Eighth Heaven the Sphere of the Fixed Stars from Dante’s Divine Comedy, 1564
It’s getting closer
I can feel it in my heart
Soon we’ll see each other again
I’m sorry for the wait

On their wedding night:
Rowan: I take thee…
Aelin *whispering*: say it
Rowan: I take thee
Aelin: say it
Rowan: im not saying it
Aelin: yes you are
Rowan: *sigh* I take thee, Aelin Ashryver Galathynius, Queen of Terrasen, heir of Brannon, heir of mala fire-bringer, heir of fire, witch-slayer, queen of flame and shadow, fire breathing bitch queen, adarlans assassin, kings champion, formally known as Celaena Sardothien, Lillian Gordaina, Elentiya and Dianna Brackyn, also aelin of the wildfire, aelin fire-bringer, the queen who was promised, the queen who walked between worlds, gods-killer and fireheart, to be my wife.
Aelin *wiping away a tear*: it’s beautiful
Strange given your title.
An inexplicable tightness grips my chest,
when the thought of losing you intrudes,
a shadow darkening the edges of my mind,
turning peace into a turbulent storm.
I’ll be what you desire, whatever form,
a steadfast friend, a silent companion,
confidant, my presence offered freely, without claim.
Content to be a part of your existence,
to share your world, even from a distance.
Each moment with you is a cherished gift,
a fragile thread that binds my heart to yours,
for losing you again would be an endless night,
a void too vast for words to ever fill.
So I remain, whatever you need me to be,
grateful just to be a part of your world.
