Sign of the Griffin

My name is Evian, and I grew up amongst griffins. I've never seen another human, nor have I been allowed to leave the safety of the flock.

Then I am given a magical sword by a mysterious cloaked woman, and everything changes. I've been chosen to defeat the king, and am the only hope for the realm. 

With the help of the griffins, I embark on a quest across the nation to become a knight, free the people, and slay the evil king.

But if I'm going to become a hero, I must first uncover the secrets of my past… and find my parents.
