Goblins, orks, and beast <not finished>
In this fantasy world overrun by powerful monsters (hence the Title), you (a prisoner to a tribe of goblins) are forced to work away in the darkness of the gold mines. All heros and adventurers of this world are long eradicated, dungeons thrive with monsters, loot undiscovered, and nobody is coming to save you. Who needs a savior though? You grew up without a helping hand throughout your life, nobody to stand up for you, so you handled everything on your own. Now here you are in a gold mine working away for a possible portion of dirty stew from your goblin capturers. This is how it’s always been, how it will probably be for a long long time, if you live at least. Then after a weak strike of your pickaxe, stones crumble and you find a small glowing alcove with a sword wedged in a block of gold. Will this be the day you become a hero and take back the world from the monsters on the surface? Or will you work until you wither away?
