Can one encounter change everything?
Adisa is a proud, rising captain in the Knights guild. He's extremely smart, perceptive, strategic, powerful--and a braggart. He's absurdly great at his job. His excessive bragging can either be highly amusing or annoying, the latter of which is prevalent among the conservative nobles who unfortunately dominate the knights. Coupled with the fact that he's a commoner, he should happily retire as one of the Knight Commanders for a small town.
As if.
One day he heard some goons trying to harass a meek woman. He tries to save her, but the goons turn out to be more than he can handle. Almost at the death's door, he's saved by the very woman he was trying to protect. Not only the timidness was an act, she also turns out to be an extremely intelligent and powerful person.
Attracted by each other's peculiarities, they quickly become interested in each other. Scoffed by some as the pair going against social classes, they stand resolute. With the gears of fate starting to move, it's unknown what will the result be.
Join them on their adventure of battling against this game and fight against destiny in which stakes include not only their relationship, but will also slowly include the future of the world. The friends will become enemies; enemies will turn out to be useful. And extremely powerful, smart and ruthless people stand in their way. It'll require every ounce of their wisdom--which they are both widely known as geniuses for--to even have a minute chance.
Will their end be tragic or a heroic victory? Only time will tell.

The Hero's Guide to Heroing
A story about superheroes in a modern world. Once, humans and power wielders were at war. The war brought both side to the brink of destruction, forcing peace or extinction. A tentative peace prevailed for a time. Enough to build trust between the two sides for many years. But as the two sides grew together some of the old hatreds began to stir again. Those who held these old hatreds became known as villains, while those who fought them became known as heroes. "Are you sure this will work?" one of the figures around the table ask. All are dressed in black and hide their faces. No one wants to be known to anyone else in 'this' type of alliance. "I'm certain of it. We need to simply kill the few true heroes left, and then expose the rest for the self righteous corrupt creatures they are. I've already started gathering the pieces I need." "What's the end goal here?" a third figure asks. "To purge the world of corruption and all those who turn a blind eye to it." There is a long silence before a fourth voice speaks out. "Your talking about mass slaughter. I won't be a part of this." the figure stands and begins to leave the table. "It seems there is corruption in our very own ranks.... I suppose the best place to start is within the inner vessel, is it not?" "No! What are you Doing? Stop!"
