Two Wolf Tribe females walked ahead of Aurora, each holding one end of a large animal hide between them. The makeshift curtain completely concealed her from the people waiting ahead, especially from Asher.
The females had insisted it was part of the tradition - that the groom was forbidden from seeing his wife until the ceremony officially began. Aurora found the custom surprisingly sweet and decided not to question it.
Guided by the females, she followed the winding mountain path leading higher and higher above the Wolf Tribe. The evening breeze gently lifted the loose strands of her braided hair, carrying with it the scent of fresh flowers and greenery. Even before reaching the ceremonial grounds, she could already hear the lively sounds echoing through the mountains.
When they finally arrived, she couldn't help but quietly marvel at the sight before her.
