Title: A Hand from the Shadows
Fandom: Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell (TV)
Length: 18030 words
Rating: 6+
Genre: gen, post-canon
Characters: Jonathan Strange/Arabella Strange, Gilbert Norrell, John Childermass

Beta: aurilly
A/N:This story mixes the book and show canons, although I do mainly stick to the show, and it would make little sense – plot-wise – if it took place in book canon, where things such as the fate of the magicians’ houses are not left up to our imaginations. I did incorporate some elements from the books though, like Vinculus’s wives.
Please note that Dr Thomas Young is not my invention. I know little about the man, so I’m quite sure he is unlike the real person, who was one of the more prominent scientists of his day.
At least some of the remaining misspellings are an intentional nod to the book.
Originally written for vargs during Yuletide 2017.

Summary: The Raven King's spell is not yet done and while Strange and Norrell have to find their way back home, Arabella Strange and John Childermass have different problems to deal with.
