The Truth in The Lie
There was once a beautiful Gallifreyan named Lathae. She was the desire of every male that saw her. But Lathae was young and free- spirited. In all her two hundred and fifty years, she had never been in love. Her parents, worried that they would never get grandchildren, as Lathae was their only child, decided to make her promise that she would fall in love before she was two hundred and fifty five. Four years passed, and Lathae still hadn't fallen in love. Panicking, she decided to pretend to be in love with the next male to court her.
The next male who courted her was Stele, who had been deeply in love with Lathae for decades, but until then had been too shy to say anything to her. Her was overjoyed when Lathae told him that she returned his feelings.
Lathae remained with Stele for a decade, and realized that she had slowly, but truly fallen in love with him. She told him of her previous deceit, but begged him to remain, for she had truly fallen in love with him. Stele, seeing the deep honesty in Lathae's words, agreed, and the two remained together for the rest of their years.
