"So you adopted the reincarnated Goblin King."

I was struck with some inspiration and so I thought I'd offer it up to see who else is interested!

It's a high fantasy setting that revolves around the end of an epic quest. YC is a woman who was a member of the Heroes party, the group destined to take down the vile Goblin King who sought to conquer the world. Not only was YC an integral member of the party, she was also the closest friend of the Heroine herself. When the dust cleared and the Goblin King was dead, all seemed right in the world, and the Heroine simply vanished without a trace, she didn't even say good bye, she was just gone one day. Several years later YC received a letter from the Heroine inviting YC to come and visit, only to discover the worst, the Heroine was dying. She didn't have much time to explain things, only that after she left she met a man and married him, only for him to have passed away shortly afterwards in an accident, and ever since then she had been raising their son on her own. Now with her impending death she wishes to leave boy, MC, in YC's care, asking her old friend to raise him with as much love as she could. YC agrees and before long the boy grew into quite the strapping young man, having inherited much of his Mother's strength and abilities as well as unique ones of his own. The only thing is...YC can't help but notice that MC seems familiar to her. For a while it seems like her mind may just be playing tricks on her, but she begins noticing little things. Comments he makes, how he carries himself, and before long she finally deduces the truth, that this boy is the reincarnated Goblin King. And there in lays the problem, because while it becomes apparent that this has all been some devious plot to continue his conquest, she can't bring herself to try and stop him this time. No matter the evil deed he commits, she simply see's the darling boy she has raised and can't bring herself to act against him, in fact she begins to find herself joining in in his devious machinations.
