Innocence had already been more or lost by the Dreemurr brothers, but the friends and memories they'll make along the way are certainly worth it. The question is: will they grow and learn from the pain and challenges along the way to get there, and also cherish the life, good times, and blessings they've been given? Disclaimers: -This novel is a story collection of the Wholehearted Saga AU, a canon-compliant/canon universe, post-pacifist timeline sequel for Undertale. To help enhance the experience, I HIGHLY recommend finishing the true pacifist path of Undertale first, or at the very least watch a playthrough of the true pacifist path before you read this story. -This episodic series serves as a sequel to Undertale's true pacifist timeline, but as a prequel to my previous work, "Wholehearted Half-Souls." Thus, the "Origins" collection is "part 1" in the Wholehearted Saga series, while WHHS is "part 2." -Each story is more or less stand-alone; you do not have to read the stories in the collection in order if you don't want to (even though I would recommend reading in release order). At the end of each short story, there will be an explanation as to why I wrote each work, and how it helps develop the world and characters for my magnum opus, "Wholehearted Half-Souls". -Mentions of real-life locations and phenomena are completely coincidental. -Cover was a commission from TC-96. She did a wonderful job. :) -UNDERTALE AND DELTARUNE ARE THE PROPERTY OF TOBY FOX. I DO NOT OWN THESE CHARACTERS NOR ANY PROPERTY RELATED TO THEM.

After the barrier had been broken and harmony between monsters and humans had returned, a new sinister force arises after peace returned to the land. When the darkness threatens to destroy a pair of brothers and the very society they rescued and freed, they'll have to work fast before the darkness consumes the brothers and the entire town of Ebott with them. Ambassador Frisk Dreemurr and Asriel "Flowey" Dreemurr will have to stay DETERMINED, that is certain.
