"I knew there would come a day when I would watch you leave," comes a deep, resonant voice from behind Lorelei's shoulders.  She turns her head to see who it is, a jingle of her jewelry, of the crown upon her brow.  Swimming through the door of her chambers, gently, caringly, lovingly is her father, the Lord Adriatic.  He had aged since she left, more lines on his face when she returned done with her life as a Delver.  He had never been one to cry before, certainly not in public, but when he held her in his strong arms upon her return he did, tears that mixed with the ocean water but looked so beautiful on his face.  With his youngest, most beautiful, and truly most beloved daughter returned to him, some of that age has seemed to fall away.<br/><br/><div class="floatright">(https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/736x/76/ff/44/76ff44a972d7b7ab47857a22d19b7adf.jpg)</div>"Chadyn is a fine man, a good ruler," he continues as he places a hand on her shoulder, the beautiful sea silk wedding dress even more elaborate than what Lorelei took off to the land above.  Yes, this was the fifth time that Lord Adriatic had said it today, but such was his way.  The rest of the day was a blur, finery beyond what any of the surface could hold, those lovely shells, amazing expanses of water, the castles, and silk, the riches, and then there was Chadyn.  Lord Chadyn, actually, of the Cecaelia, new ruler of the sea witches from the trenches to the south.  He cut a handsome figure in his ceremonial wedding robes as well, his dark legs spreading around him, and the smile on his face?  More beautiful than all the treasures Lorelei ever saw as a Delver.<br/><br/>The wedding was a blur, at some point during it Chadyn, dear, sweet Cadyn, took the cursed ring from her finger, tossing it aside, and giving a proper ring to place next to her mothers.  He lifted her hand to his lips and kissed it, softly, gingerly, "Lorelei, my love, I will hold you forever."  The rest of the day was a blur, the finest foods, the best draughts, music, dancing, twirling, and finally Chadyn took her back to his palace.  He took her in his arms and embraced her, his tentacles moving over her body in an eerily familiar way, quickly finding her hidden slit, his lips over hers...<br/><br/>Then she pushes the will off of her and is back, the emotions still running through her...
