A hero in the fantasy realm, appraised and cheered on, approaches the King during a ceremony. One celebrating the victory against the Dark Lord. A tyrant who ended many lives and caused nothing but pain for the realms. Dead by the blade of a hero. The celebration went without a hitch, and eventually the King brought the hero into the castle to his chambers to talk, his smile gone.
King: "I thank you for your service to the kingdom. I know this position was not taken by you willingly. I am... forever grateful for what you've done."
The King stepped forward, drawing his knife and stabbing the hero in the side of the chest, puncturing the lung and leaving the hero gasping and bleeding on the floor, choking on blood.
King: "But you know far too many secrets of the lands for me to let you live. You know of my affairs, my deals with the orcs, if you wanted you could damn me and my position with a simple shout in the street. So I hope it hurts."
He leaves. Discarding the hero like trash. The hero slowly does, choking on blood, unable to even breathe. Suffering alone before death takes hold...
But
Fate has another plan.
The hero wakes once again. In a strange world. One that the hero will not yet understand. The modern world. One without magic or kingdoms, but cities and technology.
