Reverse Isekai, I guess?
Merchant of Venice was a part of my curriculum two years ago, and somehow I still can't let it go even though I should be studying Macbeth for my exams right now(help)
I wrote this mainly as one of my enteries for the Open Novella Contest 2026
The prompt I used are prompt 2 and prompt 24
You can read this even if you haven't read merchant of Venice, but I'd recommend reading that before this to understand the real lore
