can't have everything, can we?" "After the ceremony," Aegon promised, "It seems I am needed." He walks briskly over to Arwyn. "My Lady," he greets her courteously. "I am Prince Aegon Targaryen. I will be representing the crown in your wedding today, giving you away to your husband-to-be. My half-uncle is truly the luckiest man in the realm today." He offers her his arm. "I am sure the Valyrian customs may seem unusual to you, but all you need to do is follow Baelon's lead." Arwyn curtsied deeply to the prince. "You are very kind," she said, slipping her arm through his. She wore a blue gown, long and flowing, that showed a hint of cleavage. At her throat she wore a gown of deeper blue, embroidered with the sunflower of her sigil. "Baelon is a good man, I know. I hope I will be a good wife." |

"You look like the Maiden herself, Lady Cuy. No man could be displeased with you, I am certain." Aegon signalled the players to begin playing the typical music as stewards ushered the guests to their seats.

"I can't see why, you seem absolutely charming to me. Perhaps we're both the same kind of outsider. If that is so, then all the better that we have found eachother." Elsey glanced around briefly, and saw that the ceremony looked almost ready to begin, and turned back to Megga; "It's going to start soon. You should go be with your sisters now. We can talk more later." |

Tiberys walked picked up a goblet from the table he was at, taking a drink as he closed his eye and rubbed his temple. He could feel a headache starting to come on and didn't mind having a bit of wine to calm his nerves. He chuckled to himself as he thought about it, he was a guest more nervous then the bride or groom probably were, considering who it was getting married.
He set the goblet back down, eager to get the ceremony over with so he could get out of this outfit and into something more decent and a lot less flashy.

No man could be displeased with you, I am certain." Aegon signalled the players to begin playing the typical music as stewards ushered the guests to their seats. The music seemed strange and eerie to Arwyn, and to anyone not raised in a Valyrian household. It had a very different melody to those favoured by the bards of Westeros, yet it was also stirring. Arwyn seemed nervous as she moved forward on Aegon's arm. "Are you sure you don't mind this?" She asked. "I heard you worship the Seven, the same as me." |

"The Valyrian gods are not my gods," Aegon replied reflexively, before remembering that they were supposed to be. At the least he should feign as much, for Elsey's sake. "They are, ah..." Aegon stumbled in his truth, "They are the gods of all House Targaryen," he lied awkwardly. "I grew up around them." That, at least, was true.
Then he stopped talking, for they were walking down the aisle. Aegon did so with the sort of solemnity appropriate for a wedding under the Seven, though he recalled that a Valyrian wedding could get significantly rowdier. He led Arwyn to the dais before the a depiction of one of the Valyrian gods (Zyraxes, Aegon thought), then stepped off to the side. He would have a line about giving the Lady Arwyn away to Baelon's protection, but that would require the groom first. He hoped his bastard uncle had not gotten cold feet and run off to some brothel or alehouse.

Lord Sergio smiled into his cups, and then slowly walked over to Rhaena. He approached slowly so she would not be surprised. Then he bowed to her, "Rhaena right. We met the other evening. Do you remember?" He smirked as if it would be ludicrous for her not to remember."

On hearing the music begin, Baelon took a last swig of wine. He walked to the door and let himself have a few deep breaths before opening it. He made it to the dais before Aegon and Arwyn, but not by much, and gave his bride a wide grin as she approached on his nephew's arm.

"I do not believe I do," she said, after composing herself from the slight shock at initially seeing him, "You must not have a particularly memorable face," she said, with a pointed look showing she remembered him perfectly, and sat down near the back for the ceremony, excusing herself from Lord Reyne in the process.

Sergio sipped his wine, and he followed Rhaena to her seat. He sat beside her and with out looking at her spoke softly, "I had hoped you would remember more then just my face."

In her chatting with Megga, Elsey had not given thought to finding a seat, and so found herself having missed the opportunity to sit with her siblings. She quickly opted for the nearest available seat, next to a man she did not know, who was talking to Princess Rhaena. Once in the seat, she glanced apologetically at him, hoping that she hadn't intruded on anything.

Sergio turned and smiled at the new arrival. He bowed his head, "A pleasure."

Elsey nodded back with a small, earnest smile;
"And to you too, My Lord. Princess."
She extended her nod to the stranger into a small, polite bow to Rhaena, managing to smile earnestly, despite a twinge of anxiety.

Sergio smiled, "Oh... please forgive me. I am Lord Sergio Delinaal." He glanced at both woman, knowing that Rheana did not know his name either. "It is a pleasure to met you."

Rhaena was a little flushed, and took a pause before replying, swallowing slightly, "Lady Elseyris... I trust you are having a pleasant time at the ceremony."

"Well met, Lord Delinaal," said Elsey, his foreign name feeling odd to pronounce. Rhaena was a little flushed, and took a pause before replying, swallowing slightly, "Lady Elseyris... I trust you are having a pleasant time at the ceremony." "Yes, Princess. And yourselves?" She glanced between them with a congenial smile, addressing them both. |

"I am having a good day. Your weddings are quite different then those in Braavos." He turned to Rhaena, and asked, "How are you?" He game her a small smirk.

"Fairly bored," She said, and shifted, seemingly uncomfortably, and looked directly at the Braavosi, before glancing at Elseyris, "Thank you for asking."

Sergio laughed, "I thought woman cried at weddings, but your hardly seem wet at all." He turned to Elyseris and added, "You neither. Is it only Braavosi woman who became so emotional that they break down?"

"I cannot speak for Braavosi women, having never met one." |

Sergio replied, "Well you must come visit us some day. It is the grandest city on the world. So many wonders, and beauties." He smiled and tilted his head as he spoke to her.

"I'm sure many cities make that claim, My Lord. But I have heard tell of Braavos' greatness and beauty, so I shall believe at least some of what you say," replied Elsey, with an amused smile. "What brings you to King's Landing?" |
