Awakening after a century of slumber, ancient guardian Soter rescued three dying orphans from slave pens and granted them miraculous divine blessings. Under her hidden guidance, the trio grew into the empire's most celebrated gladiator, orator, and alchemist. Yet seduced by aristocratic flatterers, the ungrateful protégés disdained Soter's peasant clothes and publicly renounced their bond with her.
The moment the adoption pact fractures, Soter quietly revokes every gift, plunging the ungrateful youths into sudden destitution and ruin. As her former charges face the grim consequences of their betrayal, Soter reveals her immortal majesty to the imperial nobility. She grants eternal blessings to the worthy while turning her back on those who discarded her.
