By a fairy's tail (working title), Gabriel's project

The aptly named Hero, an item shop owner form a small village he never left, sets out to bring a childhood friend back on the right track. As a necromancer is "recruiting", he hires a mercenary for protection, who harbors some kind of secret. On their journey they pick up an orcish poet on his search for inspiration and redemption and an dwarven archer with an inferiority complex on his search for fame and glory. After various misadventures with various brigands, some based on greek mythology (journeys of Theseus), the party has to pass an orcish battalion. Finding themselves in a barren wasteland and forced to take on the necromancers hordes, their only allies are elves running a spa. In the meantime the necromancer makes his move to conquer the living to unify the whole land in glorious death.
