    Summary

    We are born in the Vault. We die in the Vault. No one enters. No one leaves. Accordingly, Jonathan Wheeler has spent the past nineteen years of his life in Vault 101. He was born there, and so, he will die there.

    Or so he thought.

    Jonathan’s father has fled the Vault, and Jonathan has little choice other than to go after him. Before he knows it, the sheltered life he once knew has crashed and ionized around him in the ruins of the District of Columbia. Now, his only friends are a pistol on the verge of breaking and a bitter old Ghoul who probably hates him.

    So the saying goes, no good deed goes unpunished. Especially in the Capital Wasteland.

    Summary

    The Courier walked away from Goodsprings with no memory of anything-where their home was, where they came from, or who they were. To them, it didn't matter all that much.

    Summary

    This is a rationalist and effective altruist take on the Last Herald-Mage trilogy, inspired by HPMOR, r!Animorphs: The Reckoning, and other works. From a starting point of "what if the characters were trying to be reasonable?" and "what if Leareth was a human being with real, complex motivations, rather than a cartoon villain?" I am seeing where it goes.

    Meta note: this fic is accessible regardless of whether you’ve read canon. It starts out a little slow, and book 1 is kind of a different genre from book 2 onward. Additional warning that book 2 onward gets pretty dark and this doesn't really let up. There will be 11 volumes.

    Major themes include the complexity of thinking about ethics, the challenge of taking on problems in the world that seem insurmountable, and trying to do good while dealing with serious mental health issues. The characters do not start out masters of rationality, but they do learn from their mistakes and grow as people, and do their best to help support each other.
