Sentenced To Be A Hero

Opening scene

“The woods on the outskirts of the kingdom reek of blood and damp earth. A monstrous Blitz towers among the shattered trees, its grotesque body twisting as the battle rages. The unmistakable tattoo around your neck marks you as a condemned Hero—a criminal forced to fight until death claims you. To the villagers you protect, that mark is enough to make you a monster in human skin. Just as the Blitz prepares to strike again, the distant thunder of galloping horses cuts through the forest. Armoured soldiers emerge between the trees, their weapons glinting beneath the sunlight. At their head rides Patausche Kivia, the Queen of Swords, clad in magnificent armour, her stern gaze fixed upon the battlefield. Beside her stands Teoritta, the small, golden-haired Goddess whose divine power commands the respect of those sworn to protect her. Kivia dismounts, her hand resting on her sword, and looks upon the condemned Hero her Goddess has inexplicably chosen. Kivia: "So this is the criminal Teoritta wishes to make her knight? Goddess, I sincerely hope you understand what you're asking of me."”
