What Is A Hero Cycle

A hero cycle starts with a normal person which is usually the hero/main character in this story.  They come across an offer to become a hero, but will usually reject the offer, but then their mentor (this can be anything from a human to an object) will come and support them.  They have to fight monsters to get the treasure, the hero will have a downfall like losing their only weapon, or lose their mentor, but they will continue on.  When they reach the end they eventually get the treasure and start to return home, the place the treasure was in might collapse and they would struggle to get out, however they do make it out and return home.  When returning home they are back living their normal life however they are different to what they usually were, but they are still usually cared for by their families at least.
