“father please don't forgive” by ~Solaces

A fantastically written epic example of the pure awesomeness of

A beautiful yet sad piece of a poor, lonely girl begging
for change on the side of the road, from the eyes of a

FD Prologue: Once upon a time.
Once upon a time…

The Fates never read any of the stories, just closed the book s and placed them on the shelves of the past. These novels of life would remain untouched except by dust. These entities would never sleep and would never make any mistakes. The Fates are assigned to cities, towns, single people, any and everything and have written about love, pain, happiness, and all that lies between. Fates have killed off the young and allowe

"Prologue: Once Upon A Time" by ~MeAsTheNarrator

This little known author writes an intriguing prologue to
