Here are the rules we are starting
Nothing in the Temple District was this unattractive. Every entry here
was carved panels, decorative architraves, glass awnings, and gilded
keyholes. Her father had been a man of faith, but he used to say that the
churches here were like vampires—they weren’t meant for worship, they
were designed to entice and entrap. But this door was different. This door
was just a rough block of wood with a missing handle and chipped white
paint.
This door did not want to be found.
Yet it couldn’t hide what it truly was from Evangeline.
The jagged shape of it was unmistakable. One side was a sloping curve,
the other a serrated slash, forming one half of a broken heart—a symbol of
the Fated Prince of Hearts.
Finally.
When the gossip sheet in her pocket had first announced that the door
from the Prince of Hearts’ church had gone missing, few imagined it was
magic. It was the scandal sheet’s first article, and people said it was part of
a hoax to sell subscriptions. Doors didn’t simply disappear.
But Evangeline believed that they could. The story hadn’t felt like a
gimmick to her; it had felt like a sign, telling her where to search if she was
going to save her heart and the boy that it belonged to.
All stories are made of both truths and lies,
she used to say. What matters is the way that we believe in them.
The door pinched her fingers, drawing a drop of blood, and she swore
she heard its splintered voice say, Do you know what you’re about to step
into? Nothing but heartbreak will come from this.
But Evangeline’s heart was already broken. And she understood the
risks she was taking. She knew the rules for visiting Fated churches:

"There is no perfect life we are born into, and there is no escaping the awful reality of suffering. There is also no escaping the beautiful synchronicity of the heart."
There's no shame in caring or feeling someone else's pain. It is beautiful and, I think, why we are all here in this life together.
We all have that gift and ability to connect. Whether through music, or art, or poetry, or just through listening to another. There are a million little ways for our hearts to speak to each other...
I opened up my heart and found that my heart had the ability to connect with every other heart it met.
It was exhausting and beautiful and strange.
All at the same time.
