The Ibero-Ruthenian union, is a dynastic union between the two planned countries Iberia and Ruthenia in the upcoming season of Pixlies.
Marriage[edit | edit source]
The union was formed by the wedding of Iberian emperor Saar and Ruthenian tsar Maurice. The ceremony was held in the ancient Temple of Cádiz, an important site for the Canaanite religious community. The ceremony was officiated by Etraud, incorporating elements of Saar's Canaanite customs.
As part of the ritual, a symbolic act was performed, whereby a baby from the city was chosen and sacrificed by the officiant at the entrance of the temple, symbolizing the union between the two realms as well as the support of the gods to this union.
"The city of Cadiz feels honoured by holding this ceremony." — the mayor of Cadiz commented.
The marriage marked the first gay marriage to happen in Iberia, as well as the first gay marriage of an Iberian emperor.
The marriage drew criticism from the "NOW news" network, condemning the use of child sacrifice in gay marriage and marking the wedding as the "start of a lengthy, violent chapter between the common sense folk like ourselves, and the "power bottoms" over at Iberia and Ukraine".
