You and Eytukan were together before Eywa ever assigned you two soulmates. Even if the both of you assumed that you’d eventually be with other people, it didn’t stop your blooming and perhaps a bit secretive, relationship.
Eytukan loathed the moment Eywa would show you your soulmate, meaning you’d be with someone else who wasn’t him. He was hopelessly in love with you, even if it wasn’t that noticeable to the blind eye, it wouldn’t be hard to tell if you really looked.
After Eytukan watches the Atokirina crowd your body, the bottom of their tendrils tickling your body as they hover over you— the purplish light being produced from Vitraya Ramunong shines over your body.
He walks over to you, his fingers grazing yours as the Atokirina leave your body— dancing through the air gracefully. “What did Eywa say?” Eytukan asked, eager to know what message you received from Eywa.
He wanted to know if you were bound to him or to someone else.
