Chapter 3

So it was a few days later, enticed by the Imperial Recruiter once more, Atrellio took that blood oath
and bound himself to the Empire. It seemed that Atrellio was the last in the current batch of recruits,
and often he found the others training had already advanced beyond his. But he took what audience he
could even if it was smaller than desired.
With citizenship came many benefits, a target audience for one. An actual Palace to meet with the
other Imperial citizens. An actual Palace...

It also brought with it new enemies. Seemed that taking citizenship put a target on his back, but well
considering in the past he got vegetables and even chairs thrown at his head, was that really such a
big change. At least now he could put a name to his foes.

The Empire was currently without an Emperor. There was a full council, and Atrellio had no way of knowing
how the vote would go. So he went out of his way to assist the council members whenever he could.
A little inconvenience now, could bring great dividends in the future, or so he hoped.
