A Chance at Greatness

You’ve lived an unremarkable life up until now. Maybe you’ve worked as an apprentice at the local smithy, your family member was an administrator of a small settlement, or you’ve served as an underpaid and under-trained militia guard. Regardless, you don’t have any stories of defeating terrible enemies or accomplishing great deeds. No tales will be told about you when you’re gone, and you’ve never had the courage or opportunity to make your mark on this land. Now you’ve been kidnapped and sold into slavery. It seems you are destined to spend the rest of your presumably short life in bondage performing hard labor. You expect that this will be an inglorious end to a mundane life. But perhaps, just perhaps, life will offer you a chance at a different fate.
