says to ALL: -His children were in the care of their nurse, and of their mother, even though she now wore His steel as I did. That thought brought a smile to my lips, amused even as the words fluttered through my mind. There was nothing comparable to Her situation, and though she was a slave, I had a hard time seeing Her as anything but my Mistress. She was chained in the house though, and not able to do things like go to the market. His kitchen slave did that many of the days, and I had gone a time or two, though not recently.
There were at least two rooms of His house that were piled up with things that He had brought back from Port Kar on His last trip there. I tried not to think about the box full of gifts that He had brought back to me, or the smile that had curved His lips when He watched me delight in them. The green silks were still folded inside, and I still hoped that before He sold me that He would allow me to wear them and show Him the dance that I had practiced the day before... - I shook my head softly and rose, pushing the standing mirror to face the wall. I would not think about that day

says to ALL: -Most of the chests, stacks of rolled furs and other bundles, wrapped some of them in oiled paper, some in rawhide to keep them from the sea air, were thrown willi-nilli into one of the two unoccupied rooms in the house. I hadn't explored much of them, or unpacked, simply because I'd been occupied with other thoughts. The idea of keeping busy, of filling my hands and my head with tasks that were mundane, if necessary was appealing. At least once I was done, if He did find someone willing to pay His price for me... At least His household would be ordered for Him

says to ALL: -I looked at the piles of things, spilling about the room, chests open in some spots, as though things have been rifled though, looked for. Perhaps some of the things had been taken to trade in the Market, I thought. That was what this was for, after all. One of the sailors from His ship, one that stayed during the stormy season, when most of the others went home to their families, he had taken much of the contents of the other room to the market to trade, and there was meat stocked, and a few animals as well. I grinned softly, thinking of the little vulo pen that had been built, for it reminded me of the Fort and gathering eggs with my friend nadi. I had gathered and she had stood guard with a stick for the bad-tempered rooster. Nadi had laughed and joked that it was not the kind of flogging that she ever wanted.

says to ALL: -I stood there and looked at the room, so full of things, piled to the ceiling and wondered for a moment at the sheer size of the task. It was daunting to say the least, for it was not a small room. It seemed, at first glance, to be an insurmountable task, and one that I was not up to. I shook my head with a smile and swept my dark curls into my hands, carefully twisting and twining them about into a knot and thrusting one of the jeweled pins He and brought me through the mass.
It was not unlike my own situation, I thought to myself as I stepped inside the room. It seemed like a hopeless, impossible task that would never be finished. I thought of the witch in the glass, of her cold smile, her chilled eyes and pale skin. I could be hard, like she was, I thought to myself. Hard, and filled with resolve. There was only one thing to do, and that was to begin. Just... begin.

says to ALL: -the boxes to the sides were ignored for the moment, in favor of the paper wrapped packages. These were beginning to come apart in places and it appeared as though one or two had been nibbled on by some urt. I did hope that it had taken place on board His ship, and that the creatures were not lurking among the hidden corners of the goods. I had taken a blade from the kitchen and the sharp edge of the steel sliced through the twine that held the paper in place.
It was a surprise when the paper was peeled away. I laughed with delight as the package was unwrapped. Books. It made me smile for reasons that I could not explain. There were shelves built into the walls in the main room of the house and after carefully wiping each of the leather bound spines and flipping through the first of the stack, I found myself fascinated with some of His choices. There were several about shipbuilding, which was expected, and then some about architecture, which were not. I recognized some of these books. I had possessed some of the very same ones before, and in fact had some of them with me in the caravan... I stopped for a moment with a slight furrowing of my forehead, flipping to specific pages in the books and looking at my own writing. He'd taken these things that night, too. From the caravan.

says to ALL: - the urge was strong there to sit and look through one after the other of the books, but the daunting mass of.. things... in the room would not sort itself out, as much as I would have liked for that to happen. One by one the books were set upon the shelves there, build cleverly into the wall of the room. It occurred to me that it was a talented builder who had designed the rooms of this place. I wondered some of the talents of the Captain before... had He always been a pirate? The smile was back as I set the third of the books on shipbuilding into the shelf. Not a pirate, I chuckled softly to myself, but a Privateer.

says to ALL: -I took the time to set a flame to the wick of another lamp in the room, then moved it to the far corner, illuminating from the outside in, it appeared. I was still cautious of the packages that had been damaged by tiny rodent teeth, for I did not wish to open up a nest of the little beasts, at least not in the house. If I should find one, I told myself,I would make quick work of it with the kitchen knife, but in truth, the whiskered beady eyed little creatures would send me screaming from the room.
The steel of the blade sliced through the next twine and was unwrapped again. I tipped my head to the side and examined the contents of this one. It and several of the others appeared to be elaborately painted and enameled serving trays. The very eclectic collection of things in the room was beginning to amuse me to no end. I wondered if He had gone through the Port and chosen these things, or if they had been things that He had pirated.. ummm.. privateered from another ship

says to ALL: - I worked my way through all of the oiled paper packages without so much as a single urt scampering out from them. I had not seen the gianis around my Master's house, but having them about here and there would keep the population of the vermin in check. I had not come across any insects either, and was impressed by how well the packages had been wrapped. Either my Master's crew, or the ones that they had taken the things from had taken great care that nothing be damaged. There were dishes, serving pieces, some small sculptures, art pieces and quite a few more books. I had cleared out a single corner of the room, but it was feeling like an accomplishment. I had a project for the next few days, in any case.

says to ALL: - there was quite a stack of the oiled paper that had wrapped many of the things, along with some of the rawhide packages. I did wonder what I was to do with these things. All of it could be reused, I was certain, but the question of where to store the things was one that would take a bit of thought to answer.
Some of the paper that had been shredded by the little beasts for nests would not be salvageable, and the twine that I had cut also would be gathered up and tossed out. I thought that perhaps the best way to dispose of it would be to toss it into the fire, though I did not wish to burn it inside the house. The paper was stained and I was not certain if it would burn without smoking. The prospect of His anger should I fill the house with smoke was not a desirable one and so I carefully bundled up the mess, wrapping the paper about the rather large mass of twine and twisting, hoping that it would stay together for a moment

says to ALL: - I made my way with the rather large bundle of paper, paper scraps and twine to the bonfire area that was central to the City. The large fire pit was ringed with stones, and a blaze was already crackling merrily within the ring. I was in no particular hurry, and so instead of tossing the whole thing in, I made a game of playing with the flames, so fascinated by the dazzling red and gold colors as bit by bit I fed in the scraps of twine and shreds of paper
