Summary
When the way the Empire works (the way it always has) isn't good enough, someone has to step up to the platform and fix it; but fixing this would be much more difficult than Signless had ever anticipated. What his ancestor had done, he felt he had to reverse. That was his purpose.
But change is always slow, and may of the people that need it never feel it. Trolls who weren't really trolls, like #28374991, knew this very well. Life is terrible, painful and short, and it is simply best to accept it and move along. Some trolls are people, and some trolls are property, and he was of the latter kind-- bound to serve the aristocracy of the Empire for the little time he had.But how can anyone fix an Empire filled with powerful people opposed to change and under-privileged people who had no say for the changes they wanted?
Not without copious amounts of distress, death, betrayal and (because what sort of work would this be without it) romance, of course.Follow Signless and Psiioniic as they waft their way through political bullshit to find a happy, healthy and loving matespritship.
(And watch out for the eventual sequel, where Sollux and Karkat show up, and even more drama unfolds)Series
