《From NPC to villain》Chapter 3. Destiny

Uuna: Mom, can I become a hero?
A girl with brown eyes carefully examined the procession of heroes. Her eyes were full of delight.
Alme: Of course! You can be anything you want. But you have to remember, to become a hero, you have to go through a hard way. You must understand perfectly well that the life of a hero is always under threat. The hero must help those in need and take care of those who are weaker.
Uuna listened attentively to her mother. She always dreamed of joining the hero's squad and helping him along the way. And today, on this sunny day, she will receive her destiny, like other children of her age.
For a long time, Uuna watched her parents help the heroes. Uuna's father, the blacksmith Ktom, spent every day in the forges and forged high-quality items for the heroes. Uuna dreamed of following in his footsteps, but realized that the heat of the furnaces and the melting of metals was not hers. Alma, Uuna's mother, held one of the most beautiful positions, in her opinion, she was engaged in the restoration of heroes and adventurers. Uuna wanted to engage in magical activities like her mother, but, unfortunately, she was not predisposed to magic.
Attention! The distribution of the purpose of the NPC Uun will begin in 5 minutes.
Alme: Come on, Uuna. We should hurry up if we want to catch the distribution.
Uuna only nodded her head hesitantly and looked at her father.
Uuna: Isn't Dad coming with us?
Alme: He really wanted to attend your distribution. But there is too much work. A large number of adventurers have arrived in the city. Yes, and a major raid in the dungeon very soon.
Uuna's eyes filled with sadness. She so wanted her father to be there at this moment. Alma went up to her daughter and straightened an unruly strand of hair.

Alme: Everything will be fine. Your dad will be waiting for us to return home. Come on, we can't be late.

The great Hall of the Shrine of Ringras was as full as ever today. A large crowd was humbly waiting for their turn. Everyone present here prayed to the goddess Ringras.
Koyo: Great Goddess of protection, patroness of our house, guide my child on his path and grant him a destiny. Let my son be useful to the heroes and let his gift be glorious.
Ros: Great Goddess of protection, patroness of our home, grant our children their destiny and protect them.
Nolad: I hope the Goddess will send great gifts to our children.
Syne: Whatever gift the Goddess sends, whatever destiny they have, they will all serve as assistants to the heroes.
Nolad: Of course, it is impossible to impose such a burden on children, but it will still be good if many receive magical purposes. Not everyone in our city is long-lived and not everyone is able to resist monsters. There are fewer and fewer heroes, and monsters are constantly being reborn at the hands of this damned Necromancer. If only the Goddess Ringras wasn't protecting him…
Syne: The plan of the Goddess is not clear to us, Nolad. The fact that she chose a Necromancer to educate heroes is really strange, but it's not for us to decide who will fulfill this great goal.
Nolad: You're right, but still…
Syne: Let's leave the arguments for later. Children are waiting for us now.

Alme and Uuna were standing in front of the heavy doors to the sanctuary. Uuna was clutching her mother's hand tightly from excitement and did not dare to enter. Alma felt her daughter's excitement and wanted to cheer her up. She perfectly remembered her trepidation before the distribution and understands her daughter's excitement.

Alme: Shall we enter?
Uuna tightened her grip on Alma's hand. Throwing off her excitement, she stepped forward and the doors opened. For a second, Uuna was blinded by the light of the crystals illuminating the room. She let go of her mother's hand and hesitantly entered the room. In the center of the room was an altar. Two men were standing to his left and right. The right-hand man in a simple robe and with a scar on his face. On the left is a man in white robes. Previously, Uuna had been to the shrine, but this was her first time in this room.
Alme: Guild Master Nolad. Master of the Syne.
Alme bowed to Magister Syne and stood behind him.
Syne: Uuna, my name is Magister Syne. Tell me, please, have you ever prayed to the Goddess Ringras?
Uuna: Yes.
Syne: Good. Now you need to go to the altar and start praying. Ask the Goddess to show you your destiny.
Uuna: Great Goddess of protection, patroness of our house, reveal to me my destiny.
A field of flowers suddenly appeared in the room above the altar. A second later, the vision faded into a light haze.

Saga of Fallen Kings, Book I: The Revenant Prince
The Philosopher King once conquered the known world, his power seemingly unlimited and his armies inexhaustible. Since that time his might has slowly unravelled, and his once steadfast empire has begun to crack, splinter and devour itself. In the isolated Southern Realms, where even magic has abandoned them, none of that matters. For years it has been filled with warring kingdoms, where as many kings die to the blade as to old age, and constant battles tear apart the land. When one such kingdom invades its old enemy, the King and his heir, Prince Caden, are killed. Unable to accept the loss of his family Prince Arian is broken, and when the Philosopher King stretches out his hand in aid, Arian takes it without a second thought. When Caden wakes from death, he's different. His eyes and soul have changed, and he finds a world filled with friends who no longer trust he's even human. Suddenly thrust onto the throne and indebted to the Philosopher King, Caden has no choice but to keep going - he must finish what his father started, and try to survive the machinations of the figure who now owns his fealty. Meanwhile something beyond death stirs for him, desiring nothing more than to drag him back into its embrace. Author's Note: This story used to be known as "A King of his Own", but after some consideration I have decided to rebrand it. The first reason is that I was growing increasingly dissatisfied with the title. The second is that I have come increasingly to view this story as a 'saga' containing multiple 'books' rather than one long, continuous publication, and as I did so I realized that as I was quickly getting to a point in the story where I wanted the first 'book' to end. This doesn't mean I'm going back on the things I said below - they're just going to continue in the next book of the Saga of Fallen Kings. :) Also, be aware that I do plan to edit this at some point. Though I take care to squash out any obvious errors when I proof-read, and do simple edits in that process, at some point I'm almost certainly going to do large edits that might significantly change parts of the story. Old author's notes: This started as a completely random writing session. There was no purpose or direction, but as I kept typing an entire world began to form in my mind that I knew I had to write about. My plan is to turn this story into a veritable medieval fantasy epic that spans an entire world, follows multiple character and storylines, and takes place over many years. The story has quite a grounded, almost 'realistic' start, but many more fantastical elements will be introduced, expanded upon and become central to the narrative. I have ideas for this story that make me genuinely excited and I hope you enjoy my work as much as I enjoy writing it, and join me on what will hopefully become a truly massive fantasy epic. If you do enjoy this story please consider following, rating and leaving a review. I'm also happy to answer any questions or comments you have.
