The mage promised that he would protect them the best he could. The spell wasn't enough to keep them together but one day though many obstacles lie ahead they would find true happiness. He knew that's what she would want and so used the eclipse to pull out two pairs of silver thread from the celestial realm. Casting one of each into the children then sending the pair to their chosen one knowing that the thread would find the person that would bring it back together and make it whole again. The linking of the soulmate thread was complete. One day they would find happiness.
