26-07-2005, 01:06
One of the few marriages ever in the long history of the Eternals this marriage symbolized the love and affection that had grown between the two peoples upon the ancient Eternal world after the migration of the Protoss to it and it's resettlement of the world by the Eternals.

The two to be joined awaited all of the guests they had thought to invite, the old allies of their friends, and even a few cordial opponents, as well as personal friends of the couple to be joined, there were few that Berenalai would invite, but it may be that Vaneana had more to bring to share in their joy.

ooc: A setup might be nice. Who's there? what does it look like? who is being wed? why? Any alterior motives? Anything at all? So far you've basically just confirmed that undeed, the threads title doth not lie, and there is a wedding. Thats exciting, but not not roleplay savvy.

OOC: Getting to it, after I distribute the many invitations I have to give for this, even if half of them are pro-forma...
The two being wed are Berenalai, a Protoss Dark Templar, and Vaneana, a young Eternal woman, no alterior motives, other than not cluttering a different thread with the marraige ceremony, who's there will be decided when they arrive, and it looks as it will be described later.

Lady Yaveana looked deeply into the eys of the warrior of the Protoss Berenalai. Then she said," Under the light of Eternal jewel ashining in the night feasting we where happily and blissfully then we meet and saw each other one not thinking they were worthy this was all changed all by what was said by one born Eternal. Now they are are happily going to be married to one other for all eternity."

"Indded my love, the light of the Jewels has truly blessed me in this, I believe that father said the ceremony would be in the central square of Aman, so if you have any friends to invite, it may be good to do so now."
The Central square, a broad flat expanse in the center of the jungle city of Aman, in the center of the square is a massive Pylon, nmade from a jewel that was gifted to the Protoss by the Eternals, it sheds a soft and soothing light on all who enter the square, easing their hurts and relaxing their minds.

"The rites of this wedding for the Eternals are that the couple must have a party the night before the wedding in order for the couple's families to get to better know each other. Also they need to be married by an Eternal of at least a billion years of age. Which in must cases is an kinsmen of the bride or groom of the Eternal. Do these sound fair to you?"

At these wordss there was a resounding cheer from the assembled Dark Templar, thousands would flock to the new kings banner, and an army greater than any the Protoss and their allies had ever before mustered would march to the aid of the Eternals.

An mighty Eternal Lord yelled," Silence! This clamour is not endorsed by the Eternals though the defence you have the right to go to without fear of any punishment for it. Though if you beyond the borders of the Eternal Empire you shall be exiled from the Eternal Empire until the Eldest One pardons you from your actions."

"We care not, we have pledged our lives to your aid, now it is time to pay our debt, at least in part." Berenalai turns to his bride(I forgot her name, go figfure...), "I must do this, my honor would be forfeit if I did not." Having explained himself to the only Eternal who's opinion truly matters to him he turns to the commanders that brought the Protoss here, "Assemble the legions, we move as soon as possible, let none assail this place for our indecision."
Another cheer went up at this, they knew that many would die, but they were honor-bound to fight and die for the Eternals who gave them their home.

His wife bowed her head in acceptance then another Eternal Lord said," I will join you in you quest as I will not let your people die in vain."
Upon saying this a million warriors of races other than the Eternals from the Eternal Empire assemble with their six foot staff weapons and dawned in full armor assembled. for battle. Upon seeing this the Eternal Lord who had warned them earlies said," Then your lives go now and belond to the fronteir of the Eternal empire and the war against the Black Crusade."
OOC: I am thinking that this turns like the Noldor's exile from Valinor.

"Let it be done."
Ten legions stood assembled, 100,000 Protoss warriors, Divisions of Terran ACS stood ready on other worlds along the circuitous route they intended to take, Zerg Swarms entered the warp and made for their own rendevous points...
The Dominion was marching to war.

OOC: No she does not leave the Eternal Empire, what I am thinking she acts to gain for them to be pardoned. Kinda of like Earendal.
The warriors of the Eternal mustered and lead by the lone Eternal Lord led his forces with the banner of the three stars and the Eternal homeplanet marched before them. At the front of the army they meet up with the Protoss King and the Eternal Lord said to him," We shall march with you into this war as your allies and fight alongside you."

IC:
Hundreds of dropships descended on the planet, preparing to bear away the Legions of the Protoss to battle with their foes of old.
The King agreed with his newfound ally among the Eternals, "Thank you, it is time that we repaid our debt at least in part, we may be cast out in defense of our home, but that has happened to us before, and at least our loved ones will still have a place when we are gone."

The Eternal Lord answered," Your people do not owe us anything. Yet, I am thankful for you marching to battle with host of Lord Tervica of the Eternals. Through this may our people come closer together."

OOC: Not much, from what I know Chron and a couple other Chaos nations are tryingf to spread aforementioned taint throughout the not-so-Chaos nations, that about right?
IC:
"You are generous to say so lord, but we do, at least in our own eyes, did we not aid you now we would be bereft of honor, we would lose face among the clans, and we would be failing in our sworn oath of defense, and if we wre to do that we would be cast out and cursed for all Eternity. I believe that a human poet named Kipling said it best, "For those who kneel beside us, at altars not thine own, who lack the lights that guide us, lord let their faith atone, if wrong we did to call them, by honor-bound they came, let not they wrath befall them, but deal to us the blame" You have called us, and we have come, there is no second option for a man of The People."

OOC: Well what you said sounds good and is basically what is going on. Also I meant the real crusades.
"That man was wise, but yet he was only mortal. To truly comprehend the universe you must first understand thy own mind and heart. The Eternals have chosen you as their sucessors to their Empire when the Second Coming of the Eldest One. When he returns to this plane the Eternals will ascend to him and become far greater and powerful then ever and the Protoss will be given the choice to join the Eternals or remain on this plane."

"But even so, he was a very good poet, and perhaps wiser than even some Eternals, age is not all that matters to wisdom my Lord, sometimes the youngest is the one who sees most clearly. But let us save philosophy for a later time, now we have a war to run..."
OOC: I know enough, Various knighthoods, kings, emperors of Holy Roman Empires, etc., go to reclaim the holy land from the muslims.

OOC: I am thinking of starting a new thread where the Dark Eternals send armies of their slaves to invade the Eternal Empire and great many Protoss march agianst and I am thinking that many of those are Protoss are enslaved and the Eternals are greatly angered as well as many other Protoss (aka Black Crusade veterans) are wandering the universe which saddens many of the Eternals.
"Many cultures say with age comes wisdom, but your point is well made. Yet the time for talking is later the time to go to war has arrived. Do you wish to come with us in the transportations syestem?"

"I am afraid we cannot, we have many widespread rendevous to make, and the Transportation System is a bit too direct for our allies constitutions, so we'll have to do this the old fashioned way."

"I believe we have enough transportation." From above the gathered throng more than 100 Arbiters opened warp gates, and the Legions moved onto their ships, 3 Battleglobes, the Dahak, the Trosan, and the Bombardier had moved into the system under Enchanach drive, now thousands upon thousands of Dark Templar warriors boarded their massive ships and departed for other planets.
Last to leave was the new-crowned king, he boarded his personal ship last of all, because it was his duty to be the last gone and the first in, he bade his wife goodbye, and departed, their first world would be reached in just under a day, and they would reach their final destination in just under a week.

The Eternals Armada assembled at the final stop of the Protoss and where fully assembled within a day (OOC: Eternal tech) after the main army of the Etenals had gathered in the planet below. All that was left was to drill the soldiers in how to fight the forces of Chaos. Meanwhile, the Eternals were grived by the choice of the Protoss to march to war in such might, but the New King's wife would be the salvation to them before the end of time. Yet, the Eldest One would watch over the Protoss that went to war.
