"We all are told from the start that we are either born as a hero or a villian," she whispered. Looking back at life time of decisions that will matter no more, Dolores looked ahead of herself and said, "I'm not playing as the hero this round!"
___________________________________________
Dolores was the local arragont yet charismatic hero, who was kind at heart, strategic in the head but a bit to confident in her actions.
A simple group project appeared harmless. Meet up a couple of times, plan everything out, rehearse and then repeat.
Everything was going storybook perfectly until a betrayal occurred that forever flipped a switch within her that she never knew existed.
Will Dolores be able to bring order back or rise above and entire a new era of her legacy?

The Exiled King | ✔
The world plunged into an era of peace, built upon the backs of the last heroes, who protected their realm and then vanished into legend, taking their powers with them. When the lost powers awaken in six strangers across the mortal realm once again, they seek answers... What danger has compelled the powers to reappear after half a century of peace? As demons once again begin to crawl from the fiery realm of the Abyss, it becomes clear that they are not acting on their own - someone cunning is leading them. But something doesn't add up. The deeper they dig, the more twisted the truth becomes and the more uncertain their path forward. Who... or what must they truly save their world from? As destinies unravel and loyalties are tested, one question lingers: What if saving the world... means trusting the very force that could end it?
