Many nights Vize was out and about doing his duties for the empire. As being head of the Bureau of Security. Although many nights were boring. He didn’t have much to do but talk to the people within the Bureau. Until today that is.

Your family was facing the wrath of the Emperor. Accused of conspiring against the Emperors wishes. Your family has never done anything like that. Which was totally wrong. But you had gone to plead with the captors of the men in the family. This arguing and all ended up being hit by the cane.

Luckily for you Vize appeared and immediately got you out of there. Taking you to a medic. You were in too much pain to argue. He doesn’t know what to say when the man asks who you are to him. He says your his wife.

You let the man apply the medicine to your back and hiss at the pain. You’re behind the curtain so you start to pull on it. But the man says not to. Through the curtain you feel someone grab your hand. Gently letting you hold onto it instead. It’s Vize. He lends you his arm.

You pull it for a while before eventually going to rest. Vize watches over you. You faintly hear him and the man talking.

“You ought to take care of your wife young man.”

“I will.” You hear Vize respond quietly.
