Several hundred lifetimes ago, there was a phrase that history would later on quote Lalauri as having said several dozen times throughout Enchantyon’s history. Even in the modern era of the Arcane Age, she found herself saying it in the aftermath of her latest adventure:

“Give me a monster, and I will hack it to pieces. Show me villainy, and I will serve it with righteous annihilation.”

But instead, the Holy Faun saw fit to give her a child.

Upon their arrival in Aureate, Lalauri and Keridwen will have to face the threats and challenges that had been looming in the background while Lalauri was away. Threats that were only just barely fended off by the staff of Lalauri’s home, Imafenduwell Hall.

All the while, the warrior elf maiden and the lonely human orphan must find a way to settle in together, and in doing so are forced to come to grips with their new reality of guardian and child.

In most novels I've read so far, there are often people of this kind erected as the love interest. And they are not explored. Don't you want to know how it feels to be on the other end of the love interest treatment?

I ask for the readers to be patient with the protagonist. His actions may seem unreasonable and cringe, he is very small in age, and as he has an abnormal way of thinking, he may seem hatable.

The protagonist of this story has a very pessimistic and sadistic nature. Sometimes possessive.
I want the readers to see him grow up and deal with his abnormalities.
Please try to sympathize with him even a little.

Updates will be random. 3 Chapters minimum each update.
Currently, this is the writer's complete self-indulgence. I wanted to explore the mind of a childhood part of life and what would have happened if it got the chance to develop more severely. <<less
