Post # 2

Today is the day I wed Claudius. After a long night of preparations I am ready to leave for the wedding ceremony. I am wearing my mothers Tunica Recta (a traditional white tunic) with my grandmother’s vial. Its very special to me that these things have been passed down the family to me and one day I hope I can give it to my daughter! Well, hopefully my father was right about Claudius having a bright future in politics because if he doesn’t I will find no joy in this marriage!

    I accept your friend request Valeria!
    I'm on your side, but for which it is a wrong doing by marrying you! For you are my cousin! But I'll marry you for which we are meant to be... Your wardrobe sounds beautiful!

    Uncle Claudius, I don't have such a great feeling about this marriage. She doesn't sound too loyal to me. She is also your cousin...
