~Theselak Rising.~

(Closed to Cerna WILL contain erotic content. Thank you. Continues after the events of: ~Theselak Forged~ )

One year later...

Theselak was booming.

The Undead quietly increased their numbers as the overall forces grew in power and influence.

Nosdyn was pacing back and forth that day, he was nervous.

That day on the exact year he had sent the letter to his friend and ally, Crux over in Stonevale, Cerna and Nosdyn were to wed officially.

Nosdyn wanted Crux himself to oversee the ceremonies and overall procedure of the wedding.

He was waiting for the arrival of his old friend Crux that day the journey from Stonevale was a few weeks on a hard ride.

He could see the horses already on their way after the fifth hour that day.

It was a Thursday...

Nosdyn and his ally, Crux had shared many letters and documents since that first letter.

The hot wind came in from the west. Nosdyn's clothing was rippling in the breeze. His eyes narrowed as he watched Crux's approach. His eyes started to dart around. They had enemies on two fronts, N'Jal had recently started to stir anew, and, that new enemy the orcish king named Aranor....

He was trying to be extra careful with Crux's safety...

He had his arms folded across his massive chest. He was waiting for Crux to arrive and his mate, Cerna, stood by his side. He held her closely and observed Crux's group of horses on the horizon....

They were almost there at that point.

Cerna smiles as her pet bat Fang led the Caravan to them. She stood at her Soon-To-Be-Husband's side and looks toward him with a light smile "You nervous love? This is a special occasion after all" She asked as she stood closer to him, Her tail around his thigh. She was admittedly a little nervous herself. She had never gotten a chance to marry in her mortal life, and even in Undeath, she couldn't help but be a little nervous.

Much of Cerna's afterlife was spent as a tool of war. So She was always aggressive to strangers or enemies. Some things will never leave her, But she Knows allies when she sees them. Crux and his caravan is no exception. Although Cerna has many Skeletons in her closet from her time with Aranor, She is unworried. After all, She has the wards in place to protect her from external control.

Nosdyn growled softly with pleasure once she wrapped her tail around him.

He wrapped his arm around her and held her as close as he could.

His eyes were narrowed making sure that nothing threatened his friend's approach. There were five horses all together in Crux's group.

He let the question that Cerna asked linger between them for a minute longer. He looked at her and nodded. "Yeah." He began. "I'm a little nervous I don't know the Stonevale ceremonies and I don't want to mess anything up." He chuckled. "But with you by my side we should be all right." He told her confidentaly.

A short while after Crux arrived. Crux was much older of a human at that point and he had silver coloured long hair. He walked up to Nosdyn and hugged his old friend and his wife. "Good to see you both in good spirits." He said to Nosdyn gently.

Nosdyn nodded. "And you my old friend." He looked at Crux's escort gently. "You all will be treated well while you are here in Theselak." Nosdyn promised them. "As you have requested in regards to the ceremony in question, we have prepared suitable space and a building for the events." He promised. "All will go smooth as possible." He was in fact, quite nervous.

Crux must have seen that and nodded. "All will be well Nosdyn and Cerna the procedure and ceremony are relatively simple enough. And we w will stay a while to get to know you and your people." Crux said calmly.

Nosdyn nodded as they walked to his house. "Follow me to my place."

Cerna nods And perches Fang on her arm as she walked with Nosdyn to their house "I should thank you personally, Crux. The wards you placed have saved my afterlife on multiple occasions" She smiles at Crux as she walked alongside Nosdyn.

Crux and his companions stay close to Cerna and Nosdyn. Crux and his group were priests of Stonevale so naturally they did not yet fully trust Nosdyn's undead. Crux turned his attention towards Cerna. "Nosdyn is an old friend of mine. He saved my life too many times to count during my early studies so I am glad I was able to return the favor." He had a small smile on his jovial face.

They finally arrived at Nosdyn's large house. Nosdyn looked around for a moment and then turned his attention to Crux and his companions. "Here is my house. You folks are welcome to stay here while you're here." He told them. "Cerna, I am going to get dinner ready." He said and opened the front doors to the house.

Crux noticed there was no need for keys and he raised his eyebrow at that. "You don't lock your doors, Lord Nosdyn?" Crux asked kindly.

Nosdyn shook his head no. "No. This is a safe place for all." He said calmly. "As long as my people are respected."

Crux nodded. "Very good." He looked at Cerna. "You're very lucky to have tamed Nosdyn." He told Cerna, giving her his blessing. "His heart was in flux for a long time." Crux told Cerna. "I've known your mate for many years now."

Cerna chuckles "We tamed each other is more like it, Crux" She again gave a chuckle as Fang chirped at her "Though i can't say our trials to keep this land a safe haven are over just yet. We've had a few clashes with my former king more then once already. the most recent being just last year"

Crux nodded as they enter Nosdyn's house. "It seems our world is fill with strike and war." He began. "But it gives me hope that you two have each other and are strongly bound to one another." He said calmly. He looked at Nosdyn gently. "I trust you have good drink and food here, I'm parched after all Tular Plains are a hot place..." He raised his eyebrows saying that part of it.

Nosdyn nodded. "I have drink for us all. Nothing too fancy or vintage, but some ale yes." Nosdyn chuckled. He went to go gather food and drink for them from the cooking area, the kitchen. He gathered a large serving of stuff for them all. He placed everything at their table. "Help yourselves to good food. Tular Plains cooking." He chuckled. "Hope you lovely folks enjoy." He felt uncomfortable, he was not the most social animals, but he was trying for Cerna's sake.

He folded his arms across his chest indicating he was nervous. He looked at Crux. "Try the ale, I think you will like it Crux."

Cerna smiles and wraps her tail around his leg to calm him "Calm Down my dear Nosdyn. we're among friends here" She smiles

Nos was feeling extremely nervous but her presence was helping keep him centered. He wrapped a large arm around her and pulled her close. Nodding gently he took a deep breath and attempted to calm down. He wasn't pissed or anything like that, it was just nerves that made him extremely uncomfortable. He was having a distinct feeling of dejavu, like he'd been through that same exact thing once before in Ettermire herself. He sighed for a moment as he attempted to shrug off the ghosts of his past...

Centering his mind proved a useful trick at that point. "We have several bedrooms here in my house Crux." Nosdyn began. "Feel free to sleep anywhere you folks choose to." He let them know that part of the bargain and sighed after. "I'm getting a little tired it's been a day folks. We'll start the prep work for the ceremonies later this week." Nosdyn explained. "There is no rush and I want you folks to enjoy your stay here anyway." Nosdyn said calmly. He looked at his wife. "Come my love let's get some rest." He knew Cerna never slept, and neither did he. He had other hunger and desires though and he just needed to rest a bit and relax his nerves...

Cerna nods and smiles at Nosdyn before going with him to their chambers

Nosdyn smiled and picked his woman up.

He took her himself to their bedroom. He always did enjoy their closeness. Once they were done interacting with Crux and the others he sighed with relief. He wasn't the most social of people and he was trying really hard for Cerna' sake. He placed her on their bed gently. And smiled at her calmly sitting next to her.

"Gods that was...rough." He said to her calmly. He shook his head but he was glad that his friend and his people had made it to their city safely and without incident. There was always too much at stake and he did not want an international incident on his hands. He'd already had too many skeletons in his closet. He held her hand gently breathing softly...he needed a moment or two to relax himself....

Cerna smiles and wraps her tail around his leg gently, Massaging it to help him calm his nerves

He nodded at her, his mood was not sour or anything but he was nervous and that was a feeling he did not like.

He wrapped an arm around his woman and pulled her close to his hot and warm body. He noticed her warmth and smiled. The secret technique had worked wonders on Cerna...he kissed her deeply.

"Thank you my love." He told her gently, and placed her on his lap.

"I am still very nervous, the socializing aspect of this was always very difficult for me." He explained as he held her close...

Cerna smiles and kisses him deeply "I am well aware. Honestly it's no easier for me... But you are doing well my dear" She said as she kissed him

Fang trills eagerly as he once again teased Cerna earning a chuckle from the undead Draenei "Oh hush Fang"

Nosdyn eagerly kissed his woman back...with hunger that was undending.

His hands, large in nature, rested on the small of her back.

He kissed her lovingly for a good while. "My love...we have too many clothing on." He said with a chuckle. He got up and took off his and her own clothing and armour placing everything gently to the side. He admire her skyclad body for a few minutes and returned her to his lap.

He wrapped his arms around her calmly...

She purrs and kisses him more as she made love to him. She wrapped her tail around his leg and purrs

"You know with Fang being my pet, he's gonna tease us all the time now. Better get used to it love" She chuckles

"I helped breed an entire generation of this age's undead. Distractions or no we will be fine my love." He chuckled he didnt mind their little one's, Fang's constant noises. He'd been through much much worse...he wrapped his arms around her firmly.

He kissed her deeply.

His large hands firmly on her ass. "Why don't you put that lovely tail in me?" He suddenly asked with a sly wink. He was feeling bold and adventurous that night. His erection already inside of his woman...she sat on him and had easy access to him...

She blushes and smiles slipping her tail inside of him with a soft moan "You mean like this?
She smirks as she watched her man's reaction

Feeling his woman slide her tail inside of his tight anus, he held her close and growled with pleasure. "Yes...like that my love." He felt extremely good with her inside of him as well.

He opened his legs a little for her as well.

His hands still massaged her lovely ass, he reciprocated and put two large fingers in her ass as well.

He held her closely the entire time, still grinding his powerful hips against her own. His thick erection sensitive in her tightness...

She moans in pleasure and purrs. She was enjoying the pleasure he brought her. "Don't stop, love" She purred out

He knew what his woman liked and needed, and she knew him as well.

Feeling his woman deep inside of him made him moan with pleasure.

He held her very close his hand gripping her ass firmly.

Kissing her deeply, he sucked on her tongue gently.

His hand massaging her ass lovingly and erotically.

He held her close as he could as they made love. "Push yourself all the way inside me love." He said to his woman...

Cerna smiles and kisses him deeply as she took him that night She pushed herself in entirely at his request, her body shuddering in pleasure

He enjoyed every moment of his woman deep inside of him, just as he was inside of her...

He growled and panted with pleasure as he held her close to him. They made love to one another. About an hour or two later, Nosdyn blasted his liquid hot seed deeply into her undead womb once more. He kissed her deeply as he filled her...

His hands greedily grabbed at her ass massaging it with hunger.

As he filled her up, his own seed slid down his shaft. He called out her name..."Cerna..." He panted with sublime pleasure. His hands grabbing at her ass with hunger. After he filled her up, he picked her up and laid her gently in their bed. Her tail felt good inside him, damn good. "More." He told his woman...

Cerna smiles and kisses him deeply as she made love to him more, Her tail pushing in deeper, bit only as far as the jewelry on her tail was, she didn't want to give him any kind of metal poisoning while they were making love

The pleasure he felt he was sublime.

She expertly pushed her tail deep within him. He growled and moaned with tremendous pleasure. He held his woman closely, kissing her deeply and hungrily. His hands massaging her lower back gently. He sucked on her tongue gently as they kissed lovingly.

His large hand continued to massage her ass firmly. Squeezing periodically with the pure lust he held for his woman...

He filled her undead with a lot of hot seed that night. Making sure she was filled completely. He growled and moaned for her loudly...

Cerna smiles and kisses him deeply as she made love to him more and more. She growled with pleasure as he filled her up

His large arms were wrapped firmly around his woman. He held her closely.

He knew that soon they would be wed...it was what he wanted more than anything. His hand massaged the small of her back very gently.. He held his woman closely. He enjoyed their closeness, and he enjoyed her tail inside of him.

He was moaning with pleasire/

As they took each other, the nerves of the wedding and it's ceremony filled him with partial fear...but it was slowly melting away. He kissed her deeply keeping himself insde of his woman....

Cerna smiles back Kissing Him Lovingly as she took him, Making Love as she Did So

A couple days later...

Nosdyn was pacing back and forth that day. He was listening to Crux's instructions on the wedding ceremony.

Never had Nosdyn wanted to get everything right for Cerna's sake as he had wanted to get their wedding right. He went over the ceremony precepts making sure that he memorized everything. Crux gave Nosdyn the notes for the ceremony on hand, documentation, scrolls and parchments. A large volume of text that Nosdyn had to memorize.

He was following a traditional Stonevale wedding rites, he didn't want to offend his old friend and his people. So he was trying extremely hard knowing full well Cerna, in a separate locations of the wedding grounds, was learning her part of the rites. Nosdyn needed a break a few hours later, his head hurt and he had rapidly consumed all of the information he needed to know. He looked at his old friend Crux. "Like that yes?" Nosdyn asked of the particular steps of the rites.

Crux nodded. "Yes. Exactly like that, you're doing quite well Nosdyn." Crux complimented the old demon.

Nosdyn sighed with concentration. "Thank the Thayne." Nosdyn said. "Can we take a break now? My head actually hurts."

"Study that last part of the rite. To appease Lady Y'edda that is when you must get the rites exactly correct my pupil." Crux said. "Yes, study that portion of the ceremony everything must be done exactly correct."

Nosdyn nodded. "I will not fail."

Cerna was studying the rites as well although she herself was incredibly nervous. Which was beginning to show as she saw Xelldra come over. Xelldra was one of her best friends ever since she came to this world and saw her through some pretty difficult challenges. She as well wanted to make sure this went off without a hitch. "Oh! Hi Xelldra. Perfect timing...My nerves are starting to get to me"

That day...

The Lady Xelldra walked up to her friend and Demon Lord Nosdyn's wife to be, Cerna. She smiled at her best friend. The two had become very close over time. Xelldra wore her long blonde hair in a single braided lock and wore her priestess robes. She hugged her friend. She served as an advisor to Nosdyn and Cerna. She made sure to offer her expert advice on all sorts of matters. Including at that point, during their wedding. Xelldra hugged her best friend closely.

"You look amazing today." She told her best friend. "You will make our demon lord melt." She promised. Xelldra had her eyes on the high priest Crux and had begun to make moves on him..."Remember the breathing techniques I have taught you. It's just nerves and fear, don't let fear win here this is a very special day for all of us." Xelldra said calmly. "If it helps your husband to be is also a nervous wreck right now to."

The ritual they were about to undergo was heavy on rites from the husband's point of view.

Xelldra kept her lovely face calm. Her glowing yellow eyes observed Cerna calmly. "When the hour comes me and you will face this all together." She promised Cerna...

Cerna chuckles a bit. Xelldra always did know how to calm her nerves "Oh is he now? Here i thought he had nerves of steel" She mused "Then again i suppose this is all new to him. As it is me"

Lady Xelldra smiled at her friend.

She knew later that day the procedure for marriage would begin in front of the Thayne Lady Y'edda.

Lady Xelldra worried for Lord Nosdyn's composure in front of the Thayne. She knew Lord Nosdyn despised the Thaynehood but was being diplomatic for Crux's sake. She knew Nosdyn didn't want an international incident, too much exposure to Theselak. He was a noble of sorts after all.

Xelldra understood the necessary trepidation.

Xelldra looked away for a moment deep in thought.....

Cerna looks toward her friend and ally. "You seem nervous yourself my friend. What troubles you?"

Lady Xelldra listens to her long time friend for a moment. She looked at Cerna carefully and placed a hand on her hand gently. "Lady Y'Edda is a Thayne." She began. "The Thayne are our enemies." She stated. "I worry for Lord Nosdyn's capacity to remain neutral here." She shook her head as she spoke. "But worry not Cerna, these are worries for older minds."

She paused for a moment. "But yes I am worried for Lord Nosdyn.

***

Later that day...

Nosdyn was in a conference with Crux and Lady Y'Edda preparing for the ceremony.

Lady Y'Edda looked at Nosdyn carefully. "Do you have so much hatred for us Lord Nosdyn?" She suddenly asked.

Nosdyn sighed and narrowed his eyes. "I do but I'm undergoing this ceremony for my mate's sake and Crurx and his people. You have no idea how difficult it is for me to be here in front of you like this. And not..." He sighed.

Lady Y'Edda nodded. "And not attack me?" She chuckled.

Cerna was anxiously waiting for the moment where she and nosdyn can see each other At the altar. This is the longest they've been separated

The training took a few weeks but Nosdyn made sure he got the ritualistic aspects of everything sorted correct. He would allow for no failures. Lady Y'Edda had no idea how much danger she was actually in, but he would keep his word and allegiance intact with Crux. The ceremony was underway and he looked at his wife to be in that amazing dress. He wanted to take her right then...in front of them all. However, he held restraint there would be plenty of time that night and in the futuer.

Lady Y'Edda stood alongside Crux. He was their high priest. Nosdyn went and ahead and recited the exact ritual words for word. His eyes locked on his woman. He held her hand the entire time the ritual hand fasting ceremony went on. Lady Y'Edda herself tied the ribbons around their two hands.

They were ceremonial ribbons.

At the final part of the ceremony, Lady Y'Edda nods and smiles. "You are now one before the eyes of the Thayne." She stated. "GO with our blessing Nosdyn and Cerna.' She smiled once more. "You may now kiss one another, you're wed."

Cerna smiles and kisses nosdyn happily. She had been patiently waiting for this day and it was a touching sight for all involved

He kissed his woman before the eyes of the Thayne and his people gathered in ceremony.

He held her closely to him and smiled. "I did it all right." He said with a large sense of relief. He hated that the Thayen was on their turf, but he allowed it for the time being. Holding his woman he thanked Crux and Lady Y'Edda. He raised his woman's hand in celebration as they were officially one. The gathered clapped tandem with his actions.

Later that day...

Nosdyn was in his bed chambers with his wife Cerna he looked at her. "Gods that was horrible." He finally told her. "To be in front of our enemy like that...and not able to attack." He shook his head. "I'm glad we sorted it..."

Cerna smiles a bit. "You did well my love. You've come a long way. We both had" She smiles
