You were at the village farms tilling the soil in preparation for the sowing when a giant black flying lizard descends from the sky. Mounted on it there is this guy in a dark armor and cloak. He says in a spectral voice "I've come for the tribute!", then his lizard grabs a couple girls and he flies away.You wouldn't give two shits about it, but one of the girls he grabbed was your crush and the other was your cousin! I mean, both were your cousins, but only one was your crush.Infuriated, you decide that you're going on an epic journey to get your cousins back.Right now you just have a hoe and no money to your name though. The hoe isn't even yours.What do you do?> Find a stout club and go raid a dungeon for riches, you hear adventurers do it all the time> Consult the village elders for guidance on your new adventure> Join a group of brigands for equipment and training> Write in
