A Siren's Call - A HWFWM inspired story

Earth was never supposed to know about the wider cosmos, let alone survive it. But years after the dimensional crises that nearly tore the planet apart, Earth has stabilized into a strange new normal. The magic that flooded the world didn't recede; it settled. Now, Essence users and Monsters are no longer hidden in the shadows—they are the new global normal, navigating a world of magic, untamed astral zones, and the lingering legacy of the man who broke their reality to save them. Nineteen-year-old Ame has never seen a real sky. She has spent her entire life inside a retrofitted, high-tech astral space bunker, hidden away from a changing Earth that survived the cosmic crises of the past. To Ame, reality is a world of reinforced alloy walls, automated hydroponic bays, and the steady, hum of a mana locked aperture. But the bunker isn't just a sanctuary—it’s a training ground. What to expect from this story: - xianxia -An inspired setting, as it still takes place in the setting of Earth after the events of book 6 of He Who Fights With Monsters - A coming-of-age story and a mixed cast of characters - Some New and some Known essences and abilities. (I have made new  essences and abilities, but I have tried keeping them inspired with the resources of the books, wiki and discord for examples: using Mythical creatures for confluences and using known abilities like “Crystallise Mana” as referenced powers ) - A Slow Burn What to not expect from this story: - Characters from the original story of HWFWM (they are inferred but not directly named) - Heavy romance - Pallimustus
