Last time on the Seleya:
Host NightWind says:
The situation on Magna Roma was finally unraveled.  While it would take years for everything to be repaired and a return to normalcy for all concerned, everyone was working towards that ultimate goal of peace.  The alien ship and weapons had been turned over to the Federation who has been going over them the past month.
Host NightWind says:
Among the crew, people have been dealing with the situation in their own way.  Between the month long clean-up, the return trip to Avalon station and two weeks of R&R, life moves on.  The captain spends time with her son and works on some redecoration.  Maor remains with the ship he has been with for many years, trying to
Host NightWind says:
adjust in a world where he does not like change and unable to brush off the fact that he and the crew have escaped one too many situations and bad karma awaits them.
Eldad is now known as CIV_Yn1_Ivanova.
Host NightWind says:
Ecchumati also remains close to the ship spending time with her daughter as she mentally prepares for the next journey in her life.  As for Caelan and Rose, after nearly five years of walking a shared path, they prepare to intertwine that path as they join their lives together and create a family… continuing a tradition almost as old as time.
Host NightWind says:
The ship is mostly quiet as most of the crew is taking advantage of the break.  There are those that have remained for the simple Celtic wedding and reception.  And there are the various family members of the engaged couple to add a flavor to the happenings.
Host CO_Capt_Gomes says:
Captain's log, Stardate 10908.16. It is a time of joy as Brianna Rose and Caellan Trigger prepare to get married. This may be our last moment of peace before the next storm so I will be sure the crew enjoys it

Host CO_Capt_Gomes says:
All: Crew of the Seleya, colleagues, friends, family. Ever since sentient beings set out to explore their planets, their solar systems and their galaxies there has been the need to maintain the routine of home even if home is very far away. This means bringing foods, drinks, clothing, furniture and, above all, traditions.
Host CO_Capt_Gomes says:
All: Perhaps the most important of these are wedding cerimonies. They represent the start of a new life, not only for the couple getting married but to all of their extended friends and family. ::looking down at the two:: All: Indeed our lives will never be the same.
SO_Lt_Rose says:
:: Twines her fingers with Caelan, reminding herself to breath.::
Host CO_Capt_Gomes says:

Host CO_Capt_Gomes says:
All: Caellan, Brianna, I have the honor and the responsability to seal your union. To make sure you both accept and are willing to live a life together.
