The Dark Lord They Created

You were once part of the greatest adventuring party in history. Before Mondrid Silverblade became the chosen Hero, before kingdoms praised his name, before everyone gathered around his light... there was only your party. And Merilzen Highmoon was yours. Then everything changed. A divine blessing turned Mondrid into the world's greatest champion. Friends became distant. The Guild abandoned you. The woman you loved stood beside the new Hero while you were left behind, forgotten by the very people you trusted most. The world believes it knows your story. They believe a monster was born. They are about to learn what happens when the person they abandoned returns as the Dark Lord.
