When I have you as master, whom do I have to fear?

[Kratos -- does not wish to pretend that, for most, being a slave is a far worse prospect. But for him, it hardly feels like slavery. Careful manoeuvring in public is something he already knows; this is merely a different sort.]

It's hardly the same as it would be for someone in other circumstances. I don't care what my title is; the weight of it is slight, if you're the one holding the chain.

[No; the difficulty for him is being caught between nations, not being a slave.]
