IC Information:

 

When "former" Garlean Centurion Septimus Nerva learned that his business partner (Sigurd Sundsteigen) and company doctor (Khana Borlaaq) were to be bonded, the stoic man became replete with nostalgia and emotion.  Septimus instantly recalled the magnificent Garlean bonding ceremonies he had attended during his youth decades ago.  Memories of flowers strewn about long marble halls, columns of standard-bearing legates clad in dress uniform, and centurions wearing elaborate white officiant's robes brought a tear of joy to his third eye.  Eorzean bonding ceremonies, on the other hand, were a "joke."  It was past time for Garlean cultural outreach. 

 

Septimus instantly lectured the couple over a public link pearl channel (Amesoeurs) about the necessity of a traditional bonding ceremony.  He explained the tremendous beauty, historical significance, and importance of exchanging sacred vows.  Septimus insisted on organizing the ceremony and paying for all related expenses.  This shocked most listeners, as the "former" Garlean usually showed minimal emotion. Sigurd and Khana accepted Septimus' unexpected and gracious offer.

 

Perhaps Septimus saw the ceremony as an opportunity to sway the notoriously hedonistic couple from their "perverse and deviant" ways.   Or maybe he desired to introduce Eorzeans to the pageantry and magnificence of a traditional Garlean bonding ceremony.  His motives would remain a mystery.  The date, time, and scope of the ceremony, however, soon became public knowledge. 

 

Septimus initiated a propaganda campaign to alert the public to what he hoped would be the a traditional, beautiful ceremony worthy of Garlemald.  He arranged for third-parties to litter every major Eorzean settlement with fliers describing the date, location, time, and theme of the ceremony. The promotional materials featured subtle Garlean imagery and promised a sacred night to remember. Despite Septimus' grand intentions, a shadow loomed over the ceremony.  Those who knew Sigurd and Khana understood that their dispositions were far from pious, formal, holy, or proper.
