Lost Souls

We were all born with soulmates, and a ring.

A ring that signifies your soulmate's existence, emotion, and can tell if you've found that person or not.

But it also has its dark ends, for the ring turns black and can only come off if your soulmate dies, eventually fading into ashes.

But what if it has turned black, but hasn't come off? What if your soulmate dies without you ever meeting them? Would you risk everything to find your soulmate before that would ever happen?

A story where his soulmate starts to fade away, but he wouldn't stop until he finds his other half first. A story between life and death, would he risk it all?
