    Summary

    Concordant Pairs, the concept of soulmates, had long ago become identifiable through a testing procedure whose details were carefully guarded by the Imperial Court. Maomao had never expected any of this to become relevant to her life. For most people, it never did. The Imperial Soul Registry only concerned itself exclusively with the imperial family, after all.

    Royal soulmates were, of course, considered matters of state.
