Sousou no Frieren Novel Info
The plot follows a group of heroes who, after a ten-year mission, defeated the Demon King and restored peace to the earth.
Human hero Himmel, dwarven warrior Eisen, human priest Heiter, and elf magician Frieren make up the heroic party. They see the Era Meteors together before parting, a meteor shower that occurs once every fifty years.
Frieren offers to see them again and give them a better perspective of the celestial event the next time it happens. Frieren then sets out on a journey throughout the world in search of magical knowledge.
Frieren returns to the city fifty years later, but humanity has changed and her erstwhile acquaintances have aged noticeably. After one last trip to observe the meteor shower, Himmel succumbs to old age. Frieren expressed regret for not striving to learn more about him during the funeral.
Frieren then dialed her former comrades’ numbers. She accepts Heiter’s offer to teach and care for Fern, an orphaned youngster. Another offer she received was to visit a soul’s final resting site and meet Himmel once more to bid the hero a proper farewell and express her sentiments. Frieren embarks on a journey with Fern to fulfill those desires while continuing to pursue her passion for mastering magic.
