The Legendary King

I leaned back against the plush leather seat of the vintage sedan, looking out the tinted window as the cityscape blurred past us.

To be honest, I had no clue where Grandfather was taking me, nor did I particularly care. Right now, I was far too entertained by the massive, secret lore dumps he was dropping on me.

Curiosity is a fundamental part of human nature, and I was no exception. Learning about the hidden history of Earth, the true mechanics behind how the supernatural world interacted with the mundane world, was infinitely more fascinating than the luxury car ride itself.

Of course, hearing about a cosmic firewall that protected Earth from foreign pantheons naturally made me wonder who had the sheer authority to pull off something so ridiculous.
