Love and Marriage Part VIII

Skiegs, though small, and unassuming are very passionate people.  When they want to show their affections for the one they love, they go to great lengths.  And though they are associated with ogres, not all skiegs are evil, they are just in it for the money...and to keep themselves unharmed since ogres are so much bigger then they are.

A male skieg, if they love a female skieg, will begin by showering her with gifts, everything from favorite foods to finally something expensive like jewelry.  The more items he can give her the richer he is saying he is, which is very important to a skieg.  If the woman approves of the gifts she will return the most expensive gift with a note asking him to share all his riches with her.  Afterward, a large, lavish wedding with lots of food and guests are held.  Skiegs measure their marriage by how much money they spent on it.
