Summary: Acheron is the son of the Atlantean goddess of destruction. In an attempt to save his life, she sends him to earth to be born a prince. But he is treated like a curse from birth because of his eyes and the fortune another goddess said upon his birth; he will be the harbringer. Unable to kill the boy for the sake of the perfect twin, the king Acheron is born to treats him like dirt until his seventh year, then sells him to an Uncle and is trained to be the best prostitute in the world. Years of pain and humiliation follow. Saloria is an Eternal Soul, a creature created to destroy unruly gods. She will have countless lifetimes, but in her first, she is cheated. Born to a King, her beauty drives all insane with wanting, despite being blind from birth. She, too, is treated like a whore. They meet 11000 years ago and through betrayal and pain, find a love that will last forever.
Disclaimer: Everthing regarding Dark Hunters, the concepts of the gods, Daimons and so forth are by Sherrilyn Kenyon and I do not own them at all. I only own the idea of Saloria, who I came up with before I ever read the book, and Eternal Souls. Any obvious changes are my own. You get the gist of it.
Warning: Rape, murder, torture, pain, angst, crazy gods, and later in the story; true love. Dont like any of the aforementioned, dont read. Those who flame me will have the gods' wrath set upon them.
AN: OK, so, I had only read the first few chapters (up to the point Ryssa's diary stopped, I think), so I had NO idea what Soteria was like, or that the name I had created for Acheron's love in the end would be so close to the author's; talk about coincidence! But yeah. Basically, Acheron is my favorite person/book. I just HAD to make someone perfect for him; someone who had gone through what he'd gone through so that she could understand him totally. Basically, this story is mainly about Saloria, since you can read what happened to Acheron in the book so named, but I will give basic ideas for those of you who haven't read it yet (READ IT NOW!!!). This is my first fic, so please be kind. Well, anyway... I now present to you wonderful readers, a story of woe and joy, betrayal and trust, pain and pleasure, despair and hope, and most of all, love.
Saloria
An Eternal-Soul novel
by Lana Ves
Prologue
Existance. That is all most crave for. Even if they curse it, even if they hate it, all crave to exist. Everyone is afraid of the Nothingness, even the gods and those who govern the gods. But even if a god was to die, the god would still exist in some way. Everything has a soul, everything will continue to exist forever. Unless one is killed by an Eternal Soul.
Created seperately from the gods of old, created differently than Mankind, Eternal Souls hunt those with powers beyond human understanding that break the laws of Nature, and uterly destroy them. The Eternal Souls are not affected by the powers of gods, but they can absorb the powers so that Nature can continue to exist normally. For if one kills a god, the power goes free, and the think the god was associated with will also perish. They are incapable of dying, even when the body is destroyed; they will return with the next century. Never is the universe without an Eternal Soul lurking in the shadows, waiting. They will always return.
Those who know of Eternal Souls quake in fear of them, for they are the ultimate assasins. Those who dont know will learn if they ever stray from their path. Eternal Souls are pitiless, emotionless. They keep the balance and the peace. So be wary, ye gods that wish for more than thine lot; the Godslayers are watching, and are more cruel than thou.
