I’m trying to limit my breaks with this series to roughly once every 5 chapters, and like I mentioned before, even when I’m on break I’ll try and give you something relating to the story. Today, I would like to talk a little bit about the previous few chapters as well as what I’ve been … Continue reading Progress on the Hesitant Hero

Vol 5: Chapter 10 – Musical Madness
Hi friends. When I started writing chapter 9, I hadn’t fully worked out what to do for chapter 10 yet, so I introduced Kimi to the story again, which was always the plan. It wasn’t until after I finished that chapter and started writing this one that I realized a much better way to introduce … Continue reading Vol 5: Chapter 10 – Musical Madness
Vol 5: Chapter 9 – Reinforcements
Captain Arios had a worried look on his face. Dealing with mercenaries and members of the Sahilid order was well within his skillset and he’d dealt with some strange folks over the years. Being confronted by the holy order of Owlana was a different story. Not to mention they seemed to be accompanied by a … Continue reading Vol 5: Chapter 9 – Reinforcements
Vol 5: Chapter 8 – The first delve
I have been a bit under the weather lately, so I would like to give a heads up in advance. I was ahead on chapters for a while, but I finished today's chapter just the day before posting it. I hope to finish chapter 9 by next week, but if not, we'll take next week … Continue reading Vol 5: Chapter 8 – The first delve
Vol 5: Chapter 7 – A decision made
Crawling out of the dungeon entrance came a monstrosity that would likely haunt the present soldiers’ dreams for centuries to come. Though that would only be the case if they were able to dodge its fangs bearing down on them. Mirgia was quick to react, having felt like something was wrong about a second before … Continue reading Vol 5: Chapter 7 – A decision made
Vol 5: Chapter 6 – Danger lurks
Mirgia and Doroly went to the location of the nearby dungeon on foot. Despite her smaller stature, Doroly was easily able to keep up with Mirgia’s larger strides. Mirgia had his bow slung over his back and a short sword at his belt. Doroly had a longsword on her belt. It was tucked in quite … Continue reading Vol 5: Chapter 6 – Danger lurks
From the world of the Hesitant Hero: Redsan Village
In my effort to accomplish three different things at once, I’ll be talking about the world of the Hesitant Hero from time to time. The three things I want to accomplish with this are simple. I want to give myself some breathing room between chapters, which hopefully results in a better thought out story. Writing … Continue reading From the world of the Hesitant Hero: Redsan Village
Vol 5: Chapter 5 – Trouble Brewing
Mirgia woke up face down in the hay. His alcohol tolerance wasn’t what it used to be and he drank quite a lot during the cookout the previous evening. The sun was already up and one of the cows walked over to sniff his hair when he sat up. “Good morning sunshine,” he said to … Continue reading Vol 5: Chapter 5 – Trouble Brewing
Vol 5: Chapter 4 – Dinner Stories
Seated between Teddy and Doroly, who were both very kind to him, Mirgia still couldn’t help but feel out of place. The smallfolk village had been incredibly kind to him so far, even as he wandered through Redsan itself many of the people had approached him and given him something to snack on or shared … Continue reading Vol 5: Chapter 4 – Dinner Stories
Vol5: Chapter 3 – Thoughtful or instinctive
After wandering through town for a part of the afternoon and delivering the letters to the post office, who promised a safe delivery, but not a particularly quick one, Mirgia eventually made his way out of the town of Redsan and towards the home of Teddy and his wife. “If you leave the town on … Continue reading Vol5: Chapter 3 – Thoughtful or instinctive
