Shem's Quest

""Last night, bravely, with much meekness and humility...well bravely anyway, a hero volunteered. Brother Shem, rise. Give us a few words."" Shem gradually felt the expectant, eager eyes turned in his direction. He desperately sought an avenue of escape. He stood slowly with only a slight wobble. ""I did what?"" It wasn't enough that there was a war going on in the Central Lands, Tierra, Central Lander Goddess-to-be, has chosen this time for her rising. In order to successfully complete this task, she needs a hero. Shem had always wanted to be a hero--until he became one. Then every little thing he had done in his past became an issue. Shem's Quest is to raise the Hjerte, the Heartstone, and secure Tierra's rising. His strongest enemy could very well be himself.
