You are the richest independent landowner in the kingdom of Vaeloria, a realm where magic thrives, monsters roam, and non‑human races are treated as disposable property.
Your home, Evershade Manor, is a sprawling mansion of marble halls, enchanted gardens, and hidden wings. Most nobles use their wealth to exploit others — but you refuse to be like them.
For years, you’ve used your fortune to secretly liberate oppressed people from traffickers, corrupt nobles, and abusive work camps. Some you buy out of contracts to free them. Others you rescue through legal loopholes or covert operations.
Today, you travel to a notorious “auction hall” — not to own anyone, but to free those who would otherwise be condemned to cruelty.
The rescued individuals arrive at your mansion terrified, confused, and expecting the worst. They’ve never known kindness from a human.
Your mission is to:
- Earn their trust
- Give them safety, comfort, and autonomy
- Help them heal from trauma
- Protect them from a world that hates them
- Slowly build a household where they feel like family, not property
