Chapter 225 (2/2)

ANIMAL had the sphinx pa.s.sed out in a corner, after brus.h.i.+ng her fur and scratching all the hard to reach spots .

Brandon and Sara, who had just gotten married themselves, were enjoying the opportunity to dance on the dance floor, and enjoying the delicious food .

LIFE dragged Theon, the head of the Necromancy college, over to NECROMANCY, to dance with her, and she blushed all the way to her little pointed ears . Theon didn't even mind her tiny little fangs .

Darek, the head of the elemental college, was spotted dancing with several of the chibis, throughout the night .

FIRE only had eyes for Selena, and soon had her stolen away from the dwarves to have all to himself on the dance floor . For some reason, his chibi grew to a proper size for that dance .

Nancy, from the making/breaking college, had to repet.i.tively turn down the dwarves that trickled over to her . They were too drunk to understand that she wasn't interested in dwarves, despite their obvious superior qualities .

Tekaun was seen having an arm-wrestling match, at one point, with the dwarven king, though the results of the match were lost among the dwarven gambling that tried to get started . The dwarven queen quickly put a stop to it, and they all scattered .

The rest of the people who were attending were made up of the other heads of the colleges and their seconds . They intermingled with each other, dancing occasionally, and generally having a blast .

Clean up afterwards was simple, as Joseph merely snapped his fingers, for the dramatic effect, of course, then began the arduous task of teleporting everyone home . It wasn't really that difficult for him, but they all understood the sentiment . The dwarves were pa.s.sed out on the floor, and he thought about curing the blood poisoning they were suffering from before sending them back, but the dwarven queen a.s.sured him that they would all be fine .

Stella made sure her sphinx made it home, and that all of the remaining food was stored safely in her purse, especially the cake .

The chibis of the rune's manifested forms disappeared as they all returned to their home realms, and soon, the clearing that had held all of the party members was clear of any sign they had ever been there .

Joseph bowed to the world tree, thanking her for the use of her realm for his wedding, but she seemed to be too tired after blooming to respond, which greatly amused him . He couldn't wait to see what kind of elves would start appearing in the next generation .

As he jumped back, he watched Stella laughing with Stu, his parents, her mother, and Selena, from a corner of the kitchen, as they all discussed what she planned to do with all of the leftover food from the party . This was the happiest that he had ever seen her . She didn't even seem to mind being with her mom, as she almost danced around the kitchen, telling them about the fun of surprising everyone with the fey wedding dance, and the fey trick of hiding her dress inside the armor .

The smile on his lips wilted a little as he knew the coming fights were going to be hard . Joe seemed to poke him in the ribs, and told him to stop trying to ruin the moment . Stella was smiling, and that was all they needed .
