i wanna be like EXCUSE THE FUCK OUTTA ME but uh. yeah that was pretty common back in the day. it would just be a marriage on paper until she turns 18+ and then the marriage can either be consummated or dissolved depending on how everybody feels about it. you see it both historically and in fiction (marie antoinette and juliet capulet both were married off at age 13) and nobody thought this was weird. the point was to secure strong political allies for girls as quickly as possible in case their fathers died young, not to encourage pedophilia (strongly frowned upon even then because getting young girls pregnant just plain kills them).
