Horizon before dawn
A young man is thrust into the unforgiving world of Horizon Zero Dawn as an outcast. Will he survive, carving out a place for himself in this harsh, machine-filled wilderness? Or will he meet a grim fate, trampled by a Strider?
Follow Noir, our snarky and not-so-lucky protagonist, as he embarks on a wild and unpredictable journey. Along the way, you’ll meet the characters you love (and maybe hate), and witness how his presence changes the world as we know it.
What to Expect:
Slow-Burn Beginnings: The first chapters will focus on setting up Noir’s character and the challenges of his new reality.
Romance (Eventually): Expect romance much later in the story—when the time is right.
No Smut
No Harem
Action-Packed Adventure: Get ready for violence, explosions, and plenty of destruction.
Familiar Faces: Noir will meet Aloy and Rost early on, but not immediately. Their interactions will be pivotal.
A Complex Protagonist: Noir is a natural leader who won’t shy away from doing what needs to be done to save this dying world. He’s not a hero, nor a villain, a neutral karma protagonist walking a morally gray path.
This is my first fanfic, so please bear with me! I’d love to hear your thoughts on what works, what doesn’t, and how I can improve. If you spot any grammar issues, feel free to call them out.
Your feedback is everything to me. Whether you like it, dislike it, or feel compelled to throw some stones my way, it all helps me grow as a writer.
Thanks for taking the time to read this. If you’re kind enough to leave a review, I’ll light an incense stick in your honor (because that’s all I can afford).
Love you all.
