Description
Acacia is one of many average girls in her town. Unlike the many others, she is destined for greatness or for peril (as are most main characters). In her town there stands an onyx statue of a maiden. The statue has a tale that has been spun around her many times over. What stayed true to every retelling was that her true soulmate would be able to bring her back to life. Whoever the soulmate to the Onyx Maiden was, would merely have to hold her marble hand and she would return to breathe oxygen once more like all others. On a day of celebration, Acacia was pushed into holding the marble hand and brought the statue to life. After the initial shock of the stories being true, people began to treat the maiden like royalty. Until the newness of her magical presence wears off, then they begin to look to Acacia. Why was she the maiden's soulmate? What was so great about Acacia? As Acacia is forced to spend her time with the maiden, she learns that their stories of her aren't so true. As the maiden is forced to spend her time with Acacia, she learns that there is more to Acacia than even Acacia realizes.
