《Overdone Book Titles》Saved By Him / Her

This....
This title...
Gives me PHYSICAL PAIN TO READ.
And it also makes me want to slam my head into a concrete wall.
Soooo main character, supposedly a damsel in distress till their saviour comes and rescuses them, no more to it. The main storyline right there.
Things main character could be saved from:
Abusive parents
Near death experience
....
....
....
....
....
....
Pretty much it.
But then suddenly after rescue, it's like they don't have any mental problems, apart from maybe one crying session, and they're suddenly...
SOMEHOW SOME MEGA AMAZING BADASS NOTHING CAN GET IN THEIR WAY BITCH THEY ARE A WARRIOR!!!!!!!
*coughcough* ha no.
Being removed from something like an abusive household, they are going to have to have a lot of recovery time, they aren't instantly going to become the next marvel superhero...
Sometimes they do have mental health issues in their stories, but sometimes people don't portray it right and end up milking it somehow.
They may have PTSD, for example, and sometimes in stories this can be portrayed correctly.
BUT WHAT IS NOT CORRECT ABOUT IT IS THAT ITS MAGICALLY CURED AFTER THEIR 'SAVOUR' IS LIKE I LOVE YOU IM HERE FOR YOU.
NOT.
HOW.
IT.
WORKS.
And boom, PTSD? Mental scars? Depression? Self hatred? Frustration? Maybe even wanting to die, because they can't cope anymore?
Gone, nope, never happened.
If your going to write about mental health issues, it's going to have to be at least for the most part, a serious book.
And it frustrates me SO MUCH.
HHHHHHHHHHHHHH
Somebody stop me before I murder someone.

{The Dragon Within} (Completed)
Meeting his fate at the hands of seven great heroes, the wicked drake now stands in Death's hall. Met with the Grim Reaper itself. Defeated and its pride broken, the drake doesn’t beg or grovel, it simply awaits judgement. It waits for the God of the afterlife to send it on its way, to either the heights of bliss and peace or where it knew it would be sent. The depths of agony and torture, the halls of Tartarus, the father of monsters. Grim looked up from its oaken desk and down at the creature that would have otherwise, if grown wiser and older, matched the reaper itself in power. Its faceless guise, hidden by a black hood and whirling shadows, it briefly stared at the drake. “You are unfit for the sky yet also too fit for the abyss,” Grim spoke, its voice a cracking whisper. “Your time came too soon, the actions you have taken will lead your world to ruin…Be reborn, pitiful serpent. Yet remember what you have done, see what your actions have made that realm into. Let me show you, how your greed and gluttony have warped such a wonderful place and time.” Grim raised its black-feathered pen towards the beast “Be reborn, as the weak pitiful creature you should have been born as. Take this both as a punishment and…a learning experience. For failure, can be the best teacher.” The drake took a step back, hoping to escape this cruel fate. Yet none escaped Death, less so its embodiment. Screaming shadows engulfed his form, ripping away at his body and shape. Fangs of darkness sinking deep into his draconic flesh, warping it, changing him into something else… Opening his eyes, the wicked drake felt none of its power, none of its magic and none of its might. As it stood at the edge of a cliff, looking down upon a ruined valley of rot and miasma. It glanced down at itself, seeing none of its sturdy scales or sharp claws. The drake had been reborn... As a Human. Will also be posting on CreativeNovels found here; CrN Where chapters will be posted earlier than RRL.
