Silver raindrops, golden clouds

Gold Soul spent much time with Candy Flower after that. They would go to the market of her little village home, and he would occasionally show her around his home, smiling as she gazed in awe upon the wonders inside the palace. Unbeknownst to him, his brother, Sombra, would often gaze upon them from the shadows. He envied his elder brother, since he had never discovered the secret to friendship himself. He immersed himself into his studies, pouring his soul into his work. No matter how many books he read, he could never find the answer. His mother and father both tried to pull him out from his self-made prison of books, but they failed each time. In the end, he refused to leave the library. He hid himself from his distraught parents, even going so far as to sleep among the bookshelves, his only friends. In the end, his parents gave up, having his meals sent to the library. The longer he stayed in the library, the more depressed he became. As the young prince slipped further into madness, he read nearly every single book in the library. One day, however, he found a secret book, hidden away behind a forgotten door in the library. It had a soft, minky green cover, with a lock of a similar hue. However, it wasn't locked. As he opened it, a light green tinge came to his eyes, and he smiled. At last, he had found his friend.
