The Forsaken Hero

I closed my eyes and let out a long, shuddering breath. The needle slipped through my numb fingers and clattered onto the rough pavement. Nothingness swirled around me, bringing the first peace I'd felt in my short, miserable life. No one would miss me, and if any did...? Well, there was always someone else to beat or rape. They'd move on quickly. But then...gods? Since when did nothingness have so many gods? Chosen by the goddess of Fate, I'm thrust into a world of magic and wonder alongside nine other heroes. A world where the gods reign supreme, and evil is vanquished before it can spread its blight. Can such a place truly exist? Could life really be worth living? I've heard that the brightest lights cast the longest shadows, but my life has been nothing but darkness. Perhaps this new world will be the chance I need to find the light, to see the other side.

Hero's Return

The next morning, I woke up earlier, excited for the day. I spent a lot of time the night before thinking about the Spar and found myself rather optimistic. Regardless of the demands of the church and slave crest, I had mastered an astonishing degree of magic and was becoming proficient in even fourth-circle spells. I felt the urge to begin studying fifth-circle fate magic, which was where divination truly came into play, but there were other things that demanded my attention first.

Throwing on a dress and sandals, I made off for the main hall. While I still the gazes of many, it was no longer significant. Anyone who hadn't heard rumors was probably blind and deaf.
