Next to the lake…
The event area was lively.
Guests started arriving hours in advance. There were a lot of people from the Dark Howlers pack and the Midnight Guardians pack (everyone was invited), and they were eager to help out. It made them feel important. Some even brought food and drinks with them because Damon and Talia said they don't need wedding presents, so the setting up of the venue turned into a pre-wedding party. The mood was good and the area was ready before the scheduled time.
Evanora was standing next to Edgar and observing the crowd gathered. Hundreds of people were standing or sitting in small groups and chatting over drinks and snacks.
Evanora was particularly interested in humans. They looked like werewolves and witches, but their spirits and bodies were weak, and their connection with nature was almost non-existent.
