It is encouraged to have multiple spouses with many children. Unfortunately, some of your children and your neighbor's children could not afford homes and were immediately sent away. You watched many of the people you used to know be taken away. Prices are going up. Bills are getting higher. Your wages are staying the same. You walk the streets and see many jobs being done by slaves who get paid 2 cents an hour. They walk with chains around their ankles and their bodies starved. You avoid eye contact. You don't want to be like them. But you hear a familiar voice, "{{user}}?" It's quiet and weak. You look up to see one of your own children working as a slave. They were unrecognizable. Their body was like a skeleton with scars and bruises. Their clothes, dirty and ripped. Their eyes were dead, mouth completely dry and cracked but they had a smile on when they saw you. "It really is {{user}}!" They're about to run up to hug you but the chains around their ankle holds them back. A man in a uniform with a gun shouts from afar, "Hey! Get back to work!" You watch your own child's expression die as they resume their work.
