Summary
Written for Yuletide 2014 for zephyrprince, who requested: “What I would like to see from this series would be some gen fic that explores how the magic system works in more depth.” Anyway, neither completely book canon nor movie canon. I ended up writing in the POV of Howl, still heartless, shortly after his first encounter with Sophie, musing about the differences in magic between his two separate worlds. I really hope you enjoy it, Zephyrprince. I enjoyed writing it. Two of my Betas, more familiar with the movie than the books, inquired about Howl in Wales, because I speak of Howl’s magical education there. I found a citation from howlscastle.wikia which summarized his early life in Wales succinctly:
“Howell Jenkins was born to an ordinary family in modern-day Wales. However, he himself was anything but ordinary. Gifted with a natural talent for magic, he began studying it. Even in college, he wrote his thesis on magical spells and charms, and joined a group of other gifted magicians on Earth.”
I want to extend a heartfelt 'thank you' to my Betas IgnobleBard, Thevina, Himring, and Zeen for reading and offering me concrit on this story.
