The Faraway Paladin: Volume Four

The Faraway Paladin, Book 4

By: Kanata Yanagino, James Rushton - translator

Narrated by: Liam Price

After returning from the battle at the Rust Mountains, what awaited Will was not a fairytale ending or another terrifying threat, but the commonplace events of his everyday life.

His friendship and a fierce battle with his dependable ally, the swordsman Reystov. An adventure in a snow-filled forest with the troubadour Bee. A battle with an ancient indomitable giant. And prayers and conversation with the god of the flame.

Penned by the Paladin, these are the stories of a single winter.

Filler

If you're here to continue the anime, don't bother. This is just the filler side stories and slice of life bits from the beginning of season 2. Plus a couple extra short stories. I honestly had a hard time finishing it, despite its short length. And as always, the narrator keeps up with the unnatural inflections and the bad acting "whaaa!?"
