This includes soulbrothers Cutter/Skywise and probably Dart/Kimo as well.

Dart answered him with, I care for you, but I'm not ready to make such a commitment at this time. Than Kimo replied with "Well maybe when next we meet you will be ready?"  Kind of like when Redlance and Nightfall shared their soul names and formed a Lifemate bond, instead of being just Lovemates.

By the way, what do you think is happened to Serrin and Bowki in all this centuries? Maybe Dart has some grand-grandchild among the Sun Folk.

The colors and effects are so rich on this one. Also Kimo's comment really highlights the human/elf difference and gives some insight into his choice to leave the Wolfriders and the elves' (non)reaction to that choice.  What's a few decades for elves that can live a few thousand years?
