The Forsaken Hero

I closed my eyes and sighed, letting the needle slip through my fingers and clatter to the alley floor. It wasn’t like anyone would miss me. There was always someone else to beat or rape. The nothingness was a relief. At least now I have peace. Only...since when did 'nothingness' have so many gods? As one of ten heroes chosen by the Divine, I was sent to another world to fend off a demon invasion. But, the gods aren’t all helpful, and treat this as a game. Waking up in the magical world of Enusia, I found myself cursed and alone, clapped in chains and despised. This world was worse, far worse than the playground I so naively left behind, filled with betrayal, pain, and death. I've heard that the brightest lights cast the longest shadows. Perhaps, in this life, I can find if that's true. I'm tired of living in the dark. It's time to find the light. Discord: https://discord.gg/PX3xqJdZMY

Haven

I sighed as the others dissolved into starlight, dismissed from this realm with a wave of my staff. As I was about to follow them, the spirit's voice resonated through the ethereal space.

"My Lady, would you remain with me a moment longer?"

I paused, a small knot of unease forming in my stomach. The spirit hadn't uttered a word since questioning Gayron, but now that we were alone, it descended to stand before me. Fable, loyal as ever, remained by my side, his presence a comfort in the wake of my emotional outburst. But what could be so important that the spirit didn't even want Korra to hear?

"Yes?" I asked in a small voice.

"What is this realm called?"

I blinked, my tail twitching in surprise. "Sorry?"

"This realm. What do you wish to call it?"

"I'm not sure I understand. Isn't it just a gate? Won't it break apart the moment I leave?"
