"How is Alma doing? I Wanna See Alma!" I say throughout tears quickly, talking to a peculiar voice. The voice sighs and I get teleported into a large grassy plain, with some animals, mostly my favorites. Suddenly a tall figure appears in-front of me..and I mean like tall. Like ten foot tall. Suddenly a little circle appears in-between us, and then shows Alma in the circle. "She's just been crying, it's been seven days since you passed away, time passes by a lot slower than it does down there. She hasn't slept, nor ate, nor walked out of her room since you died. Normally Ymbryne's are only allowed to stay awake around three days straight, don't know how she made it seven. She's utterly destroyed. See, there is nothing I can do about this little one, and yes it does make me sad and I do have some empathy but I've seen a lot of things. Now, I'm gonna give you a job like Cupid, you know?" The figure spills out quickly, but I keep up. "Yes...I know Cupid." I stutter out after a while. "Yep. You are gonna put people in love or break them up, you can choose. Walk over to the end of that grassland and look over, you can see the earth. If you want to go down there, just ask me, but know, nobody can see or hear you." The figure finishes, then hands me a bow.

I stare up at the endless blackness above, bored as I shoot my heart arrows straight up in the sky. There's no point in doing anything anymore, up here I don't have to sleep, eat, or do anything really. I learned that no more I have wings, for I don't need them up here. I don't have any abilities up here but down there I do. I also learned that there is another 'goddess' that specifically I think her and the other one are together, I have yet to get either of their names or their looks yet. All I know is one has white wings, one has black wings.  "I'm really worried about her..this is supposed to be a place of happiness and love, and I even gave her a love job to help!" I hear one whisper. "I'm sure she'll be fine..maybe. She just seems to love that Alma so much, she's grieving more than Alma is. They are soulmates, definitely." I hear the other one say back. I walk up to them. "Can I go see Alma?" I ask for probably the 50th time today. "Sure darling, just be back before reset down there" one says again. I drop my bow, for having no need of using it. I look beside at my wings she gives me to go down there and come back up.

I stare at Alma, who just lays in the bed, crying. "I'm sorry lovebird..wish you could see me, or hear me." I say with a gulp as I look at the beside table, where the ring lies inside. "Miss P! Time for reset!" I hear Emma yell. Alma forces herself up and makes herself look presentable before walking downstairs, not in the same confident way she used to, but a slumped, tired looking woman who worked all day. "Better get going, I love you Alma." I say as I take off. Every time I go down there I make sure to tell her I love her, she may not be able to hear me, but when I do it she smiles. 

I stare at a new ward Alma has got from above, she's been happier when he arrived. I think his name is something like 'Oliver' but he seems the least of interest of her, I'm pretty sure he's gay if anything. He seems pretty cool, one thing I don't get, he can see me. Interesting. Next time Alma and Oliver are close I shoot a breakup arrow at them, before walking off. "Could it be possible just this one specific person could see me?" I ask light wing, I've just started calling them light wing or dark wing. "It could be, but that would mean that you have been visiting too much. You need to cut down on visits there darling, or else eventually you'll turn back into human." Light wing explains. "I can turn back into human! No way! Please please please please please can I go down there?" I beg. "I'd have to talk to dark wing, but possibly. Wait for a little bit." Light wing says with a nod. I can't believe it! I really hope dark wing agrees..I'd do anything to See Alma again.

"We have both decided." Light wing says as her and dark wing gather me together.
