Sander Duwikag was in love with Izelle Sky. Had been since the fourth grade. There was only one problem, Izelle had a heart of stone. She hated everyone and everything, besides her mother, with such a venom it terrified snakes. The boys in the village wouldn't have cared if Izelle hadn't been born drop-dead gorgeous. Her long copper waves of hair mesmerized every man, boy, and child in Witzann. Her perfectly carved features and perfect figure, along with startling blue eyes that looked like someone had carved up the sky and put it in her eyes, made her a romance fantasy favorite. Sander had a leg up on all of those other boys though. He was going to be Chief of their small, yet important, village. Just as he got the courage to ask for her hand Izelle went on a year long journey to find herbs. Stella Woods decided to make her move right then and there. Her father arranged the marriage, and Stella got her dream man. Sander was disgusted by her looks. She was pretty of course, with clouds of black hair and chocolate brown eyes, but after years of wishing for Izelle Sky, Stella was a let down. Stella was pregnant when Izelle came back. For months she hid it, but finally she broke. Izelle was pregnant also, but she wouldn't tell who the father was. Only mumbling "Fae" a few times. Stella gave birth to a boy, Kyron, they named him. A hour later Stella was beyond furious. She has a beautiful baby boy, then that upstart, Izelle gives birth to twins, a boy and a girl. Arielle and Lythian. Then to top it all off, she runs away with the boy and leaves the girl with her grandmother, who was very poor. It didn't help the whole time after Izelle got back, her husband mooned over "perfect Izelle". The audacity! Sander sended thousands of people to look for Izelle and the baby. But they never showed up. Stella gave birth to five more children, hoping to fill the empty space in her husband's heart, but it never worked. Because Sander Duwikag was in love with Izelle Sky. Had been since the fourth grade.

All right, first segment thing done.  That wasn't as hard as I thought. Now all I have to do is pretend to be 6. Up there is Arielle's mom.
