"Please tell me I'm still in the forest behind the house.. That this is some weird dream" she said squeezing her eyes shut "I could but that would be a lie". Lyrin Hayward grew up on stories of great adventures, wishing she could have one of her own. But when she receives a visit from an old friend, she finds herself thrust into an adventure unlike any other.

Heroes didn't exist anymore, and if they did, she wouldn't be one of them. To the people who came across her, she was the brooding Ranger with the dark grey hooded cloak. All it took to disrupt her pensive calm was a quest halfway across the world. With it, she had a hard time understanding how down-on-her-luck she was and how everything can go all pear-shaped in no time. Kili/OC
