edit: or are you implying "saving a small RAT kingdom?"

hehe.. no... just a regular human kingdom...
I know what you mean... It's just that I'm making my first game and I read your post and it kinda describes my game hehe (well... it's probably a pretty standard fantasy RPG story anyway)...

My game world will be composed of three kingdoms:
The powerful, big empire. (At war with the small one)
The small, noble kingdom (home of the protagonist)
The exotic island kingdom (not gonna be visited, probably for a sequel)

Ok, I better stop writing. I don't want to deviate the topic hehe.
I do really like the concept of changing protagonist by chapters (Or have different overlapping stories for them). It has been done a lot in commercial RPGs (SNES ones for example), but I think that if done well it never gets old

1 - Epicness
Most RPG plots have to do with something as big as save the world, kill the evil wizard who's going to destroy the world, get the crystals to restore the balance of the world, or at the very least bring peace among the peoples of the world. While it's a cliche, maybe people don't want to play a game where your goal is to rescue a kitten, find a lost hat, or even save the main character's lover, because it doesn't feel "big" enough. Feeling big is usually good motivation. It often works.

But my gripe is when an RPG really starts with a story that makes the main character feel very insignificant, like the first battle just has you fighting slimes with a pointy stick, and his dream is to one day become a guard or something. But instead he's eventually given the overly ambitious task of being GUARDIAN OF THE WORLD.

Say...
cleaning a basement from rats before realizing you have to save a SMALL KINGDOM (not the world hehe) would bother you Darken? =S

I was just watching the season finale from Glee the day I was making this map =)
hehe... pretty pointless I think, but funny!
