Summary
Non-interference is how things should be, because with a still developing world around them, to impose themselves upon it and its people would be a perpetuation of an age old conflict. But things are never simple, and as the Chicago Wards find themselves in the Seven Kingdoms, they have to tread the delicate balance of ensuring the people of Westeros retain their autonomy while still trying to change an unfair system for the better.
The story features a group of super powered heroes who find themselves in an unfamiliar world, caught in a web of politics as various forces seek to turn them to their side. They are agents of change, a great power that comes with tremendous responsibility.
Gospel of the Lost Gods features a rotating roster of POV characters, Taylor is one of them but she is by no means they most important.
PS: The story is not about munchkinry of any kind, if that's what you're looking for then it might be the best idea to give this story a miss.

Summary
"In stories this is always easy. There's magic and powers, and quick steps to claiming that power for one's self. This doesn't feel true for me. I'm supposed to be a Champion, whatever that means, and yet I don't feel important. I don't have all the bells and whistles, which honestly feels familiar even in a new world. But what was I expecting? I haven't had the worst life - there are people with worse problems than mine - I've known what it is to struggle, to be pulled down instead of being helped up.
This is nothing new."
When in great peril, the Kingdom of Althor has no choice but to send a call into the void, beseeching the Fates to bring them a man who would save them from the coming darkness. Unfortunately the path the Fates chart is often unknowable to men and the Champion who appears is not what the kingdom expected.
Unwitting Champion is a story of a guy displaced, dealing with trying to survive in a world where he is no longer a person but a tool, and - at least from the reaction of those around him - a shoddy one at that. His major goal is to survive long enough that either he can run or find a way home, both options which need him to first be embroiled.
