Chapter 129 - A Great Wedding In The Tribe

With the first rays of the sun, all the people who were gathered in the center of the village watched as the herald Einar emerged from the great hall.

He was wearing rather strange black clothes, but that made him look elegant since he also had a white bearskin cape.

The black clothes that Einar wore had beautiful silver buttons, but what caught everyone's attention was the black leather belt that held the black suit.

The entire outfit caught the attention of the men of the tribe who were preparing to ask their wives to make an outfit similar to the one Einar had.

Since it was something different from what they were used to, not to mention that it matched the style of the beard that Einar had made fashionable a while ago.

When Einar reached the center of the central square, the children began to play a simple version of the wedding march that they had learned in recent weeks.

That was playing with the guide of the flute of Laura who was the best flute player among the children, Daven for his part had ended up giving up with the flute.

But he found out from Laura that he could use the drum without so much trouble because he could keep the beat.

So using his hands that were holding drumsticks, he completed the noise of the flutes and other instruments.

With the wedding march at its highest point in the great hall, Kassia and Helmi came out, who were in their beautiful bearskin dress.

But what caught the attention of everyone present was the fact that the dresses enhanced the body of the two women. This made all the men jealous of Einar.

While women began to wonder what they were using to lift their breasts, leaving them looking much more beautiful than they were.

Walking slowly and with some emotion, Kassia and Helmi approached the altar where Einar was waiting.

When they arrived in front of Einar, they took off the silk veil that covered her face, raising it towards her hair where the crown of white and yellow flowers adorned her hair.

Staring at Kassia and Helmi, Einar appreciated the beautiful faces of his two women and seeing the beautiful red lips of the two.

He took a deep breath and turned to grab two axes from the large tensegrity table in front of him.

For their part, Kassia and Helmi took a sword from the table, and, staring at the face, the two waited for the words of the Godi Asgot.

Who was standing on the other side of the table and seeing that the three had their respective exchange weapons gave the signal for the music to change.

At that point the kids stopped playing, just letting Daven and Laura play a sweet tune that could be heard all over the place.

Due to the incredible silence that was in the town square, Asgot, noticing the change of music and the silence in the place, raised his hands.

"Today we are gathered here to be able to witness the union between these three people, who have decided to consecrate their love in front of this humble follower of the gods.

That is why the three are carrying their weapon with which they represent their commitment to protect and take care of their family.

Who do I ask the three of you, some of you do not want to hand over your weapon or feel that your partner will not be able to fulfill his duty to protect and care for the family.

Let speak on time and say it in front of this altar where the gods will be able to hear his words. "

Kassia, Helmi, and Einar were silent and simply shook their heads. At that moment, with a smile, Asgot walked around the table and stood in front of them.

"Since none of the three of you have any complaints with your partner, we can start the exchange of these sacred weapons that represent the commitment of each one.

Which will only be able to return to you when they consider that their partner cannot fulfill their commitments or when they have passed away.

Remember that this union will continue until you unleash it, and the most important thing is to remember not to fail the commitment you made in this place in front of the gods and the tribe.

Those who as witnesses will attest to the consummation of their union and the birth of a new family, which will be an important pillar within our community.

As Godi of the tribe, using the power that this position confers on me, I invite you to exchange your weapons. "

At that moment, Einar handed the two axes in his hands to Kassia and Helmi, who upon receiving them gave Einar the swords they had.

When this small but momentous exchange ended, the melody that was playing began to increase in volume as the rest of the children joined.

It was then that the members of the tribe shouted with joy and between the shouts of congratulations and the beautiful music.

Einar approached Kassia and Helmi, where he once stood in front of them, hugging them. They in turn hugged him as well.

But it wasn't until they exchanged a kiss that their union ended and the wedding celebrations began.

With the beautiful background music, all the members of the tribe went to the tables where there was a large amount of food which varied a lot.

But most of it was made with pork meat. Among the dishes were Chicharrón, Carnitas, and Pancita1, among other dishes.

As a soup, there was a large pot of wild carrot cream which was white with a slight hint of orange.

To serve it, Juni was directing some slaves who used a ladle to serve the cream.

As for the drink, Einar had prepared a honey liqueur that complemented the herbal liqueur and the milk liqueur that he had also made.

Although of all the dishes that there were, the ones that attracted the most attention were some which had some pieces of bread that were toasted and seemed to have a strong smell.

Everyone was somehow curious to try them, but they weren't because of the aroma they gave off, so it wasn't until Ibssen and Gerd dared to take one of those pieces of bread.

When they bit into it, they felt the bread crunch, which was somewhat hard but did not hurt their teeth anymore. However, what really caught their attention was the delicious flavor that the garlic bread had.

They kept biting their bread and to refresh their throat they drank some herbal liqueur, unconsciously both at the same time made a noise of satisfaction because the taste that had left them in their mouth was quite pleasant.

It was at that moment that everyone present rushed to the table to taste the garlic pieces of bread while drinking some liquor.

After the passage of time, Einar prepared a large space in front of the altar where they had exchanged their weapons.

All the children who had been playing music got ready to give the last demonstration of their musical abilities.

So Aila gave everyone some water to moisten their throat. They all looked curiously at what Einar had prepared.

The children simply ignored the curious looks of the tribe members and took their respective places in front of the large tensegrity table.

At that moment Daven and Laura, holding hands, placed themselves in front of the children, to later begin to hum with all their might a rather catchy melody.

"La la la la la la…"1

Although they only repeated the same word, the way they did it and the tone it changed could make a beautiful song.

At that time the other children did the same, creating a rather fantastic environment in which Einar walked to the front of the children holding Kassia and Helmi by the waist.

They did not know when Einar had taught the children to hum such a beautiful tune, but still, they wanted to see what he wanted to do.

Upon arriving in front of the children, Einar separated himself from his two wives and, bending down gracefully, stretched out one of his hands.

Kassia who didn't know what to do looked curious as Helmi took Einar's hand.

Einar when felt Helmi's hand, smiled and taking a step took her with his other hand from her waist.

In order to start moving his feet, taking a step back and one forwards, as he did so he brought his mouth close to Helmi's ear and whispered.

"Just follow my footsteps and let me guide you in this waltz, my beautiful girl."

Helmi then began to move, following in Einar's footsteps. If he stepped back with his left foot, she would step forward with her left foot.

The beautiful voices of the children and the movements that the two made a quite novel demonstration in front of the tribe.

Those who did not know what kind of dance Einar was doing, but they both looked so elegant that they simply admired the simple movements of the two.

After a while, Einar brought his mouth close to Helmi's ear again to whisper to her.

"Just turn when I pass my hand over your head, at that moment just release it so I can dance with Kassia who seems to be a little jealous of us."

Helmi laughed and nodded silently. After a few seconds and with Einar's guidance, she turned around and then Kassia who was taken gracefully.

She started dancing with Einar who, unlike Helmi, had had some time to refine his steps in that strange dance.

As they danced, the gaze of Kassia and Einar did not separate at any time because the two were in their own world.

At that moment it was just the two of them and everything around them was non-existent, just a background of the stage.

They danced that waltz as if they were themselves. Even Helmi felt some jealousy seeing the two so synchronized.

With joy on her face, Kassia brought her forehead close to Einar and said words that only he could hear.

This brought the two closer together and they would exchange a big kiss before Einar gave her a spin and went back to dancing with Helmi.

I really recommend to listened the song in this moment for feel the next words of the chapte
