Undaku walks his daughter down the aisle created out of flowers, glowing little fires on the sides of them, the trees blooming with flowers overhead, shadowing their friends and family from the full moon.Undaku gives Imanis hand to Niklaus, "Do not hurt her." Niklaus nods before the priest speaks.
Esther watches her son, Niklaus, get married to the youngest Bennett daughter with a smile. All she felt was happiness. This is all she wanted after Henrik. This way Ayanna will help her, as she promised. Ayanna will give her the power to protect her children.
"Do you, Mikaelson, take Bennett to be your other half?"
Ayanna watches her daughter. The visions do not lie. They never have. It doesn't change the fact that watching her daughter marry out of duty, doesn't hurt.
Ayanna remembers telling her daughters stories of how her and Undaku met. Their story being one the girls should always look for, never settling for anything less than that. And here she is, telling them that those were just stories. That love doesn't exist. All there is, is power.
Imani might not realize it now, but she will. Ayanna is sure of it.
She catches Esther's eyes. The wretched woman, Ayanna knows, will do more harm than good with what she wants. She hopes that the visions happen, because if they do.....
"I do."
"Do you, Bennett, take Mikaelson, as your other half?"
Eboni listens to the man marrying her sister and new brother in law, looking down, watching her hands glow green. She has to prepare, not her choice now.
A hand wrapped in red grabs her hand, "Do not worry."
"Ndine worry ngaye. Mama, kuthekani ukuba.....ukuba kukho into etshintshileyo?" Eboni asks. (Translation; I'm worried about him. Mom, what if.....what if something has changed?)
"Nothing will change, my child," Ayanna promises.
"I do."
"Are you sure?" Ayanna watches as Imani grabs a silver dagger, wrapping her hand around it as she glides it across her palm, Niklaus doing the same when the dagger was handed to him. Nodding at Eboni, "they have not changed, child."
