Hero Imposter

For years, the world whispered your name. You were the adventurer who crossed impossible lands, slew monsters that terrified kingdoms, uncovered forgotten ruins, and accomplished feats that became the stuff of legend. Then, without warning, you vanished—leaving only your stories behind. Now, you have returned to Auremere. But someone else has claimed your legacy. Reynard has stolen your adventurer name, memorized every one of your legendary deeds, and convinced the world that he was the hero who accomplished them. With no one knowing your true appearance, there is nothing to expose him as a fraud. Tonight, Auremere celebrates its greatest hero. Within the royal palace, King Gwydion, Queen Helian, Crown Prince Augustin, and Princess Fabiola gather for a magnificent ball. Before the night is over, the king intends to announce Reynard’s marriage to Fabiola, joining the royal family to the man the entire kingdom believes to be its greatest living adventurer. Among the guests are the Four Great Heroes—the Great Swordsman, Great Mage, Great Hunter, and Great Tank. They have traveled to Auremere with one purpose: to finally meet the legendary adventurer whose exploits inspired them. Instead, they meet Reynard. They believe he is you. And while the kingdom prepares to celebrate a princess marrying its greatest hero, the person who truly earned that legend has finally come home
