These Heroes were divided into three strict categories:
Talent Heroes
Special Talent Heroes
Unique Talent Heroes
But there was a pattern. One that no one ever really seemed to notice or talk about.
None of the Heroes across the three Empires became Heroes simply because they wanted to be. They only earned that title because they made the fatal mistake of being discovered while showing off their Talents.
There were undoubtedly others out there—prodigies who realized how rigged the game was from a young age and chose to run, hiding their abilities entirely.
However, once you were branded a Hero, your fate was no longer your own. You became a political pawn, a high-value puppet dancing on strings pulled by the Emperor. From that point on, you only had two choices: accept your role in the system, or live the rest of your life being ground into dust by it.
