[Year 1417 - 600 years ago]

 

There was once a deep enchanted forest. Everything was green and dark but the light filtering through the leaves and branches of tower-like trees are the ones that makes everything bright.

 

There was a community residing in the middle of the forest and everything was peaceful. It's not because it's just peaceful like the way it is but because there are people who's job is to protect them. 

 

During daytime, the normal people are free to do what they wanted to and what they have to.   But when the night comes, everyone have to stay on their houses or else, they will meet the thing that everyone was afraid of...

 

But there was a twin sisters who aren't afraid of anything. They are both great hunters and have abilities which runs through their blood. Beasts like animals, trolls, goblins, witches and even enchanted spirits are nothing compared to them.

 

Coming from a family of hunters and as a twin, aside from they didn't resemble each other. They both have distinct abilities and skills that distinguish them apart.

 

Yewon is the first child and the timid one whose specialty is archery. With her bow and arrows, no one can beat her aiming skills, not even her twin sister. She've got a nickname of "Archery Fairy" because of it.

 

The second child is more active and her specialty is handling knife and swords. During night time, she uses those blades to go through a lot of flesh and blood. But during daytime, crafting images of life in every tree branches is her favorite thing to do with those blades.

 

Aside from the two sisters, there are also hunters who protects their village but these two are just in a different level.

 

Just like normal siblings, they often fight and have some things they get envious with each other.

 

The second child is envious of Yewon's skills in archery. Since the day she was born, she had a mark of a sword on her arms while Yewon had a mark of an arrow. She likes bow and arrows more than blades but that was the thing that their fate chooses for them and they can't go against it. She was destined to hold blades and not arrows.

 

While Yewon was envious at her for having a skill that was rare amongst every hunter. 

 

Among everyone, the second child is the only hunter who can catch enchanted souls or spirits. Why? Because the glassbead of soul is the thing that their ancestors have given to her. And she can't pass it to anyone until the day she lose her last breath.

 

And that was the thing that Yewon was aiming for. She will do everything to get that glassbead just to be the greatest and the most powerful hunter. And that was the reason for them to set a barrier between them, and more of it is to lead them to do some unnecessary things that would only cause them a trouble.

 

On a particular night, the moon is on it's perfect shape and the second child likes it the most. She sat on the top of a tree and she lies her back on the branches of it. 

 

The wind blows refreshingly and she felt a raindrop on her arms. She spread her hands to feel if there is a rain to come but she didn't feel it that way. 

 

She decided not to mind it and just right before she closes her eyes, she sighted a light passes by in front of her.

 

That light was so bright and seems like magical to her eyes.But at the same time as a hunter, she won't give it an excuse.

 

"Who is it?" She gets up and stands on the branches of the tree holding her knife in a fighting position. 

 

"Is there someone here?" She asks but she heard nothing aside from the sound of the wind and the leaves falling.

 

"A troll? A Goblin? A witch Or an enchanted spirit? Show up and don't just hide! I'm willing to fight!" There's still no response and she thought that it's just the moonlight that hits directly on her face.

 

But then the wind started to swirl around her until it creates a light in the middle of it. The light keeps getting brighter and brighter until it burst out and spreads everywhere.

 

She covers her eyes but there she also lose her balance and she fell. Expecting the impact of her body to the ground, she didn't mind to open her eyes and just waited for her fate.

 

But then she felt like she's floating in the air and the time she get to open her eyes, she saw a creature who shines brighter than the moonlight.

 

She was slowly taken down until her feet touches the ground but her eyes and the eyes of

Chapter 1: Ooh... such a mysterious start. I'm assuming that Yuju is the source of that voice echoing in Sinb's head when she was sleeping (and ain't that scary already? it's like in horror movie haha especially with the darkness stuff XD). But jokings aside, I like the way you keep us hanging with the last scene. So apparently, Yuju (with the hanbok) has finally returned to meet with Sinb! Usually in movies, we see that important events happen when the sky was roaring with thunder and lightnings so it was pleasant to read something like that in fiction haha.
She's wearing hanbok, so I assume this is going to be a time travel fantasy story? Ooh I'm a er for this genre honestly XD
There are already a lot of questions in my head now. Whether if Sinb's obsession with capturing lunar rainbow has to do anything with the plot or it's just her passion. Whether if Sinb had a past life or not, etc.
The plot aspect is working great for me, but not quite the writing style. It's not about grammar (yours is good and you just have to proofread a bit and all should be fine!), not about your narration (it was nice and easy to follow) but it's about the presentation? Like how you make two(?) empty lines to separate each one-to-three-sentence paragraph doesn't work that well for me. Usually we do that to cut different scenes making the transitions less surprising to readers so in your case, you should consider making paragraphs longer and only separating that way when the transition really needs to take place (if that makes sense?)

I've never read a Gfriend story before and I'm not exactly a part of the fandom (though I do adore Yuju the multi-talented and Sinb the ice princess and they are my favs in GF actually) but I hope you still welcome me to read your story :)
