The Flight & the Fall follows the story of Icarus Dawnguard in his days of early adulthood. Following his newly obtained status of Knight, he attempts to find his place in the world and break free from the bonds of his father's reputation. But the weight of such a title is heavy on the bearer, and Icarus may just be burned yet...
    
    His character is based loosely on the Greek mythology of Icarus, Apollo, and lessons of hubris. 
    
    **Content Warnings: violence, swearing, blood, gore, domestic abuse**
    
    Milestones!

    I play Icarus in my D&D group's homebrew campaign, and originally started writing these snippets as I made up his backstory. That is until I ended up having way too much fun with this world and characters, and thought that it would all make for a great epic saga! The world of Nethedria is a creation of our DM, @coffeepaladin (on Twitter and Wattpad), with strong incorporation of classical D&D content.
