Forever Begins Here

Since moving to The Hallows and taking up the role of Queen, Briar had discovered quite the love of organizing and planning events and hosting guests. While there wasn't any planned outside guests this time around aside from Artorias' mother and her small family, she did have a great time helping her mate set up the grand hall for the sweet, intimate ceremony. She of course pulled out the best of her wines to lay out with all of the food on the table and even though she knew Fern and Rudy had requested that things be simple she just couldn't resist at least putting together some beautiful, fragrant bouquets to decorate the hall with. As Artorias called the pack for the main event, she got the little gift she had come up with and went to where Fern was waiting to make her entrance.

Even though she hadn't spent much time with the other woman, Fern was about to become part of the Carpathius family just like she had and in a way that kind of made them sisters and even beyond that fact she was still one of the members of the pack and was practically family to her just because of that. She just couldn't resist doing something special for her even if Fern and Rudy had declined having some kind of accessories or outfits the way her and Artorias had. She carried a crown made of white flowers with blue ribbon woven between the stems to hold it all together. Her tail, which was let loose and flowing for the occasion, wagged behind her as he went over to Fern and carefully placed it on her head before standing back to admire her work with a bright, pleased grin. "You look gorgeous!" she insisted in a hushed, but excited whisper. She briefly embraced her new sister-in-law, adding, "Congratulations! I'll see you after the ceremony!"

With that Briar went back to the main dining hall and went to sit next to Zeph who had arrived in the time she was with Fern. She sat with her adopted son who had very quickly sprouted up like a weed, growing even bigger than she had ever anticipated. She peered up at him with a grin before turning her attention to Artorias and Rudyard, waiting eagerly for everyone else to gather so the ceremony could begin.
