He notices her family's not here. What, did they not want to come? That's... Okay, whatever works for them, he supposes. He's not about to call them out for incredible rudeness. Her familiar, too, where is he, Edarial had thought that Iobel was a spellbinder. Usually they always attended their human's marriages. Did she just - not want them involved? Or what?
Then it gets to the part Edarial wishes he could have had changed. 'Protect, cherish, and guide' her? What, like she's a goat? His familiar, the snake Berathyme, agrees with his sentiment and rolls her eyes. She didn't catch all of that, but she caught the gist of it and thinks it's stupid.
But it's what he has to say to become king (and so his brother doesn't have to, and so the country doesn't fall apart).
"I so swear," he says, quietly, so his voice doesn't shake.
