A young man, looking to be about the age of 21, walked into the room, closing the door behind him. He had on regular old teenager clothes.
"Hello, I'm Arashi. Most of you know me; I'm the mayor of Tokrial. I'm here to give you your Charms and to instruct you."
He sat down at the head of the table, pressed a button on his inside of his jacket and a young girl walked in with folders. She too closed the door behind her. She looked to be about the age of thirteen. She walked around the table, placing a folder in front of each teenager.
"Inside each of these folders is a picture of your to-be Soul Mate along with information about them including their name, rank, job, etceteria. And your Charm. As you all know, The Journey is filmed to the point where you meet your Soul Mate.
"When you meet your Soul Mate, please act how you will now. Act as if you are just meeting them.
"My advice; take the trains, check how much your Charm glows, and remember that there are cameras. Any questions?"

Cal was confused. It was all an act? Teens would know who their Soul Mates were all along?
She opened her folder and found the picture of a blonde boy with bright blue eyes whose name was Max Lynx. He was a Enchain, a Mechanic. He looked kind and happy and Cal found herself smile a little.
"Do our Soul Mates know who we are?" she asked.
"No, they do not. Their reactions are pure," Arashi stated.
