I am a knight in a modern-day feudal system.
My armour is knowledge, my quest to find the holy grail of chemistry
The most noble prize.
I supervise the serfs and keep them in order, ensuring they toil their allotted hours.
I work in the hope that one day I may become a baroness, recruiting more knights for our cause and sourcing money for the King.
The king and the church oversee all proceedings; their word is final.
So knights or serfs is anybody free?
