Kaliora Kingdom. A land of beautiful marble spires piercing the sky, a splendid castle with domed roofs, and the finely made houses of the nobles.
But of course, that was only the inner city.
The middle and outer rings of the city were a place of squalor and crime, with the middle ring being only slightly better than the outer ring, which was nothing more than a very large slum. The King, Hadrian, was a despot, and filled with greed, increased taxes to nearly double their previous amount to fill his coffers and hold lavish parties to entertain foppish nobles. The middle class became poor, and the poor became poorer, with many dying of starvation or going to work in one of the kingdom's many brothels or mining crews. Talk of a rebellion was rife in secret circles all over the middle and outer rings, each with their own agenda for wanting the king out of the picture. But they all shared one common goal:
The king had to go. Somehow.
It is in the guardhouse of the middle ring where our champion finds herself, getting literally kicked rudely out of bed by the Minotaur captain.
"Oi! Gerrout of bed, ya lazy flopear! We gotta do drills! Five minutes!" He yells before storming around the room and kicking the other new recruits out of bed and leaving the room once they're all on the floor.
"Ugh... Fucking asshole..." One of the male fox morphs grumbles.
"I know, right? Such a dick... But then again, they all are." A human female says, rolling her eyes.
"Yep. Minos in a bloody nutshell..." A male wolf morph agrees.
"Well, nothing else we can do. We signed up for it. Anyway, we should probably get ready before he comes back in here and rapes one of us in the ass..." The fox morph mutters before going to the chest at the foot of his bed and taking out a suit of leather armor before putting it on.
The other cadets nod and do the same.
