This is a ‘He Who Fights With Monsters’ Fan fiction. Spoiler alert - I’d probably suggest reading up to at least book 4/5 maybe 6 of He Who Fights With Monsters to avoid any spoilers of themes I’ve explored. SCHEDULE. After a short break I’ve moved into a Tues+Thurs release to compliment the Patreon release of HWFWM, If I write lots then I’ll add in some Sat/Sun I’ve followed the story for years and subscribe to Shirtaloon’s Patreon and can honestly say it is the best story I’ve ever read. This is my attempt at staving off the addiction of waiting for each chapter to be released online by writing my own parallel story in his universe. I have no writing training just a fair bit of imagination and enthusiasm. So far I have an entire book written (pending editing) and started on the second. Please bare with it in the beginning as I was getting used to putting my imagination down on a page. I hope anyone enjoys this.  Originally conceived as an experiment generating essences and powers for me and my brother. Extended to our significant others we had four characters to play with so I made a scenario battle for fun. This turned into a few chapters and onto the start of a story.  The timeline is not entirely finalised, certainly after book 4, I’m waiting for Shirtaloon to expose more of the goings on from Greenstone post book 11/12 to say whether or not my books happen before or after the monster surge.  The story follows two brothers and their wives who are snatched suddenly from Earth with no knowledge of magic and whisked away to Pallimustus. Their arrival is cushioned somewhat by powerful beings who are elusive as to the reason why.
