....the wedding had been grand.....far moreso than any his fading memory could recall......the guests were all arrayed in thier finest.....from lands near and far they had come to offer well wishes.....best of hopes.....and to see friends into another phase of life.......
.....all had paled of course once you had seen the two.....god and mortal alike would take pause to simply observe such beauty.....to be blessed by the presence of it.....
.....even those long gone form the coil of mortal frailty could not help but stop.....observe.....remember.....
......gifts.....it was custom......those we cared about.......he must......
......the chest was there......they had moved into the hall with them......a thing of beauty......grace.....few in attendance would notice the slight shadow passing over and through the chest......fading with each pass......dimming from this world at long....long last......until.....
......gone.....what had been.....no more......what was.....watchful.....protective......what had been aimless now had purpose......and peace.....
