    Summary

    Somehow, at some point in the past 24 years, trouble has taken a liking to Jaskier.

    Jaskier is just trying to survive, pay his rent, maybe make it big in the music world if he can. At the moment though, things couldn't possibly get worse.

    Surprisingly, they do.

    Cue a golden-eyed man who seems to know him (like, really know him), a beautiful woman who insists she's a mage, and terrifying, potentially prophetic visions showing him monsters and creatures the likes of which he's never seen before. All of which seem to insist he used to be Jaskier, a warrior bard hero, and that his destiny awaits.

    Well, at least he's got something to write songs about now.

    (Title from the song "A new brain" by I fight dragons, which inspired the story)
