Perseus had never hurried faster than he did getting back to the Hylian Ruins. While the carriage had taken its time to arrive, Perseus had made the decision to go ahead on horseback to make sure that it was safe to continue their journey. All he could think--or rather; all he could hope was that he’d either catch up to Kura, Artemis, and the others, or they were already safe at the camp.
[break][break]
The rain crashed against the muddy dirt through the trees as he made his way through the Lost Woods on the dawn of his second day of travel, and he knew he would be riding until sundown. The sleep deprivation, his lack of care for the wound in his waist, and the lack of energy as result of his beast form had left him fighting consciousness. He refused to sleep until he arrived and knew that everyone was safe.
[break][break]
He was patient, he refused to eat, and he never stopped - and by doing so he would hopefully arrive sooner to the arrival time of the others. As luck would happen, as the sun began to set and the sky turned clear and red, Percy had made entrance to the camps just as the Royal Family had been settling in.
[break][break]
Guards bowed in respect of the King’s entrance to the territory. As he arrived to the stables, he quickly dismounted his horse and left it in the care of the guards. Two sets of men approached him quickly, crowding around him as he dragged himself toward the Castle Ruins, wincing as he held onto his side, but pressed to continue his footing.
[break][break]
“Your Grace--you need medical attention immediately!”
[break][break]
“Zelda has not woken up, she needs to rest, you cannot wake her!”
[break][break]
“Please stand back!” Percy snapped, waving his hand to brush at the guards as they flanked away from its path. He could understand their widespread panic as he arrived however; his clothing had been badly torn and covered in blood and dirt, while his exposed chest revealed makeshift bandaging along his lower abdomen. His hair was dishevled - streaks of brown caught in his rosegold locks from the moisture and dirt. Silence dragged out upon the group as he closed his eyes and sighed.
[break][break]
“Where is Princess Kura?” he asked calmly.
[break][break]
“The royal family has requested that no visitors will see them until they have rested--”
[break][break]
“I demand to see my bride to be!” the young King growled as his eyes became fierce. “I will not take no for an answer until I can see her myself!”
[break][break]
The guard became quiet as fear washed over his eyes, nodding quickly in a scramble to turn and bring him into the castle. “Y-yes my lord.”
[break][break]
The two stumbled inside and Percy could feel his heart clawing through his chest with every pump of blood. The anxiety ate away at him, and he would worry until the very moment he could see she was safe. He walked the halls with his best intentions of hiding the limp, but one foot dragged along the stone floors just a bit longer than the other.
[break][break]
The arrived to a door that was tightly closed, made of wood with ornate leaves carved into the sides. With two iron handles that met in the center, the guard stood for a moment, watching to see Percy’s next movements. The King became impatient, motioning away from the door with a scowl. “I don’t need you to stand outside the door. Give us some privacy, please.”
[break][break]
With another shaken nod, the guard swiftly moved back into the main hall, and Percy watched the handlebar carefully, his hand taking hold of it. With the other hand, he knocked gently, waiting to hear her voice as his clenched fist against the door began to tremble. Answer faster, I can’t wait this long--fuck it.
[break][break]
Without even waiting for a response, Perseus quickly opened the door and flung himself inside, closing it behind him and looking to Kura with a desperate and fearful expression.
[break][break]
There was a moment of shock from boths ends, as he simply gazed at her for a moment, before a small sneer curled over his lips, and he looked down sheepishly. “I’m sorry, I just…” he chuckled anxiously. “I was worried something might have happened so I got here as quickly as I could.”
[break][break]
The snickers slowly altered to snivels though, as his voice became wavy and stifled and he slowly fell to his knees. His exhaustion had finally caught up with him, and he was beginning to slip away from his complete sanity. “I thought I was going to die--I thought you were going to--I’m sorry, I should have stayed with you,” he huffed out as he looked back up at her.

[Kura Hyrule †]

Break Me, Hate Me, Let me feel as hurt as you,
But promise me you will never let us go,
Save Me

Ocean blue orbs opened up to the view of a blood red sunset, the stars peeking past the purple hued clouds on their first night riding home. The rock of the horse under her body lulled her in the arms of her sheikah retainer, who was so adamant to carry her despite having a wagon or two on the ride. His protection was soothing and the sound of his heartbeat acted like a lullaby, so she slept, her exhaustion crashing over her like a wave. It wasn't until they had arrived at home did she even utter a word, her soft words like a blessing to the concerned friend who carried her diligently to her room.

The forest was quiet, the silence mocking their solemn demeanor as they worked to settle into the cold yet welcoming ruins of ancient Hyrule Castle. Men limped to an empty cot, Royals retreating to their quarters for much needed rest, and the Princess was cleaned and dressed to lay in her large pillowed bed. Yet sleep feigned her, allowing the traumatic sensation of the memories to replay in her head over and over.

Kura knew that nightmares would torment her should she forcefully fall asleep, and instead found some solace with a leather bound book in her hand. Garrett had left her alone for once, seeking his own treatment and perhaps to harass the guards about the security of his ward. Either way she sat in the dark candle lit room, her damp washed hair framing her face and strewn around her petite torso. She appeared exhausted, dark circles encompassing the underneath of her normally cheerful and bright eyes. She even wore a stoic scowl upon her lips in the lack of enthusiastic expression.

The sudden rap at her door caught her attention, her gaze lifting from the words of her book to the wooden iron-wrought barricade. She didn't expect any company, and Garrett would have just entered without knocking, so she was speechless in her confusion. Before she could slip out of bed and answer the door, she found it opening and the sight of Perseus coming into view.

A moment of silence and hesitation came over her, like the image of him was a figment of her imagination, --but it wasn't, he was very much so real, and stood in front of her. The young king was covered in blood, and she couldn't tell if it was his own or someone else's. Clothes torn, eyes red from lack of sleep, he even wore the elements of the weather outside on his body. He looked ghostly and weak, and he fell to his knees.

The book in her hand fell to the stone floor at her bare feet and in her linen night dress she ran to him with tears in her eyes. She immediately cast her arms around his shoulders, trying not to hurt any part of him that may have been. The pent up emotions of fear and helplessness returned, yet she couldn't help but find a smile at her love's return.

"Shhh..." she whispered, her body quivering from excitement and anxiety,"I am here... you are here, --we are alive." Eyes and fingers traced over him, pulling back the bloodied tunic he wore. An audible gasp passed her lips and she immediately sprang onto her feet, finding reserves of will and strength to scream out, "SOMEONE HELP ME PLEASE!", her arm flinging open the door to her room, and the soft pads of her feet running up and down the hall, "ANYONE?! PLEASE!"

Tears continued to fall as she returned to him, desperately trying to remove his shirt, not caring about the stains that now decorated her stark white dress.

"PLEASE DON'T DIE!" she yelled out, panicking at the gorish sight of blood and mangled bandage, "I need you..."

[break]He didn't want to let go of her. He held onto her for his dear life, arms draped over her like bandages that were glued. Her voice soothed him, but his weight shifted to her support as he rested his head on her shoulder. He wretched in agony, letting out a gasp in anguish as she began to remove his clothing - the air hitting his wound causing it to sting and he began to sob behind a stifled tongue.
[break][break]
She removed herself from him in a panic and began screaming for help as she flung out the door. He turned quickly, frantic eyes reaching for her as he shook his head in retaliation. "Please--don't bring them here yet!" he pleaded with her. "I'll see the doctor I promise--I just--please just sit with me for now," he bargained desperately.
[break][break]
She returned to him and began vigorously removing his shirt, sliding it down his arms as his bare chest was revealed. Bruising and discoloration was evident - not only from the battle that took place, but the toll his ancestors' magic took on his anatomy. He looked down shamefully at the wounds displayed over him - like a canvas with ink splatters. He couldn't control the tears, but his breathing subdued in to sniffles.
[break][break]
"...Is it true," he finally cracked. "Did Zelda bring back The Hero?" His mind flashed back to the Goddess of Masks revealing his cowardly frame to the group, and how Eleazar had handled the news of his return. He hoped that perhaps it was an illusion; a ploy to make everyone more terrified of the future to come. But at the same time, perhaps it was the only way. They were up against something far larger than a simple tyrant now.
[break][break]
"This... this is so much bigger than we previously thought, Kura," he admitted fearfully. His eyes became small as they searched her gaze."We can't mess this up, because it is actually life or death now. Eleazar will kill us, and he has the power to do it whenever he pleases."
[break][break]
He didn't want to scare her. He never intended on scaring her; but he was absolutely horrified of something happening to her, and there was no way to mull this to sound any better. His lips quivered still, as his hands took hers tightly and he looked at her desperately. "Please come back with me to Labrynna, this isn't safe anymore. Hyrule isn't safe for any of us anymore."

[Kura Hyrule †]

Break Me, Hate Me, Let me feel as hurt as you,
But promise me you will never let us go,
Save Me

Her concerned gaze deepened as delicate fingers moved to graze the cheeks of her king. Kura has never seen him like this, so broken and afraid, -- and it frightened her. What happened that would cause him to lose his sanity like this? The details of the event with Eleazar had yet to be explained to her, as they were waiting until the next morning to hold a council, so she could only imagine the horror he experienced to cause him this degree of trauma.

"That is what they are saying. I am still quite in the dark... everyone is really. My sister," she hesitated, knowing that he would feel concern for Zelda, "She is not conscious right now. So it is hard to say what is real and what is not."

Kura teeth clamped down on her quivering lip in her attempt to not come to tears. She felt his pain, both mind and body, and her heart yearned for his smile again. She wanted to just stay there and hold him gently, to comfort him as he needed, but it was about what was best, for all of them. The idea of leaving sounded nice in her head, but it was far from pragmatic.

"Perseus... It has always been life or death. Eleazar could have made his move a long time ago... We all could have died even before Eleazar stepped foot in Hyrule."

Blue eyes focused on his, trying to convey her emotions without overwhelming him. He was slowly slipping, and she had to earnestly try to prevent that.

"I don't know what happened in that castle... but I do know, that if he had the power to do something, he would have already. He is waiting.. for something I am unsure, but he is waiting."

The young woman leaned forward to press her forehead against his, her hands clasping into his tightly.

"Percy,-- the world isn't safe anymore. Do you really think he will just stop at Hyrule? What's to say they will not try to reprimand the whole isle? Labrynna, Holodrum... Hyrule. I don't think anything can sate his greed," she explained slowly, "But he is back... The Hero, and I am not going to abandon my people, and my sister, when they need me the most."

She tried her best to give him a smile without breaking into tears, "I know you will not abandon your duty as well. You are strong My King."

[break]“Unconscious..?” Perseus mused over her words for a moment as he took a moment to try and understand. Majora had not gone into detail of what had taken place as she met her “goal”, but with the hero being shown before them… it was obvious that she achieved something. But if she was incapacitated in the process, was it worth it? “Is she unconscious and stable? Or in a coma?” he couldn’t help but ask. Whatever this was, and whatever she did, it must have taken more than just physical power.
[break][break]
“I’m sorry--I shouldn’t ask if you don’t know. I just… something bad is going to happen. I can feel it.” She spoke of this always being life or death, and he knew this to be true, but now... it just seemed different. Before, there was a glimmer of hope--so much so that he and Asthar took the chance to try and stop his madness! But after everything he’s seen now, he’s not so sure. He retracted a bit, pulling from her as he looked down with closed eyes.
[break][break]
“I… I believe that if he is back,” he started, but paused for a moment as he winced in pain. “If the hero has returned to us, he has a heavy burden. Seith was but a lesser god. One that perhaps even with trials fallen short he could have defeated if he had trained just a bit longer. But this...”
[break][break]
He didn’t know how to put it into words. Even the myths of the world’s creation fell short in Labrynna. It was something that was rarely looked into, since his people heavily believed in the worship of the world around them, rather than the beings that once were. The name of Majora was not one so easily forgotten though--the story of Hylia and Majora was one of the key stories of their creations.
[break][break]
“We’re dealing with the very goddess of Chaos, Kura. Hylia’s Sister has been revived. The goddess of masks, Majora--and she’s given Eleazar a taste of her power.”
[break][break]
He winced again, grunting as he leaned forward, his arm pressed tightly against his side as he let out a short breath.
[break][break]
"Percy,-- the world isn't safe anymore. Do you really think he will just stop at Hyrule? What's to say they will not try to reprimand the whole isle? Labrynna, Holodrum... Hyrule. I don't think anything can sate his greed. But he is back... The Hero, and I am not going to abandon my people, and my sister, when they need me the most."
[break][break]
He wanted to beg her to go with her, but he knew she wouldn’t. The desperation in his eyes lingered as he looked back up to her, but ultimately became defeated with a nod. He had to think carefully in his response. She was right; he would not abandon his duty… but he would sure as hell be terrified of it until the very end.
[break][break]
“I don’t want to wait. I can’t wait until this is over, because who knows when it will be!” he huffed, his hands moving to her cheeks as they gently traced her flesh. “I don’t care if it has to be a secret. Or if it isn’t traditional, or big and flashy--I just want you.”
[break][break]
He probably sounded crazy. He knew he sounded crazy. And there was still a chance that she could say no, or that he’d freak her out, and that he’d scare her off forever. But he didn’t want to waste a single moment with her, swallowing hard and looking into her eyes carefully.
[break][break]
“Please, my love. Please marry me as soon as possible.”

[Kura Hyrule †]

Break Me, Hate Me, Let me feel as hurt as you,
But promise me you will never let us go,

"...Majora...." the name lingering on her lips like a bad taste on her tongue. With her sister having returned to them in a deathlike sleep, and her own rest needed, she had received small amounts of information regarding the situation they were thrown into.

She seen how much that name affected him, like a taboo subject that parents kept carefully away from their children. Something terrible happened in that castle, and with time she would know, but for now she only desired to sooth her quivering king.

Kura smiled softly, her hands reaching up to graze over his as fingers traced over her cheeks. What he asked was sudden, rather crazy as a matter of fact, but she knew that it would mean alot for him, and honestly a part of her desired that as well. In this world that was quickly being swept into darkness, the two of them could be happy, if only for a small amount of time.

"Yes my love, I will go back to Labrynna with you. We can get married, in whatever fashion is best."

On the verge of tears, a lip trembled as closed eyes buried themselves against the flesh of his hand. She wanted to feel safe, even if it was just for a fleeting moment, maybe in the arms of her beloved she could feel that once again.

Bright blue eyes gazed up at his, decorated with a pleading expression. Her voice cracking with despair, "I am scared too Perseus... I have never felt so helpless.... and so useless." With Zelda the way she was, that left her brother and herself in charge, and she had even yet to talk to Artemis. What was their next move to be? Is staying in Hyrule the best option for them?

"Please stay here with me tonight my love, I need you near me..." she said softly, the forethought of him disappearing forever weighing heavily on her mind. She refused to let go, as if he would vanish the mere moment she did.

[break]Calmness consumed the King as he became still in her arms, a sudden ease of his worries putting him in a relaxed and placid state. His breathing had dropped from its heavy gasps to a light murmur, before his arms wrapped around the princess once more, and his chin became rested to her shoulder. His nose had buried into her auburn hair, her scent giving him comfort.
[break][break]
She had accepted his request, and he didn't know why he was as surprised as he was. He was sure she'd deny it and say it were too soon. He let out a small laugh, a mere squeak from his weakened voice as his fingers traced the small of her back. Despite all the fear and stress that weighed down on him, he felt as though it had all disappeared in that moment. Even the pain had stifled.
[break][break]
"I'm not going anywhere," he promised. "I-I want to stay, but I need to see the doctor still..."
[break][break]
He looked about the room for a moment, possibly for a rag, or some kind of bandaging material. He was feeling more light headed with every hour that passed, and with his bandage removed, the blood began to seep through his robes and into Kura's gown. He pursed his lips for a moment before pulling back to watch his lover carefully.
[break][break]
"I don't know where the doctor is located, so please come with me?"

[Kura Hyrule †]

Break Me, Hate Me, Let me feel as hurt as you,
But promise me you will never let us go,
Save Me

As if she suddenly had an epiphany, the young woman gasped, her mind returning to the fact, --that he was slowly bleeding out. It was just earlier that she had screamed out for help, and she found it strange that no one had heard or came to assist her. Biting on her bottom lip, Kura nodded and stood, offering her hands to help him up.

"Can you stand? Can you walk?"

Would it really be a good idea for him to walk?

Kura sighed, her hands moving to the top of his tunic, "Take it off. I will bring the medic here. You are too awful to walk... Please just stay here," she said, the pads of her feet already crossing the distance to the door. Eyes looked back, her stomach dropping into a deep pit of uneasiness. The sight of him, bloody and weathered, was it an omen of what was to come for them?

Stepping out of the room she ran as fast as she could, hair trailing behind her as the fires of the infirmary illuminated the dark of the ruined castle. In between pants she was able to direct him, getting the medics attention and urging for his help. She didn't know him personally, other than the fact that he treated her, --and her sister, but that didn't stop the pleading expression she had.

"Please hurry!" she cried out, the man more worried about her own appearance rather than the words that came out of her mouth.

She was gone for mere minutes, bursting through the door to her room, hoping to see Perseus still standing there and conscious. The medic quickly trailing after her, his own breath ragged from running across the castle behind the princess.

Boy, was he tired. And his eyelids were becoming heavier and heavier with every second passed. But Kura was quick to try and find a solution for his wound, giving up on the idea of bringing him to the medic before ripping at the tunic that covered his torso. Helping shake the baggy, ripping clothes from his upper body, he let out a grunt in pain from the exposed wound hitting the cold air surrounding them, as his hand immediately pressed into his side to protect the open cut.
[break][break]
"Damn it, Hylia - I'm going to kill that psycho for toying with us like animals..." he growled through his clenched teeth, looking up to his princess who was already running to the door. She pleaded him to stay put, and he nodded as she disappeared from his vision. As time passed, he found it harder to sit up straight, slowly dragging himself to the edge of her bed as he pressed his weight into the foot-board.
[break][break]
When Kura had returned, a doctor had followed, and he had immediately hovered over the broken King to see what damage had been done. His eyes were uneasy, almost as though he was worried for the look on how fresh this wound was, and Percy immediately sprung to look down at it. "How bad is it? Just tell me!"
[break][break]
The medic began to stutter, unsure of how to answer at first, as his hands slowly peeled away at the broken skin. "It's--I mean..." he bumbled out before looking to the princess carefully. "It's been exposed for a long time. It might be infected. We need to cut out the dead flesh immediately, but I don't think we have..." he looked back down, looking through his pockets at the various vials of liquid that were labeled with tiny letters. "It's going to hurt. That's all I can say. We used up the last of the pain elixirs on the others that you returned with."
[break][break]
Silence fell over them for a moment, and Perseus knew what that meant. Either he was going to die a slow and painful death, or he would live, but have to feel every single cut into his flesh again. He took a deep breath, his nerves unsettling once more as his mouth became dry. "R-right now then?" As the doctor gave a morbid, Perseus shuddered under his breath before taking his hand up to his forehead, wiping the sweat. "Someone please get me a rag to bite on..."

Stepping aside, she watched the Doctor give his quick examination. Uneasiness crept from her stomach up to her mouth, tasting like bile and stinging the back of her throat. Her concerned expression never faded, her frame hovering just a few steps from them to gaze at the medic do his work. The exposed wound came into view, red burning flesh and thick dark stained coagulation that made her sick from imagining the pain he endured.

"C-cut!?" she exclaimed, the horror of his situation becoming her knowledge. She bit on her bottom lip, uselessness muddying her mind. She couldn't help him, and began to fret the next coming moments. Walking to the tall wooden cupboard in her room, she removed several towels. They were fresh, white and clean, --and were about to be colored red of ichor.

"I...I-'ll g-go fetc-h some hot water...." Stuttered words as she turned to leave for another moment, "Lay down and I'll return quickly," she asked, glancing to her king, urging him to lay down in her bed. This was to be a long evening.

Upon returning, she brought a basin of steaming water, setting that on the oak table beside her bed. Iris's cast down upon his body as she stood beside the medic, her hands reaching for a towel to soak it in the water, while handing another to the King so that he may use it as he wished.

The doctor reached in his brought bag for several tools that he would use, they were metallic and shimmered silver, and kept pristine for a job such as this. It was scalpel that he took up, and instantly Kura broke down into tears. Percy's pain, she would share it with him, grasping his hand tightly. "I am here... I am here," she whispered to him quietly, her other hand wiping away his silver bangs from his skin. He was already burning in temperature, and they had yet to even start. He was scared, she could feel that.

She was scared too.

Eyes closed and stinging cheeks, she waited for the sounds of the first cut.

He knew the risks of what would follow, should any mistakes be made or if they waited too long - but at this point, they had no choice than to pick away at the dead skin and hope it would help. Without any pain numbing medications or potions, this was going to prove to be one of the bigger hardships that Percy would deal with in his entire life.
[break][break]
Goddesses help him. He was afraid of the idea of the pain, rather than the actuality of it. He had no idea what to expect, but he knew it wasn't going to be enjoyable. As Kura had returned with a basin of water, he took one of the rags from it hastily, running it over his persperated cheeks that were flushed to all hell. The doctor was digging into his utility bag, and he took a deep breath, Kura's hands gently running over his flesh and hair, calming him for a moment.
[break][break]
As the doctor lifted his hand from the bag, holding a metal scalpel pointed for the would directly, Perseus immediately chomped down on the washcloth, both hands gripped to each end of it. He didn't want to hold Kura's hand, or any part of her, afraid that he may hurt her if the pain is too much to bear.
[break][break]
With the first cut against his skin, Perseus nearly flew back toward the bed behind him, groaning loudly as he tried to contain his agony and sit in place, while the doctor pushed harder into his torso to keep him still. He cut further, slicing some of the blackened flesh off before wiping the blood that spilled from his side quickly before continuing his work.
[break][break]
Perseus was groaning loudly, his teeth nearly biting the rag in half as he let out rough whimpers with every movement of the blade. Tears fell down his cheekbones as he let out one final cry in protest, but the doctor had quickly flung his blade back, wiping at the would quickly before grabbing some stitching. "It's done. It's all gone. We need to clean it, sew it up, and then bandage it."
[break][break]
Immediately, the doctor got to work, sterilizing the wound and bandaging it up carefully after stitching. Cleaning the blood and removing the clothes from the weakened King, he had brought a fresh pair of robes to change into before turning to the princess - realizing it may be inappropriate for her to witness such humility. "Shall I take him to the infirmary, or..."
[break][break]
"I'm staying here," he snapped, his voice becoming slurred in exhaustion. "Please leave us," he huffed out, before attempting to drag himself toward the bed slowly. The doctor looked at him nervously before jolting to help him forward. "Please keep an eye on him then if this is where he is staying. Don't let him move around. He should be left to rest for at least a week."

It was as horrific as she imagined.

The howls of his pain echoed in the chamber, ringing in her ears as she stood there in her inability to save him. Her mind screamed out, muscles wanting to reach for the doctor to make him stop, but her willpower kept her still. "...courage my love..." she whispered to him, fingers brushing back the sweat drenched hair from his face.

The man was fast, making the experience less dragged out than it needed to be, --thank the goddesses, and he was being stitched promptly. Hands shaked as they reached out, taking Percy's as soon as he was bandaged. She was there to help him back, letting him relax against the cushioned comfort she laid in prior.

Carefully she aided him in changing his garments, noting that the man had brought him spare clothes as a precaution. She felt relief that they had someone such as him in their camp, and knew that they were in good hands should they suffer some losses. Looking back, she gave the doctor a swift nod as he made his exit, "I will look after him, thank you sir, thank you."

Closing the mahogany door behind him, she sighed heavily before weary eyes glanced back to see the weakened King laying upon the bed. Barefeet softly crept across the floor as she carried herself to his side, taking his hand into her own and trying her best not to appear stressed or disheartened. He was being strong, strong for her sake, and she couldn't break down in front of him right here and now. The only thing she wanted was to reassure him that she was here, fingers grasping at his cold and clammy hand as his body shook from exhaustion.

With a quaint smile met his gaze, repeatedly brushing her hand over his in a delicate motion. She knew that he would not be able to sleep, the pain probably being quite unbearable despite the applied medicine. So after a few moments of silence she inhaled, her lips parting slightly to speak to him in a hushed and comforting tone, "So tell me my King. Tell me of our wedding. Grand or small? Where at? What color of flower shall I be matching?"

To anyone else these questions may seem meaningless, or ill-proper to the time, but Perseus was a romantic and rather sentimental. It was the type of conversation that some of his true colors would shine, and that is what she yearned to see.

Changed into his clothes, the young king huffed loudly as he slumped oto the bed. The princess had followed the doctor to the door, closing it behind him cautiously before he slowly allowed his weight to shift further into the mattress, laying down carefully. He closed his eyes, trying to discount the pain from his mind.
[break][break]
fingers laced with his hands, and his eyes opened narrowly to glance at the worried princess's gaze. A smile painted over the apprehension and he tried to return the favor, but the pain was exhaustive. His eyes shut once more, resting to try and find words so she wouldn't be left in silence.
[break][break]
She spoke of the wedding, and his eyes opened up again. "Hmm?" His mind lingered on each of the questions carefully; what would their wedding be like? In his haste to be hers forever, and the impending fear of what would be of the future, he didn't think of such things. He only knew he wanted it as soon as possible.
[break][break]
Did Zelda even know? Did Artemis? Had she told her family of this at all? He lingered on the depth of what would be of a wedding in such short notice. He would have wanted for them to be wed as soon as he was healed. But with the meeting back at the Castle approaching...
[break][break]
"I will leave the details to you, my lady. It is your family whom I assume would be invited on your side. I have no family of my own, though I'm sure Labrynna would wish to witness the event in the palace... what do you think?"
[break][break]
Personally, the idea of the entire country watching him kiss his queen was stressful. With no real family there to observe the event, was it necessary for the whole kingdom to proside? He would leave that to her. If she wanted it big, he'd give the space of their ceremony no bounds.

As he pondered the subject, Kura released his hand and walked around the bed frame to the other side, opening her wardrobe to bring out another gown that was not currently painted with red ichor. After tearing off the previous one, she replaced it, pulling her long hair out from the collar and slipping into the bed next to him as carefully as she could. She wanted to be by his side as he battled the pain through the night, having a slight hope that he would find rest with how exhausted he was.

"I would love to have it in Labrynna," she answered, the excitement of visiting his palace coursed through her as she imagined in her mind the night they confessed to one another. Though, she had not thought of talking to her family about the circumstances yet.

She laughed softly before resting her hand on his chest, the soft drum of his heart throbbing against her fingertips. "Something tells me that Esme will not let me go without inviting half the kingdom," she spoke, mostly to herself, but enough so he could hear.

"I haven't told them yet... I was hoping to find a correct time to do so, and with the events, and Zelda -- being in her state, it will have to wait a little bit longer," she said, knowing that Perseus wanted to be wed as soon as possible, though she desired for her sister to be there. "-- I imagine that my family has a bit of a resentment towards weddings now," she joked, referring to the obscene events that correlated during her sisters 'Wedding'.
