[Because it has always been. Just three as one. Three as a part of a single prophecy. Three as a part of the only residents of the castle. Three clinging as tightly and as dearly to each other as two might when all the world turns against them. Everything else, that's formal. It's for the rest of the world.
They close themselves off from the world here. It is their corner of it, a corner more fiercely guarded than anything else. But that's not what it means to have vows, to have ceremony. That is intent declared to everyone else.
So Alucard had thought long and hard about that point, and he has asked the only people who'd be worth declaring that intent to beyond themselves.]
And the rest we shall invent. I spoke with Sypha's people. Their ways can work for three as easily as two. In many ways it...it is right. Their understanding of prophecy was how we were bound together in the first place.
So they'll know our intent. Down here shall have records. And I am open to whatever else you wish.
