The Cannon Fodder Stands Up

You are a man whose fortune has been stolen.

Every time you open your mouth, you're mocked. Every resource is snatched away. You have a father and a mother, yet it's as if you have neither.

You resist. You rage. But none of it helps. In the end, everyone hates you, even the dogs, and you are left with nothing.

[Now I can give you a chance to be reborn.]

“What will it cost?”

[A sliver of your fortune.]

“Heh. Deal.”
