    Summary

    “Did you hear there’s going to be a Concord Ceremony soon?”
    “Oh, really?” Ilya glanced sideways at the man on the horse next to him. Those ceremonies were practically a holy tradition in the kingdom, and always a very big deal. Not like Ilya really cared about such things.
    “Yeah. Some couple from Ashenford or something, my father said. They’re quite young, apparently, so that’s even more special.”
    “I’ve never been to one.”
    “What?!” Shane’s head snapped towards him. “You’ve never been to the ceremony? Are you kidding me?”
    Ilya was a little amused by Shane’s outrage. Of course, he would react like that. Ilya assumed that it was probably very high on Shane’s priority list to find his soulmate. “No, never. Not a clue what goes on there.”
    “Oh my god”, Shane said, exasperated. “Well, so first of all, the Concord Ceremony obviously is a ritual to create a fixed bond between two soulmates. You know that much, right?”
    Ilya smirked a little at Shane’s exasperated tone. “Obviously.”
    ---
    Or: Ilya is the son of a blacksmith and falls for Shane, the crown prince. Panic ensues.
