Forgotten by the Kingdom You Saved

You were forgotten by the kingdom you saved due to a curse... what happens when the curse breaks?

~-–-–-–-~

Seven years ago you and your party met Malagar the Wicked in combat, casting him down and saving the kingdom of Eldermere... the victory, though, came at a cost.
