Hubris: Book One
HUBRIS
Hubris is rated 16+ due to violence and mature topics.
“You would be the one. I knew it from the moment I first saw you among all the others begging for my guidance. You would be the one to see the world until its end. Battles will be fought, wars will begin and end but you will remain through it all. Other champions will compete in the temples but none shall be more favoured by the gods than you.
You are everything.
You will be glorious.”
Becoming a champion was one of the greatest honours that could be bestowed on a warrior. Many trained for decades, some even from birth and still failed to be noticed by a mentor.
Champions would fight in the temples for the honour of the gods. To prove themselves worthy of their love and charity. Their name would be known throughout the realm.
You have been trained since the age of thirteen for this honour by your ruthless mentor. There is not a single other competitor your age who stands a chance against you, well not anymore.
There was no room for error in the eyes of your tutor but it was only so long before you were bound to make a mistake.
You were cracking and you knew it.
Features:

- Customisable appearance, pronouns and personality.
- Choose your Champion’s fighting style.
- Experience how your Champion’s actions impact the realm and the people who follow them.
- Will you be the saviour or drag you and your country down to the deepest pits of damnation?

Interesting start! Looking forward to seeing where this goes!
Just letting you know there is a lot of tense shifting in the writing. Once it was even within the same sentence.
Yeah I've been finding it quite hard especially since I was deliberating whether to write in past or present tense especially since it's in 2nd person. I'll go back and edit it when I upload for Chapter 2 but if you know any AI tense checkers or anything I would be very thankful. Thanks for letting me know :)
