(Note: Unlike Soif de Sang and Rötterdämmerung, this story will not be told in first person. Rather, it will be told in third person, it a sort of borderline fairy tale format. I say fairy tale, because, well, I may have been inspired by the beginning narration of the Disney version of Cinderella.)
(Anywho...)
Once upon a time, in a snowy little town called Aurora Skies, there lived a little family.
This little group, by the name of Helgason, lived comfortably in their stately home.
The head of the household, Lief, was a good man, who loved his three children more than anything in the world.
Though very invested in his job in business, Lief still managed to find time for his son and daughters.
His children were, by name: Karen, the eldest, Karl, the middle child and only son, and Kristen, the baby.
Although he was devoted to his three young ones, still Lief felt they needed a mother in their lives. Someone who would be there for them should any misfortune befall him.
But here is where this father is flawed. His experience with married life is...a negative one. For Lief has been married three times, each time thinking he had finally found his perfect match.
He had been wrong. Every...single...time.
Lief is a good businessman, a good parent...he is apparently simply not a good spouse.
But that didn't stop him from searching for his true love.
Not only did he want to find a wife, he wished to find a mother for his three children. One that would care for them as her very own.
So far, Lief's luck has been lacking to find such a woman.
But yet, through it all, Lief remains determined to find his soulmate. For with each passing day, this father only grows more determined, to make his little family finally, truly complete.
(End of prologue.)
Poor Leif. Haha, I like the poetry style you have going on. It felt fairy tale-ish as you mentioned.
