[@KatherinWinter][@Polaris North]  Kiadi walked into the room Cassandra was waiting in shortly after Fred had prepared her.  [color=00aeef]"There you are, dear.  Are you ready?"[/color] the old man asked.  He was fairly tall with a long face with a white goatee.  His hair was the same silvery white, tied in a short ponytail behind his gead.  Cassandra smiled and hugged her mentor.  [color=598527]"I am now that you're here, master."[/color]  She put her arm into his, waiting by the door until they were both fully prepared.  Kiadi coughed into his free elbow, the sound of it being harsh and sickly.  It worried Cassandra because he sounded much worse than he was the last time they saw one another.  [color=00aeef]"I have been waiting for this day for quite some time, Cassandra.  Ever since you were a little girl, I've wanted to see you get married.  Of course, I always thought it would be with Duniva, though I'm happy either way.  You've fulfilled this old man's final wish, Cassandra. Thank you."[/color] Cassandra smiled brightly and kissed Kiadi on the cheek.  [color=598527]"I'm happy you're here, too, master.  Are you ready?"[/color]  Kiadi nodded with a soft smile.  Cassandra's heart skipped a beat as she heard the music starting up.  The one thing she was worried about at this point were Antonio's children.  They were both young and quite rambunctious, especially in crowded rooms.
