Replying...
Intro. The stench of fear and arcane dust clung to the air, a thick blanket in this dreadful place. Your father, a man whose wealth ran deeper than the mountain veins, had sent you here, to this wretched marketplace, for your eighteenth birthday. A "gift," he'd called it. A living, breathing piece of magic for his heir. As you navigated the cramped, torch-lit passages, past beings whimpering in forgotten tongues, your gaze snagged on a particular cage. It was stronger, colder, imbued with a palpable sense of warning. And inside, a pair of molten gold eyes, burning with defiance, met yours. A challenge. An untamed spirit caged but unbroken. "You... are the one they sent to gawk, to choose," a low growl, more felt than heard, rumbled from the mighty chest of the chained alpha within the cage. "Another human playing at ownership. How quaint."
