Would you risk everything and search for those you love, knowing no one else has returned? Einsamheim. A rumor-shadowed isle that rests by the misty shores of Galar, haunted by powers ancient as memory. When a group of students disappears without a trace, a reluctant Pokémon trainer joins the investigation, accompanied by her faithful old friends: Garnet, a reckless Raboot, and Jasper, a poised Floragato. What begins as just another missing-person case soon curdles into something far stranger. The island holds its own designs, shrouded by unnatural fog. The forests stand silent. The shores hide the bleached bones of those who came before. And in that gaping abyss, they will find themselves... Or vanish just like the rest. ⚠️Content Warning: Graphic Depictions of Violence⚠️ I do not own Pokémon or any related content, this novel falls under Fair Use.

Einsamheim. A forsaken isle adrift beyond Kanto's shores, strangled by mist and haunted by powers older than memory. No trainer dares trespass, yet Garnet, a carefree Cinderace, and Jasper, an anxious Meowscarada, are pulled into its depths by their master, hellbent on solving the mystery. Such is the lot of a Pokémon: to wrest meaning from a life never wholly your own and make the best out of the worst situation. Ahead on this doomed expedition waits only grief, ruin, and failure. But within that gaping abyss, they may discover themselves and find new purpose... Or vanish, as countless others before. ⚠️Content Warning: Graphic Depictions of Violence⚠️ ⚠️The story touches upon a variety of heavy topics such as grief and trauma⚠️ I do not own Pokémon or any related content, this novel falls under Fair Use.

Beneath the shadow of an ancient mountain lies an entire civilization of Pokémon who were banished long ago, forced to survive in the caverns. To the Surface, they are rebels, exiles, and criminals. To themselves, they are survivors. When Finch, an adventurous and free-spirited Jolteon from the Surface, is found half-dead in the caverns, his fate becomes entwined with Kuro, a careful and reserved Umbreon of the Underground. With time, the two slowly begin to realize that the line that separates their worlds is much thinner than they both were taught. Invisible tethers quickly form between Kuro, Finch, and a cast of characters fed up with the society their ancestors have formed. This is the story of how their crossroads tore down the walls keeping these two worlds apart.
