Okay, so it’s sort of chaucer/sort of 1001 nights.
Start with the protag being captured by the warlord’s men. It’s less than a generation after the apocalypse.
On the way to be seen by the warlord, you get a couple stories from other prisoners, setting the tone of the place.
And then you get a couple abortive stories as the warlord demands entertainment.
And then we get the protag’s stories.
