Description

What happens when the great heroes turn out to be rude glory-seeker zealots, or savvy and snarky jerks ?Something different from what bards, poets and minstrels sing, is what happens.

Everyone knows about his journey across the continent. How he met friends and foes alike, how he fought against the greatest wizards, warriors, beasts and demons. Everyone believes he had the purest heart, the noblest soul, and that he selflessly braved many dangers in order to achieve goodness.

Hah ! Well that's what the songs and legends say anyway ! He did it all for the fame and glory, what do you think ?

    One of the best stories I’ve read on RR. Character are great and story is fun to follow.
    I can recommend it to all who enjoy opirtunistic heroes. There is romance in the story but it is not forced and compliments the plot without delivering attention from it.
    It’s a pity that this fiction was dropped.
    But at least it happened not in the middle of the arc, so you can read from the beginning till the end without worries)

    I have begun this wonderful story and will absolutely be continuing it. I've gotten to the point where I am itching to write a review for this fun story.
    Style
    The style is a unique one, that's for sure. I have really enjoyed where Brostigno has gone with the writing. It is humorous but still gives off a fantastical vibe. I thoroughly enjoy the balance between storytelling and peeks into the mind of the Azcheron.
    Story
    The story is probably my favorite part of this adventure. It follows quite a unique character as he leaves his home island that's all he's ever known. I can't wait to see where it expands to.
    Grammar
    The grammar does have small issues every now and then but it is 1. better than most and 2. understandable due to english not being his first language (it's pretty incredible when you take this into consideration). Still, the grammar is not too jarring but there are mixups every now and then.
    Character
    Second only to the story, I find the characters in this one awesome. I've laughed out loud a few times already. They are clever and have real thoughts. The depth is good.
    Overall
    I would absolutely recommend this wholeheartedly. I am going to follow this story as soon as I can figure out how to do so and will eagerly await updates.

    I'll just say what's on my mind, not much of a reviewer I am afraid.
    So story is promising, much happened already, there are saints, dragons and heroes in a somewhat releastic world.there is combat, plots and humor (unique type of humor). just enough world building and characters.
    And there is a main plot, a lot of people think that's important so I said it.
    Speaking about characters, peculiar is the least you can say about them, mc is strong, clever and mischievous, main and side characters are properly represented and tailored into the tale.
    MC is a bit overpowered but still struggles and compensate for his weaknesses in other people.
    But what I loved most in this story is that it's unpridictable, most of the time anyway.
    Don't know much about style or grammar so I'll pass.
    So I like ye're tale writeman do it to ye're end.
