Jai (Keeper of Love and Passion) slips on her Ceremonial robe. She lifts the sash over her head and places it around her neck. The sash had the symbol of ameris on one side and the Symbol of Love and passion on the other side. She closes the robe with a white silk rope. She rakes her fingers through her hair and it bounces back into place shining and fresh again. She smiles at her reflection and then gathers her items for the Ceremony. She takes them to the temple to meet Silent and Black. Once there she set up the altar and once that was done she began to seat guests.

Once all the guests are seated Jai begins the Ceremony. She casts the circle and welcomes the guests. She leaves a portion of the circle open so the couple can enter it. Then she closes the circle. She takes the broom and sweeps outward around the edges of the circle. She places the broom on the floor before the altar. Then she goes to her position at the altar, raises her arms, and says:

"Ayanna, Guardian of Ameris, bless all those who are gathered within this sacred circle. I present to you Black Magic and Silent Death in celebrating their handfasting, a joining of their lives as it was done in ancient times."

Jai reaches down to the altar and lifts the burning white candle and uses it to light the small green candle:

In the eyes of Kalia, may you have a fertile union.
She moves to light the small white candle:
In the eyes of Talia, may you begin your life together cleansed of all that is harmful.

She moves to light the small gold candle:
In the eyes of Garek, may you hold each other in honor above all else.

She moves to light the next candle a small light green one:
In the eyes of Joli, may your love continue to grow.

She moves to light the small black candle:
In the eyes of Khristos, may your time together be endless and for all eternity.

She lights a small candle of red:
In the eyes of Draven, may you continue to love each other beyond death and through all bad times.

Lighting the last of the small candles, one that is a light purple and matches the color of the symbol on her sach:
In my own eyes, you are blessed with love and passion of which no one can tear apart.

She returns to her position at the altar, and rings the bell twice:
Keepers hear me, what you once did for one, you must do for two. By the power of Ayanna, I charge you to perform your tasks with love and compassion, blessing this couple each day anew.

Then she speaks to the couple:
The sharing of a life-path is not to be undertaken lightly. It requires much love, commitment, trust and work. Many times it also requires compromise of desires. Life's path may come rocky with illness, sorrows, or a host of little nagging difficulties. Look upon these as tests of your love and dedication to each other. Each of you is giving your heart and dreams into the keeping of the other. Do not break the trust you have been given, for it is sacred before Ayanna. If you can speak in honesty before the Guardian Herself, answer "I will."

Black watches the candles as they are lit and he enjoys the ceremony very much for it is very unique and the perfect wedding for himself and silent. He is very pleased knowing he finally has the woman he has been waiting for. He smiles for last night he was shown the vision once more and knew that the savior of Ameris would be born unto one of the wives he has now. He smiled knowing he had finally done something right. His love for SIlent had and always will be true and he meant what he said about divorcing the others if she asked him to but he knew she would never asked that and he was pleased knowing she loved him without question. SO when Jai asked him he would he blurted out without a second thought , loud and strong. "I WILL!"

Silent watches as Jai casts the circle and sweeps the path clear of evil energies. Silent beams with joy knowing that she is going to be married to the one man who has always done nothing but love her. She couldn't help but think of how her dreams were coming true right before her eyes. She watched Jai as she lit each candle, her lips moved but Silent barely heard her words as her mind was set on Black and the future they would have together. As Jai finished speaking and prompted the two of them for an answer, Silent spoke out in an excited gust of energy "I will!" She then smiled to Black hearing his identical response.

Jai takes the three ribbons, one by one, from the altar as she describes them.

"These ribbons symbolize the three main aspects of marriage, Love, Honor, and Unity. This is the begining of a new life together. A binding of one to another to create a union of souls, to live together as one for the rest of your time."

The couple holds out their hands, Silent’s left and Black’s right. Jai loosely wraps the three ribbons around their wrists. Then she says:

"May you always stand together, but not too close together.
May you be as one, but keep your own self free.
May you love fully, but not smother with that love.
And may you walk the path of the Goddess each day of your lives.

So mote it be."

Jai then moves her hand toward two white, carved candles and says:

"Here are the outward symbols of your inner dedication to each other. Before these witnesses, light the candle of your chosen mate to symbolize your union."

Jai lights the little taper and hands it to Silent who takes it with her free hand as the other hand is bound to Black's. She reaches out with the candle and lights Black's carved candle. She then looks into Black's eyes as she hands him the candle.

"Black, when I met you I had my life invested foolishly in another. Although that was a very large mistake I have six beautiful children. I come to you now not as an innocent woman starting her life, but as an aged and season woman with a rocky history and a sorted past. For a very long time I have loved you and I tried in vain to deny it. When I needed someone to lean on you where there. When you needed a healing hand, I was there. We have been the best of friends for as long I can remember. Our love is undeniable for it is true and real. No matter how many times I pushed you away you where always in my dreams, my thoughts and my soul. I have pushed my past and history out of the way of our love so that we can have a happy life together. I love you with all of my being and I can't begin to express how much that is. I vow to you that I will always be by your side for the rest of eternity. There is no place I would rather be."

Black takes the candle and lights Silent's candle.

"Silent you have always been there for me. You know more about me then anyone else. You were there for me through , SHyShadow when she chose power and prestiege over love. You were there when Dreams abandoned me each time. You were there when I foolishly punished myself by marrying Mystic Ed the three times. Over time those who declared their love for me have dissappered but you have alwasay remained. I will spend eternity making you happy. i am no spring chicken anymore but I can still give you all the love you need and deserve."

Jai removes the ribbons from their hands without untying them and lays them on the altar. She then raises the wine chalice high over the altar and says:

"By the power of Ameris granted to me, I declare Black and Silent joined in handfasting! Blessed be!"

Jai hands the chalice to the couple, who drinks and hands it back to her. She drinks, then places the chalice back on the altar. She then lays the broom where the couple can step over it and says:

"Over the broom and into new life!"

Silent holds Black's hand and steps over the broom. She knows that this is symbolic of starting a new life without negativity and with fertility. She lifts her gown a bit as she steps over and once on the other side she turns and kisses Black deeply. She stands facing him just gazing into his eyes feeling so happy just to know that she is finally his wife. The smile on her face mere instinct at this point, for she could nothing but smile knowing she was now Mrs. Black Magic, and in her mind the only one. Black looked into her eyes and could see exactly how happy Silent is to be his wife. Finally she turned away and with her arm around his waist she walked with him to mingle with their friends and family. He stoped her for a moment saying, "I promise you Silent Magic there will never be another wife for I will not mock the love we have. It would not be right to any of you. Always know I love you baby and anyone who says otherwise is just a jealous hag who knows you will always have a place in my heart they can't consume."

"Let us rejoice with our friends and celebrate their special time. For the I am honored to present Black and Silent Magic."

The circle is closed, and the wedding celebrations continue. The guests are welcomed to join in a feast with them. The ribbons are given to the couple who can then use them as part of their anniversaries.
