I will post soon-ish. I have an idea... so, Zane will be trading in Drakka after this, but I wonder if it'd be ok for him to try and stay with Nadia or to have followed her carriage to Shadow Worth so they say goodbye there, and maybe Zane could meet her Husband-to-be? Is there any rule against other Gems going to the choosing?

I guess there's nothing stopping Zane from following Nadia to Shadow Worth, but he probably wouldn't be allowed into the castle and forced away. I guess you could have a heartbreaking scene where they're torn from each other at the gates or something, but it doesn't seem plausible to me to have a male gem (or any gem not Reaped) around for the claiming. :/ Maybe he'll hang around the castle and catch a glimpse of her husband when they leave for his holding, but that won't be until the next day, as everyone spends the night at Shadow Worth before leaving. 

Drakken are assholes, man.
