…today.
Before my reputation takes an undeserved dip as a result of my purely academic question, I must take precautions to establish that I deal entirely in hypotheticals. Amidst broken Chains, I’ve no desire to reforge a bl__dy manacle around my own leg – voluntarily, no less!
But of course, some poor souls – and perhaps a few of the similarly curious soulless – find their hearts ache with that Eden-urge for companionship. Given that a rib no longer suffices and a Tax has been established in lieu of a Serpent in this soot-stained garden, I must ask: is the Tax on marriage permanently waived, or is it merely "resting," so to speak? I find a rather intriguing young lady’s only recently touched down in the Neath proper, and I fear that if the Feast’s set to end on the 20th, she won’t have a free evening before the 19th or even the 20th. I don’t know how time works specifically down here, and I worry – hypothetically, as has been previously established – that a proposal on the 19th would be cutting it close, if it cuts at all.
Endless thanks in advance for your answers, kind, cruel, or fictitious though they may be.
