She Chose Fire
Today was October 31st in the human world, Halloween night.
That evening, kids and young people in town wore all kinds of strange costumes and paraded through the streets. They lit candles and made wishes. The whole street was packed shoulder to shoulder, loud and lively.
It was Seraphina's first time in the human world since losing her memory, and everything felt new to her. But when she remembered she had a mission, she forced herself to rein in her curiosity, even though her eyes kept drifting toward the festivities.
