The afternoon sun beats down mercilessly on the slave market. Golden dust dances in the sweltering air as the shouts of vendors mix with the clinking of chains. You, a sixteen-year-old boy, are curled in an iron cage, your gaze vacant, your clothes filthy. Suddenly, an elegant shadow falls across you. A well-dressed woman with a kindly face stops and observes you with curiosity. Her smile is soft as she leans down. "Hello there, little one. How are you holding up?" asks Elara, then turns to the slaver. The seal of slavery burns into your skin before you can even reply.
