Chapter 132: Before Marriage

The marriage between the two families has been negotiated, and the wedding is scheduled to take place at the beginning of the next month, in the vestibule outside the Tower of Daylight. Now, the entire people of the City of Sunshine are putting up their lights to prepare for the wedding of their lord, and the town hall led by Quirlintis is even more busy, and every elf who deals with the city is overwhelmed by the endless list of names and gifts.

Nacai, which is also one of the important activities before marriage, is usually carried out after the wedding is confirmed, that is, we call engagement, marriage, the procedure depends on the family situation, and the close relatives of the Cabolon family and the Windranger family generally have to participate in the Nacai ceremony. It is also necessary to deliberate and decide to invite some famous, influential, and respected elves to the wedding. During the ceremony, the Windranger family will announce the dowry, as well as details such as the time, place, and arrangements for the wedding.

As soon as the news of Patrick's marriage was announced, the entire Cabolon family and the City of Daylight received countless family gift lists, and Patrick did not know the situation of the Carbolon family, but now the city hall of the City of Daylight has been flooded with names and gift lists, but Patrick can imagine that the Carbolon family is now too busy.

Patrick returns to the Tower of Daylight, and the old butler of the Windranger family arrives in the City of Daylight, and before he even enters the city, he is amazed by the magnificent floating city.

"In the grand floating city, there are still some mage apprentices underneath who are practicing arcane techniques to make up for the damage to the earth." The old butler secretly affirmed in his heart. "With vast wheat fields, endless streams of elves, and endless caravans, the City of Sunshine is indeed extremely prosperous."

The accompanying elves also came to this city of sunlight for the first time, and the feeling of seeing the mountains in the sky, as well as the sense of superiority of looking down on the elves below and the faint superiority, left a heavy mark in the hearts of all the elves who had just come to the city of sunlight.

Quel'Salas has never lacked mages, looking at the mages sweating outside, and the farmers busy in the wheat fields, the steward of the Windranger family kept sighing, this new city in the land of ghosts may be as prosperous as Silvermoon City in the future.

The marriage customs of the High Elf Kingdom are very troublesome, in addition to the fact that both fathers agree to hold a wedding, they also need to "go on a blind date", but the customs of Quel'Thalas also need to inspect the wedding location, wedding arrangements, residential courtyards and other things, which even the great nobles will not be exempt from customs, which is one of the processes that must be followed in the wedding.

The love of the high elves is not easy to come by, the long life makes all the newlyweds of the high elves regard each other as soul mates, the two elves love each other to know each other, know each other to accompany each other, this takes a long process, many elf couples even if they haven't seen each other for decades after marriage, the relationship will not become rusty, of course, in addition to those dewy couples who play outside at will, those just don't seek to be motivated, kill time at will, and do something to relieve boredom.

The real nobles, especially the descendants of the lineage, do not have such a free life, and from an early age, they have to constantly learn social etiquette, talents, as well as the so-called sub-professions, alchemy, enchantment, tailoring, and so on.

Of course, the most versatile professions in Quel'Thalas------ spellcaster and ranger are also one of the essential courses, only a small number of elves in Quel'Thalas will switch to priests, stalkers and other professions, and most of the high elves are mages and rangers in the direction of career selection.

In terms of spouses, the high-level clans are extremely cautious in their choices, and they don't play casually like ordinary elves, and they are tired of finding a suitable elf to marry, and then the two make do.

For those large spellcaster families, the spouse casting talent is very important, because it is related to the talent ability of the next generation, as the arcane kingdom of Quel'Thalas, the high-level clans want to ensure that their family's interests are not lost, continue to maintain a superior position in Silvermoon City, and let a top spellcaster in the family take over, this is the easiest and fastest way.

Patrick also knows that in the previous life, those countries with monarchy and aristocracy, although they called on the people to be free and let them do what they want at the age when they should learn the most, but the descendants of their own families all began to learn all kinds of etiquette, art, language, etc. from an early age, so that when they reach adulthood, the gap in level and ability can be directly reflected.

The most straightforward embodiment of this is that Trump and the crown princes of the royal family, who are learning other languages at a few years old, and when the free people are playing, they don't have time to be idle, and they are all working overtime to learn the things that they say do not meet the standards of "freedom". Those aristocrats are probably also using this method to keep their families forever in a transcendent position and a monopoly in society. The solidification and monopoly of this class is exactly the same as the current Silver Moon City.

Regarding the marriage customs of Silvermoon City, Patrick has no idea to change it, and he follows the process step by step, changing those customs that the people follow at will, which will be rejected by everyone, Patrick doesn't want to become the target of public criticism and become the talk of all elves after dinner.

As a member of the council, King Anastarian will act as a witness to the marriage of Patrick and Aurelia, and the royal family must show goodwill to all the elves who are actually in power in Quel'Thalas, which is one of the usual ways for the royal family to maintain the stability of Quel'Thalas, and for the royal family, consolidating their royal power is an essential political measure.

Even back then, Darth Rema only retained the control of the Well of the Sun, and let the administrative power of Quel'Thalas be divided among the other high-ranking clans in the form of a council, which is also meaningful. After all, no matter how infighting the parliament is, the sunwell as the core will not be affected, the foundation of the country will not be shaken, and the kingship of the sun will never be lost.

Patrick didn't care about these things, just follow the rules. Now that the Second War has broken out, the Council has received the battle report from Lordaeron, and the Horde army has arrived in Hinterland, preparing to attack the city of Eagle's Nest of the Brute Hammer Dwarves, according to the history in memory, the next step will be to reach Quel'Thalas, and the tribe with the Red Dragon Knights will fight directly near the Golden Branch Valley, and then retreat and attack the royal city of Lordaeron.

History is getting closer and closer, Patrick has already felt the coming storm, and in the future, he can only do his part,
