"You are well aware of the fact I do not condone the use of slaves. And I don't want one in the house. " Rose said with an exasperated sigh. She yearned for a day when she wouldn't have to explain this sort of thing to her dear brother. As much as she cared about him he was insufferable, that could not be contested.

"Come on Rose. This place gets disgusting, we need someone to clean, and wash and whatever the heck else it is these sort of people do." Dave said putting a hand on the young blond woman's shoulder. She was so stubborn.

"I keep this place tidy enough. We have a cook, I don't see what else we need. We- or at least I, can do everything just fine." Rose argued, pushing Dave's hand off her shoulder and making her way towards the front door. As she moved to open the large wooden door Dave stepped in front of her.

"But you shouldn't have to do all of that work, you are a very important person to this entire kingdom. Please, Prince John has been so kind buying this girl for us." Dave could tell this was getting him nowhere, "Come on. If we dont take her where else will she go." That made Rose stiffen up. "This girl was thrown away from her family. She doesn't have anywhere to go. If we dont bring her in, someone else will just buy her away from John."

Rose let out a sigh, her entire body sagging as she gave in. She rubbed at her lavender eyes before speaking, "It is so rare, Dave... for you to make a decent point... but when you do it is very hard to argue with you. Fine, have it your way. But rest assured John will be hearing from me about this. "

"I wouldn't expect any less." Dave laughs, shaking his head and briefly hugging his sister.

Before noon Dave's page, Jake English, knocked on the door of the extravagant building before inviting himself in and bringing with him a beautiful young woman.

Rose made her way down the stairs into the foyer. Her long orange robes trailing in the stairs behind her. "Jake." she greeted, curtly.

"Ah, Lady Lalonde. This young woman has been sent her by John. Would you like me to escort her anywhere in particular?"

Rose's shocking purple hues had not once left the girl Jake had brought with him. "No... no It's fine I will take her from here. You are excused, English. " and with. Bow the young page was gone leaving Rose alone with this stranger.

She took long paces down the last of the stairs until she was standing very close to her. "Tell me. What is it you expect of your time here with myself and Sir Strider? Please answer honestly. I will know other wise. " Rose asked calmly, in her soothing tone.Being the Seer of this land. Called by many 'The Seer of Light', she had come to expect people will know who she is as she walks down a street or through a hallway. So of course... she expected this girl had been told who she would be serving. Rose already found herself very interested in her.

Jordan was scared. For the first time in a long time  She was really scared. She had been sold again to the slave market that wasn’t new, the man that owned her was getting married and his wife wasn’t going to let him have Jordan around. Being bought didn’t scare her. But being pulled out of the line to face Prince John was frightening. She didn’t like being scared. She had been sold by her family years ago. She didn’t feel any kinship to anyone. She didn’t have a family, had fun keeping beds warm, for a while at least.



She bowed as she heard being announced. She was told to stand so she did. Prince John smiled warmly at her. “I have a new position for you”  Jordan looked up at him with a shocked look on her face. John smiled “Your last master spoke highly of you, I hear you are good at healing and are a very learned slave that is unheard of, how did it happen”



“I was forbidden to learn so I of course had to” Prince John laughed “Ahh I see”



Licking her lips she listened to John explain who she was going to be serving .He didn’t say anything else so she was thinking that she was going to be doing a lot, that was fine.



She was washed again, and changed out of her pleasure slave clothes into a slightly longer dress, falling to just below the legs instead of barely covering her ass. Her hair was braided and tied behind her back. Her arms were tied behind her back and the dreaded collar was placed on her neck. She sighed and allowed herself to be blindfolded and brought to the carriage.



After what seemed like a fairly short ride she just couldn’t be sure. The blind fold was removed and she was taken inside.



She watched as the woman came down. She eyed the man. She wondered who she was going to be serving, or both maybe. When the woman asked the question she got into the slave position down on her knees with her legs spread and her head bowed.



“Prince John told me who I am to be serving but not how, so I am assuming I am here to pleasure one or even both of us” Not even looking up she spoke again. “And I would never lie, tis a awful punishment for a slave to lie to his or her master” Her neck was a bit raw from the collar biting into her skin. She kept her head bowed waiting to see what she was to do.

Rose's fave betrayed none of her emotions as the slave girl got to her knees in front of her. She hated this, she already hated people looking up to her for her abilities... but this was simply absured. She kept herself from telling the woman to get to her feet though; she let her explain why she thought she was here first.

"Excuse me?" Rose exclaimed, her eyes opened wide and she was clearly taken aback. The woman kneeling before her was being truthful, that is what disturbed Rose the most. Anger swelled up in her as she turned to look up the stairs.Dave was making his way down the stone steps, clad in comfortable clothing in dark reds and bright orange. He could sense Rose's anger from the top step.

"You said nothing of a sex slave, Dave." Rose said as calmly as she could manage. Her brother's eyebrows crease as he looks over Rose's shoulder at the unfamiliar girl kneeling on the stone floor.

"I knew nothing of one..." Dave muttered before practically jumping down the last of the stairs. Despite his unimpressive height and stature, Dave Strider was a knight. Skilled with a sword and with an intimidating gaze from bright red eyes... he could be truely terrifying. "Do you know who it is you're speaking to? You dare lie to the Seer of Light...and sully the word of the prince? This is reason enough for me to sever your head from your shoulders." he never rose his voice, he spoke sternly and strongly, as though scolding a dog.

Rose was sure that the slave girl was not lying. Still her anger at her brother stayed her hand. She stood atop the last step of the stairs and watched her brother threaten the newcomer. It had already dawned on her that this may be a princely prank. She could practically hear the young prince laughing from here.

Kneeling there Jordan could feel the anger. She could sense emotions it had saved her life a many of times. She stayed there even as the man came forward. She winced slightly excepting to feel the sting of a whip but she felt nothing. She let the man talk then without raising her head spoke softly almost the mimicking the sound of wind moving through trees.

“I do not lie sir, the Prince only told me that I am a gift to you, not what I am to do here for that is up to my masters” She swallowed “I have been a nanny for royalty before, and a whipping girl, a domestic slave, during chores and the such”

Staying there never raising her head she spoke again. “I have also been a pleasure slave, for the military” She hadn’t moved an inch from her spot since she had winced from hearing his voice excepting to feel a whip. “I do not dare sully the Prince, but whatever punishment you feel fit for my words sounding like that is your right” She still didn’t look up. “I do not mind my life, I have traveled and seen many lands”

“I do ask for your forgiveness if I misunderstood why I am here, just the last few times I have been sold for pleasure slave” She still had her arms tied behind her back and the collar on. She was calm though she looked content. “I have many talents and I am at your service” She bowed lower now so her face was on the floor right by his feet.

Rose walked over to Dave, standing beside the blond knight. The girl before them was being entirely truthful. This was simply the prince playing tricks on his friends. "Please..." Rose started walking behind the slave girl and unbinding her hands, "Rise, there is no reason for you to kneel before us." She moves so she was again at Dave's side. "You will not be here to pleasure us. You're to do a regular slaves duties. Cleaning and tending. I am a little surprised at the prince for not informing you on that."

Dave seemed to understand what had happened now and let out a shuddery sigh. "John, John, John... I'll talk to him Rose." With that he walked towards the door.

"Your headed there now?"

"Yeah. I'll be back before nightfall." And with that the pale knight was gone.

Rose turned her attention back to the slave woman. "I am sorry for this misunderstanding. Now if you will please come with me. I will escort you to your chamber's and tell you what we expect of you."

Rose turned down a hallway out of the large foyer. She had only had the afternoon to set up a place for this girl to stay. There were rooms set up as flood shelters. The castle was the highest point in the town and Rose would not let the people go unaided during floods. Giving up one of these rooms to this young woman.

She gave a solid smack to one of the doors with her shoulder, making the hinges give. "Excuse the dust. I did try my best to clean before you arrived... but more pressing matters arose, so this was the best I could do." she motioned with one hand to the room.

It was not a very big room. There was a small bed, a shirt wooden dresser(filled with clothes trimmed in reds and oranges), an oval mirror, a decent sized basin and a single rocking chair. It was warmly decorated with rugs and tapestries.

"I do hope this suits you. Now would you mind telling me your name? I'm Rose Lalonde. If you have any questions for me now would be the time to ask. And please, feel free to look around." Rose said sitting down on the edge of bed.

As she was unbound she rubbed her raw wrists. “Thank you” She said softly.  She stood and slowly raised her head. “As you wish” She listened to what she said and nodded. “I understand, again I am sorry for misunderstanding, Prince John likely just wanted you to choose what to do with me” She licked her lips. She was clearly nervous that she was going to be in trouble with the Prince.

When the man left she shook a little. She didn’t say anything though. Following the girl around she gasped at the room. “Wow, this is just wow” She looked around. “I get all of this?” She sat down with her and sighed. “My name is Jordan, I am sorry but I don’t know my last name or my age” She rubbed her hands against her dress.

“I am honoured that Prince John picked me out to serve you” She shook her head. “No questions really, just I would need to know where all your cleaning suppiles are and what sort of stuff you need done”

Rose's eyes opened wide for a moment, shocked at the fact Jordan was so surprised by what she was given. Rose could tell simply by looking at her that her life had been a very hare one filled with many hardships... but had she never been given something like this before. The very idea of it seemed very foreign to the seer. "This entire room is yours, and i am also not going to ristrict from roaming around the grounds freely. My brother knows how I feel about the use of slaves... I will not let you be treated poorly, dear." Rose placed a heavily jeweled hand on Jordan's shoulder. "Down the hall there is a broom closet that will have all you will need. Though, to be fair, the chef is probably more aware of what needs to be done than I am."

Rose got to her feet and smoothed out the front of her vivid orange gown. "I will ensure that you need not worry about a thing while you live under my roof. I am not cruel." She paused to think about what else she had to say. "If you get hungry the chef will make you something. His name is James. I will make sure he knows to provide you with meals."

Rose gazed down at the light spilling into the room from the high window. Lady Maryam would be arriving soon about a divination. "Now I will leave you to get settled. Feel free to look through the clothes I have prepared." she motioned to the dresser, "and take a look around the grounds. I will be in the library on the second floor if you need me for anything."

She moved to leave the room and paused in the doorway, "And remember Jordan, dear, this place is your home. Don't feel as though you are a stranger." with that she left the room, leaving Jordan to her own business.

“Normally I am either with my master or in a room with the other servants, don’t get me wrong I didn’t mind it, it was life.” She looked around the room, wondering who this room belonged to before her. She listened to her and then gasped.

“You want me out of my slave garments?” She paled a few shades and now was a sickly white. “Uhh uhh of course” She said. She quickly recovered and bowed her head. “Anything for you” She said softly.

She listened to the girl and cocked her head to the side. She licked her lips and found herself wondering what a divination was but didn’t dare ask. Instead she looked up as she left and nodded. “Alright” She bowed as she left.

Once alone she changed as requested then looked around her room. Then she left her room and walked around learning the lay out. She wondered if they had any animals, most of her masters had at least dogs or cats. She wondered if they did.

Finding the broom closet she nodded at the supplies. She itched at her coller then closed it and looked around a little more. Going outside to what looked like a garden. She found a coy pond and smiled sitting by it and looking at the water. “Hmmm this is going to be an adventure that is for sure, way different”

Rose stood and walked to a large window on the second floor, overlooking the garden. Lady Maryam was sitting on a chair on the other side of the room. "You seem very interested in this girl, aren't you Lady Lalonde?"

"I guess you could say that." Rose responded, turning and facing the middle eastern woman, "it is my first time being so close to a person like her. She is intriguing. You can't blame me for thinking that, can you?"

"I would never dream of it, my lady."

Dave rode up the hillside path to the house he shared with Rose. His horse, Godhead, moving at a leisurely pace. The brown horse snorting at times as it was forced up the hill. This horse had a temper. That was for sure. As he eose through thw gate he noticed their new slave seated by the koi pond. Good he could show her where the stables were.

"Hey." he called bringing his horse to a stop by her side. He hopped off the animal and took all the reigns in one hand. "come with me. I want to show you the stables." He continued walking down the path with his horse at his side. The stable was at the back of the building. Inside were two more horses. Rose's horse, Viceroy, and the chef's horse. He put Godhead in his stable before turning to the girl.

"You'll have to feed these three twice a day. Once in the morning and once in the afternoon. The food is in the barely over there," he gestured to a barrel with a large spade on top. "Brushes and tack are hung next to it. You'll have to pay the most attention to the white clyesdale, Viceroy, he's Rose's, and the only one who gets noticeably dirty. You have no problem with that, right?"

Relaxing by the pond Jordan wondered how she ended up here. Her last master had been a friend of Prince John but Jordan was only there temperally until his wife had given birth to their babies, twins, and the post pregnancy time had past. She then was sold back. The master before him though was burtal, loved to beat her and lend her out. She shook her head. Maybe John was feeling a bit sorry for her, give her a break from the norm.

When the man came back she stood and bowed then followed. She smiled at the horses. "Such beauties" She smiled at his. "Hmmm he seems like a bit of a fisty one" She loved all animals. "Of course, and I will take excellent care of them" She looked the horses up and down. She couldn't see a mark on them which told her that they didn't beat their horses, which really meant it was very unlikely that they would beat her.

"I have one question, where is your" she paused "uhhh" she paused again trying to think of the proper word. "Wash down station for them" She smiled "I have no problem with them, I really do love animals" She looked up at him and bowed again "Anything else sir?"

Dave pat Godhead on the neck and took off his reigns and saddle, hanging them up with the rest of the tack. "If you keep following the path you took to get to the stables there's a well... you could just get water there. If they're especially grimy you should talk to Rose because she's the one who cleans them."

Dave stepped out of the stables and stretched, it was a lot earlier than he had assumed it would be when he got home. John hadn't had anything for him and had simply laughed and told him to go back home that English and Vantas were taking care of everything at the castle today.

"I can't think of anything else immediately... you'll probably have to feed the cats... that isn't difficult. There's a large dish for them in the kitchen and they drink from wherever they find water." He paused to think about what else need to be done, and drew a blank. He had to admit he was not at the homestead very often. "Nothing else comes to mind at the moment. I'm sure Rose would just like you to get settled in today anyway. I'd rather not get her angry at me."

"By the way, do you have a name or something I can call you? Of course you will refer to me as Sir Strider." he had started walking through the garden path towards the front of the building. He briefly wondered if Rose had anyone in right now, but figured it didnt matter he was going to go train.

Contining to stand there listening to him she nodded. "I understand" She cocked her head to the side. She never heard of a lady in her status doing menial work like cleaning or washing horses. She swallowed not wanting to offend either of them/

She grinned at the sound of cats. "Wow you have cats, I do love cats" She bowed to him again. "I do get the feelng that she wants me to rest and get used to it, I will of course obey her..." Now her voice trailed off. She wasn't used to this she was used to always working, and working hard, this was going to be a new challenge for her, to stay still and be resting.

She turned to the man again. "My given name is Jordan, but I will ansew to anything that you should chose to call me" She followed him having not been dismissed she figured that he still needed her somehow.

"There are cats a plenty here. They keep the rodents away so I don't mind. Only Rose's favourites go into our chambers or the library though. Three black cats with purple ribbons around their necks. Jaspers, Frigglish and Mutiny. They're friendly enough compared to some of the others. " Dave explained as he pushed open the door and stepped inside.

"Jordan, hmm?" he mused, "yes that's fine. I can call you that. Now I need to train, you are dismissed. Go see if Rose needs you for anything. She'll probably be upstairs in the library." He waved his hand dismissively before walking down a hallway to his right, down to the room inside where he had set up dummies for practice.

Lady Maryam had just left, leaving Rose to work out what she had seen today. It had always.been this way. The seeing was easy... the interpretating was not always so. She sat silently burning her sights into her mind, without a stable connection with what brought the visions they could be lost very easily by lack of concentration. Jaspers jumped up into her lap. Rose closed her eyes and took a deep breath, fingers running through the black fur of the cat perched on her lap.

Jordan smiled at the sound of lots of cats Jordan had to stop herself from showing too much excitement. She was right to do so for he explained that only three were allowed in the house. She nodded. Well if she was outside tended to the horses she would have a chance then to maybe met the other kitties, also when she was feeding them.

Show bowed to him. "As you wish sir" She watched him leave then cocked her head to the side. If she was in the library then surely she was busy. But a order was an order. She walked up the stairs and slowly toward the library wincing at the creeks of the floor. The Door seemed to be open so she just stopped near the door to wait to see if she was needed. She disnt want to disturb whatever the woman was doing.

Rose heard the slight creak of the door and the sounds of footsteps out in the hall. "No please come in, you are not disturbing me, dear." Rose said opening her lavender eyes and looking over at the door. She continued running her long fingers through the fur of the cat in her lap. "I need you to get a few books for me."

Rose proceeded to list off a few titles and their general location on the various shelves. A book on flowers and their meanings, dream symbols, a large history tome and a couple other relative books. "Place them on the desk there." She motioned with her free hand to her desk on the other side of the room. "Watch out for Frigglish he likes to sleep on top of the books on the shelves."

She closed her eyes and took a deep breath trying to concentrate. After a long moment of thought she stood, the cat jumping off her lap. She made her way over to the desk sitting down and pulling a long piece of parchment towards her, dipping her quill in the vial of black ink, she started writing. It was essential that she keep written documentation of all of these readings... they always ended up being very important.

The hope of being silent was dashed. She came in and bowed her head. "Of course Mi lady, I can find you the books" She was not a typical slave, she knew how to read and how to write, those were not a part of her training. The piano and other instruments and dancing and massages were though but she was a very learned slave.

She got the books and laughed as she found the cat who meowed sleepily she scratched behind the cats ear and was rewarded with a loud purr.. She piled all the books on the table then stood off to the side to wait to see if she was needed for anything.

"Thank you." Rose muttered as she pulled one of the books closer and flipped it open to what seemed like a random truth, when in fact Rose was simply so used to these books that she could flip to whatever page she needed blindfolded. She read passages and then wrote and then flipped pages. She only needed a couple minutes.

Jaspers had given up on Rose ans decided to investigate Tue newcomer, going over and rubbing himself against her leg with a loud purr, wanting attention.

When Rose finished with her writing she closed the last book and sat back. She always felt so relueved when she finished a good reading. "You can help ne put these books away now." She said, turning. and looking at Jordan over her shoulder. She picked up the couples books she had used and left the others for Jordan. "Right back where you found them if you can."

As she put books away she asked, "Have you gotten a good look around yet? I want you to be familiar with the layout of our land and household."

Feeling the cat rub against her Jewel knelt down and petted the cat. She smiled and continued to pet it. When Rose sat back she stood again waiting for more orders. She waited for the orders then nodded. "Of course" She put the books exactly where she had found them, she was good at remembering things like that.

She then turned to her. "I have seen much Mi lady, the koi pond, the stables, some others, I fear I haven't familiar with all of it but I do learn quickly"

Rose moved to one of the two chairs in the open centre of the room after putting away het books. "I am glad to hear you have seen a bit. You can feed the fish if you like... have you been told what to do with the horses?" She asked leaning back and resting her chin in her palm.

She motioned for Jordan to sit down in the seat across from her. This was usually where she had people sit when she did her readings, it was a very comfortable layout for her... she felt very in control here. "I must say, you have caught my interest. There is some sort of mysterious past in you that intrigues me and I believe puzzles you at times. What can you tell me about the family you were born into? Or, if you don't remember, the first place you worked." she asked getting comfortable. Rose had a way about her that was both soothing and intimidating. A beautiful combination for the tall blonde woman.

She watched her cats out of the corner of her eye. Jaspers and Frigglish had been joined by the runt, Mutiny. He seemed very cautious of the stranger, keeping his one good eye strained on her as he circled around towards Rose. The older cats were making themselves comfortable around the room. Mutiny eventually found his place perched on the arm of Rose's chair. He kept his eye on the stranger but made sure that Rose would be able to pet him, which she did happily.

Nodding with her head down she replied in the same soft voice "Yes, Sir told me, if I may say, Lady, they are beautiful creatures, gentle souls even the feisty one" She watched her motion for her to sit and gasped. "Tis norm for the sla- I mean for one of my...standing to sit on the ground at your feet" She bowed though and took the seat as she requested.

"I caught your interest Mi lady?" She couldn't contain her surprise. Her face darkens as she went on. "My past is a bit of a mystery" She sniffled. "I only remember snapshots" She looked at her hands "Sometimes I remember being snatched while I was playing in the fields, other times I remember my mother selling me, she had no choice though, too many mouths to feed and my father had died"

She licked her lips "As for the first place I worked I was a whipping girl for a rich girl, you know a child misbehaves so they bring in a whipping child to be whipped for what ever they did wrong" She smiled "The child grew tired of me since I never cried out, then it was domestics, but then I was sold as...well you know as soon as I was of age" She rubbed her arms. Looking to the woman waiting for more questions.

She silently wished one of the cats would sit with her, or that she could have one of her own. She mentally yelled at herself. "No you are a nothing and will not ever have anything like that stupid" She nodded to the woman again.

"I have seen a lot of the world, and have had many...experiences" She smiled. "Many of my masters were gentle and kind, and only parted with me when they could mate with their wives again, for that is very common"

"If I ever ask you to sit in that chair I do not want you to consider yourself a slave. You will consider yourself a client. Consider it a bonus of working for the Seer of Light." Rose said as she got herself comfortable. She continued to pet the cat seated on the edge of her arm rest as she let Jordan begin answering all of her questions.

As Jordan finished speaking Rose thought over what she was just told, "None of that s very surprising. People who go through difficulties at young ages surpress it... just remembering small fragments is all most people can make of their childhood anyway. I am no different."

"I will admit I am glad to hear that not every place you have been hass treated you poorly. I am more curious about the family you were born into" Rose said with a shrug. She watched Jaspers as the large black cat made his way over to the two chairs. He glanced up at Mutiny before looking over at Jordan and choosing the non-cat occupied lap to sit on. "I apologize for asking you questions about your past since it is clearly a touchy subject to you. Let me explain to you what it is that I do.

"As a seer I was born with the ability to see events and paths paved by our futures. Details are difficult for me to see but I would be able to tell you where you should be in the years to come... where you will die... how well you will live... disasters or blessings that come to someone... Those are the kinds of things I tend to see when I sit one on one with a person. But to be able to see the future I need to at least understand the past, that is why I am so curious about you." She finished her explanation, "I'm sure I will have a very long time to figure out where you will go... but I will be very intrigued by you until I know."

She let out a long sigh, closing her eyes for a moment and taking that moment to reflect over what Jordan had told her. "Also, never see this as a one sided interview... you can ask me whatever you like whenever you like... about my own past... my abilities... my life... how I feel about the weather. Interaction with you is  very important to me... the nuances of speech are another driving point in figuring people out."

((This is my first time actually on a computer in a long time. So I'm assuming this post is less filled with typos than all my others haha.))

Nodding Jordan licked her lips "I am sorry it is hard not to see myself as a slave for that is what I have been since a child" She smiled and leaned back "I do admit I do remember smells more then anything" She swallowed "The smells of the honeysuckle growing in the fields in the house" She paused "And of the cooking bread in our hut" She sighed "If my father did die my mother would sell me off, she had no dowery for me, and it would be a better life then that of a nun which would be my only choice, I doubt mother knew where I was going, the people, I remember wanted a child, they claimed their child had died, I found that lie out very quickly"

She gasped then smiled as the cat laid on her lip she petted him and seemed to relax completely. Her face relaxed and she seemed to be more at ease. "Thank you Jaspers for chosing me" She then looked to Rose. "I am sorry I am not used to really talking to my owners, or bosses that much so I don't really have questions but you seem very interesting I am afraid that there isn't much in my future, more owners then a most likely painful death" She frowned "but I very happy to be here for as long as I am needed"

The only escape from her life was to be freed and that scared her, she had no means least as a slave she was protected to some degree

“Yes, smells, that is something most people remember of their childhood. Unfortunately not all smells are pleasant, you are lucky in that sense. Some poor souls only remember the smell of death or of copious amounts of alcohol… or both. Such things do cause suppression of memories.” She mused to herself. Her gaze drifted for a moment to the cat purring away on the lap of the girl sitting across from her. And then her eyes drifted shut.

A sigh emanated from deep in her chest, visibly moving her entire form. “You cannot know your own future for certain. I cannot know a single future for certain. I would like to say that you will be pleasantly surprised by the life you are intended to lead but I don’t know much of it, to be honest.” Her eyes opened slowly moving to rest on a shelf filled to the brim with books, “Though I would like you to tell me know whether or not you want to know details as I learn them. For some it is very hard to hear the things that I have to say. Some dear friends, like our Prince John, do not want to know their own personal future. I will respect that if you so wish it.”

She stood and waved a hand dismissively. “No, never mind that. If you wouldn’t mind could you draw me a bath? There is a basin in my quarters upstairs. I need to talk to James for a moment. When you’re done with mine you should see if ‘Sir Strider’ needs anything.” She straightened out her clothing before walking out of the large library. She had a lingering feeling that she was making this young woman quite nervous by putting her out of her comfort zone like this. She was sure that this action was for the best.

Jordan licked her lips and cocked her head to the side. There were other smells too but she only reacted to those. She shuddered thinking of the smell of sweat or blood, and a few others. She looked at her and nodded "You are right Mi-lady" She bit her lip this time and then she watched the woman's eyes closed and took that moment to hug the cat still on her lap. It was really the first time she had shown anything but tension.

Her eyes shot up as she sighed. Her eyes flickered in fear for a moment before she relaxed slightly. She eyed the woman she smiled. She wished that she could be right in what she was saying but her life was bleak unless something changed but nothing did. Soon her new masters would tire of her and she would be sold again but she would never disagree with a master so she nodded.

She was about to agree with her when she asked for a bath she scooped the cat up and then lightly put the cat down and curtsied to her. "As you wish" She drew her bath and reported back that it was ready for her with towels. Then bowed again and went searching for Sir Strider.

When she found him she went into the slave postion her back straight her legs spread wide her hands on her thighs then softly spoke. "Are in need of me Sire?"

When Rose was told that her bath was ready she moved out from between the shelves of books and thanked the young woman for fixing it for her. She smiled fondly before moving back into the aisles to finish putting books back in their appropriate spot, while attempting to find herself something to bring to bed with her. She was well aware of how Jordan felt about herself but Rose would try her hardest to change the mindset of the slave girl. No one should think so poorly of themselves when they have no understanding of what it is they could one day accomplish.

Finished in the library she headed back up to her quarters and ran her jeweled fingers through the warm water. She smiled to herself before stripping herself down and letting herself relax in the water. Using soaps that she had been given by Lady Maryam. She had a feeling she would have to share all of these thoughts on her new slave girl the next time Lady Maryam was there. She was the only person with whom Rose felt she could be completely open. Which was, she guessed, a real shame.

Dave was walking down the hallway. He had a piece of cloth to his sweaty brow. He had shed a lot of layers and was in a thin tunic now. He had a large sword in one hand, holding it limply at his side. Training had been long and hard. Dave was always one to push himself. Today he had simply been stupid. “Is Rose busy? I may have cut myself a little.” He moved the cloth from his brow and revealed a small bleeding gash just above his eyebrow. As soon as the cloth was moved red liquid blossomed on his skin and trailed down to his eye. He put the cloth back in place. “She usually fixes my wounds… unless you can do it…”
