Introduction and Author's Notes

(The next work in my fan-adapted novelization timeline of the main Super Mario series)

Just when Mario and Luigi think things have gone back to "business as usual" back in New Donk City, a terror attack strikes their childhood home: the Mushroom Kingdom. After six entire years away from the place they grew up, the twins drop everything to return from whence they came, only to find that the situation requires more of their attention than they anticipated. Are Mario and Luigi ready to risk it all and leave behind a whole other life again?
