It’s also the plot of Forego Quest (a short novelette included in the book Dragons Banker). the hero is not just the chosen one, he’s THE chosen one, as in, the chosen one of every prophecy and myth. His body is covered in different birthmarks from hundreds of prophecies, he stumbles on unique magic weapons to defaet a dark lord at every coner (they sell for a nice profit), every inn he enters, the maid is suddenly super pretty and starts going on about actually being a princess in distress or some such. And he’s having none of it.

i quite enjoyed that one, and as a novelette it’s short enough to not overstay its welcome.

The main book was ok, had some nice ideas but nothing too spectacular. It’s about some magic kingdom intoducing bank notes instead of gold and a dragon hiring a banker to convert its hoard of gold into this new currency without being noticed or crashing the market.
