In the village square, under the Silver Oak, romance is also expressed through the weaving of tail-braids. To allow another to groom and braid one's tail with wildflowers or enchanted silks is an act of extreme vulnerability and intimacy. A centaur with an unbraided tail is seen as "Open to the Wind," while intricate patterns signify a "Bound Path."

The climax is not a wedding under a church arch (which a centaur cannot enter). Instead, it is a new ritual. Perhaps the village builds a "joint home" with a sunken human bedroom and an open centaur stall. Perhaps the human learns to ride? (But be careful—many centaurs find the concept of being "ridden" deeply offensive unless framed as mutual trust. Better to have the centaur offer to carry the human only when tired or injured, a gesture of ultimate care.)
