An aristocrat? Haha, nothing of the sort. Truly the opposite, really. To make a long story short and not to bore you, back in my world, this fortress doubled as a prison. I came here when I was about thirteen, and after a twenty year sentence, I worked my way up in the world and eventually found myself in a position that'd have me take control of it.
...To make it a better place, for those who could no longer be part of functioning society, to give them a second option to going forward in life, regardless of the crimes they've committed.
It's no longer a prison here--thankfully--but the concept is the same. I want this to be a place where people can live and have community. Therefore the money to run this place comes from several places--both from my own pocket, from the job I work in the city as one of its protectors--as well as from the Aides du Meropide. A group that Maxima and the others living down here organized to help me with the costs.
