Adventuring had seemed such... «Fool`s Gold»
RamingoWS7 июня 2018Adventuring had seemed such a good idea when she`d started out. Punching monsters for a living. Receiving riches and glory in return. And there really was glory. She knew at least three people who had had songs composed about their endeavors. Four if you counted "The Ballad of Fairthroat the Man-Whore" but that one didn`t end with Fairthroat in possession of all his anotomy, so the glory thing was questionable there. And yet, even assuming you got a song, and that then someone managed to reconcile the sweaty, bloodstained social deviant in front of them with the shining idealized figure they`d heard songs about, you were still left with the fact that any riches coming your way would be the result of a significant amount of violence and personal harm. And violence and personal harm had a way of spiraling out of control. Very far out of control.
