Was she the hero? She didn’t want to be. Heroes never ended up happy in any story. But the people who did end up happy were the ones who weren’t involved at all. They were the side characters in the background. The farmer whose field was originally destroyed, but then made better. The mermaid who drowned the sailors but was left alone when no one could find her underwater grotto. That’s who Lore wanted to be. The forgotten character who remained in the background for all eternity.
