Katrana's Reasons NOT to Marry Solaron

Taking a simple walk through your Sanctuary, you walk near those roses and briars you know Katrana loves ever so much. Complete opposites, yet she makes them seem as one. You notice a scroll lying on the bench, well, what Katrana refers to as her bench. You know whom it is from, just from pure sight. A normal scroll yes, but winded with briars and dried roses. You smirk as you turn to walk away, thinking she left it for Solaron. A gust of wind almost pushes you back to the bench. You shake your head, and look back to the scroll, which is now blooming with beautiful roses, no longer dried by the sun. You look to the scroll and notice writing upon it.

To The Weaver, My Lady and Guide

You are careful to unwind the briars, even being a deity a prick by one of those stings horribly, yet Katrana never does seem to mind. You’ve seen Katrana’s handwriting many, many times, but you never saw it like this… (Katrana normally writes as the first paragraph, and the label.) Such chaos, even in her script…

Lady,
I am writing you this day, because you requested that I give you three reasons to not marry Solaron. It is with this scroll that I shall deliver you the three reasons. I did not think very long on these, as they came to my mind in a flash. Sometimes, I wonder if I should put Solaron through this, with as fast as I came up with those reasons… It makes me wonder. My love for him is unbearable, I love him to Demon Realm and back again, I want nothing more than to call him my husband, but well, well, the following reasons make me wonder…

A reason for the Wyrm: I need to increase my understanding, my intelligence. As the Wyld’s Handmaiden, I should dedicate all time to my studies, and revelations in its being. I should be doing what I can to spread the Wyld’s word and be devoted to learning. I should be constructing journals of what I have learned, not collecting flowers for a long-awaited day. My time could be spent, increasing my knowledge of the Triat lore, as the Acolyte Priestess, I should know more than I do.

A reason for the Weaver: What can I say Lady? You are The Sealer of Souls, the Raiser of the Dead, the Force of knowledge and preservation, the deity of the Chosen. What better reason to not marry Solaron then to preserve your following. I am a Blade that is my duty, to preserve the lives of the Chosen. As Acolyte Priestess of the Triat, I fight to Preserve the lore, the ways of the Triat. I fight to extend my knowledge of the Triat. How can I do this, while taking are of a family, of a husband..

A reason for the Wyld: As always, I am ALWAYS changing, even when I give a sigh of relief that I could possibly be stable, I find I was changing even then. Solaron always called me his little Wyldling, I laughed at first, but being the Wyld’s Handmaiden I finally know this is true. Not that I am his, I know that I am Solaron’s I was meant to be his, I have known that. But a Wyldling, always changing, never stable. He is to some degree a Wyldling also; I mean everyone is, aren’t they? (Once again proof that I should be studying and not marrying.) But me, I feel myself changing, I never know who I am, I know my name is Katrana, I know my studies, I know my memories, but it is something much deeper than that. I change my surroundings at a thought; I can make a sky turn dark and a hurricane appear on the most beautiful day. My emotions are out of control. I’m happy one second and depressed the next, and it isn’t just that, when I am happy, I am VERY happy, when I am depressed, it is to the extent that others take deep concern in me. I love creating life, creating anything, but I also love, to terrifying amount, destruction. I crave it, I need it. For instance, the fire I created at Ty’s and Noctus’ wedding, I needed that to happen, I fed off of its chaos, the rapid motions of fire, the bouncing from branch to branch, gave me power, but then the beautiful tree that was created after, gave me life, gave me joy. See, even my thoughts are chaotic, I can barely live with it, how can he...

So as you can see Lady, I have my reasons for not marrying Solaron... In all honesty, they scare me. I want nothing more to marry him, but those reasons... I will fight to marry my true love, even if it means fighting myself.

With all the respect and honor I hold,

Katrana, Handmaiden to the Wyld, Shaman Adept, Acolyte Priestess of the Triat, and Blade of Fate

Solaron’s Reasons NOT to marry Katrana

Three Reasons We Should Not Be Wed:

Katrana is the Wyld Incarna. Limitless potential, constantly shifting and changing, with no order or growth. Her temper changes like lightning, and she will have a flock of mortal followers to watch over. Becoming an Immortal will change her even more than ever. Can I, a mere mortal, learn to deal with such complex changes? Do I want to?
Thus, the first reason:
We should not be wed because of her changing persona(s). She IS the Wyld.

Secondly, she will be leading a group of devoted, spending much of her time with them. Do I want to give her yet ANOTHER diversion of time? Take more time away from building her power base? From returning knowledge of the Wyld and Triat to the world?
Thus, the second reason:
We should not wed because I would be a distraction from her work.

Finally, I am no longer an elf. My charisma, my sexy elven body, all of it has disappeared. I am the same on the inside, but my appearance has changed, for the worse to many people. Can Katrana truly love an Ogre? Does she want to?
Thus, the third reason:
We should not wed because she deserves more than an Ogre.
