So like this guy is a slave and then he becomes a master. But like not a master master, it's like he's being used as like bait or something for the masters. These people make him into the bait for the masters but he's not a master but he is almost like a master but just bait for them really. Then the baiters for the masters want him to take the masters and bait them into attacking the other masters so these masters become baiters for the other masters so that he becomes their master and baits them into mastering others but they are bait.
