says to ~ His Golden Spice ~ : Pain. Sharp and piercing caused me to gasp and loudly. It wasn't one of those mewling whines. Absolutely not!!

"AIIEEEEEE"

And then the smell hit me. It was a full assualt on my senses that just increased the pain and, somehow, seemed to make it worse. I didn't dare move. I didn't even dare to try and open my eyes. I kept them shut. And tightly. Breathing always seemed to help. So I took a small breath. Then another. Slow and deep and even. I sighed and tried to sit up and heard the clanking of metal against metal. Such a beautiful song to some!!! And I was no different. I opened one eye, and then it was only a slit. I groaned. And moaned. I turned my head and saw ... I didn't know what I saw. But something was different. Very different.

I sat upright then. Not slow. But bolted. My hands flew to my neck and I felt the collar. I tried to recall what had happened ... and then the memory of the those scales and the fetid breath of the Tharlarion and then the grip around my waist and the air leaving my lungs ...

Apparently, I was not longer a part of the caravan. Which begged the question ... where was I?

says to Absolute Obedience Enya: The tall bond wrinkled her nose at the gruel. She'd been preparing these two bowls fresh every day since her Jarl had dragged in the kajira. Today she had also brewed up some willow tea, thinking that when she woke, it could be painful---and not just for the curvaceous bondmaid! What he would want with a silky she didn't know but she would do her duty and make sure the girl was cared for the way he wished. She was curious about her, just as she was still curious about the thrall. She wondered if he'd captured that larl yet. He was kind of nice on the eyes and she wasn't going to refuse a nice sight! Blue eyes sparkled as she laughed to herself and lifted the bowls from the counter, stacking the larger bowl of water on top of the tea bowl, in Jarl's longhouse; one with water and one with gruel, just like she'd done for the past two days. But the girl had not been awake. Ljuva had checked her for blood, knowing that Jarl can be a bit rambunctious at times, plus he was used to a good, sturdy, well-curved bond!!

Stepping out of the house, her long, sexy and strong legs carried her across the grounds to the barn where the new beast was being kept. She heard the rattle of the chain and smiled because that meant the creature was finally awake. Walking into the barn and to the place where the girl was kept, she stayed at chain's length away just in case. She looked at you and smiled, her hands full.

You are awake! Jarl will be happy he didn't kill you.

says to ~ His Golden Spice ~ : "Kill me?" There was surprise in my voice. And then, because I couldn't help it. And because I was nervous. And because I didn't want to start off on the wrong foot as I'd seen so many other slaves do, I chuckled and rubbed the side of my iron-collared neck and then the chuckle grew and I laughed. It was a short laugh, but a laugh all the same. I hadn't looked in the direction of the voice. At least not yet, but when I did, I was sure my jaw dropped.

"No," I managed, looking at you fully and smiled, and then released a very soft, and subtle sigh. "I don't think I'm on Genesian Road anymore ..." I began, noticing that your hands were full, I moved to a kneel but that was it. I didn't test the length of the chain. At least not yet. "Can I help with that?" I asked, pointing to that full load you had.

says to Absolute ObedienceEnya: She stood there all tall and bondish and beautiful as she looked at you curiously when you laughed. She wasn't sure what you found funny but she was glad that you weren't screaming and fighting the chain and collar. She'd have had to bang your head again with a stick or something! And then she smiled at you when you knelt. You were a pretty little thing for a silky, although she wasn't sure that's what you were on closer inspection. Then her own warm laughter at remembering her hands were full.

These are for you. Her long, strong legs bent to a crouch and she set them on the floor of the barn, first the gruel, then the water, and then the still steaming willow tea. She pushed them toward you.

You should drink the small bowl first. It is willow tea and help with any pain you might have. Then as she crouched there, not kneeling, she canted her head curiously at you. Blonde hair spilling down over her shoulders. It was then she realized she'd forgotten the kirtle.

You are in the northern village of Hraesvelgr now.

says to ~ His Golden Spice ~ : A pale Thassa gaze watched you. Every move you made. I saw the look I had been given when I had laughed. Not that there was humor in the situation, but ... there was humor there. And, I had been, after all, fair game. Hadn't I? "These are for you." I heard you say and then you laughed too. In spite of the situation, because it was what it was, I laughed too. And watched as you moved. And it was with grace and elegance. I had heard stories that bonds were often tall and gangly. Then again, I don't think whomever was telling those kind of stories was looking at, or had prbably never seen, such beauty as I was.

"Thank you," I said, and picked up the small bowl, tilting my head when told me where I was. Nothern village. I frrowned, asking, "Where is ..." I coughed, not wanting to butcher the pronouncation, "this Hrae... place?" I took a sip from the small bowl and muttered, "thank you..."

says to Absolute ObedienceEnya: She had watched you pretty closely, saw how you moved, the look in your eyes and decided you weren't going to try and strangle her with that chain or anything. It was then that she moved from her crouching position to her fine ass, making sure her kirtle was under her because she did not like sitting in the straw! Her full, heavy breasts pressed against the fabric of her kirtle, or maybe it was the kirtle caressing her breasts?, either way, it was happening. A slow lick of her lips and she grinned as you tried to pronounce Hraesvelgr.

HRAYS-vel-grr. We are north. Torvaldsland. Thassa isn't far. Where are you from? You don't seem like a city silky to me.

The bond was intelligent but she was 100% trusting of her Jarl. It didn't matter where she was as long as she was with him so the geography of Hraesvelgr wasn't all that important to her. She was also blunt, especially so when her Jarl wasn't around. She had no problem asking questions to find out what she wanted to know.

says to ~ His Golden Spice ~ : I watched every move you made. I watched the way you walked. The way you knelt. The way you moved to allow the fabric of the clothing you were wearing as a buffer between your flesh and the stracthniess of the straw that littered the floor upon which I knelt. I even watched your lips as you pronounced the village. And I repeated it.

HRAYS-vel-grr. North. Torvaldsland.

I tilted my head and looked at you again. "I'm from ... " I paused and felt my shoulders slump. Indeed, where was I from? A shoulder lifted in a half-shrug and a frown was briefly seen as it flew across my features. "I was on a ship. It took to port in Bazi. And then we were in a caravan. On Genesian Road. Do you know Genesian Road?" I asked, looking at you intently. I smiled, took another sip from the small bowl and replied,

I was born in Thentis. I know my father, from what I was told, is of the Entertainer's and my mother a slave...

As I lifted the small bowl to sip again, I smiled.

says to Absolute ObedienceEnya: She listened to you intently, her brilliant blue eyes shining. Her fingers, long and tapering, toyed with the kirtle that was draped over her thighs and between her crossed legs, knees bent and feet tucked. There was no need to be all flirtatious with you but there were some things that were just natural or had been nurtured in her through the years. Like the straight back and her shoulders back a bit. A smile graced her lips and made her eyes sparkle when you pronounced Hraesvelgr correctly! She nodded approval when you did. You spoke of Bazi and Genesian Road and Thentis. She had heard of these places but had never been to any of them.

Thentis. That's the city of tarns, yes? I have never been to the places you speak of. I am born of the north and only been as far south as Torcadino and the slave markets there. That is where I was won at auction by Jarl.

Her smile grew at the mention of him. She might even have squirmed a little! Then she looked you over again and slowly pushed to her feet, again graceful and fluid as she rose tall over you. She wrinkled her nose and brushed straw from her kirtle and legs.

I am going to fetch a bucket of water and cloth for you to wash and get the kirtle I forgot to bring you. Eat your gruel. Jarl will beat me if you don't!

Her eyes twinkled. He really wouldn't, at least she didn't think he would! Then she turned and moved out of the barn, long legs carrying her quickly to the house to get the kirtle then the well to get the bucket of water.

says to ~ His Golden Spice ~ : I was ... in awe of you. Of your grace and elegance. Of your beauty. Of how poised you were. How .. affable you were. I wondered now if those that had spoken of the North had acctually been here. Had actually invovled themselves or interacted with anyone from the North, because it was quite apparent to me, that they had been blowing smoke up my ...

"Yes," I replied, "Thentis is the City of Tarns. But is also known for their blackwine beans. It's beautiful in Thentis." I licked my own lips to swipe the remnants of the willow tea and mimicked the nod you had given me in response to my attempt in pronouncing the name of my home? New home? That was all well and good, but whether or not I remained was not up to me. I liked you, in spite of not knowing your name.

"Unless the Jarl decides to change my name," I began, doing everything I could to not giggle when your smile broadened ... did it also get brighter(?) ... only to unfoled from your own position and stand tall and proud over me ... "I am called Enya." I set the bowl of willow tea aside, bending and leaning to gather the bowl of gruel, "Thank you," I said to your retreating back, wrinkling my nose as the aroma of the gruel assailed my nostrils.

says to Absolute ObedienceEnya: The kirtle had been setting on the bench by the table in the house. Snatching it up and draping it over her arm, she walked out, grabbing a clean rep cloth off the shelf as she did. Then to the well with a clean bucket and she drew water. She was strong and had no trouble with the winding of the handle to get the heavy water bucket up. It would be cool....verr balls, who was she kidding? It would be cold!! But it would work for now until Jarl allowed you to go to the warm springs to bathe. Back in the barn now, she set the bucket down, along with the cloth draped over the rim, then she set the gray kirtle neatly on the straw as she once again lowered herself to sit upon the floor, knees bent in a cross-legged position.

There. Give yourself a good scrubbing. That will make my Jarl happy. He likes clean bonds and slaves. He may or may not change your name. She had heard you as she'd walked out of the barn before. He has gifted me with the name Ljuva. Enya is a pretty name. Does it have a meaning?

She would watch you eat that gruel. But she wouldn't be so mean to make you lick the bowl clean---that would all depend on how hungry you were.

says to ~ His Golden Spice ~ : As you returned and responded I smiled, answering,

"I believe the name means 'fire', a dirty shoulder lifted in a casual shrug as I ate the gruel. It wasn't that I was hungry, more than what I thought I would be and proceeded to clean that bowl you had given me, licking the sides to ensure that no morsel escaped. Gruel wasn't exactly a favorite of mine, but ...

Setting the now empty bowl aside, I rose, the weight of the collar bringing a smile to my lips as an arm lifted to allow slender fingers to light skim over the cold surface. I only had to take a step to reach the bucket and as I did, I removed the dirty and tattred red silk, bending to retrieve the cloth and dip it into the cold water of the bucket. As soon as that cold instrument touch my flesh I shivered, turning to look at you over a shoulder, "Cold!!" I said. making quick work of the wet cloth over my skin, shivering the entire time.

As I pulled the kirtle over my head, I said, "Liu.." I hesitated, recalling how you pronounced the name of the Village and tried again, "Li ... Li ... Liu ..." Clearing my throat as fingers smothed over the kirtle, "Ljuva. That's pretty, too... Does your nane have a meaning?"

says to Absolute ObedienceEnya: She watched you finish up the gruel and couldn't help but wrinkle her nose. She was so glad she didn't have to eat it very often and that Jarl was good enough to allow her some of his leftovers. A nod to the meaning of your name and smiled, looking at you. She could see where there was a low burning fire inside you, perhaps. Then she laughed as you started to wash and realized how cold that bucket of water was!

When Jarl allows it, we will give you a proper wash at the warm springs. Then she smiled as you attempted her name. It had taken hearing it from her owner's lips several times for her to get it just right. joo-VA the j is really soft, almost like a y. My Jarl told me it means lovely and pleasant.

Then she rose from her sitting to stand and gather the bowls except for the water bowl and smiled. She pointed to the stalls and the fresh grasses and straw as well as the tools needed to clean and refresh them.

I need to go prepare Jarl's evening meal. Until he says otherwise, make yourself comfortable here. And useful. The stalls need to be mucked out. Do not leave the farm holdings, though. Jarl has sleen and I would hate for you to become sleen snacks! Then she would smile with shimmering blue eyes,turn on her long legs and walk out of the barn, carrying the bowls in one hand and the bucket and cloth in the other. Before she disappeared into the house, she would dump the water of the bucket. ((L/p))

A Capture on Genesian Road

(07/05/20 10:52 am) Absolute Obedience Enya -=Genesian Road=- Is traveling along the Genesian Road connecting Brundisium and other coastal cities with the south says to ALL: I am forever amazed, and rendered speechless which in and of itself is a bargain for anybody who really knows me. But, alas!!! There aren't very many who can honestly say that. Not that I'm a difficult slave. Nor am I the type of slave that balks because I do not like the kiss of the whip upon the flesh of this back. It stings and though the welts are visible for days, those same welts create when itchy fabric comes into contact with it. I've had my share and I do my best to avoid being whipped. Or cuffed upside the head. Then again, the majority of the whippings were purely educational purposes only. When a slave does something wrong, punishment soon follows and the type of punishment is at the sole discretion of a slave's owner. Personal or City owned or even if the slave is being put through her paces at a Slaver's House. Indeed... sometimes lessons need to be learned the hard way. These lessons aren't always as difficult as they are challenging. I've always enjoyed challenges and look at them as pieces of a puzzle that just has to be solved. (07/05/20 11:04 am) Absolute Obedience Enya -=Genesian Road=- Is traveling along the Genesian Road connecting Brundisium and other coastal cities with the south says to ALL: These proclamations are, of course, based on my own experiences. There are a few scars that stripe my back and are quite visible when you know what you're looking for. Whip me once, shame on me, but whip me twice for the same thing then it's ALL on me. It usually is regardless, but the point is, is that slavery isn't for everybody. That pitiful creature that kept whining about what to do now? I don't see her as slave material. But, what do I know? I don't have an eye for slave flesh. Except my own and I will do whatever I can to ensure that my flesh remains intact unless told otherwise. I've always been owned by an Inn or a Tavern. Once I was even part of a Camp. That didn't last very long and within 4 hand I had been sold. Back to the beginning some would have told me. But it's not going back to the beginning at all. My future owner just hasn't discovered me. Yet.

I had some bussines inland and thusly had brought my high tharlarion with me as it was mutch faster then walking. While the crew would resply fresh water and suplies i had made the short tripp inland to meet an old friend of mine that had agreeded to serve as a "mail office" between myself and my oldest son that was the commander of a unite of mercenarys. After some proper man hugs- and some paga letters were exhanged and i was on my way back for my ship. Taking a shorter route over some knolls rather then following the small dirt road out to the main coastal road i would halt on my vantage point as a spotted a small caravan. I was some 400 yards away so might not be noticed from the road unless someone were on alert and scanned the knols and surrounding terrain. I had not been on the hunt but i was a man of Gor and more so a Torvaldslander. hmmm......i would squint...then grunt and pull out my builders glass to get a good look of the small caravan moving on the road down below. And should anyone down there have a buildersglas and spy back on me they would see a man and beast that looked something like this I was mounted atop of my high tharlarion Scar, the reins held with calm to the left hand*1*. My frame was that off 6´4. 230lbs. I was dressed in a leather tunic with a raven sewn into the chest peace over the heart. A leather cloak with the hood up tho with the helmet under it the hood held a somewhat triangular shape. Dark brown leathers and my feet and legs covered by high tharlarion rider boots. A northern helmet, with chainmail covering the neck and with the nose guard in the down position covered my head*2*.A 7 foot spear to my right hand held aprox mid haft with the tip skyward.*3* And a 3 foot round wooden center gripped Torvaldslands shield reenforced with steel band and a center steel boss held was held to my back with a thick leather strapp, it was painted with my personal crest of a crossed gladius with a northern battle axe in a circle in a background that was devided with a deep red to the left side and a deep blue to the right side.*4* Over my left shoulder the handel of a 3 foot long sword could be seen. The cloak having been pulled aside to uncover that of my left shoulder to enabel a draw of the blade that was .36 inches total length. 30 inch blade. 4 inch cross guard, 6 inch handel with a hammer shapped pommel.*5* To my right hip i held a quiver of 10 bolts for the cavalry crossbow.*6*. To the right side of the saddel there could be seen a cavalry crossbow It was positioned in sutch a manner it could easily be drawn by the right hand and with my right boot to the stearup used to drawback and make the weapon ready to fire another bolt.*7* The spear was resting across my lap while i held the buildersglas with my left hand to get a good look at the road and my current object of interest.

I was, in my own way, anxious to reach our destination and see what the future might hold for a girl like me. I didn't dwell on such things as that. I was curious more than anything and I knew that whatever happened was meant to be. I never counted on anything being the same or remaining the same because nothing remained the same. Changes took place all the time. Most didn't see it or didn't want to see it. But me? I wasn't better than any slave. I was merely being me and who I was and not just who I was but what I was, too. I sighed and peeked out the back of the wagon. I almost wanted to get out and walk along side the thing ... but just at that moment, I heard cries for the caravan to stop. I honestly think that this was another deterrent in reaching our destination sooner rather than later... However, because the wagon was beginning to slow and because it was time for the noon meal to be prepared and served ... I, as well as three other girls and two thralls, were unshackled and told that we were to begin the meal preparations ... I just grinned. Didn't have to beg to be let out of the wagon and I'd be able to stretch my legs and tease some of the guards in the process ...

But as the slaves were let out of the 2nd wagon and started to sett up a simpel camp site off the road to the east i would take my time to counte you all cuz yes i did know how to counte sens mother had been a scribe from Ar- murmering to myself- 1..2..3...4 kajiras... moste of them seemed rather plain but then there was you.....There was a Slaver and a young man-perhaps his son or apprentice... And two other men the drivers of the two wagon. and the two thralls....hmmm......I considered my options...i wasnt really looking to kill anyone this day but you were pretty so what to do...what to do......But then as i saw you breaking away a bitt from the rest of them and go behind some bushes probably to gather fire wood or perhaps for a nature call- eather way you were alone- away from the group and so with a sly sleen grin i would sett away the builders glass to the saddel bag and bring my spear down along the tharlarions right flank pointing forward. I gave a low sharp whistel and the Tharlarion would start to walke slowly sideways down the knoll towards the area were you were at. My hope was that you all were not paying to close attention to notice the dust nor myself as i made my way down the side..... (07/05/20 11:49 am) Absolute Obedience Enya -=Genesian Road=- Is traveling along the Genesian Road connecting Brundisium and other coastal cities with the south says to ~ Warrior Of The North : FREE!!!! I almost laughed at the thought, but then I sobered because I was free. Freeer than most women ever imagined to be. I had been tasked to gather wood and other debris to start a fire. I was given a sack in case there were bosk chips missed or left or recently dropped. I wrinkled my nose and rolled my eyes, recalling the time I had accidentally stepped into some of these ... chips ... then I began to giggle. And the giggles turned to laughter and soon I was in a fit. Here I was, in the middle of nowhere ... really, I was somewhere between Bazi and Brundisium collecting items for a fire and recalling a time when I stepped into a mess .. I wasn't paying attention to where I was going nor to how far I had traveled from the "safety" of the wagons... Another quick glance over my shoulder said I was still within seeing distance of the small caravan ... I shrugged a shoulder. Turned my back on the caravan and continued to gather items needed...

I grunted gave a sharp tug of the reins with my left hand to straighten up the beast and then wacked his right flank with the butt end of the spear and he came down the side like shoot out of a canon with a leap and a THUD he landed on even ground and sett off towards you like its ass was on fire with big long bounding stepps -this when in a larger group of the high tharlarions in full run would at times have a similar sound to thunder. The distance between us was shortened very fast as i moved the reins over to my right hand to have my left hand free while i hunched forward over the neck of my tharlarion. If she was dazed and got in a bitt of panic might not even see the man atop of the beast and simply the rather lage meat eating lizard comming at her in a full sprint.....

Some might even want to call Gor cruel. Hrump! No one ever menions the beauty found here. Or the wonders of Gor. I gave a mental shrug, knowing that most are usually swept up in what's taking place with them or around them. As a slave, I didn't have to worry about that. Did I? Of course not!! THUD!!! I was leaning to scoop some dried bosk chips into the sack I had been given when I heard the noise. And rather than bring my body upright to look, I turned my head in that direction expecting to see ... what I didn't know. But all I could see was a cloud of dust. And then I heard a rumbling sound. Deep and vibrating. I looked down at the ground, thinking it was going to leap up and meet my face half-way but it didn't. It was a pale Thassa gaze that saw an enormous dark shadow that seemed to be rising out of that pile of dust and moving. Fast. It was moving very fast. I felt my jaw drop. But could I move? No, because my mind was still trying to decipher if that huge, dark shadow that was still shrouded in that dust, was real or not. The dust was clearing. And the shadow loomed. The shadow was moving. And it was moving toward me. I was unable to move. My body wasn't listening to any command I was giving it either! The dust was clearing. The dust was clearing!!!! THE DUST WAS CLEARING!!! Racing toward me was a behemoth of a beast. And astride this beast, high perched in the saddle of the Tharlarion was a man that appeared to be larger than the Tharlarion!!! I moved then. Yes I did. I moved in the direction in which my feet were facing and I didn't stop. I opened my mouth and let out a screech, that, I'm sure, could be heard all the way back in Bazi!!! But could I look away to see where I was going? No. I could not. I wasn't making as fast as progress as that beast was!!!

Her scream did catch the attention of the Slaver and the other peopel scattered around the make shift camp. First they saw her run across the road towards the sea. And then with a might leap the muscular beast leap atop of the road and they would hardly catch a glimps of my dark brown cloths in a road runner similar fassion befor she whent down the left side of the road and the tharlarion after and we were out of sight from the camp. With a small sharp whistel ones the tharlarion was snapping at her heels i would have it adjust with a diagonal stepp forward and to its right as i leaned down and to my left with my thick powerfull tree trunk arm bent and then she feelt something akin to the oar of a serpentship hit her across her shoulder blades and a paw would then secure itself to her center torso as she was HEAVED UP -off the ground as i then leaned to my right and pulled her Up and over and the wind knocked out of her as you were sett belly down across the thick next of the High Tharlarion as i layed the weight and force of my left arm across her back while a vice like paw closed in a iron gripp to her neck so she would not slipp and dropp on her head-the fall would moste likely at this speed have killed her one way or the other as two short sharp whistels would have the Lizard named Scar due to the long nasty scar running down tween its eyes from the right tempel and down to head for the coste line and the port where my ship was .

But, from my experience, there is always a first time for everything. And this, of course, was no exception. I screeched again, thinking that it wasn't doing any good, plus I believed that I was too far from where the caravan stopped to be heard above the thundering that was right on my heels. I dared not look over my shoulder. I dared not stop, either. I was already gasping for breath and the sack I had been given to collect bosk chips was still held tightly and firmly between my fingers. I grinned because I lifted my arm as high as I could, thinking that if one of the guards from the caravan could see the sack they would know where I was and come after me. Is there such a thing as luck on Gor? Because if there was, I hadn't seen hide nor hair of it. Which meant that luck didn't exist or was nothing more than a figment of the imagination. I had to know where the thing was!!! Yet, I still didn't dare turn to look fearing that to do so would cause me to misstep and fall. Or stumble. Or get trampled on. I had to know though!! So, I turned my head and all I saw were grey and green colors. I wrinkled my nose again because of the odor that engulfed me. The combination of the dust and the smell of the beasts and, I'm sure, the aroma of my own fear that mingled with those other flavors were soon put out of my mind because I felt my body plunging forward. My eyes widened. My feet left the ground, and then I was gasping for air. Again. And as my mouth opened and closed, similar to a fish out of water, I felt as if I were being squeezed and that I would be making a trip to the City of Dust ... the last thing I do remember, were my eyes closing ...

I had ones upon a time been there commander. Right here and now i simply keept her like that belly down across the thick powerfull neck of the High Tharlarion with my left arm keeping her secure in this position. The beast was keept in a full run right up untill we reatched the small Port only then would i slow down and as the clicking of metal shoed claws tapped on the rounded stones of the ports streets. Only then would i relax some. I would seat myself in my usual manner of straight back. Head held high and the spear held at my right side with the speartip for the sky. Making our way down for the docks my crew was ready some of the men loitering on the docks talking and laughing as they spotted me- THERE HE IS! They would shout and then point- LOOK- He got us a gift! The men would laugh- Whatcha got there Captain??? As i halted and slided you down into the awaiting arms of two Torvie men that even with there size were rather gentel as they captured her by the legs and arms and sett her to her feet and then held her-more so to keep her steady then so she would not run away. I took a moment to look down at her dust covered self.- she had looked pretty enough from afar but now not so mutch- And what WAS That smell?!? she smelled like bosk dung- The men would wrinkel there nose and waft a hand befor there faces- WHATCHA DO WITH HER Captain? roll her in bosk shit??? - Dontcha know he likes em smelly -would the skinny looking fella simply known as nose the knife say sitting on a crate picking at his nails with one of his manny knifes- and the men laughed anew.
