> After about 30 minutes of just roaming and chatting, I saw a vision of

> 
> went pale. She had these gorgeous green eyes, beautiful, and luscious

> 
> though the God's took an angel from the heavens and sent her to Earth to

> 
> angel smiled upon me. She gave me a small wave so I approached her. As I
> walked her way she whispered to her
> 
> friends and they turned and walked away. As I got closer she looked at
> me and smiled.
> 
> I introduced myself, and she said her name was Nora. A beautiful name
> for a beautiful young lady. The name Nora
>

> The romance began sweet and innocently. We saw each other a few times.
> You see, we lived some distance from each

> After the day of festivities, I accompanied Dona Leah and Nora back to

> 
> Dona Leah were discussing sword fighting. I was immediately intrigued.

> 
> be 18 before I could fight legally. We played a little more and then
> went back in to visit.
> 
> When it started to get late, I told Nora that the following weekend I
> would be out with friends back home. But the
> 
> weekend following we could be together again. She pouted a bit and we
> parted ways. If I had known this was the
>

>

> 
> The following weekend was planned for months. My friends and I were

> There was a tragic accident and 3 of the 4
>

>

> 
> She was told that I was with my friends, and that I was one of the 3
