When Keefe died Sophie realized how much she relied on him. She hadn't done anything for days when a mysterious book appeared at her door. Getting lost in old memories from a different perspective, Sophie learns how to live without her missing piece...
It had been four days since her life came crashing down.
Four days since Keefe had jumped into the fire for her.
Four days since he burned.
She hadn't done anything since she had numbly climbed in bed that night. . . but today was different. Today she had to get up, had to move, and think.
She got out of bed slowly and looked in the mirror, she looked even worse than she'd thought. Her hair was completely out of control, and her dark circles were saggy and deep purple. Numbly, Sophie took a shower, brushed her hair, put on a dark evergreen knee-length dress, and stood in front of Vertina.

Sophie let Vertina walk her through braiding her hair up in a bun, covering up her dark circles, and adding a little sparkle to her face. Looking in the mirror she smiled sadly at how pretty she was. Keefe would have loved this dress, she thought. Sophie forced the tears to stop, knowing they would ruin her makeup.
Hesitantly, Sophie made her way downstairs. Almost immediately she tripped, falling into Grady's arms. She pressed her head against his chest and suppressed tears.
"It's gonna be okay." he whispered, before letting go. She walked with her parents to the leapmaster.
Sophie, Grady, and Edaline walked hand-in-hand through the gates of the wanderling woods. Only a few others had arrived so far, so the found a nice shady spot and leaned against each other in silence. Before long other people had arrived, and gathered near a stage that had been set up for the councilors.
Soon, the councilors arrived and the service started. Sophie zoned out as the councilors spoke and Lord Cassius stood to speak. She was lost in her own dark thoughts when Cassius's voice said something that caught her attention.
