Quick Notes [DO NOT SKIP]

To not clog up my blurb, I'll do it here. Quick disclaimers and stuff and for the peeps who like skipping through things like this, joke's on you.

This is an entry for Aim to Engage 2023, hosted by the Ambassadors profile. This is a contest that runs from November to December, where a flash fiction or a short story must be produced according to a set of prompts. As such, this story is based on the following prompt:

17 - In a world where soulmates are determined by a magical mark that appears on their skin, a couple struggles with the realization that their marks don't match.

This is part of my personal content celebration season where I go wild and bust out content that is outside of my plans for the year. I call this cluster of works the AUXPR2023. This means "auxiliary projects of 2023". Therefore, if I want to extend it to the coming years, they can simply be known as AUXPR202X. There will be a part called The AUXPR2023 Works at the end of this book, so you can go ahead and see what else I have coming up on this celebration!

This is a series of standalone short stories, all under one universe (rather, multiverse). Here is the list of titles under this series. All can be read without reading any of the works in the series or any from my vast catalog.

Pearly Lake Cabin
The Last Trace of Lily
The Mysteries of New Herestead
When the Doves Call
Traveler
The End of the World & Other Lies to Tell Yourself
How to Save the Dead
Cookies, Cures, Curses
To Catch a Falling Star
Our Youth of Blood
Of Pages & Daras
The Shepherd & the Silk Maiden
707: Match Not Found
What My Heart Finds, It Keeps
Dream, Weaver, Scream, Reaper
Don't Go Chasing Butterflies

This is an unedited draft. This is not line-edited so you'll see a lot of possible typos, some unflowy sentences, and most likely, some degree of bad phrasing. I see them all the time so don't worry, I'm way ahead of you there. No need to scream about it in my comments section.

I would advise you to avoid skipping anything in this story and that includes epilogues and the likes. Remember: everything is important in the Arcane Universes.

This story is set in a fictional world. Everything comes from my imagination and should be treated as such. I do my research and take inspiration from anything and everything but if there's something you feel iffy about, some detail that you think should not be there, please tell me so we can sort things out immediately. I will appreciate it. <3

And so, after all that, I will be ushering you to the literary venture I've always been wanting to try for so long. Expect all the things you'd expect in my longer works because I'm sure there will be some, if not more, of those sprinkled in.

The multiverse and its endless possibilities await you. Step in, and you'll be on your journey.
