"The Unveiling of Primus: Lumina's Wedding and Revelation"

Lumina noticed that Mortis seemed a little sad, but he tried to maintain his cool demeanor when he noticed that he was being watched. He picked up Lumina and walked with her to the entrance of the cemetery, so they could continue westward to clean up the Last Cemetery.

Valeria looked around and asked Mortis how all this was possible, how the whole area had transformed. But he only said, "You'll see at the next cemetery. We have one more to go, then it's off to Greenheim." "What are we doing there?" asked Valeria. "That's a long story, and I don't know if I should talk about it. Maybe I'll explain it to you another time," replied Mortis.

Mortis brought out the ghost bear and sat on it, exhausted from the waves of undead that had been unleashed on him in the dungeon for half a day. Valeria sat in front of him to show the bear where to go, and Lumina clung to Mortis from behind, somewhat disappointed that he didn't cling to her. But he didn't notice anything, the swaying of the bear made him tired, and he leaned forward and fell asleep on Valeria's shoulder.

The journey went far to the west, and although the whole northern half of the continent was very high, they could see the sea as they arrived at the next and last cemetery after over eight hours. Mortis woke up as if he could feel that he was approaching undead and another source of Osmirnis.

"Finally, you're awake. You've been drooling on my shoulder and blouse for hours," complained Valeria. Mortis rubbed the sand out of his eyes, grinned, and said, "I love you too," and gave her a kiss on the cheek. Valeria was completely shocked and somewhat angry, but she didn't say anything and just looked at the path ahead of her. But Lumina became angry and pulled on Mortis's back until he turned around. When he did, Lumina pointed to her cheek, but Mortis looked away at first. When Lumina looked at him in horror, he quickly gave her a kiss on the mouth, which turned her horror into a joyful grin and made her cling even tighter to him.

While Lumina clung to Mortis and Valeria sat on the ghost bear in front of him, she thought about her relationship with Mortis. She had only seen him as a useful tool so far, to meet Jasmine and lead a peaceful life, but the more time she spent with him, the more she recognized his strengths and qualities.

She noticed how skillful and brave Mortis was in fighting the undead and how he took care of Lumina. Valeria was impressed and began to consider whether there was more to him than just a means to an end.

When they arrived at the last cemetery, Valeria saw how Mortis concentrated, took his scythe and approached the cemetery. She had almost expected him to just disappear again, but he didn't. So she ran to him to support him and get rid of the undead. She could fight against skeletons and zombies, but she had no chance against ghosts, as she had neither ghost oil nor the ability to harm souls. Lumina had to prepare herself and activate an artifact to restrain her power so that she was in the same area as Mortis and Valeria. As a goddess, she could have cleared this cemetery with a wink, but she wanted Mortis to become stronger, so she just tried to support him. Being a witch, she placed curses on her enemies and used spells that were so poisonous that even zombies and bones could dissolve.

After about 20 minutes, the undead had been freed from the cemetery and Mortis set off towards the crypt in the center of the cemetery with Valeria and Lumina following him. In the basement of the crypt, there was a statue of Osmirnis that Mortis smashed in order to weaken Osmirnis' power. Mortis knelt down and prayed to Primus when suddenly it became bright and the cemetery and the area began to change, and Primus became the new goddess in charge of the dead.

Valeria looked around and ran upstairs to see everything slowly changing, but Lumina stood like a stone statue as she saw the statue of Osmirnis become a statue of Primus. Time stood still, and Primus took over her statue to speak with Lumina. She fell to her knees to honor Primus, but Primus stopped her and said, "It's okay, you don't have to kneel. I don't like it when gods do that. So let's get to the most important part. Since you've decided to become Mortis' wife, it shall be so. In about 30 days, your wedding shall take place, and this vow shall be directed at the first Holy Artifacts. That means it's serious for you because gods don't usually get married or very rarely. I hope you know what you're getting into."

Lumina became nervous. "But I already have a husband," she said nervously.

"Oh, do you? I didn't know you had already made a vow," said Primus confidently and with a self-assured smile.

"No, we never did, but Tenebris and I were together for 10,000 years," said Lumina intimidated.

"I belong to the gods who really know everything. Whom do you want to deceive, me or just yourself? You haven't had anything serious for thousands of years. He treated you like a burden and only gave you little announcements when he needed something. So either I know that you really stand behind Mortis, or I will remove you. So decide. I'll give you 20 days because preparations need to be made for big days, and the sooner the better," said Primus with a stern tone to Lumina, then she disappeared, and the statue became normal again, and time went on.

Mortis stood up and wondered why Lumina was frozen in place. He leaned down to her and went with his forehead to hers, which Lumina did not notice at first, but when she felt the contact and looked into those big sharp silver eyes, she became nervous and blushed, which made her push Mortis away slightly and turn around quickly. Mortis found it amusing and laughed loudly. He took Lumina in his arms and went upstairs with her because he wanted to teleport away from the altar to a cemetery near Grünheim to check on Helga, whom he was more worried about than he cared to admit.

Mortis activated his amulet while thinking about Grünheim. Suddenly, it became bright, and a kind of portal opened up in front of Mortis, Valeria, and Lumina. They were surprised and curious at the same time. Mortis stood up and said, "This should lead us to the vicinity of Grünheim. We should go and find out what's going on there." Valeria and Lumina nodded in agreement and followed him through the portal.

As they walked through the portal, they found themselves in a crypt again, which surprised the women. But as they stepped outside, they saw that everything had changed. Lumina could immediately tell where they were, but Valeria could not, as she was not familiar with this area or the cold. However, she was curious about where Mortis was taking them.

They cautiously approached the city and were stopped by the guards at the gate. Mortis explained that he was looking for Jochen. The guards were surprised that Mortis spoke so casually about the Baron, but when a soldier recognized him, he ran to Mortis, bowed before him, and greeted him warmly as the Count of Bamberg. The two guards nervously swallowed, but Mortis gently patted one on the shoulder and said, "You were just doing your job, and not everyone knows me yet. Keep up the good work."

Jochen was surprised when a servant announced Mortis's arrival, but he was happy to receive him. As Jochen walked to the castle entrance, he was stunned. As an honest man, he had never desired others or felt envy, but when he saw the two women at Mortis's side, he turned green with envy, as these two women could arouse desire in any man.

"Mortis, how can I help you?" Jochen asked awkwardly, his eyes fixed on the two women. "I'm here to make sure Helga is doing well. And when everything is settled tomorrow, I will surely take her with me. I hope you have a few spare rooms?" Mortis replied.

"Of course, how many do you need? One, two, or three rooms?" Jochen asked curiously. Mortis could tell that everyone was staring at his women, so he said with a mischievous smile, "Normally, I would only need one, but since I'm a guest, give me three rooms."

"Don't get so full of yourself, you rooster. As if that bothers you. You just want to rub it in my face that these are your women too. Or am I wrong?" Jochen asked, slightly annoyed. Mortis grinned and patted Jochen on the shoulder, then said, "Take the two women to their rooms and take me to Helga."

"As you wish, Count," Jochen said somewhat sarcastically, as he still could not imagine how Mortis could become a Count.

Lumina was surprised by the events, as she did not know much about Mortis. One could say that her decision to take Mortis as a man was hasty and impulsive, but that only made it more exciting, and she looked forward to this adventure. Valeria was also surprised and was about to ask Lumina who Helga was, but she did not show her curiosity and went to her room without a word, where she sent a servant.

Helga looked very weak and sat in a chair by the window, looking out into the world and wondering what Mortis was doing and whether he was worried about her. Then the door opened, and her husband stood in the doorway with a shy and concerned expression on his face. But when Helga saw that Mortis was there to check on her, the world was okay for her. She was about to get up and run to him, but he was faster and prevented her from moving unnecessarily.

Helga cried tears of joy, and Mortis wiped them away. He held her in his arms to comfort her and support her during this difficult time.
