THE CEREMONY OF THE BLESSED VESSEL–Part V
PART V Princess Lilianna was talking about destination again. What destination? Whatever could that mean? “And if you are especially blessed, along the way you will find your one true love to share the rest of the journey with you.” That definitely didn’t sound like the destination was about finding her one true love.
