Here is one dedicated to the cause.
Born into slavery but freed by nothing more than happenstance.
Trust is hard earned. And with good reason! The life he has been shown has taught him... You will be walked on. You will be betrayed. You will be beaten. Subjugated. Tortured. Enslaved.
What could be worse than slavery?
A life of your own. A taste of happiness. To die with dignity. A slave cannot even dream of such things. Hope only paves the way to even greater despair.
Slavery is worse than a physical death. Slavery is the death of the spirit. When the body dies, the spirit goes free. A slave who finds such release is lucky.

As a slave, one can never realise one's destiny.

Justin will never forget the feeling.
