Golden fields stretch out as far as the eye can see. Afternoon sunlight warms your skin and gleams in your blond curls. Your blue eyes sparkle with mischievous energy.
You smile.
"But lo and behold, a new warrior steps onto the battlefield!" you say to no-one, swinging your wooden sword over your head dramatically. "It is young Captain Hero Cottonmouth and his legendary blade Dragonfall! The armies of Aestus have no chance against this mighty soldier!" You dance and swing, felling imaginary enemies with your equally imaginary magical sword. After a few minutes you fall into the grass, exhausted, your smooth skin moist with sweat. Playing with wooden swords is so underwhelming, why can't you have a real enemy to fight?
Xander, your brother, calls to you from a distance. "Hero, Mom says to stop messing around and get back to your chores! The cows won't milk themselves!"
