The Stonehearted Knight

Heaven favors the strong and wealthy. Hex realized that the day he was thrown out of the cloister and into the slums. He vowed to become the baron and show what being strong meant. To forge his own destiny, Hex scavenged the mountains, braving the cold solitude with a smile. At last, one day, he gained his chance on the verge of life and death. Even then, society and Fate tried to interfere. Faced with death, his Will didn’t waver and he gritted through, forcing his Heart to awaken. The Stone Heart in his chest defied his destiny and helped him write his own. Emboldened by his Heart of Stone, he walked the path to his dreams. His dreams, however, threatened to put him in the middle of the crossfire between Powers that could destroy Earth and Sky. Hex couldn’t allow his dreams to shatter. So, he sought to destroy all those who threatened his dreams. Follow a young man on his quest to fulfill his dreams, even if it meant to destroy Heaven and Earth. _____________________________________________________________________________________________ Finally, I have a discord.

A desperate fight

Screech!

The Disaster's shriek hurt their ears but they couldn't afford to shut them. If they dropped their guard, they would be done for.

The creature shrieked. To their surprise, as it continued to do so, its body started to vibrate. Waves of heat radiated outward, while its frame shrunk. Soon, it looked smaller and thinner. But it wasn't weaker.

Hex's intuition blared like crazy inside his heart. 

"Watch out!"

Hex's warning came timely. The Disaster took a step and in the following moment disappeared from their sight. The next moment it appeared behind their team, slashing at the two men tasked with support.

The two men felt the shadow of death fall over them. They shivered. But just as they sensed a touch a sudden punch and kick came out of nowhere and sent them flying. 

While the others were slow to react due to losing the Disaster out of sight, Hex used his senses to locate it. He intervened, pushing the two men out of the way.
