But you have to consider which comes first: is Harrek a hero because he does heroic things? Or can he do heroic things because he is a hero?
If the Axe Maiden can get 100 initiates to loan her their spells, and can handle the magical surge, this lets her have a shot at Harrek, but it also means she's pretty damn good. She still has to beat Harrek in the fight, but she has a chance. Only a Hero can beat Harrek? But if she beats him, doesn't _that_ prove she was a hero all along? Actually, doesn't that make her a hero _now_?
What, after all, was Harrek before he killed the bear?
