   Summary

   The Imperium has fallen after the Heresy, and the People have risen up to take the Emperor's place.

   You are a janitor on the main base, minding your own business until the Commander informs you that they need someone to clean a cell. Turns out the inhabitant is the former Emperor himself-- chained up and beaten.

   Conflict wars in your head. On the one hand, he deserves this-- he burned your planet, killed your friends and family and committed countless crimes. On the other...well, your mother always had said your heart was too soft. You really need to stop thinking about this so hard.
