Rumors quickly spread about the wedding of Elton and Livia Belovich, and about the strangeness of it all. The wedding itself, like most Barovian weddings, was devoid of pretense and fairly ordinary; however, what happened before and after the wedding got underway caught the attention of most and easily provided the water needed to power the rumor mill. The reception, so it is said, consisted of a man in a bear suit brutalizing and strangling the life out of a Gundarakite rebel. Even more interesting is what happened before the wedding: Dragos Dumitrascu, the father of the former Lieutenant Eugen Dumitrascu, launched into a vitriolic rant against Elton Belovich, calling him and the rest of the garda "corrupt and rotten" and continuously demanding the whereabouts of his son. The consoling words of the Lieutenant did nothing to sway the old man's stubborn heart, and his anger grows more and more potent with each passing day..
