Nasario

At 14 years old, Nasario believes that his life is unfair and dull. He feels alone and misunderstood, especially in the small town he has lived his entire life. There’s only one way out: leave for far away, to find fortune and return as a success. His initial path will bring him to unique regions and fantastic characters, but the most important lesson is often hidden somewhere along the way.
