--------------------------- Original title: The Road to the Capital
Naomi sat restlessly in the jostling darkness of the metal cage. She could feel the heat from the day settle on her skin. Besides her were two girls that had been sold from the village next to hers. Naomi knew them to be cousins from her outings in their town's market. They had both been owned by the wealthy Lord and Lady of their area. It was as uncommon to have slaves in this region so far from the capital as it was to see a magician or member of court.
The area was ripe with gossip amongst the scurrying villagers. Naomi could not begin to count the hundreds of whispers about the parties that took place there. Drinks were flowing until daz break and the squeals of pleasure echoed through the Lord and Ladys' hall. Some even were bold enough to claim to hear the moaning from their homestead to the main square. But, regardless of history, the two were owned by a well-known family. They must have fetched a fair price.
The two sat side by side wearing identical white dresses. Their brown eyes casted downwards as they stared at their clasped hands. Naomi marveled at the symmetry and meekness. From her seat, Naomi felt like the material looked to be some form of silk. She hadn't seen silk since the wedding of the Lord and Lady that owned the girls. Whatever it was it was a very thin material and to Naomi's blushing surprise she could see the outline of their breasts and their pink nipples poking out from the chill of the air from the translucent color.
Naomi tried not to remember the horrible scene from earlier. Waking up to a seemingly mundane day had been the last happy thought before everything changed. Her step-mother had been her only living family since the passing of her father. She'd worked hard to keep her stay but the times had been tough and the winters long. She had been sold alongside her father's golden harp, a family heirloom that had been her great-grandfather. She could feel her shoulders tense as she pulled herself from the memory. The memory felt as heavy as the chains around her neck and wrists.
Blinking away tears, her eyes fell to the corner of their cage. She studied the dark area for a while. Feeling her eyes adjust to the lack of light she started to see the outline of a man. He had not spoken to them once since they had entered the cage and Naomi hadn't even noticed him. She wondered if the other girls had noticed him and even more so if they even cared?
The journey to the capital was a day and a half. The man in the corner did not move. The cousins were more restless. They were clearly not used to such a confined space. Every jostle they moved and every turn they paced. Naomi's room in her step-mother's home had been the size of this cage and so she sat in peaceful sorrow; she was fully resigned to her fate.
Finally, the maddening silence pushed one of the cousins to venture a small squeak of a question, "Do you know where they are taking us?"
At this the man stirred and looked at her. His long dark hair covered his face, and he sat with his legs out and his head in between his knees. Naomi could see fresh lashes on his arms and winced at how infected they already looked.
In the darkness he spoke softly, "They will take us to the slave market. If no master or mistress will have you then you will be sent to the pleasure district,"
"What is that?" Naomi implored, her eyes wide and in shock.
"It is a horrible place," the other cousin whispered, her face was more angular than her cousin's. Her sharp cheekbones jetted out and her breasts looked more supple. Naomi noticed that she could see where in the girl's sitting position the dress had fallen deep into the crevice of her sex. Naomi started as she realized her unabashed gaze was caught by the sister's smile and raised eyebrow. Naomi quickly averted her eyes.
"Yes, I see. So if you are bought by one master then you serve that one master. And if you are lucky he or she is not cruel. And if you are luckier he or she is perhaps kind," the first cousin said, as if seeking a resolution to her question.
The man in the corner chuckled as if reading her thoughts, "But at the pleasure district you serve all."
"Yes and what is so bad about this place? I've never even heard of it..." Naomi sputtered out, startled at her own daring.
But before either girl could respond the man raised his head and spoke.
"It is where any person who has two pennies he can rub together may come in and use you as he sees fit."
Naomi caught the man's eyes as he spoke and she looked away. His bright blue eyes and dark black hair were an intriguing contrast for her. She felt strange emotions whirl around inside her and it felt as if her core were vibrating.
He continued speaking, "The capital has many of them that service different districts in the area. Imagine a giant farm, but instead of stock in stalls it is slaves, and instead of crop or meat production it's only purpose is pleasure. Except not your pleasure, no, it is for their pleasure. And the worst is that you can never escape."
"How do you know this?" Naomi demanded, her wide brown eyes filling with tears of disbelief.
"Because I was there."
