Description

You see Achaeno the Dreamwalker.
He appears to be an Elf.
He is tall and mature.  He has deep-set azure blue eyes and pale skin.  He has long, deep black hair that is frosted with silver at the temples.  He is clean-shaven with bushy black eyebrows that put dark shadows in his eyes.
He is in good shape.
He is wearing a dark silver circlet set with a clear glimaerstone star, a set of fitted black brigandine armor with large silvered pauldrons, a heavy ebon back sheath embossed with dark silver flames, and some sturdy leather boots fastened with a sterling buckle over the arch.

Ceremony

Achaeno strides in to stand before you and BRIDE, his eyes roaming over those before him.  He gravely draws his black, silver-edged blade from over his shoulder and holds the naked steel horizontally in the air with one steady hand.  His intense blue stare is measuring as he gazes at you and BRIDE.

"Today we are gathered to witness the joining of GROOM and BRIDE."  Achaeno doesn't raise his voice, nor do his eyes stray from you and your betrothed.

"Marriage is not all about roses and strolls on the beach."  Achaeno snorts softly, "You have to be willing to work every day to keep harmony between yourself and the one that you have chosen to live beside.  Many things will seek to come between you.  You must be ready to fight to protect what you are hoping to build here today."

Laying the tip of his blade on your shoulder, Achaeno asks, "Do you vow, before Ronan and these present, to work every day for your union with BRIDE, and fight if necessary, to protect it?

Arcing the tip of his blade to rest on BRIDE's shoulder, Achaeno asks, "Do you vow, before Ronan and these present, to work every day for your union with GROOM, and fight if necessary, to protect it?"

Success

Returning his blade to the horizontal position, Achaeno says, "I call on Lord Ronan to guard and guide you in your dreams and in your waking hours.  May he bless your house with the peace and depth of spirit that will linger on through the years and make you stronger together through life's many triumphs and tribulations."

With a deft twist of his wrist, Achaeno's blade sweeps downward, and he rests the tip on the ground.  He lays both hands on the pommel, and his first smile lights up his features.  "Cherish each other.  Enjoy every moment you have together.  Drink in each other's presence and never take the other for granted.  As the two of you share love, share friendship."

The area goes dark, and the stars are visible overhead for a brief moment.

"Ronan has blessed this union," Achaeno intones.  The cleric's sword comes up again, and he points it at you and BRIDE in turn.  "By Ronan's hand I pronounce you wed, as one.  Let no one sunder what has been wrought this day.  Bound in flesh, bound in spirit, and bound in love.  Go forth and live your lives fully and without a whisper of regret."  Achaeno nods once and resheathes his sword with a fluid movement before striding out.

Rejection:

Achaeno nods once and resheathes his sword with a fluid movement.  "It is best not to risk angering Lord Ronan by entering into something you are unsure of.  Partake of the provided refreshments.  Rest well."  He then turns and strides out.
