Slyfox

Have you ever experienced a day so bad you just died? Tell me about it.

There I was, this scrawny high schooler always on the receiving end of bullying, and then boom, I'm playing hero to this little kid about to be pancake city beneath some wheels. And here's the kicker—I take the hit instead. Talk about instant payback. But instead of coming to in the back of an ambulance or, you know remaining a goner, my eyes pop open to this huge shiny blue moon, some celestial messenger in gleaming gear, and a set of stairs made out of actual starlight.

So, it wasn't just bad luck that left me flattened out like a human pancake—I was picked. Chosen by who, you ask? Well, a super spooky mouthless and noseless god of eldraen  decided I was the lucky one to get a big fat destiny plopped on me as if it was some group project I never asked for. Turns out, I'm meant to be the "Child of Starlight," the sole individual who's got the chops to take down the Dark Lord Hadeon, who's come back from the dead. And this Hadeon guy? He's not your average Joe wizard; he's the most powerful sorcerer there's ever been.

Okay so typically, this is where I'd freak out and bolt. But something's up. Turns out, magic's a real thing.  And guess what? I've got it.  Not parlor tricks, either.  I'm wielding power I never dreamed of..."

Okay so here's the sticky part. Hadeon isn't just strong – man, that guy's is also  way too tough, and he's got this bunch of followers convinced that reviving him is top-notch. What about me? I used to be the kid nobody noticed in high school, plus I've got this chatty sky-being giving me advice, a realm that's giving me side-eye, and not a single tip on being the brave one.

Still, I didn't stick around after kicking the bucket just to watch everything go down the drain.

Hadeon's looking for a brawl? Alright, let's have it out.
We'll see who's the boss.
