Thank you! I did want this to start out feeling like the classic hero gets the sword and saves the world from evil story, but then you realize where the story turns away from that mold and what makes it different.
And the traditional fairy tale feel is definitely intentional. I want the family to feel like a normal, good family. They love each other, fight, make up, support each other. They are not the type to save the world. They are what people save the world to protect. So I thought it would be interesting to make someone like that the hero and not the rugged knight. I hope it works out.
