3''The Hexbreaker'' is one of the stories of ''Literature/AnthologiesOfUllord'' by Creator/NikkiFlynn and Creator/EdwinDantes. It is one of the Journeying Bard works that follows Yurius, Denorei, Ariana and Kroedin. The story includes the events of a single evening for the party and thieves that were stalking them during their journey through a forest. ''The Hexbreaker'' acts as a tie in between the characters in the Journeying Bard works, the [[AlwaysChaoticEvil Sama]], the Oberoni wetlands and the Myrefall works.

6!!Tropes found in ''The Hexbreaker'':
7* ChekhovsGun: Yurius' sword is brought up in a flashback to shortly after he and Denorei began dating.
8* TheDarkArts: The story includes hexing powder as well as necromancy. Hexing powder is common enough in the world that people know what it is and its effects, but it is still treated as the dark arts. Necromancy, on the other hand, has an entire church of a god against it.
9* HappyFlashback: It breaks up the main story.
10* MacGuffinTitle: The Hexbreaker.
11* MoodDissonance: This was done intentionally with happy beautiful flashbacks versus the dark and creepy current situation. The purpose of this is to show Yurius as the sweet, loving, gentle person he is in his day to day life versus how he behaves during the modern events of the story.
12* {{Necromancer}}: The swamp elf family act as them. They also play around with other dark and creepy magics.
