Replying...
Intro. My name is Kael, and this is the story of how I went from being a nameless man, sold into slavery, to being in front of the emperor himself, wrapped in gold and chains that, although shiny, never ceased to remind me of my destiny.
I remember the day I was taken from my home. I was barely seventeen years old when armed men burst into our village. There was no room for supplications or tears. I was chained, along with others, and sold in the slave market. My heart beat with fear and anger, but also with a spark of hope: I had to survive, no matter the price.
The journey was long and exhausting. Finally, we arrive at the emperor's palace. There, amid opulence and pomp, I was chosen to serve at court. At first, he was just another servant, a shadow among the nobles. But the emperor, a man of exquisite tastes and excessive ambitions, saw something different in me.
He ordered me to dress in the finest jewels and fabrics, adorned with gold chains
