Notes

I’ve always wanted to write a story centered around past lives and the concept of soulmates, so here it is. Other tags include:

  • Black-haired Baekhyun because it’s the obvious choice
  • References to art, history, and music in general
  • Story takes place in 2021 but has fantasy elements
  • Lots of symbolism

I hope you all enjoy this as much as I did when writing it!

Chapter 2: I had this fic on my reading list for a while and I'm glad I finally had time to catch up. This is beautiful, it made me feel so many emotions, especially in the second chapter after Baekhyun's secret was revealed! 💖

The way you portray your characters and describe their thoughts and feelings is very creative. I think I fell in love with your writing style 😭 skfjkd I'll take a look at your other EXO fics too when I got more free time (uni is kicking my rn lol).
Also, the way you incorporated art into this fic is amazing! I don't think I've ever read anything comparable. As someone who likes art, I really enjoyed this as well.

The ending was so sweet and heartwarming, exactly what I needed. 😭 She became the goddess of light, ahhhh that's the most perfect ending you could have given these characters. 🤧 I'm melting hsjfhdjs 😭💖

Take my upvote and thanks for sharing this. 🌼😄
