uhm, we do? LadyLorraine Send a noteboard - 05/12/2010 09:48:32 AM
because you said that it didn't start stereotypical. And it started pretty much the most stereotypical it comes.

Farm boy turns out to be Hero.

Hero has to leave Home to keep it safe. Is guided by wise and enigmatic magic user. Only strangeness here is that in this book, the magic user doesn't have a beard.

Farm Boy struggles with his abilities and his danger to others.

Farm Boy continues to make awesome achievements despite little actual skill or expierence, relying mostly on innate power and luck.

I mean, I have a hard time getting through the first few chapters of tEotW because it's just so damned stereotypical!! I could easily change the character and use the first chapter to start any fantasy series!
Still Empress of the Poofy Purple Pillow Pile Palace!!
Continued Love of my Aussie <3

I would be unhappy with that ending because the Creator has never worked directly. - 05/12/2010 09:44:17 AM 905 Views
I'd say there's been some unusualness. - 05/12/2010 09:52:22 AM 854 Views
