Lightning in a Bottle (karlnap)
To put it simply, this story is about two soulmates, a strange companion and narrator, and the adventure of a lifetime.
. . .
You're still curious, aren't you? Very well, I'll describe this story out in a bit more detail to you.
Karl is running away. Why? Well, he has a soulmate, and he's not too happy about it. He's seen the things love can do, and he isn't keen on having it for himself. His necklace had been dormant for 2 years and he'd thought that maybe his soulmate lived across the continent and he'd never have to worry about seeing them, but now the lightning was glowing, signalling that they were probably also in the Capital. It's a risk leaving the only thing he's known his entire life, the safety of the castle, but he has to get away from his soulmate. So, now he's walking away from the Capital, about to go on a wild adventure.
Sapnap, on the other hand, has been looking forward to meeting his soulmate for his entire life. When he wakes up the day after his 18th birthday to a gradually dimming necklace, he takes executive action and decides to follow his soulmate. The guy isn't much of a survivalist, but luckily he has a friend in the shape of an almost-god to help him along the way.
Is that enough detail for you? I hope so, because I can't explain much more without ruining the story. If you're still curious about what happens, go read the story for Jupiter's sake!
