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.

Fire and Steel

Korra was hurt. 

That one thought penetrated the lingering haze in my mind, driving me into a state of panic. She'd taken on two fifth-level demons on her own. Why hadn't she let me protect her?

While remaining mounted on Fable's back, I thrust my hand forward and cast Earth Wall, aiming to cut off the demons. The demon's focus shifted as the ground trembled, their piercing gazes locking onto my soul, before rock and stone erupted between us, cutting the dreadful visage off. I shivered but didn't hesitate, urging Fable forward toward Korra. 

As we skidded to a stop beside her, she looked up, lips curled in a slight, teasing smile. "What took you so long?"
