Before & After: Solo Raider (Patreon)

Everyone laughed at Kouran when she said she intended to solo-level as a rogue. She didn't know how to game, She'd get eaten alive, She should just play a healer. She'd taken one look at the healers, with their dainty staves and flowing robes and known it wasn't for her. Instead she set out into the wild, alone. And yeah, it was hard and miserable at times. But every time she thought about quitting or calling for help, she'd look down at the callouses of her hands and remember she'd made herself into an iron-forged killing machine. She'd gone from Zero to (anti-)Hero all on her own. Sure she had a long journey ahead, but that thrilled her. She isn't quite ready to emerge from her training in the wild yet though. She couldn't wait to see where her body could take her next.
