[Games] Re: "Royal Dynasty" Congrats - Round 2
Nation: Chlebek
DH [43]: The Grand Emperor Nikolai Aleksandr Konstantin Bartosz III
DW [20]: The Grand Empress Maite Garden Osane d’Abatantuono Bartosz of Chlebek and Baroness of Loria
His Royal Majesty, the Emperor Nikolai Bartosz III is married! The people of Chlebek could not be happier! Emperor Nikolai's wife is from the country Loria which borders half of Chlebek. Her name is Maite Garden Osane d’Abatantuono and she is a baroness. She is 20 years old and stunningly pretty. She is known as "Gotzon" or "Angel" in Loria because of her good deeds and peaceful disposition. She was chosen out of 47 other girls to marry Nikolai. The Royal Council for Chlebek searched 7 of their surrounding countries to find a wife for him. After they were chosen, Nikolai and his parents spoke with each one of them for 15 minutes each. After they were finished Nikolai made his choice and his parents agreed.The marriage followed Chlebekan traditions with a week of celebration. It involved 2 large dinner parties, 3 formal balls, and 1 day of prayer and rest for all the people of Chlebek. On the 7th day the wedding was held in the Royal Cathedral with over 2,000 guests inside and over 3,000 more waiting on the outside. The ceremony was on television, radio, everything! The Royal Cathedral has no electrical lighting and is completely lit by candles that line the Cathedral walls. At the front there are 77 candles around and above the alter. It is very breath taking. The wedding ceremony for a member of the royal family takes about 2 hours total.First, there is the introducing of the groom or "Serkan" as they are called in Chlebek. Then, the Serkan's family (parents, grandparents, brothers, sisters, aunts, uncles, etc.) are introduced. After the Serkan, the bride or "Emese" is introduced along with her family. Next, the Serkan and Emese are brought together and they read a 2 page prayer. During this prayer all of the people kneel and close their eyes. After the prayer, the pastor/priest called the "Sabas" reads a passage after which the Serkan and Emese repeat it, holding hands and looking upwards towards heaven (on the ceiling of the cathedral there is a large mural of the stars and sky, so it would not be hard to imagine you were looking at heaven). After all of this, the Serkan and Emese exchange rings (These rings have been in the royal family for hundreds of years) and then the Serkan kisses his new Emese on the forehead and they are married. The people stand up and lay flowers (the white rose which is the nation's flower) at their feet as they walk by. The couple were then left alone, for two weeks at the royal family's vacation palace which is about 30 miles away, to get to know one another and enjoy each others company. Nikolai and Maite are very happy with their spouse and can not wait to spend their life with each other**.
*(The purpose of this is that the two families have never met)**(Which Maite is very happy about because she is a bit of a romantic and could not have been happy if she could not love her husband)
Hope I didn't write too much :)

LOL actuallyI just did it really inefficiently and caused a days-long confusion that, thanks to an unhappy coincidence, never got resolved. I think it would be fun too.
