Hi, so this is my first fic (that I’ve posted). Fic title and chapter names from the song Sympathy for the Devil - The Rolling Stones.Here is a description of how soulmates and soul marks work: Soul marks are an indication that you have a soul mate. They never used to be a dangerous thing, but then people noticed that people with soulmates put their soulmate before literally everything else. They’re dangerous because how much they care about the person. In the past, people have killed others because of their soul mark. In older Monarchs, they outlawed it saying that they weren’t welcome into the country. Some simply just killed those with soul marks so they don’t have to deal with it. Then time went on and and people started to get used to it and saw those with marks as bad. Soon people with soul marks had almost no where to go and got tired of it. There was a fight and people then feared those with soul marks even more. Then governments got more and more aggressive with soul marks. The people feared soul mates even more. Having a soul mark is also seen as weak because you almost literally have your heart on your body. It was also a tactic used to help ban those with soulmates. To make them seem like less of a threat. To make people less afraid. To make soul mates less human. Around the ‘90’s people kinda calmed down but due to the status quo and the past, it’s still an issue. The past had more prejudice than the present. But some politicians agreed that soul marks are evil or some politicians didn’t want to change the law because backlash or trouble removing it because of how ingrained it was into the law. There used to be manditory tests for soulmates but because a soul mark can appear at any time during a persons life and it wasted a lot of money, the government stopped doing them.Many religions are against soul marks. Christianity in particular dislikes soulmates because it wasn’t in the Bible, and there was the idea that it wasn’t God that gave people soul marks so however they got them mustn’t be good. They were playing with fate, and fate wasn’t theirs to play with.
