The Many Burdens of a Hero

Warning: This story contains many dark adult themes.



In a world on the path to destruction, a nameless orphan seeks his own future in a brutal world of magic and myth.



After he is sought out to be adopted by a cursed Witch and reincarnated Kitsune, he is soon chosen to wield a Relic; magic weaponry of unbelievable power who chose their masters.



Touji Himura must learn how to use this newfound strength and bear the burdens of what it means to become a hero.



In this story everyone has their own past that shapes their present and future, from sole surviving Oni to an immortal mage that forgets all who die except those who perish by her hands.



Authors Note: Chapters will often see touch ups and refinements over time. This is my first ever story, so I may stumble along the way. Please let me know of any mistakes I make



In everlasting memory of Mark Richards.
