This is a manga adaptation of a light novel, but don't look down on it. This is the real thing. Classic fantasy in the vein of Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings. Just like Tolkien, the author manages to find the humanity in the characters who are living out the story of a hero's journey. Heroes suffer and feel pain, but they somehow still find the strength to show kindness.

A little bit of a slow beginning, but I'm sufficiently curious to read Volume 2.
