Dream of Chains

In a world defined by oppression and endless chains, a man reflects on his captivity, the old man who oversees their march, and the hope for freedom. As they march towards a decrepit warehouse, questions of freedom and submission haunt the man's mind. When a fellow prisoner breaks free, the old man reacts violently, but another man-one who has already been freed-steps in to stop him, shattering the chains of all those still bound. The protagonist finds himself as the last in line, still shackled, yet his perspective begins to change as he realizes that freedom is not just about breaking physical chains but finding the strength to move forward. The story ends on a note of possibility, with the protagonist stepping into a new beginning.
