The reception began on the grounds of Finaqua. Since there were too many guests to put up tents, tables were set up on the lawn with the Bride and Groom at the center table.

As everyone processed down to the field, DG and Cain couldn't take their eyes off each other. They took their place at their table but paid no attention to anyone else.

"We're married," DG whispered.

"I know, I can hardly believe it." He smiled and moved to kiss her, but was interrupted by Azkadellia.

"Hey you two," Azkadellia leaned over. " I realize you haven't seen each other all day, but something tells me your guests would like to see you too." Azkadellia smiled and DG turned her head to see a line of guests waiting for an audience with them. DG blushed and Cain laughed, putting his arm on the back of her chair.

"Your Highness," A woman approached, bowing. "May I present you with jade combs for your hair, in honor of your marriage?" She handed the combs to DG who gasped.

"Thank you." DG was almost speechless. Guest after guest presented gifts to the couple and were it not for Azkadellia magically moving the gifts to their room, the table would've been covered. Last came the wedding party. Idina and Shoshanna stood up and came around the table wheeling something. It was a baby crib. DG was shocked, and so were the guests.

"Idina, Shoshanna, I'm NOT pregnant!" She hissed.

"We know you're not pregnant," Idina practically shouted to reassure the guests who seemed to let out a collective sigh. "But we thought it might come in handy someday… soon." DG did have to admit that the crib was beautiful, but she was also in shock.

"Thank you," Cain managed for her and she smiled, finally. The two aunts nodded and smiled at Cain. Next came Raw who presented them with a little bottle of healing serum.

"For when Raw not around," He smiled and DG stood up to hug him. Cain offered him a handshake. Next, Azkadellia and Ambrose both stood up.

"We put this together… together." Azkadellia whispered. Ambrose nodded and smiled. The both held boxes, which they set in front of DG and Cain. DG didn't know what to expect. She slowly opened her box as Cain opened his and revealed the most beautiful clothing either had ever seen.

"Now, I know you can make your own clothing and all that and you don't even have to wear it if you don't want to… But we thought you might like to see what Grandma Dorothy wore with her husband at their coronation." Azkadellia smiled and DG's jaw dropped.

"Az… Glitch… These are beautiful. Thank you." She looked at Cain and smiled.

"They're perfect," Cain smiled in agreement. Azkadellia and Ambrose exchanged a knowing smile and they retook their seats at the table. Jeb stood up and brought a tiny box.

"My apologies father, but the gift I bear is for the woman I might call mother, were it not for the fact that I call her friend." Jeb bowed to DG and handed her a very small box. DG was quite surprised by the generous move. She opened the box, which contained a small bracelet. It bore only one charm: a small coin.

"What is it?" DG asked.

"See the insignia on the face?" Cain whispered and DG nodded. "It's the symbol for respect in the ancient runes." DG felt her eyes begin to burn. She stood up and hugged Jeb.

"Were I older, I would be glad to call you son," She whispered and kissed his cheek. Cain too stood and hugged his son. Cain helped DG latch the bracelet and she gave him a sweet kiss.

"One more gift," The Queen and Prince Consort approached, each bearing an Ozian falcon.

"A pair of falcons, we present to you," Ahamo said, smiling.

"Why falcons?" Cain asked.

"Falcons are the Royal icon for a prosperous reign. Every royal couple that received a pair of falcons on their wedding day saw peace for their entire reign." DG prattled off. Her studies had paid off. DG took the glove from her mother and slipped it over arm, holding her arm out for the majestic falcon her mother held. Cain was more wary.

"They are gentle," The Queen reassured him and he took his own falcon from Ahamo.

"What are their names?" DG asked, petting the beautiful head of her falcon.

"She is called Pip, he Sy." Ahamo smiled.

"Let's see if they fly as well as their wings suggest." DG smiled at Cain who nodded. They both dropped their arms slightly, signaling to the birds that they were to ready themselves. With a sweeping motion, they released the birds into the air and the guests all gasped at the magnificent sight of the two birds soaring against the sky.
