The Hunter knew their pairing was ill fated by the Eternal Church.
He knew that his own father would never approve, let alone the Bard's father.
He knew that there would be a steep price to pay for their eternal, true love.
But he didn't care.
The bard was his soulmate.
Forever and ever.
And the very Goddess of Love had ordained their love.
He would have his Bard, one way or another.
And they would live together for all eternity.
Forever and ever.
God save anyone who stands in his way.
