Laeta had stayed closer to the back of the others for the ceremony, not wanting to get in the way with her less than stellar mobility. Though Mel was of great help, the two of them found themselves needing to take careful steps, weaving through other wolves with murmured apologies to find space to breathe. The venue itself was beautiful; every bit as dreamy as a wedding should. The castle was aglow with life Lae had ever seen before, and the scents of many different packs filled her nose. She glanced about, recognizing the Aegis and his bride, as well as Fern, but the others were from other packs she likely didn’t even know the name of. Ruby eyes glanced about, pools of calm but also surprise at the sheer mass of wolves from all over Auster, and even Boreas - there were too many to have come from just the packs on the island, after all. The monochromatic wolf glanced down at Mel, checking in with her companion and faithful crutch. "I’m quite alright, my lady..” The badger said, though his voice faltered upon scanning the crowd once again. His clawed feet shifted nervously. "J-just so many wolves, is all. I’ve never witnessed an event on s-such a scale.”

Laeta smiled softy in reassurance. Truth be told, a nervous twist begun to form in her gut as she recalled such large events weren’t her forte, either. However, she wished to be here for young Artorias and his wife - such an event only came about once in a blue moon. And she had to give her own well wishes too. She had a gift of her own clutched in her maw that she gently picked up from the ground, and upon finding a space for her to greet the newlyweds, she gently urged Mel along beside her, her limbs thin as willow branches and not quite sturdy, but was able to find her way towards them nonetheless.

The space was open for her to offer her blessings, and the older wolf approached the two with a wide smile and sparkling eyes. Gently placing her gift on the table with the others, she said "Congratulations to you both. May your years together be filled with happiness and light." She nodded gently towards her offering - it was a gente yet elegant bouquet of dried flowers, wrapped delicately with a coil of vines for support. The dried arrangement revealed an intricate, careful arrangement of colorful wildflowers, lillies, and more. "I made a bouquet of flowers I handpicked and dried, so that they keep for many years to come." Hopefully, the couple would enjoy it. It was certainly modest compared to other gifts offered, but with her health, it was the best she could do. Offering a polite dip of her head, and Mel doing the same, the two smiled and returned to the festivities.
