"I really do have to stop that dying nonsense," Kari chuckled as she gave Lorna another hug. "It is getting damned old. I'm just glad everyone is here today and enjoying everything..."
Kari looked past the group around her to see that her parents had arrived. Thankfully, her grandmother was nowhere to be seen. "And most of my family is here. Finally!" Kari said as she waved to Ronan, Kennis and Aerfen. "Some of you might have heard me mention my cousin Aerfen. She might have some information regarding what Omnia showed us. I'll see what I can find out before she heads back home."
As she checked to see who else had come along for the weddings, Kari thought about her brother Orion and sister Fiona. They had left on a quest together before Kari's last exit from the X-Men, and she had only heard from them sporadically before most of the family left on that quest. Orion did not want their sister facing some fate worse than death when she went after her lost lover, a sailor who had been snatched from her by some wicked twist of fate centuries ago. If anyone could protect Fiona--be it on land or on sea--he was the person for the job.
"We really could do with a toast right now," Kari noted as she motioned for everyone to pick up their beverage of choice.
"May you be poor in misfortune,
Rich in blessings,
Slow to make enemies,
And fast to make friends!"
"Wise words, and not my own, for a blessed occasion!" Kari added as everyone took a drink.
