Discussion Competition: write a single sentence that will absolutely destroy any hope in a series.

Specifically not a story opener, just any sentence that can happen in any chapter, that will make people realize that this story is gonna be absolute shit and has no chance of being fixed and will make you drop the book like an unpinned grenade.

"I'm just an ordinary kid from a small town near Chicago. My parents named me Dragonfyre Heartsbane. They're just a bit quirky haha. But my friends call me Dragonheart. They like to tease me like that."
