A stubborn youth and an ancient hero must develop an unlikely relationship to prevent a long-prophesied evil from returning.

A young blacksmithing apprentice, Richard has spent years training and honing his skill. He never longed for a life of adventure, but it still called. When an old, decrepit hero arrives in his time of need, Richard must put his past behind him and become the Swordmaster's apprentice.

Can this new hero regain a lost power? Or will it forever be lost to the fear of the people? Can this new evil be stopped before it once again threatens the very existence of the world?

A smaller fantasy set in a medieval world. Join the variety of protagonists on their route to the realisation of how absolutely fucked they are in a world of kill or be killed. The world is filled with a variety of unique races, some known and thus modified, like Werewolves, Vampires or Medusas, others made up from scratch, like Snakes, Scorpions or Scouts. The setting is dilemmatic, one focusing on morality over heroism, necessity over villainy and curiosity over simplicity. There are no good and bad guys, just people trying to survive at whatever cost. Written in a format of short stories, inspiration taken from the first few books of the Witcher and old Germanic fairytales for tone and brutality. I plan to work on this project in my spare time, which will reflect on the frequency of posts and the length of final product
