Enjoy this cover story of Dragon Quest 5's \"Toward the Horizon\" (AKA: Dragon Quest V's overworld theme). This woodwind trio features Mohawk Gaymer on flute and clarinet and subversiveasset on sax. Be sure to check Mohawk Gaymer's channel for the companion collab of \"Homeland\" from Dragon Quest IV.
For this cover story, I focus on the life of The Hero, Madason. Please note that if you are not familiar with the plot of Dragon Quest 5, then the text of this cover story will feature spoilers. Feel free to listen without paying attention to the video if you want to avoid spoilers.
One thing you'll note if you play DQ5 is that the hero's luck stat typically doesn't rise when he levels up. Luck is normally a \"gameplay-only\" stat that has no implications on plot, but if you think about all the stuff that happens to Dragon Quest 5's hero over the course of the game, it makes a surprising amount of sense why he has such low luck (and also why all of Akira Toriyama's drawings of the DQ5 hero as an adult feature him frowning or grimacing.)
