Chương 901: The Ordination (2)

"I do," Orion responded, his voice calm and steady, nodding firmly.

The Village Chief handed the black crystal orb to Orion, who accepted it with a bow.

Then, the Village Chieftess turned to Reena, gesturing for her to step forward. "Reena, you have shown extreme care and dedication for our village. Do you plan to stand by Orion, to lead with wisdom and compassion, and to nurture our people?" The Village Chieftess asked. 

Reena's eyes glistened with tears as she nodded. "I do," she responded, her voice firm as she fought back her emotions.

The Village Chieftess handed the beautifully crafted staff to her, and Reena accepted it with a respectful bow.

The Village Chief and Village Chieftess then placed their hands on Orion's and Reena's shoulders. "By the power invested in us," they both spoke simultaneously, "we ordain you, Orion, as the new Village Chief, and you, Reena, as the new Village Chieftess. May your reign be long and prosperous."
