Monster hunter Riagán knows three things for certain: Spawn must be burned, the Wall keeps the cursed north contained, and half-Hisirian children don't exist south of the barrier. Not until he finds one drowning in a river. Unable to kill the boy himself, he risks lawful punishment to save him.

𝘢 𝘥𝘢𝘳𝘬 𝘴𝘢𝘱𝘱𝘩𝘪𝘤 𝘧𝘢𝘯𝘵𝘢𝘴𝘺 When a sentient shooting star crash lands into Carolina Callista's gardens claiming that a great danger is coming, she doesn't quite know what to think. Especially not when the star -- who answers to the name Whimsy -- is unlike any moonchild she has ever met before. Soon enough, Caroline is utterly transfixed. But it'll take more than the pair's growing connection to save the moonchildren from what's to come. Which just begs the question: what sort of magic does it take to banish monsters born from nightmares? DISCLAIMER: 100% of this work belongs to duckywritez.
