Hello.

I am in need of legal advice regarding a private matter:

Is a marriage contract legally binding if one or more parties involved were under the influence of spiritual possession while it was officiated?

Thank you for your assistance.

It happened with someone I know from my own world. They appeared for some time, left, and returned again not long later without any recollection of their time prior. Both in our world and on their return.

I had asked other riftfarers who have been in this world longer, and it's not uncommon for it to happen.

[ She hadn't even considered the possibility of being brought back to this world a second time... And then to lack her memories of her first stay as well? Nope, don't like that one bit.

It takes a bit for her to respond. She had been hoping that his answer would be more hearsay and less direct experience. ]

I see. That is [ terrifying ] troubling.

I know it's not something you may have wanted to hear, but as someone in a somewhat similar situation as yours, I thought it prudent.

[Some may just reckon it no different than the risk of death, but with that potential of a return with no memories, that kind of loss may be even harder, like witnessing someone with amnesia and worse, as there may be no way to recover those memories.]

Which is why I say that if there is a chance at all, this may be your only one. And having lost my own chances before, I find it worth taking.

[ The knowledge that she will someday return home (because she assumes this is an inevitability) becomes more and more unpleasant to consider the longer she stays in this world. She loves her home, her friends, her world... but she is coming to truly love her home and friends in this one too. Zelda at least took some comfort believing she could take this world home with her as a memory. The thought of losing these memories is bad enough... If she left and then returned with no memory of her time here, it would break Darin's heart. ]

A similar situation? Are you also involved with a riftfarer from another world?

We're from the same world, but we have no chance to meet again should we ever depart from this one.
