Redhawk Caldera Webster's Dictionary defines 'wedding' as the fusing of two metals with a hot torch.

Lilitu said she had not met with the man himself yet, which worried Eljay, but he said nothing of it. It was Lilitu's decision, after all, not his own. When she said she wanted to be useful, help their alliance, he cut in quickly to say, You shouldn't do this for us, Lilitu, only if it's what you really want. He knew too well the risks of trying to do what you thought was good for others. In the end, it was her life, and she should do what felt right for her, not for Brecheliant. Eljay'd never been one for alliances very much; he preferred to stick close to his pack. Brecheliant should be a place for that. They'd driven away Wraen to start Brecheliant once because of an alliance that didn't sit well with her, and so Eljay thought it was only right to think more of his own wolves than his alliances.

Lilitu then revealed that she was bored, which also worried Eljay a little. If she was bored here, what guarantees did she have to not be bored out there? It seemed the wrong reasons for him. Again, he didn't say anything, because he didn't feel like he should try to convince Lilitu to do one or the other thing. Instead, he simply said, Whatever you choose, it should be because it feels right for you. Disregard whatever it might bring or take from Brecheliant. In Eljay's opinion, it'd rob Brecheliant of more than it would give, but he left his statement neutral, because in the end, his opinion didn't matter very much here.

Lilitu asked Maia's opinion, and along with everyone else's, Eljay's eyes focused on his mate as well, waiting for her thoughts on it all.
