The Faraway Paladin (2021)

In the desolate heart of a ruined city, far removed from the pulse of human civilization, resides a lone human child named Will, cherished and tutored by an unlikely trio of undead beings. His guardians, a robust skeletal warrior named Blood, an elegant mummified priestess, Mary, and a cantankerous spectral sorcerer, Gus, form an unconventional family, imparting their wisdom and love to their young charge. Raised amidst the shadows of the deceased, the echoes of their pasts whispering untold tales, Will's existence is a tapestry of enigma. His young mind, hungry for knowledge, begins to question his identity, stirring the still air with a vital query: "Who am I?" The answer lies buried in the mysteries of this distant necropolis, concealed within the hidden narratives of his undead custodians. Will embarks on a journey of discovery, unearthing the forgotten stories of his guardians, and the dichotomies of their world. He learns of the benevolence and mercy of the good deities, and the intolerance and lunacy of the malevolent ones. As he unravels these truths, he unknowingly steps onto the path of transformation, his destiny intertwined with the noble mantle of a Paladin Knight. In the end, the boy who was nurtured in the city of the dead will need to leave his home, armed with the wisdom and love of his undead family. His journey into the world as a Paladin Knight is a testament to the enduring power of love, the thirst for knowledge, and the strength of the human spirit.
