Eyes widen slightly at the sight of his parabatai coming in without warning, alarm slips into a smile however meek. “ Ahh, I suppose I should be considered lucky, then ? How about you make me whatever your best meal is, then. ” His appetite wasn’t entirely there from not feeling well, but how could he say no to Will ?
“ without direction i’m afraid you’ll be eating boiled eggs and toast. ” straight to the kitchen, he assumed James would follow him as he went. he began to unpack what he’d brought – a little of everything, as he wasn’t sure what his PARABATAI could or would eat.

Early life
Will was the son of Edmund Herondale, a former Shadowhunter, and Linette Owens, the mundane whom Edmund left his Shadowhunting life behind for. As dictated by the Nephilim Law, Will and his sisters, Ella and Cecily, being Nephilim, were still welcome to becoming Shadowhunters. Hence, Will was asked twice in twelve years, both times he refused, after being raised to believe that Shadowhunters were not good people and that the lives they led were dangerous and monstrous.
However, shortly after the second time he was offered, at twelve years of age, Will was going through his father's old things when he found the Pyxis that held the Greater Demon Marbas and opened it, unwittingly unleashing the demon. The demon then went on to attack him, and Will was protected by his older sister, Ella, who was subsequently poisoned by the demon. Before it left, Marbas claimed to have placed a curse on Will, telling him that those he love will die. When Ella died the next morning, Will was wracked with guilt and sorrow, believing himself to be responsible. Will then immediately decided to leave and join the Shadowhunters at the London Institute to keep his family safe.
Even in London, Will was haunted by the demon's curse. Will remained distant from the other inhabitants of the Institute, Charlotte and Henry, not wanting to bring harm to them by becoming attached and learning to love them. This held true even for guests at the Institute. When he was twelve, an Enclave Christmas party was held at the Institute. There, he found the diary of Tatiana Lightwood, a young Shadowhunter who was greatly infatuated with Will. Will proceeded to humiliate Tatiana by reading her poetry for him out loud at the party, earning the spite of Tatiana's brother, Gabriel. He was attacked by Gabriel for it and, despite his own lack of training, Will bested him in the fight and even snapped his arm, further humiliating Gabriel. This instigated the beginning of a long rivalry and misunderstanding between the two.
When Jem Carstairs arrived from Shanghai in 1873, Will tried to be rude to the boy to immediately dissuade him from trying to befriend him. However, Jem refused to be intimidated by Will and insisted in training with him. When Will learned that Jem was ill, however, Will allowed himself to become close to the other boy, seeing him as his "great sin", convincing himself that since Jem was already dying, the curse would be worthless against him. When they were thirteen, Will asked Jem to become his parabatai and when they were fourteen, they underwent the ceremony.
Tessa and the Magister
Will and his parabatai, Jem, found Emma Bayliss, who had been murdered by the Pandemonium Club, she was being followed by a demon that was killed by Will. They found a dagger with the 'ouroboros' symbol on it's hilt.
Will rescued Tessa Gray from the Dark Sister's house, where she had been kept prisoner. Tessa threw a china jug at him, thinking he was the Magister. However, it hit his arm and injured him. He took her back to the Institute after fighting the Dark Sisters, and beheading Mrs. Black.
Will met Camille Belcourt and accompanied Tessa, who was disguised as Camille, to de Quincey's ball for Downworlders, as her human subjugate. He tried to set off the alarm to alert the other Shadowhunters, but instead set the curtains on fire. Fortunately, the Shadowhunters realized something was wrong and attacked the mansion, killing the majority of Vampires who had broken the Accords. Will fought and bit de Quincey, after pulling him off Tessa, who had changed back into her human form, but he escaped.
Tessa brought holy water to Will, who was forcing himself to throw up any vampire blood he had swallowed so that he would not become a Darkling. Will, who later blamed it on the vampire blood, kissed her passionately.
Axel Mortmain arrived at the Institute, warning the Shadowhunters that the Dark Sisters were planning on animating the Magister's Clockwork Army. Will and Jem rushed off to stop the Dark Sisters. However they arrived at the abandoned mansion to find only Mrs. Dark conducting a necromantic spell to bring her sister back to life. Realizing that they had been tricked, they rushed back to the Institute but Will left Jem behind with the carriage.
Will found Tessa on the floor, with Mortmain next to her, who was surprisingly upset. Mortmain fled after being confronted by Will. Will rushed toward her, upset at her death. He cradled her head in his lap, but then realized she was breathing. Tessa opened her eyes and told Will that she tricked Mortmain into believing that she had stabbed herself. Will however was distraught as he believed that he had lost everything.
After things had calmed down, Will, in fear of endangering Tessa because of the curse, told her that they could have a sexual, uncommitted arrangement to let her believe that he did not care for her.
Breaking the curse
On an errand for Magnus Bane, Will visited a graveyard and gave 'Old Molly', a ghost, some rings in payment for ingredients for one of Magnus' spells. He asked the ghost if she could supply the opposite of a love potion, however she suggested for him to act nastily and scare the girl away. As she left, he muttered to himself that it was for him, not her.
Tessa, accompanied Will and Jem, up to the York Institute to meet Aloysius Starkweather, who may hold a clue to the Magister's past. Jem gave her the Carstairs family ring, so that she could pretend to be a mundane girl, who was engaged to Jem.
Sophie later came to Tessa with an invitation to a masked ball at the Lightwood's house, addressed to Jessamine from Nate Gray. Jessamine slapped Sophie when she caught Sophie with it, so Sophie hit her and knocked her unconscious with a mirror. Tessa sent Sophie to Will for help, and he placed a sleeping rune on Jessamine so that she would not wake up until morning, and tied her to her bed as a precaution. Tessa Changed into Jessamine, and Will accompanied her, so that she could sneak into Benedict Lightwood's house to attend the ball.
On the balcony at Benedict Lightwood's estate, Tessa and Will shared a rather intimate moment, which was interrupted by Magnus Bane. He was the one who helped them to get back outside of the house.
He realized that Tessa had taken a liking to him and he also realized that he loved her too. Because of this, he went to Magnus Bane, to summon the demon who cursed him. Magnus summoned the demon, Marbas, to release Will from his curse. However, Marbas told them that there was no curse in the first place and swore on it. He told Will that Ella died because she was wounded from the attack. Will was distraught but rushed back to the Institute, jumping with happiness and told Tessa he loved her. His happiness was short-lived as Tessa told him that she was already engaged to Jem. Will, heartbroken, told Tessa not to tell Jem about his feelings and pretended to be happy about the engagement for Jem.
Saving Jem and Tessa
Will trained his sister, Cecily, to become a Shadowhunter. However, he was annoyed at her presence in the Institute and her insistence on him coming home with her, but he did care for her and was fiercely protective of her.
Will discovered that Jem had been taking large doses of yin fen to keep him fit and able, whilst also killing him inside. He traveled to buy more of the demon powder, with Cecily who followed him, but soon discovered that someone had bought it all up.
When Jessamine Lovelace was brought back to the London Institute from the Silent City, the Magister's automatons attacked. Will had no wish to see her, but upon hearing the noise from inside, rushed down to help. He saw Jem run after a carriage of automatons, but did not realize that they had kidnapped Tessa. Jessamine told him that Mortmain was in 'Idris', before dying of a stab wound in the back. Jem returned because the carriage was too fast and he collapsed.
Cecily overheard Will's conversation with Jessamine and figured out that Mortmain was hiding in Cadair Idris, a mountain near where Will used to live in Wales, as she knew Mortmain and his personality.
Will asked Magnus Bane to help them find a cure for Jem, who was dying and running out of yin fen. Magnus asked Will if Jem knew that he was in love with Tessa, but he told Magnus that he did not want to hurt Jem. But Jem overheard them and gave Will his blessing to rescue Tessa, instead of him as he was too ill.
On the road to Wales, Will felt his parabatai rune bleeding, and realized that Jem had died. He throws up and asked Woolsey Scott for advice, even though he got into a fight with some of his werewolf pack. Will cut his hand with Jem's dagger and buried it in the ground by a tree.
He eventually found Tessa in Mortmain's hideout, and rushed to her without thinking, causing him to be trapped inside the invisible barrier with Tessa. Believing that Jem was dead and thinking that they would both die, Will confessed everything to Tessa and told her how much he loved her, leading them to have sex that night.
The next morning, Tessa woke up and realized that her clockwork angel was on his shoulder near his neck, and she pulled it away to find that it had left a mark in the shape of a small white star on Will, thus creating the mark of the Herondales that would be seen on the descendants in the future generations.
Eventually, Magnus Bane found them and released them, bringing them to the others where a battle against hundreds of automatons was being held, with the Shadowhunters losing. Will joined the battle right away and, in the midst of the battle, found out that one of the Silent Brothers, Brother Zachariah, was actually Jem.
Tessa was then captured by Mortmain, who threatened Will and the other Shadowhunters with her. Tessa Changed into the angel trapped inside her necklace, Ithuriel, leaving Will in awe as he watched her blaze with fire. She killed Mortmain, and Changed back into herself, falling to the ground unconscious and worrying Will.
They had won the battle, but once Will returned to the Institute with the others, he entered a state of depression because he was worried about Tessa not regaining consciousness, and feeling lost without Jem. Much to his happiness, Tessa recovered and he was allowed to converse with Jem, which made him feel gloomy for weeks, but he gradually started to recover and adjust to a life without Jem.
Will and Tessa grew closer and, that year during the Enclave's Christmas party, he finally proposed to her, with Tessa saying yes. They planned to get married after Will turned 18, and he used Henry's Portal to go back to Wales along with Cecily, Tessa, and Gabriel to visit his parents after so long. Will and Cecily had a happy reunion with their parents, and Will announced that Tessa was his fiancée. He had a wonderful time visiting his parents after five years.
Later life
Eventually, Will became the head of the Institute, a position given to him when Charlotte became the Consul. Eventually, he and Tessa married and, unexpectedly, even had two children: James and Lucie Herondale.
Because of how other Nephilim viewed Tessa for her heritage, he and his family rarely spent time in Idris, except during the summers.
When Will retired, he went on to write several Shadowhunter histories which became very well-known and respected. In 1937, Will, at 76 years old, died of old age. On his deathbed, he was visited by their friends and family, and, finally, Jem, as Brother Zachariah, who came and played him the violin. Jem bade him the Shadowhunter farewell, and Will then died surrounded by the two people he loved most in his life: Tessa and Jem.
Postmortem
Over a century later, Jem and Tessa finally reunited. In 2009, the couple finally got married and tied the knot on Blackfriars Bridge. Will momentarily came back as a ghost to witness the brief ceremony—though it is also possible that he was merely a figment of Jem and Tessa's collective imagination. He joined Jessamine, who also watched the wedding from afar and struck up a conversation with her. They discussed the odd mix of guests, which consisted of Magnus Bane and the descendants of the people they knew. Will also asserted that the thought of seeing Jem and Tessa happy and together again gave him immense pleasure and joy. Shortly after, Tessa and Jem, sensing his presence, approached him and bade him farewell before Will left.
