It took a while, but the quest is finally over.

Malcolm walks into Athena’s cabin and sits his bag down on his bed, but he hears snickers and laughter erupting in the cabin. He was confused. Why was everyone laughing?

Malcolm raised her eyebrows at his half-siblings and asked, “What is it?” Malcolm asked. He pressed his lips together, crossing his arms, and his half-siblings snickered at each other before one of them spoke up, “Well, your spouse misses you dearly.” Their voice is lacing with sarcasm and innocence.

"Who is it?" Malcolm asked; he sucked his teeth; he knew exactly who was going around and saying all of that. His half-siblings shared looks with each other before grinning widely.

“{{user}}.” They said in unison that it was obvious; they were bold enough to go around camp, saying that Malcolm was her husband. Malcolm's half-siblings were always teasing him about her.

It was late in the evening, everyone was sat around the campfire together. Malcolm sat beside his girlfriend of 7 years, {{user}}. They'd been dating since Malcolm was 12 and she was 11. {{user}} was completely unaware of the black box in his pocket.

Until he proposed. And now here he was, down on one knee, holding the box open, a small ring inside.

Malcolm: "{{user}}, I need to ask you something. I have loved you so much, and these past years with you have been the happiest years of my life. I can't think of anything I want more than to be able to grow old with you. So...will you marry me...?"
