"He's weak! Attack him now!" Magnus yelled, running over to the crater and kicking Fabio-Ridley in the face. No magic or enhancement of any kind, just a good ol' fashioned kick in the face. If nothing else, Magnus enjoyed the classics.
"That was a pretty interesting attack, though." Magnus said to himself, still kicking the downed dragon. "I'll have to remember it." Then blood began to randomly spurt from his head, which made the mage remember that he had indeed, been hit by the attack, even if just a little. "Ah."

"Good job, everyone! You've weakened him enough for me to use my ultimate technique!" Hioma more or less guessed this fact; she had been looking down at her notebook the entire time, reading a story. She had noticed nothing outside of a few shouts that had probably resulted from some very powerful attack. "Here goes! The most beautiful of the pterodactyl siblings of Fun Land, Rachel, appeared before Fabio-Ridley to comfort him in his time of need!" She finished writing the italicized line in her Notebook of Fate!, and no sooner had she done that had a large female pterodactyl materialized in front of her.
"And so I was...Wait, what? Where did Riley go? WHERE AM I!?" Rachel let loose a horrible, shrill roar, apparently having been stripped from some important conversation. "WHAT SORT OF SORCERY IS THIS?!"
"This is the magic of love! Hi, Rachel!" Hioma waved up at the pterodactyl, beaming. "I brought you here to console Fabio-Ridley over there! I think you two would make a great couple!" Hioma pointed toward the crumpled heap that was Fabio-Ridley's once glorious form.
"What in the world are you-" Before Rachel could make her objections known, she gazed over toward where Hioma was pointing. Pink, cartoony hearts appeared in her eyes, and it was clear that this was love at first sight. "Oh my goodness! What's happened?" Rachel beat her massive wings and flew over to the nearly defeated dragon, adding to the horrible storm that the Dayman had summoned.
Hioma wrote something else in her notebook and a pink parasol materialized above her, deflecting the wind toward the less fortunate protagonists.
"Oh, no, no, no...Someone help this beautiful, majestic creature before he dies!" Rachel cried out, tears running down her face. Or beak. Whatever pterodactyls have. "We just met, but I feel like...He is my true love! Don't let him die!"
"Ha! Match made!" Hioma nodded and twirled the almighty Pen of Love! in her right hand. The background changed from a storm of wind to a storm of...hearts? Instead of rain, pink ribbons descended from the sky and enveloped her body until Hioma appeared to be nothing more than an ovular shell of swirling cloth. This shell of ribbons grew a few inches and, in a flash of bright light, it was gone. What stood in the ribbons' place was a new girl. She was taller, had long flowing pink hair, and was wearing a Japanese school girl uniform. There was no pen or notebook to be found on her person; just a lengthy staff and circular, heart emblazoned shield.
"Spreading peace throughout the galaxy..." The woman began prancing across the field. "Promoting relationships between all living creatures..." She was now pirouetting in place. "I am Sailor Eros, Enforcer of Love! And you've met your match!" Sailor Eros pointed her staff threateningly at Rachel and Fabio-Ridley. "Prepare yourselves! Love...Enforcement...Blast!" From the tip of Sailor Eros' staff came a large, heart shaped beam of energy, which struck both Fabio-Ridley and Rachel squarely in their chests, creating a massive explosion. When the explosion cleared, both the pterodactyl and dragon were standing there in wedding attire: Rachel in a large, ornate wedding gown (with slits for her wings), and Fabio-Ridley (now fully healed) in a four piece suit, which added to his already exorbitant handsomeness.

Perish had still been coughing up a burning lung for the most part while clouds were separating and people around spouting nonsense and then the flamboyant dragon doing some extra-nonsense, so she was pretty much caught off guard by the whole thing.
She barely saw the dragon super-charge its codpiece before it spun into something unrecognizable, and her own immortality meant survival wasn't on her mind; the damn absurdity was there instead.
"What is this I don't even-" Perish managed to fit in before the dragon landed and she lost track of what happened for a moment, later regaining cognition and awareness in a smoking crater with half her clothes missing in perfect fanservice-modesty style.
"What..." Perish reiterated with a grumble as she attempted to climb out of her little crater and notice the enormous one, her robe curiously regenerating as she did so.
"Nope. I'm not even going there," Perish insisted, pushing the absurdity aside and putting her game face back on, staring down the wounded dragon, "I'll just kill this creature, turn it into a zombie dragon and we can all get back to our merry little quest that I've forgotten the details of."
With that, Perish decided to try the new blood she'd just painstakingly absorbed, ritual symbols inscribing themselves on the inside of her lungs before she took a deep breath in, and then breathed out a beam of Diamondium on the dragon.
"Yeah! Not so fun to be on the receiving end huh!" Perish said, shaking her fist grumpily, cringing a little as her insides burned a little and she steamed in a few areas, her mouth still smoking that blue smoke a little.

The Dayman saw the newly engaged couple transformed into their wedding attire, and immediately ceased his thrusting lessons. The heavy metal music faded and was now replaced by a B roll of the “Bridal Chorus” began to boom through the plains. The Prince tensed his body up and buried his fists under his chin, and his eyes began to sparkle as brightly as his gloriously royal codpiece, it was the legendary super kawaii face of The Secluded and Tropical Nation of Koosalagoopagoopakuzbekistanahamas that had been passed down through countless generations. It looked specifically like this (｡◕‿◕｡). As his eyes began to water, The Dayman burst forth and shouted, “I just love weddings!! I shall dawn my royal codpiece of matrimony! Oh happy day!!!”
He pulled a phone booth from his infinity belt and entered it, slamming the door behind him so that none would be able to see his changing of attire. It was for their own safety you see, those of a lower class are not able to handle the raw nudity of royalty. It hurts their eyes and shames them. The Dayman simply reversed his codpiece, and put it back on, but not one leg at a time you see, he leapt up into the air and thrust both of his legs through at the same time, because that is how royalty does it. He emerged from the phone booth, victorious. His newly acquired codpiece shown almost as brightly as Rachel’s wedding dress (for nothing truly shines brighter than Vera Wang, honestly. And it is so form fitting as well. Each dress is just so perfect. As the saying goes, you all know, you do not alter Vera Wang, you alter yourself for Vera, as all royalty know). The codpiece was now a shining testimony to true royal love, as it was composed of something old, something new, something borrows, and something blue, as it should be.
Just as he was going to toast the happy couple, Perish surprisingly expelled a blast of diamondium (and wastefully so, if it were diamondillium it would have been much more effective you see. Must I keep reiterating this?), and The Dayman, selflessly for once (out of his love for wedding ceremonies and true love), threw himself in front of the blast and redirected it with his royal codpiece of matrimony, sending the blast off into the distance.
He recomposed himself and pointed a victory pose at the general direction of Perish, “Fool! You cannot conquer true love! True love conquers you! But I will forgive this transgression, for someone of such a low social status as yourself must not have ever experienced true love. You do not know its powers.” Just then, The Dayman’s mind took him back to a simpler time. A happier time, a time filled with true love and royalty, but he quickly shook his head and dispersed the gloriously royal memories, he did not wish to overshadow the happy couple’s day. The Dayman wishes to promise a digression, another day. For he knows that you all wish to hear of his romantic backstory, it is truly remarkable you see. The Dayman took a deep breath and calmed himself again, and raced to the side of Sailor Eros.
Speaking in her general direction, he clasped her hands with his own royal and masculine palms, “You, my dear are in luck. For I am an ordained minister in all the five lands! It comes with being royalty you see, as another inheritance. It is the purest form of gaining any type of wealth or status you see. I shall marry these two lovely, lovely behemoths”, and turning to face the rest of the grew (but only generally), “And you all shall take part! I insist! I shall take nothing put your full cooperation. Now, you!”
He generally directed his now angered and brooding face at Perish, “As penance for your transgressions, I dub thee royal wedding flower girl!” He bent down and plucked daisies from the ground, roots and all, and threw them at Perish.
“Now..erm…mooks? I honestly do not know what to call you, your lack of social status is overshadowed by your lack of individual thought, which does not even grant you the status of true men! Honestly I am shocked that you are out adventuring and not in a kitchen somewhere. As you cannot be separated from your group status, and your lack of true manhood, you shall be the maids of honor. Stand over there please”, and he pointed to the side just left of Rachel.
He stopped Magnus from kicking Fabio-Ridley, and addressed him almost directly. “Magnus, as your name suggests, you are a great man. It is only fitting that you be the best man. I believe this will be to your liking. I only bestow this right to you since I currently fill the role of wedding coordinator AND minister. Now please sir, take your place at the side of groom.”
“Jeffrey, you shall be the royal groomsmen, reluctantly of course, as always. And shall stand to the right of Magnus. Do try to seem atleast slightly happy for the couple.”
“Sailor Eros my dear, you are the matchmaker, and by right of bringing this happy couple together, you are now Maid of Honor. I am sure that you know where to stand.”
“Now!” He dashed over to Eisfer, “You have the most important job of all!” He reached into his codpiece and took out a small royal traveling phone, “You must contact TLC! David Tutera MUST hear of this, I absolutely relish the thought of the big day being on tv. It would be quite the treat for you all, as I am accustomed to being on tv I can assure you that most everything pales in comparison.”
He sauntered over to the happy couple and pulled a beautiful royal purple alter from his infinity belt and placed it between them. Just as he was about to begin his speech, he noticed the Bread Wizard coming back into consciousness behind him. "Oh! You! And hear I had forgotten of our friendly neighborhood gluten based hero. Since the proceedings are about to be underway, you will have to be forced into the background of the action yet again. However, I will allow you to give the...toast (he chuckled to himself slightly)...at the wedding reception that will follow. Now step aside!"
He placed his hands behind his back and began to bellow, “Dearly beloved, we are gathered here toda……..”

Jeffrey scratched his neck, feeling his Super Ambivalence powers taking hold. The fight seemed to be over, or at least temporarily stopped, so he figured...what the hell? Plus, when would he get the chance to take part in a dragon wedding again?
Well, based on the last few days, it might happen a few more times, but still...
He shrugged, dispelling his weapon, and tapped his Matrix shades. Doing so caused his body to glow and his clothes to transform into quite the snazzy tuxedo.
"Aight, groomsman, coming up."
Fabio-Ridley stifled a sob. "Oh, thank you Sailor Eros! I have never been so happy! And thank YOU, Dayman, for your wedding planning efforts!" He broke into joyfulo sobs and allowed Rachel Ridley to comfort him.

"This is weird even for me..." Magnus said, then trailed off, recalling all of the weird scenarios he'd been in over the centuries. "Okay, so it's not the weirdest..."
The wandering mage decided to role with it. "Congratulations, Fabio-Ridley." he cheered, all traces of aggression gone, despite the fact that he had been kicking the dragon in the face mere seconds ago. "Oh if only we could have had a bachelor party first. It would have been..."
Images of Magnus, Jeff, the Dayman and Fabio-Ridley in Las Vegas, being chased by police, kidnapping a tiger, fighting the Chinese mafia and then getting very wasted flashed through the mage's mind. "Ah...the fun we're missing."
Magnus got into place beside Jeff, sighing. Leske, Desmond and Ash all took their places without a fight, pretty much resigned to anything at that point.
"We really need to do something that defines us as characters here." Ash muttered.
"After the wedding though." Desmond said, looking like he was thoroughly enjoying the proceedings.

Sailor Eros smiled at Fabio-Ridley and replied "Don't thank me! True love is its own reward. Now, Disguise Power, Engage!" She twirled her Staff of Love! and another storm of hearts and ribbon-shell-encasing later, she was robed in an elegant black dress. Not as beautiful as Rachel's, of course, so as to avoid upstaging her, but certainly fitting the traditional garbs of a Maid of Honor. Once she had finished magically dressing, she backflipped to her place at the left of Rachel.

“…today to witness and celebrate the union of Fabio-Ridley and Rachel-Ridley in marriage. In the years…er…minutes they have been together, their love and understanding of each other has grown and matured, and now they have decided to live their lives together as husband and wife.”
The Dayman slowly wiped a tear from his glorious, royal eyes and continued.
“Today, as you join yourselves in marriage, there is a vast and unknown future stretching out before you. The possibilities and potentials of your married life are great, and now falls upon your shoulders the task of choosing your values and making real your dreams. Through your commitment to each other, may you grow and nurture a love that makes both of you a better dragon and pterodactyl, a love that continues to give you great joy, and also a passion for living that provides you with energy and patience to face the responsibilities of life.”
“A true royal marriage is more than just the joining of two persons…uh dragon..dinosaurs. It is the union of two hearts. Dragons have hearts? Yes? Thought so. Fabio-Ridley and Rachel-Ridley remember to treat yourselves and each other with respect, and reminds yourselves often of what brought you together, namely Sailor Eros, but I believe it may be a bit irresponsible to speak of her during your romantic dragonsaur sessions. Now, do you wish to exchange vows? Or shall I recited the traditional wedding vows of the five lands?”

Perish's eyes narrowed, incredulous with disbelief at how quickly everything was changing and the Dayman just seemed to be riding the current like a professional, while everyone else went with the flow. It was almost becoming to much, she was awfully tempted to claw out her own eyes this time in pure frustration and scream until they regenerated.
But no, screw this all, she was done trying to be sensible and kill the big evil dragon like a goodie-two-shoes was supposed to do -she wasn't even specifically a good person! This was all a giant scheme to snowball power for her own plans of dominion! Where did everything get so messed up?
She immediately felt stupider for even asking that question.
"Alright. Fine. Call me poor, whatever," Perish said flatly, throwing the whole agenda away along with the daisies that had died on contact with her, still looking awfully unimpressed and slightly grumpy as she stood and channeled her magic again, gathering up the shreds she left about the place from her first ritual and mixing it in with the leftover blood for a quick giant boost.
Then she merely raised a hand and clicked her fingers, causing a colossal cathedral to explode from the ground all over the place, giant ivory pillars shooting up, giant walls that folded and flipped around the procession to make the whole glamorous and proper.
They probably wouldn't like to know exactly what the cathedral was made of -as innocuous as it looked- so Perish just kept silent and sat in one of the many rows of ivory seats, airily examining the lovely ivory tile floors. That dragon's blood was a little ridiculous...

Fabio-Ridley was so overcome with emotion, he could only eek out, "No, no, thank you. But I have had no time to prepare anything to say. The traditional ceremony will do just fine, won't they, dear?"
"Oh yes, darling," Rachel Ridley replied, also brimming with tears. "Just fine indeed!"
But before the Dayman could continue, the air was rent in twain, and a portal appeared, right at the entrance to the bone cathedral. And two more draconic forms emerged--Pterodactyls to be specific--barely escaping the wrath of the PFG before it closed behind them.
"What is all this?" Ridley Ridley demanded, looking around. He drew his purple form to his full height and spread his wings.
"Looks like a wedding, bro," Riley Ridley responded, his smaller red form moving up and down the pews. "Hey, it's Rachel! When did you decide to get married?"
"Oh, brothers!" she cried. "I'm so glad you could make it! Lady Hioma here introduced me to Fabio-Ridley not five minutes ago and we knew instantly we were meant to be!" She descended into tears again.
"WHAAAA?!?!?" Ridley roared and shot a jet of flame into the air. "I must meat this...Fabio!"
"It is I!" Fabio-Ridley stepped forth, brandishing his dazzling codpiece. "I am the groom. I love your sister and I will marry her today!"
"Hmph!" Ridely closed the gap between them, avoiding the enormous codpiece. "You say you are a Ridley? You appear to be a dragon. The Ridleys are a proud Pterodactyl family. I won't have any relation of mine marrying into a dragon family!"
"Whoa, bro," Riley gasped. "Too much!"
"Brother!" Rachel yelled and moved to intercept him, but Fabio-Ridley stopped her.
"No my dear, I can do this alone." He drew himself up to his full height. "Ridley Ridley, I may live in Esteros now, but my family hails from The Secluded and Tropical Nation of Koosalagoopagoopakuzbekistanahamas. We were driven out many years ago and found a new home here, among the dragons. They took us in. My great grandfather, Kraid Ridley, lead the migration."
Ridely considered this. "Kraid Ridley? I know this name. My father spoke of his greatness. We have not had a home in many years; we were wanderers until my parents settled in Fun Land." He moved to Fabio-Ridley. "Yes, I believe I have misjudged you. You are a true Ridley--we both hail from The Secluded and Tropical Nation of Koosalagoopagoopakuzbekistanahamas." He extended a claw. "You may marry my sister."
"Oh, thank you brother!" Rachel threw her arms around Ridley and Riley. Much tearing was had. When they recovered, the brother Pterodactyls took their seats in the pews, near Perish, and the bride and groom returned to the Dayman, motioning for him to continue.
Jeff just watched the whole thing from behind his Matrix shades.

”Traditional it is!” The Dayman took a look around the now bustling cathedral. The Ridleys were all accounted for, Perish was behaving, the mooketeers weren’t doing a half bad job at their bridesmaid position, one of them seemed to be enjoying himself as much as The Dayman. That one may one day rise from the bondage of his social class, he understands true love. It is a beautifully royal thing.
He looked up at Fabio Ridley, eyes watering with a royal smile, and recited. “Do you Fabio Ridley, take Rachel Ridley, to be your lawfully wedded wife, to love and to cherish through joy and sorrow, sickness and health, through good times and bad, until death do you part?”
Fabio Ridley flipped his long flowing locks and took Rachel’s pterodactyl hand claw things in his giant dragon hands and caressed them slowly. He let out a giant diamondium dragon tear and smiled, “I do.”
The Dayman resisted the urge to release the legendary super kawaii face of The Secluded and Tropical Nation of Koosalagoopagoopakuzbekistanahamas that had been passed down through countless generations, and took a deep breath. “Do you Rachel Ridley, take Fabio Ridely, to be your lawfully wedded wife, to love and to cherish through joy and sorrow, sickness and health, through good times and bad, until death do you part?”
Rachel raised Fabio’s hand up to her pterodactyl beak and nuzzled it softly, “I do!”
“Splendid!” The Dayman shouted embarrassingly. “Now! My absolutely positively most splendidly most royally fantastical favorite part! The rings! Where are the rings?”

"Impossible!" Sailor Eros gave a very loud gasp, incredulous. "How could we have forgotten the rings? This wedding cannot continue without the rings!" She lifted her Staff of Love! high into the air, closed her eyes tightly and began to focus. She seemed to have forgotten that her alter ego, Hioma, could have just written rings into existence. Oh well. "By the power vested within me..." She jumped from her Maid of Honor position and began prancing around the cathedral. "Love...Jewelry...NAVIGATION!" Punctuating each word with a pirouette, she smiled as waves of pink light emanated from her staff's ruby heart. Suddenly, the floor in the back of the cathedral was swallowed into the ground, creating what appeared to be a sinkhole. Next to the hole was a sign that read 'Entry to Mount Wedding Ring! Watch out for high temperatures and Volcano Demons. Also, the one hundred yard drop."
"Come, everyone! Mount Wedding Ring awaits!" Still dressed in her Maid of Honor dress, Sailor Eros front flipped all the way to the back of cathedral and into the hole, landing with an audible thud.

As a strangely timed group, Ridley Ridley, Riley Ridley, Rachel Ridley, and Fabio-Ridley all drew themselves up to their full heights and unleashed a mighty roar. "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" Fire, Ice, Lazah, and Diamondium breath attacks escaped their maws and filled the air.
"Fear not, my love," Fabio-Ridley declared, for I will journey to Mount Wedding Ring and fetch the most beautiful pair or rings ever forged."
"That's wonderful," Rachel answered. "But I'll go with you. We must do this together."
Ridley and Riley also declared their support of the ring quest.
Jeffrey shrugged in his tux and shades. "Aye man, I'm ok with this. Super Ambivalence levels are to the max right now. Let's go get us some rings." He conjured his barrier-sword and casually strolled towards the exit, all four dragonoids taking flight around him.

"I have some rings we could have used, but they're pretty much all cursed in some way." Magnus rubbed his chin thoughtfully as he followed the group into the portal. "Also, what was that about volcano demons? I think I've fought one of those before. They don't like water. Or eagles. Not sure why."
"I like how we can't even get through a wedding without something strange and questlike happening." Desmond complained as they too ventured forth to Mount Wedding Ring.
Mount Wedding Ring was very mountainous and looked like it would erupt at any point. "What smells like burnt toast?" Magnus asked, taking a deep breathe. He looked over to see the Bread Wizard, who looked distinctly uncomfortable with their change in climate.
"This is a foul place. My bread abilities are brittle and tasteless here."

"Well," a voice came from beside Jeffrey, "I can't trust you to go off on your own, Commander Lobster, so I suppose I'll just have to come with you and monitor your actions." Where there had been nobody before, a man now walked. Sort of. From the neck down this newcomer was a man, dressed in a fine suit. At his sides were what appeared to be a twin pair of toy pistols- the sort which would fire foam darts with enough force to mildly annoy a small insect. Where the man's head should have been, however, there was instead a squid. A pink squid. A HAPPY pink squid. With a happy face that may or may not have been drawn with a marker.
So cometh the Illusive Squid.

"Yes! No royal wedding is complete without a royal adventure, please, a moment acquaintances and happy couple. I must change." The Dayman ran into the phone booth, that was now actually located inside of the Cathedral. He closed the door behind him and yet again, in a double legged leaping royal fashion, flipped his codpiece inside out and dawned his adventuring codpiece, no doubt a familiar and welcoming sight for the rest of the crew. "Now onward to Mount Wedding Ring!" The Dayman jumped into the sinkhole and landed in Mount Wedding Ring where Magnus, Jeffrey, Sailor Eros, The Ridleys, The Mooketeers, a crunchy looking Bread Wizard, and now a strange squid fellow were all standing, no doubt waiting for his gloriously royal entrance.
However, this royal entrance never occurred. Upon entering the mountain (which seemed to be sweltering like a furnace, such heat could feel one with great sorrow, hmmm...a sorrow filled furnace, if i didn't know any better I would say that I am getting quite close to copyright infringement. Yes, yes sir I know. I shall stop at once. The Dayman has reminded me of the pains that my digressions cause, I apologize. Back to the story.), the mighty and royal Prince walked towards the group in quite a daze. His mind was not with him, it was back in a happier time again, a time filled with true love. For you see, this was not the first time that The Dayman had been to Mount Wedding Ring. He had once come here seeking the most splendid gem for...ah...yes...yes sir I am sorry. I am doing it again aren't I? I just can't help myself it is such a wonderful story. You and...yes...yes you are quite right my lord, I'll get on with it.
Yes, The Dayman's mind was somewhere else entirely that I can't speak of for fear that I will run off in another tangent, and then he came to upon seeing the new squid character.
"You, you there," he bellowed somewhat into the direction of the squid man, not because he was poor and not allowed to talk to him directly, actually that was sure to be part of the reason, for anyone who is not of The Dayman's royal family is certainly a lower class, but the squid man seemed to be quite illusive somehow, to a degree that The Dayman was not quite entirely sure that he was standing there, but he was mostly sure.
"You, squid tuxedo man. That is quite a suit, but where is your codpiece? No suit is complete without it if you truly wish to give off the air of power and wealth."

"Please," the Illusive Squid said, "call me the Illusive Squid. As for my codpiece...well you see, I have no desire to draw unwanted attention to myself at present. But worry not, perhaps you will someday have the opportunity to gaze upon its splendor. As it were, it may very well be our only hope to stop the Shrimpers." As he spoke, the Illusive Squid occasionally paused, during which time a puff of smoke would billow from one of his face-tentacles.

Jeffrey took a few steps away from the Illusive Squid. Something about this...thing unsettled him. It unsettled him in a way he hadn't experienced since he murdered a bunch of people. Remember that?
"Look, squid-man, I think you have me confused with someone else. I've been a lot of things recently. But I'm pretty sure I was never a Commander Lobster."
The Ridley siblings + Fabio-Ridley all joined Sailor Eros at the (presumably) head of the group. "Lady Eros," Fabio-Ridley said. "Are you confident we will find our wedding rings in time? I don't like leaving the wedding half-finished like this. Rachel is here with me, yes, but to take off like that...it does not site well in my gizzard, if you understand."
What? Dragons have gizzards. LOOK IT UP.

"Hmmm." The royal gears inside the mind of The Dayman began to turn. "I do suppose that revealing your codpiece would draw the eyes of any passerby, or any passeragainby (those are of course passersby who wish to gaze upon your codpiece twice over, so they turn tail and take another pass, they are quite common you see). I am unacquainted with this custom, but I do suppose that I shall accept it!" He turned and began to address the Illusive Squid.
"I, The Incredibly Handsome and Much Much Better Than You Prince Ali-Hammurabi-dappapa-pastathopoulos-giannis-maleza-demetreus-qui-gon-jinn-julius of The Secluded and Tropical Nation of Koosalagoopagoopakuzbekistanahamas, the 4th, Esquire, Jr. do declare you royal social status to be credible, and grant you the glory of my full attention and acknowledgment. From this day forward, we shall be able to speak face to face. Illusive Squid, I do believe that our group have been infinitely bettered by the arrival of another piece of social prowess."
"And yes," He turned to face the direction of Eros somewhat, "I do not like waiting either. True love must not be kept waiting! Waiting..." He again trailed away in thought, as if his mind were broken. It is assumed the rest of the group just sort of stared at him while his royal mouth hanged open and he became lost in his own mind.

Mount Wedding Ring.
Yep.
Asides from the little moment of reminiscence Perish had looking at a tarnished silver ring on her own left ring finger, she just nodded and decided that this quest of great importance that was probably supposed to save the world or whatever, that an acceptable side-quest was to go hunt for wedding rings for a dragon they were previous attempting to kill and a pterodactyl that appeared out of nowhere.
Yes, acceptable, it made perfect sense, it was of course the only thing that could possible follow such a spontaneous wedding.
Perish might have been able to forge a pair of rings with incredibly questionable and possibly morally reprehensible methods, but surely they would instead prefer to go on an epic quest to who-knows-where to retrieve some rings of superfluousness.
So the evil necromancer with incomprehensibly-sized ambition on the quest of good and righteousness was now to further assist these random dragon things be united in holy matrimony. Probably... she didn't actually know what the Dayman said half the time... They might have been going to an ancient mountain peak to sacrifice a goat, who knows, who cares!
Perish just stood up and walked after the crowd, deciding to preemptively gather energy to provide a particular random crux whenever it appeared next. Because alas, a wedding without a grand cathedral just wouldn't be the same, so obviously they needed Perish to provide that last touch on the maelstrom of madness.
She decided to walk alongside Jeff since he seemed the one on the closest level of sanity or insanity to Perish.
"So Commander Lobster, what is our plan of attack for this Mount Wedding Ring?" Perish asked Jeff airily.
