The oddest heroes in the realm are brought together for the adventure of a lifetime, the likes of which no bard has ever sung... or bothered to, at any rate. Join these unlikely characters in their quest for knowledge, vengeance, glory, and the occasional rat or two, and find out that you don't need lungs to cry for justice!
Inspired by the most famous nerd hobby of all, Dungeons and Dragons (but accessible to anyone who likes fantasy and hasn't forgotten how to laugh), No Legend for Us is a light-hearted romp into a world of magic and wonder, where heroes can come from the most surprising places and in the strangest shapes.

Dirk Gets a Puppy
When a warrior rescues a feral wolf-child from goblins, his dreams of heroic glory take an unexpected-and furry-turn. A brash young adventurer, Dirk Haywood and his cousin Felix, a rhyme-obsessed bard, are seeking fortune and fame in a land where their only skills seem to only be exaggeration and getting into trouble. When they stumble upon a pack of goblins attacking what appears to be a dog, they leap into action hoping for a grateful owner's reward. Soon they discover they've rescued a feral wolf-boy with a talent for mockery and a habit of marking his territory on Dirk's boots. Now they must decide whether to abandon the wild child to the forest or take responsibility for a vulnerable orphan. Some heroes are born; others are peed on. This short story is great for fans of The Legend of Vox Machina, Disenchantment, and The Dragon Prince, Dirk Gets a Puppy is a short story marking the beginning of The Adventures of Dirk & Felix. It plunges the reader into a fantasy world akin to popular role-playing games, with a twist of humor.![Mad As A Hatter (Completed 2015) [WATTY AWARD WINNER *Featured Story*]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/20389608-256-k568413.jpg)

Guardians of Terraria
William, Robyn and Sid wake up in a strange grassy forest, made completely from pixels and blocks, with no memory of their past or knowledge of the world they have been thrust into. The world plays like a game, the nights bring zombies and flying demon eyes, the lands are being corrupted by living flesh, and the old man standing in front of a mysterious dungeon seems to be under some sort of curse. The three of them will need to learn how to work together, build up a village for the astray citizens that keep showing up on their doorstep, and gear up in order to take on the challenges of the world and become the Guardians of Terraria.

The Serpent and the Unicorn: Books I and II
What if the Myth were real and everything else mattered not? What if your very soul hung in the balance? Enter a land where the Myth is real, but many have forgotten or scorn the Truth and those who fight to uphold it. The adventure is about to begin, for even those who fight for justice are about to rediscover why. This story is not just another tale of an orphan who finds a magic sword, discovers a forgotten lineage, finds a few friends, and conquers an overwhelming evil. This is a story that crosses a continent, transcends time, plunges deep into the very soul of man, and explores all the vastness and intricacies of life. It is a story of good and evil, love and war, truth and absurdity, courage and faith, hope and despair, humor and adventure, and everything that moves the human soul. Whether viewed as Truth or Myth, it is a tale to make one think and a story full of adventure, intrigue, love, sorrow, hope, and humor: much like this dance we call life. It is a fairy story in that it involves unicorns, dragons, and other uncommon beasts and certain aspects of magic, but it is also a human story that explores the questions, doubts, fears, and triumphs common to the hearts of men. The Brethren are an ancient brotherhood entrusted with preserving and disseminating knowledge, truth, and justice since time began; they have survived indifference, hostility, disaster, war, plague, and obscurity but ever they persevere in their age-old duties. Of late, they have fallen into obscurity due to over-caution and the forgetfulness of the people they serve. A strange encounter rouses them from their secrecy and sends one of their most talented agents into the heart of a sworn enemy only to unveil an even older and more dangerous foe.Complete
