The Forsaken Hero

Discord: https://discord.gg/PX3xqJdZMY I closed my eyes with a sigh and let the needle slip through limp fingers. It wasn’t like anyone would miss me. They could always find someone else to beat or rape. The nothingness was a relief. At least now I have peace. Only...I don’t remember 'nothingness' having 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.

I rolled my eyes, but on the inside, I was cheering. She'd been teasing me, and I hadn't gotten embarrassed. Regardless of the heaviness of the things I was about to share, I couldn't help but feel a thrill of pride.

Korra cleared her throat, and I jumped slightly, startled from my thoughts. "R-right," I stammered, blushing slightly. So much for remaining composed. "I wasn't talking about the staff, but Fate, or what's left of her at least."

"I thought Fate was dead? Didn't they put a new god in her place?"
