Crew's arrival at temple on Angel.
[OOC: From this.]
Aluthra and her novice Damiri are waiting very patiently, unlike two guests standing by her side behind the heavy curtains seperating the docking bay awaiting Serenity's approach.
"You look gorgeous, Sallie. No worries," the young blonde said for the thousandth time to the older woman, who looked like she was about to go before judge and jury. Sallie did look very fine; the makeup that the younger woman - Lilly, from their conversation earlier - had done up for Sallie suited her very well.
Sallie had asked as nicely as she knew how to see her son once they had arrived about twenty minutes ago; once the ceremony participants arrive however, they are kept apart from the witnesses until after the presentation. When Aluthra informed the pair that Serenity, which currently was registered to land under the name Tranquility, would be arriving momentarily, Sallie and Lilly were on Aluthra's heels as she walked to greet the newcomers on their platform.
The cargo bay door lowers, and Aluthra bows deeply to the disembarking crew members. Damiri stays behind the house priestess while Sallie and Lilly walk toward the ship with that the Companion can only assume to be very smirking grins.

Aluthra starts talking to another one of the ship's passengers, leading the entourage through the various wood-floored corridors which will lead them to where the ceremony is taking place.
Damiri is still in her rightful place, standing behind Aluthra.
Way behind.
Kind of near the cute one.

"Looks like we're in the house now."

"That wasn't what I meant, but -- " Another glance to Aluthra, who is far too involved talking to others to say anything to her. "Aluthra will be otherwise occupied once the ceremony starts."
A small shift of a smile.

A moment later, Damiri is back to the upright, silent Companion novice at Aluthra's side, leading others into their appointed spots for the ceremony.

Well.
Ain't that just.
