Link stood to the side wearing a sad smile as she watched Emily smooth out her dress one more time in front of the mirror. There was no denying the young queen looked stunning dressed in white and her golden hair in a set of complicated series of braids, twists and knots with tiny white and blue flowers tucked in throughout the design. The elf, Kali, Uncle James had hired for the occasion had done her job to perfection.
It was harder now that it was just the two of them in the antechamber they were using as a dressing room. When her sister and her cousin had been running around helping, she was able to distract herself by being busy. Now, there was just this unbearable silence.
"You look beautiful, Ems. Perfect even." Link said coming up behind her best friend with what was now a supportive smile. Now that Emily had made her decision, she would never make her think of that time again. Silence evermore.
------------------------- Six Months Earlier
"Those will look ridiculous!" Tylir's voice could be heard down the hall and Link had to try very hard not to laugh as she watched Emily's face. Link knew what was happening, hell the whole kingdom knew. Tylir, being something of a plants expert, was fighting with the royal wedding planners again on the look of the flowers for the every approaching occasion.
"You could always do away with the whole affair." Link said as she moved her knight across the chess board. "Your move."

Emily gave Link a wan smile in the mirror, though it was clear she was distracted by her own intricate hair, the way her veil fell, the concern of the hem of her dress catching in her shoes.
"Why didn't I get married first, Link? Couldn't you have suggested that?" she asked, with a playful smile that only betrayed her worry if read in detail. "A wedding is stressful enough. Royal weddings are the work of some endless evil."

"Because you needed to establish your rule without a husband consort." Link said as she turned Emily around to face her. She resisted the urge deep down to give her one last full passionate kiss and instead link settled for giving her a peck on the cheek. "Just don't trip and you'll be fine." Then she went about setting Emily's veil correctly.
"There. All you need now is your escort." With her words there was a knock at the door.
