Bound by Fire and Mountain

Postby Sorgram on Sat Jan 29, 2011 12:12 am

The wedding ceremony of Uvelcra's Temple. Isla and Targos wedding as an example of how to proceed.

Uvelcra has two halves, as does a bonding. Each part brings to it aspects that are good and bad, wild and calm. Each part should compliment as well as temper the other. With Uvelcra, they are Fire and Mountain. The Mountain is strong and resolute, a protector and unyielding. Steadfast in its resolve, much will be needed to move it. However, nothing will hinder its path as it does move. Fire is fluid and chaotic. Not easily controlled, yet when provided proper understanding it can warm and provide sustenance. Each has it aspects which are positive and negative. Marriage is thus. Each partner, and in bonding, two persons have decided that the match is such that the others faults compliments the assets of the other and vice versa. Choosing a mate who has strengths in your weaknesses is key to success.

Today, we gather to bind two together. Isla and Targos have found within each other a compliment which will provide a whole which is greater than the two parts.

Isla, do you accept the qualities Targos, whether good or negative, brings to this union? To forgive him when he is adamant in his beliefs, unyielding in his desires and relish in his attentions? To stand behind him, watching his back, tending his wounds and seeing to his needs as he demands?

Place ring on his finger

Place the ring on his finger. Targos, do you accept the qualities Isla, whether positive or bad, brings to this union? To temper her fire, so that it remain in control, stoke it when it has all but gone out and attend to her needs with honor and fervor? To protect her as needed, allowing her whimsy when it is not outrageous and demanding no less than her best as she honors you?

Place ring on her finger

Before you, on the altar is a replica of this mountain, each of you should place one hand on opposite sides of the mountain. Now place your other hands over the hand of your mate.
A black crystal volcano sits there and seems to glow with an inner fire. It pulses with the heartbeat that matches what is under foot. The dark drak would place his hands just above theirs, hovering about two inches from them.

'by the will of the mountain, and with the blessing of fire,' the small volcano would begin to pulse faster and vibration would be felt by the two participants. 'The Fireblood shall forever unite them as one, each making the other whole. Each bringing their aspects together to become more than the two before.' The orange glow would grow and flow out over their hands, encircling their wrists as ropes of orange liquid. The ropes would flow and pulsate like living creatures. A look at the drak would show he was concentrating hard and sweating a bit

as heat waves flowed to his hand the glowing tendrils. 'Through Uvelcras blood, two are now one.' The liquid would flow back to the volcano and the vibrations would cease. Sorgram would take a step back and seemed shaky. A look on their hands would show the 'trails' left by the flowing tendrils, crossing over each of their hands and wrists, as it they were tied together by ropes which left burns on them, though there was no heat to them.

'I am honored to present Isla and Targos, bondmates.' He placed his hands on their shoulders and turned them to the gathered.
