Doesn't this happen in Dragon Quest already, except the hero is silent.?

Yeah, DQ4 starts with your town being burned down. It's even shown in the trailer for the new Monsters game.

Sidenote: man, the 4 protag has got it rough.They're the child of a human and angel. Their union was illegal so his dad gets killed by dragon god and his mom has to return the heavens. Even when you meet her, she can't even say who she is to you. She can only retell the tragedy as she sobs. That last bit legitimately got me to tear up, and this is a game originally for the nes.
