The Tale Keeper: Last Romeo

Please Subscribe to read further chapters

Description

Would you choose to die once your true love was not reached?

Or would you only hug your knees, break down in tears, hide in the comfort of your room like a little kid who didn't get a candy?

Kim Sunggyu was chosen by the tale keeper to engrave a story in order to forget his sweetheart. Chosen to carve a story about burying the hatchet of the past, he must resolve his tart and bitter journey --at any price. Because everyone, who are in need of this tale, has to understand the real meaning of being broken-hearted; to fathom the true meaning of loss.

"Would you die for me?"

 

Foreword

This story was about Kim Sunggyu.

Who since childhood believed that every life was destined to have one true love. In fact, it meant almost all of you also have a similar story, whereas this story became a bit different from yours when Sunggyu yet to realize that love was a verb; and as a verb clearly it needed actions, not just feelings.

Forgive me not as commonly tale of love this is, this story must begin with separation. A painful separation at that, although actually in any eternal love story that you knew, there must be the word separation.

 

 

--

"Who are you?"

"I'm the Tale Keeper…"

"What do you want from me…?"

"I want you to just believe this one sentence, and leave the rest to the time." The old man smiled. Walking away from the park bench. Then disappeared. Right there and then. Before Sunggyu had time to realize it. Vanished as if swallowed by the earth.

Together with the thousands dragonflies.

--


A true lover would never give up until the death itself came to pick him.

 

    

There would be deaths, shipboards, battles and a lot of sea adventure.

"Your plot was amazing. The first part of the story was a bit rushed, other than that the pace was good. Sunggyu's character was the most sought of in the story, his emotions were really over-whelming, but realistically true. You have a way with your words. I did enjoy reading your story; mainly because the plot was kind of new for me. The scenes were interesting, although at some point, it came out lacking."

 

Reviewed by ss501exolover from Eternally Exotic Review Shop (72/85) ~ 84.7

"I really loved your fitting title, it sounded so much like a bedtime story that parents would share with their children. This story was beyond original, it has been such a long time since I've read a story in where our main character is trying to heal from a painful experience. Your emphasis on real human emotions was by far the best I've seen. Your scenes were very descriptive and provided clear images of the storyline, it filled with new adventures and suspense."

Hi, I logged in after eons to update my A/B/O one shot compilation (maybe any of you have read it, about infinite omegaverse), just to found out all of my stories are gone. /sobs

It's either a glitch in this site or my annoying sister did it, I'll interrogate her later. So, for replacement I'll upload this story (in the mean time I'm going to dig my old laptop to see if I still had the copy of my stories. Hope I still have it so later I could re-upload them)

 

Anyway, I'm being uncreative with the title of this story, and be (more) real uncreative since this story is actually from a novel, with the change of the characters name.
