	While this memory takes place after [[reporting on Hamtunscire]] and completing the pacification of [[England]], it does not actually unlock until after that point ''and'' Ravensthorpe is [[A New Home\|renovated]] enough to reach Settlement Renown level 5. At that point, all residents including Valka will have arrived at Ravensthorpe; while they do not all have spoken lines, they are present at the wedding feast atop the hill (even if Valka has been [[A Wise Friend\|left standing]] at the docks since her arrival at Renown level 3). The main story can be completed as low as Renown level 4, which is the prerequisite to unlock and complete the pledge to [[Nottinghamshire\|Snotinghamscire]].

The main story can be completed as low as Renown level 4, which is the prerequisite to unlock and complete the pledge to [[Nottinghamshire\|Snotinghamscire]].

			If the player has not spoken to Gunnar since [[A Quiet Homecoming\|becoming leader]] of the Raven Clan, his comment praising her ascension to the jarl's seat will override his initial lead-in dialogue for this memory, allowing players to skip straight to the option to begin the wedding ceremony. If they exit the blacksmith's menu and start another conversation, the lead-in will proceed normally.

	The wedding event bears many similarities to the "Sigurd's rescue" feast in [[Of All That Has Passed...]]: First, this quest is also filed under the Ravensthorpe section of the quest log, separate from any attached main story arcs, and suspends all activities while the event is active. Fortunately, this event can be started at the player's own discretion by talking to Gunnar and does not require the player to progress through it immediately. Incompleted "startup" memories for side content—such as [[A River to Raid]] and [[A Distorted Dream]]—will be removed from the quest log entirely during the event and will be restored simultaneously when the event is completed. Any remaining renovations with dialogue follow the same temporary suspension logic indicated for the rescue feast. Lastly, like the rescue feast, the wedding's conclusion is formally indicated by a fade to black and Eivor waking up in her bed.

	At the end of this memory, Eivor has the opportunity to enter into a relationship with Randvi if they did not already enter one via the events of [[Taken for Granted]]. The dialogue for the romance option does not change even if Eivor is already in a relationship (e.g. with [[Petra]] or [[Tarben]]), nor does it change if Eivor had previously romanced Randvi and broken up with her. In the latter scenario, Eivor still speaks as though this is her first confession to Randvi, and Randvi will still reciprocate despite having made Eivor promise that their break-up would be definitive because she would not risk having her heart "broken twice."

	Beginning ~~and/or cutting off~~ a romance with Randvi via this memory does not ~~appear to~~ affect the dialogue or choices in Taken for Granted, either; even though that memory can influence the outcome of [[A Brother's Keeper]], and thus it narratively takes place before that memory and this one, it can be put off until well after one or both.		Beginning a romance with Randvi via this memory and/or breaking it off later does not greatly affect the dialogue or choices in "Taken for Granted," either; even though that memory can influence the outcome of [[A Brother's Keeper]], and thus it narratively takes place before that memory and this one, it can be put off until well after one or both. In an active romance, the choice at the top of the [[Besuncen Tor]] in "Taken for Granted" is skipped and proceeds to the romantic ending. If broken off, that choice proceeds normally, however a romance can only be restored by choosing the immediate romance option on top of the tower; the Flirt path to initiate a romance later in Ravensthorpe that normally unlocks after either of the two non-romantic options will not be restored along this order of operations.
