"We all have a dark side, it's up to us to decide if that's the part we want people to see." River's life has never been easy. She is an aeteri that is always bubbly, happy, and keeping the memories of the most horrible things she has ever done deep inside of her. She hates remembering her time in the institutes, it only reminds her of the monster she once was but all it took was a rugged, angelic man to fall from the sky to remind her that beauty is deep within and love is a power that is stronger than anything else, able to conquer the darkest of thoughts. He is her fallen love. . . ********** This is a Short Aeterian Story about River and Alioth, two of the characters that came together in 'Titania', the third book of the Aeterian Series. Recommend reading 'Titania' beforehand. Enjoy:)
