This story now has a sequel. Continue this exciting tale in Shadows Within the Heart!

Shadows Within the Light was my very first fic. Expect a degree of amateur writing. I have put this story on my list to rework it at a later date so that I can take what I've learned to make this story better. Until then, I hope you enjoy my little tale because it has been said that it's a hidden gem.

Be sure to leave constructive criticism as well. I welcome it and it will help me to improve.
