At the Temple of the Seldarine

*Durmla arrives at the ceremony carrying a cask of the finest Dwarven Mead she can get her hands on, and a fine-looking wooden bowl carved with Dwarf-runes. She is dressed in fine, if rough-spun formal Dwarven attire, and her normally matted and tangled hair is combed out and neatly plaited. She sits quietly through the ceremony, and once the rituals and honors are bestowed to those fallen soldiers of Myth Drannor, she approaches the crypt where they are laid to rest. Durmla pours a measure of the mead into the bowl, and holds it out in front of her in offering to unseen hands.*

"Hail the Victorious Dead." *She speaks in Dwarven* "Hail the Victorious Dead." *She repeats in Common.*

*Durmla places the bowl on the floor at the opening of the crypt, and leaves the cask of mead next to it.*

The ceremony would include many gathered priests of all the Seldarine gods...including the mysterious and ancient, highly revered Lady Moonshire.

The fallen are lying in repose, the priests gathered around them while they perform the burial rites, led by the clergy of Sehanine Moonbow.

Incense fills the air as the priests chant their prayers to welcome the souls into the eternal dance in Arvandors glades.

Celovar would attend the funeral rights. His head would be kept low and he would not speak unless spoken too. His bandanna he commonly wore was rested in his hands as a sign of respect to those whom died for a worthy cause.

Cleo would also attend in his dual roles.

At the appropriate time, he would step forth and place beside each of the fallen a wreath the color of glorious morning, clearly handmade by children from the flowers in front of the orphanage.

Ashton slips quietly into the fringes of the services, dressed in fine clothes, his hat removed and polished boots. He stays quiet, thoughtful and respectful as he watches the rites.

those in attendance would notice that the mysterious ancient elf that some elves in attendance call in whispers "the Lady Moonshire" would deeply frown when humans enter the temple

Celedien, the newest Tael of the Akh-Velahr, shows up, dressed in some old ceremonial armor, helmet under her left arm, a highly decorated Longsword in its scabbard by her right hip, holding her head low, praying lowly for each of her cousins and friends that lost their life to the horde.

Alaniel would be among the priests of Sehanine, blessing the dead and performing the rites of burial and passage, holding ritual totem carvings over her head and chanting. She would mostly bless the bodies of Teu´tel Quessir who share her believes.

Auryne would attend the rites among the faithful, praying softly to the creator and the daughter of the night skies for safe passage of the souls to Arvandor

Karovir would enter the temple and look at what is going on there. After seeing it's some elven ritual and some of them frowning he just leaves the temple again.

Nadin is present and standing he prays silently. He's dressed in his usual ornated mithral armor using his Akh'Velahr cloak, with the helmet resting bellow his left arm, and an ornated elven sword resting in its scabbard.

Mark doesn't show up, even though he helped carry the corpses.

Near the back, tucked up out of the way Ravossel would be found, when her friends, and ones els first look upon her they may or may not recognized her at first. For she's not dressed in her blue robs like normal, but in sted soft pearl white robs, with a very elegant holy symbol of Lurue sown in place over her left fruits, and shoulder. In a solemn silence Ravossel remains quit, with hands folded in her lap, haed hung low, tears for the fallen streak down her checks.

Valtore would arrive at the temple wearing his Mathor cloak. He would stand respectfully silent and watchful. The words of others about the appearance of a dwarf would not phase him. While he was not present at the battle he did work at the forges sharpening weapons and making armor. He would watch and listen to what was said and by whom in elven and high elven if it was spoken.

Lord Ryn'ja Cathlemet attends in his formal robes and would pray silently to corellon to bless those that had died in service to the city.. still feeling a bot awkward being all dressed up he may be seen at times slightly fidgeting rather uncomfortably but other wise remaining perfectly still..

he would make note that the lady moonshire had attended and if she notices he would offer a simple nod in respect but otherwise his head would be hung down paying his respects..

unless spoken to he would not speak to any one but remain quiet..

feeling a bit out of place as he never truly understood the customs here and though he tries to fit in which he never really does after the end of the service unless directed to attend anything else he would try to ease his way out he would dip his head and make his way out of the temple..

*Drumla catches sight of another Dwarf, and her mood lightens a bit, all things considered.*
