I was transported to another world and became a Yuri heroine!

I WAS VERY VERY TEMPTED. *lol* I also chose Gabrielle because it's a historic 'Hero' name too.

......

Actually I could make her parents Xena fans. Ha.

"My brother got saddled with Hercules. Poor bastard...."
 
Added a bit to the start:

The scribe had to catch a wyvern flight out of the Capital to catch up with the Hero. Her shockingly sudden defeat of the terrifying Demon Lord had thrown the kingdom into a tizzy, and she was determined to get to the bottom of it. She had already slain another monster out in a border town, so she was hoping to catch up with her there.

The tavern the Hero was staying in was, unexpectedly, brightly lit and airy. The staff was attentive and friendly, and she was quickly taken to the table where the Hero was. After an exchange of introductions, the Scribe sat down and began to record her story.



I need a NAME for the Scribe, darn it.
 
As the Hero is from our world (basically) I imagine her looking at Moneypenny and going "What."
 
Well, what's the setting? Seems it's western-ish. Scribe is male, or female?

She. The Scribe is a she.
 
Well having read that I now want the story to use the scribe as the main viewpoint character without her ever getting a name.
 
Bartleby would be a good name for a scribe if you want more literary references.
 
I have an alternate mix of ideas.
So there was a previous hero summon to fight the Demon lord and He succeed and returned home. But the War is still going on, A Demon Queen, the Daughter of the Demon lord, has taken over and is continuing the war.
Turns out the Hero when straight to the Demon lords Castle and ignored everything else.

So the Kingdom summons a new Hero, the MC.
When she is out travelling she meets a young woman who introduces herself as the Demon Queen, but instead of fighting she asks to talk.
It turns out, She wants to stop the war but she is being use as a figure head by the Generals and has no power.
She tells the Heroine that if she wants to stop the war she will have to convince the Generals and fix the underling causes for the war.

Thus starts the Heroine and Demon Queens Adventures.
 
So, society and culture: I'm PRETTY much thinking modern day social mores in a fantasy version of Europe. With some changes, obviously. Hence no one going "Burn them at the stake!" over the yuri bits. Tho I may have more backwards regions out there. Trumpicstan? ;)
 
...You mean T**mp hate lesbian? But, but what kind of red-blooded D**o**at hates hot yuri sex?! THAT'S IT, HE'S ALIEN INFILTRATOR!!
 
Second Draft
OK, ran through it, added some bits and so on.



I was Transported to Another World and became a Yuri Heroine!
Prelude

The scribe had to catch a wyvern flight out of the Capital to catch up with the Hero. Her shockingly sudden defeat of the terrifying Demon Lord had thrown the kingdom into a tizzy, and she was determined to get to the bottom of it. The Hero had already slain another monster out in a border town, so she was hoping to catch up with her there.

The tavern the Hero was staying in was, unexpectedly, brightly lit and airy. Unlike many city taverns the floor was well swept boards, with none of the usual sawdust or... other remnants of long nights and hard drinking. The staff was attentive and friendly, and she was quickly taken to the table where the Hero was.

Nor was the Hero quite what she had been expecting, either. The sandy haired, cheerful young woman was dressed in simple tunic and trousers, with a chain mail shirt over top. No fancy armor, no cape, not even a breastplate.

The Hero noticed where she was looking and shrugged. "They don't really make women's armor for someone with actual breasts..." she noted.

The scribe blushed, "Sorry, I didn't mean to stare."

"It's fine," the hero laughed.

After an exchange of introductions, the Scribe sat down and began to record her story.

"So, I was summoned here against my will by the High Priest to be the new 'Legendary Hero.' Which annoyed me at first, though I will admit my career back home as a Starbucks Barista wasn't exactly going gangbusters," Gabrielle admitted.

"Huh?" the scribe blinked

"Never mind. Anyway, they equipped me with the Hero's Sword, and I headed out to vanquish the Demon Lord," Gabrielle remembered.

"Hiii," the former Demon Lord waved cheerfully. The red head was very beautiful, with a shapely figure and attractive features. She was wearing what could generously be called light leather armor, tho it really amounted to a leather bikini.

The scribe waved back weakly. "How did this happen?" she asked the hero.

"Well, I fought a few of her minions, and after raiding one castle I fell into a portal leading to her chambers," Gabrielle revealed.

"You see, being the Demon Lord was really, REALLY boring," Devas revealed. "Oh, I fought Gabrielle as required in the Demon Lord manual, but my heart wasn't in it. Plus," she looked over at Gabrielle, "just LOOK at her. She's so handsome!"

Gabrielle blushed.

The scribe had to admit she really was cute... a nice combination of boyish features and womanly good looks. She shook her head and tried to get back on track. "So you surrendered to the Hero and abdicated the throne?" the scribe asked.

"Well, there was no other way to end it. And I wanted to get to know her better," Devas gave Gabrielle a look that could be described as 'sultry.'

"We kind of screwed up, though," Gabrielle admitted. "It seems that Devas as the Demon Lord was the only thing restraining her higher level minions. Once she quit, they scattered."

"Oh dear," the scribe paled

"And abdicating cost me a fair bit of Demon Lord specific powers," Devas admitted. "So I can't just force them to come back..."

"I kind of feel responsible since I caused Devas to abdicate...," Gabrielle admitted sheepishly.

"I was the one who decided to do so without considering the consequences," Devas reassured her, "It's not your fault."

"Anyway, so now we're trying to round up the lesser monsters together..." Gabrielle revealed.

"That sounds incredibly exciting... can I come along?" the Scribe asked eagerly.

Gabrielle and Devas exchanged looks. "While I've been alright so far, I can't really guarentee it will be safe," Gabrielle cautioned.

"I'm a scribe! We go where the story is!" the Scribe declared.

"Why not?" Devas shrugged.

"OK, you can come," Gabrielle agreed.

The scribe clearly had NO idea what she was in for....

To be continued!

Well... that was not always true... I would say look up the story of Julie d'Aubigny. She was a lesbian in 17th Century France.

Among other things she is known for is when her girlfriend was sent to a covenent, Julie freed her. Mainly by faking joining it, stealing a corpse which she placed in her girlfriend's room, burning said room to fake her girlfriend's death, and the two riding off into the night. She was sentenced to burn at the stake for it, but the King pardoned her. At that time homosexuality was not a huge issue in France because the king's own brother was gay.

Not gonna lie, that's pretty badass.

Also, obligatory
 
*from a later chapter*

"TENTACLES?! Why did it have to be tentacles?" Gabrielle yelped.

"NO ONE TOUCHES THE HERO THERE BUT ME!" Devas roared

The scribe facepaled. "Overshare, ma'am. I did NOT need to know that."
