A/N: Hey! Just a quick note here. As far as I'm concerned, the way I'm doing this story is pretty original, as I haven't seen any other fics done like it.

He was a skilled archer, handsome and lithe, but stubborn in every way.

"Though, love was not mutual; not for quite some time. It took a strange event to bring them together, as if by fate they became lovers. But fate can be cruel in many unexpected ways..."
