Synopsis

Defeat a Dark Lord, turn back a horde of monsters, slay a dragon and save a princess? Sure, why not. That is for the right price… and if the guild gets the contract.
In a world where all are born with a path to walk, after giving up so much to get it in the first place, Lan finds his path taken from him, along with the love of his life and what little of his soul was left. With nowhere to turn and with nothing to show for his sacrifice, Lan throws himself into the vital yet often frowned upon world of adventuring. But few have the heart to be an adventurer, and even fewer survive their first contract, and that is to say nothing of the fact that he has never gained a single level, with a guild tag still stained with the blood of the last idiot to use it, Lan finds himself facing one chance to find his place amongst the most honourable of rogues. He will have to battle demons from his past, slay the monsters before him and live many stories as he deals with a barely sentient ball of flying light that won't leave him alone. All while the world changes, refusing to wait for him.
