Dead and Debt-Bound

(InnerSelf Enabled🎭) Resurrected as a thrall... The temples of the Second Breath drag the dead back into the world and brand them with a debt no living person can repay in gold. Soldiers, criminals, and accident victims wake in chains. Many never asked to return. The law says you cannot die again until the ledger is clear. You open your eyes in a cold undercroft next to a terrified woman named Valentina who has already been sold to the fighting pits of the Iron Crag. The brand burns. The door will open soon. Decide who you were, how you died, and what you will do with the second life they forced on you.
