I didn't know much of my history, much of my past.. and somewhat uncertain of to which family I belonged to. The only clue I had was an oddly shaped scar on my foot. It looked strange and clearly marked there as if it were intentional. I went upon my life with a whole in my heart, trying my best to fill it with friends, but it was never the same as knowing my true kin.

Indeed, I had all but given up on the notion of ever finding my family when one fateful day, I had met a stranger - the citizens in the kingdom would come to call him Scream. He and I became instant friends. There was an unexplainable bond between him and I that I couldn't explain at first. It wasn't a romance, that much is for certain. However, it was a bond like no other that I had ever experienced.

We became closer and closer each and everyday. I decided to invite him one morning to an event that was dear and personal to me. I was hosting a Diviner event in the home of the Diviners, in the middle of the water center. Everyone was required to remove their footwear in order to enter the water pool. It was then that I saw the marking, the very same marking I had on my feet, was on his.

I didn't mention anything right away but rather I began to ask him about his family and what he knows of them. Through time and trust, I opened up to him and told him that we are in fact siblings. At first, he outright refused to believe me - but when I showed him the scar, he smiled and welcome me with streaming tears and a warm hug.
