Divine Departure

Before leaving his hometown, Evan Alma never imagined he would have such a legendary adventure.

If he had not worn that brown cloak when he left the city that day, or if he had accidentally revealed himself while being chased by soldiers, or if the teeth of a magical beast had pierced his throat, none of what followed would have happened.

But fortunately, he did not. So when he looks back on the days when he was just a country bumpkin, knowing nothing of swords or honor, everything that happened to him seems almost destined.
