Talion smiled but the expression didn't reach his eyes.  "If Pearly plays nice than so will I.  But I'm not going to seek her out, believe me."  Though if Kersinta did get cold feet, he probably would have to face the God-Blood again.  That was all right.  He could cut off whatever she was wearing today too, give even more people a good show.  "Don't worry, Innora, I'm not here specifically to cause trouble."  He was just there to facilitate it if Kersinta was.  Not that refusing to be given away to a god she'd been chosen to be given to by others and not of her own will would be trouble; it would be her damned right.  And he and Kisara were there to make sure she could exercise that right.<br/><br/>The doors opened and there was a cheer as Kersinta emerged.  The bit with the birds was a bit overdone, he thought, but no one particularly cared.  He moved behind the would be bride of the sea god at what he hoped was a "respectful distance" from her.  He glanced over at Kisara, "So...this is a low key wedding, for you, right?"  He grinned, hoping to relax them both with the quip.
