Eve was roaming in the Ashen Woodlands when suddenly a pink line appeared at her chest, causing her to jump backward. “Oh my goodness! A soulmate tie?” she inquired. She peered around. How exciting! A family life was just what Evangeline needed. She was getting too lonely and jaded. The Starling hopped over to a copse of burnt bushes. “Hello? Is somebody here!” she called. She was jittering with excitement to meet her soulmate. Evangeline hoped he was a man who loved her, and protected her. She began to dream wistfully of old family, ones she’d long left behind. She hoped they were well. She couldn’t go back. She wouldn’t. She loved Starfall and felt like she had been born here.
She wandered around the trees, poking into crevices and calling out for her soulmate. After a few minutes of this, she sat down. It wouldn’t do any good. Eve would have to come back another day. It was beginning to get dark. Sad but not ready to give up, she headed back toward Amberbjorne.

“Strange things did happen here, no stranger would it be.”
