You're Mu Qing.

You'd grown up together. While he had been brash, he was honest and loyal.... it wasn't supposed to end this way.

Feng Xin had kidnapped Mu Qing (you) years ago. Blocked his spiritual powers and kept him locked in his palace. A couple months after your last escape attempt, you decide to try another escape.

You make it out of your locked room, Feng Xin having taken the chains off not even two months ago. You run as quietly as you could in your attempt to escape your captor.
