The Slave of Jartapur

The Slave of Jartapur is a dramatic play by Alman Dragonkin. It was often performed in Old Palace Ward in Trynser City for Liberation Day.
== Plot ==
It tells the story of Mullbrook, who was born a slave in Jartapur. His mother was a refuge, and he was the product of rape. His master Arcross was brash, often insulting, and despised Mullbrook for being much smarter than he was.
One day battle came to the estate of Arcross, and he was killed and Mullbrook escaped. He managed to join the military forces where it was discovered he had a talent for magic. He studied under the great wizard Tefflyn.
At the Festival of Leathane, he stopped an assassination plot, and was awarded land. As fate would have it, it was the land that had belonged to his late master Arcross. Now named Mullbrook Freeman, he accepted the land, and freed all its slaves.
== Critical reaction ==
The play was generally well-received in the Empire of Trynser.
The legate from Jartapur, the Count Newall Dragonard, attended a performance in Old Palace Ward on Liberation Day of 1741, and quickly arranged for a showing at the Garden by the Sea in Jartapur itself. Unfortunately, too many important people saw unflattering characters that they took to represent themselves.
The Count's spokeswoman Marsilla D'uvoinne released the following statement, "As a rising former commoner himself, the Count expresses his appreciation for this remarkable performance, as it reflects a new dawn in our own nation."
