Holding Out for a Hero

[IS – 🎭] The bright kingdoms promised a Hero. The border got you. At the border between good and evil, one of the ancient fortresses holding the Saeloryn frontier, guards, scouts, priests, nomads, criminals, and ruin-delvers bleed through another dawn while the forces of darkness crawl closer. The Leth-Sael Prophecy has awakened. Akito Moriyama — a boy from another world, called Letharel by the temples — has been summoned to save the Land of Light. Somewhere far from the border, he is learning sword forms, meeting mentors, facing symbolic trials, and slowly becoming worthy. Good for him. The fortresses are cracking. Demon warbands are moving with purpose. The old ruins beneath the frontier are waking, and nobody knows whether their buried weapons were built to hold back darkness or helped create it. Hold the gate. Hate the songs. Survive until the Hero arrives.
