I was born a proud Imperial. Daughter to prominent merchants based on Cubeo; with ambitions to one day make my own fortune among the stars and ascend to the ranks of the Senatorial class. But I was betrayed, my ship destroyed by a rival and I myself captured from the escape pod. I was always taught that the Imperial system forbade chattel slavery, that all Imperial Slaves were but indentured workers working off debts under contract. What a fool I once was. For years, I labored in Zemina Torval's mines, my captors cruelly indifferent to the illegal circumstances that had led to my enslavement. I watched my youth, my health, my future, wither before my eyes.

And then, she came for us. Aisling Duval, Princess of the Empire, freed us from our chains. I swore that day to serve her loyally until my death, and to see justice done for the suffering I had endured. Failing that, I shall have my revenge.
