Liver led Esdeath's personal guard unit, "The Three Beasts"—the strongest fighting force under her command. He was a seasoned, disciplined soldier who served her with unwavering loyalty.
Before that, he'd been a decorated general in the Empire's military and held a position above Bulat. Things fell apart during the Empire's campaign in the Southern Lands when he refused to accept bribes from the Prime Minister. False charges were leveled against him, and despite presenting a solid defense at his court-martial—backed by his service record and accomplishments—the tribunal ruled against him anyway. He ended up imprisoned with no prospect of release.
Esdeath saw potential in him rotting away in a cell. She had him freed on the condition he'd serve under her, both because she recognized his value as a soldier and because she wanted to shield him from the Prime Minister's reach. It was a debt Liver never forgot. Given a second chance at a military career, he became one of Esdeath's most devoted followers.
Years later, Liver and Bulat—once superior and subordinate—crossed paths again aboard the cruise ship Ryussen. Their lives had taken them in opposite directions, and when they finally confronted each other, they fought to the death, their conflicting loyalties and ideals hanging in the balance.
