Heavy Metal Sky Sharks' Song
One upon a time there was a village to the west
a loving father tucked his daughter into bed to rest
before she slept she often asked her father for a tale
this time what she asked him was a question grand in scale
“Where does heavy metal come from, dad” she softly asked?
“how come when we go to concerts, everyone is masked?”
the father scratched his head and then decided it was time
to pass along the story of their village told in rhyme
“Long ago our village used to listen to Disco
that was all our people knew of many years ago
one day though, a monster rose up from the ocean deep
and started to attack us like some big annoying creep
We were all too helpless as that monster ran amok
but as fires were raging one old man would have some luck
he found an ancient manuscript which when was read aloud
flying sharks in masks appeared behind a magic cloud
They played a sound the likes of which our kind had never heard
solos on guitars that sounding like a singing bird
drums that pounded mercilessly til the Earth at cracked
the bass was pretty average, but but the vocalist was stacked
The monster from the ocean didn’t even stand a chance
while it ran away our village all began to dance
to this day our village celebrates those fateful days
and summon flying sharks with heavy metal on Thursdays”

Fantasy World Epsilon 30-10
New Dive Assignment: 0B5 Personnel: Citizen of Gamma G-037-072 Jonathan Kelly World Designation: Epsilon H-037-072-030-010 Classification: Pre-industrial Exotic World, significant outliers in biosphere including atypical flora and fauna. Quarantine protocol in effect pending more data and acclimation testing. Further anomalies include populations of morphologically distinct humanoids, and aberrations in otherwise normative physics laws. Causal chain appears provisionally stable. For the purposes of delaying onset of collapse as well as above mentioned factors, only one subject is cleared to Dive. Initial mandates shall proceed with scouting and surveillance. Further details are classified. Warning: All other qualifying personnel are currently dispatched. Refusal will result in deployment delays and possible unsupervised causal decay. Do you wish to accept this assignment? Note to Readers: This is not MC isolated in a new world. This is new world joins the multiverse. What I'm tentatively coining Subverted Isekai (Formerly I used 'reversed' but, as pointed out, that would be fantasy MC goes to the modern world. Hey, there's idea! Not this book though.). There is plenty of scientific and philosophical stuff; I know that can be a turn off for some. It has a strong bearing on the story, but is mainly covered in the 'Comments & Calculations' section (optional reading of course). If you are looking for an extreme suspension of natural laws with no technical considerations, you will not find it here. Formatting Notes: Audio chatter from characters that are not currently in the scene I format in "inverted commas and italics". Given the layered nature of modern communication, I thought this distinction was best denoted visually in my prose. Critique is welcome. Language Notes Jon is a South African ex-pat. As such he will use some Afrikaans colloquialisms plus a dash of Japanese. Most importantly he says “Ja” meaning “Yes”. Pronounced with a J sound like “yo” and an A sound like “bar”. As in: “Yo, let’s go to the strip bar.” “Ja.” And not the Rastafarian /jya/. Other words: Nee - /niya/ : no Juffrou - /yif-row/ : Miss Lekker - /lacker/ : nice, good, delicious Nooit - /noit/: never The rest is mostly swear words. Indisputably the most useful words in any language and simultaneously holding the least innate meaning. Fok - “fork” without the “r”: fuck Bliksem - /Bluksim/: darn, damn. Also common noun meaning damn person or thing. Donner - “Dorner” without the “r”: originally meaning thunder, can also mean darn or damn. It is often used as a verb meaning: ‘to hit hard’ Kak - /kuck/: shit Voetsek - /foot-sack/: go away
