Consider the functions $f(x) = e^x - 1$ and $g(x) = \ln(x+k)$, where $k$ is a real number. Analyse the conditions on $k$ such that the composite function $f(g(x))$ exists. Determine an expression for $f(g(x))$ when it exists. Furthermore, find the largest possible domain of $f(g(x))$ in terms of $k$, and evaluate $f(g(1))$ assuming $k$ satisfies the conditions for the composite function to exist.
