THE KIDNAPPING OF SHAYLA
 
 

PORT VICTORIA

After the renovation of the building, Shayla had wanted to furnish everything according to her tastes, personalizing it, I limited myself to indulging her even though she was of few words, meanwhile another message of threats was sent to us at the Oasis by a passing merchant.
 

   Now I'm sitting here waiting for some news to help me find it. maybe she will settle here for a while .. let's see

 

   As usual, the brother did not want to resign himself to the loss of his pupil Pysichian as well as his sister, Monica meanwhile her companion too with the new administrator Sir ray, whom I had met in Cartassa as the niece of Lady Safina, they let me know that only for the fact that Shayla had followed me to the oasis without my having forced her, indeed she often said that they forced her to stay in the city and that soon she would go as a companion to a warrior friend of her brother.
   I certainly did not worry about a Doctor who threatened me in my life I have known many people some good and many bad so one more did not count.
     While we were at the Oasis I realized that she was not happy, she missed her brother and he missed his life as an apprentice Pysichian, I saw her sadness in her eyes, but by now she was with me and said she would follow me all the way. 'hell.
 

   One day we received an invitation from a big city called Port Victoria, a city not very far from Thentis, where Shayla lived with her brother and where I had worked as a magistrate and had a class for Scribe apprentices, so I decided to face a new long travel to reach the vosk river, then go up the Olni river to Victoria.
     After a relatively peaceful journey, we only spent some time in the Gulf of Thassa, then we went up the Vosk river with tranquility pushed by the west wind.
   We reached the port one late afternoon we got ready and went down to the quay with some trusted guards, we arrived in the port square where there is a large and elegant Inn, many people crowded the quay at that hour, many tables were occupied, we sat down at a corner where the cool wind reached us, sitting waiting to be served, I realized that I had forgotten my bag with the plates, and cooper, so I told Shayla to expect I would get on the ship and be back as soon as possible.
  

  On the deck of the ship a merchant was waiting for me for some business, after having listened to him I agreed on what to do, and took my bag I returned to the dock, but to my amazement I saw the empty table and the guards intent on arguing with the commander of the city, I asked Shayla then but no one had noticed her and no one had seen anything.
    I began the search through the streets of the old city, then went up to the palaces of the Caste to the homes of the lords, but nothing
    I spent the night on the pier waiting for some news from the guards but nothing, and I'm still here in the city hoping for her return, now the chances are few and a doubt assails me, maybe the brother who knew of our arrival had come to kidnap her and take it away with you.
 I sent a message to her brother saying that Shayla had disappeared and since he was her protector it was her job to find her, but no answer has arrived.

SHAYLA.....ESCAPES FROM THENTIS

After the departure of Bryjana, for her adventure in the mines in search of Opals, I decided to leave the Oasis, with my ship I reached the port of ShipRock in the province of Shendi, and from there I would continue on foot to the Oasis of Cartassa where before the adventure with Bryjana I had been a Magistrate, hoping to get my job and a decent home back.

 

After a few weeks of walking in the desert, we crossed the great Vosk River to go up the delta first of the Olni River, then of the Thentis River. Finally reached the great city of Thentis, I noticed that nothing had changed and that now Lady Monica. she relied completely on her Administrator of the city, an old acquaintance of mine, we had never had a good relationship, when there was the opportunity, he was the grandson of the administrator of Cartassa ..

The return to the oasis of Cartassa was not exactly happy, the journey had been quite tiring and with many dangers, bands of disbanded Bedouins raided the caravans, but we managed to stealthily reach the oasis  with a long way into the desert.

    After the first days in the city, I no longer felt at ease, even Bryjana had reached Cartassa to inspect an Opal mine and had founded her own small Oasis nearby, don't can live  with her near me, so I decided to resume the journey towards the North-East, to reach the city ​​of Olni and from there I continued towards the city of Thentis, some merchants had told me that they had no Magistrate and sometimes they called him from nearby Sais.

   Crossing the second gate I ran into two citizens of the Green caste, a man and a woman, who introduced themselves and told me they were brother and sister, the girl told me her name was Shayla and was assistant to her brother and apprentice healer, she who came from the great North, she had already been Scribe completing her studies on Campus, but who wanted to pursue a career as a doctor, she wanted to help the population.

       There was an attraction between us immediately, I felt that that woman could have been my partner, but the Commander of the guards had already set his sights on her and her brother was not at all sorry, she as you know asked me to help her, not he wanted that man of arms as his companion, but he would have preferred someone of high caste like me, a Prince from the South.

   I felt proud of that somewhat unexpected request, and at the same time I did not want to make enemy a warrior who could have stabbed me in the dark of the night in some street, even the brother I seem hesitant did not want to lose his assistant or his apprentice, because he knew that I was constantly traveling without having a destination.

    Now nothing could stand between our love, which suddenly blossomed, I loved that little woman from the North, she too confesses to love me, and we decided that I would go to her brother to ask him permission to court her, but an unexpected event  was happened. I proposed to shayla to visit the house I had chosen to live together, but everyone knows that if a free woman enters a man's house she is compromised and could be arrested and enslaved, the brother and the warrior were already discussing what to do, she sent me a message explaining what was happening, so risked everything for everything , I kidnapped little Shayla and we secretly left for the river where my ship was waiting for us, and after many days of travel in the Vosk river and the Thassa sea, arrived to what was my Oasis of the Seven Palms.

   She very happy said that she would live forever with me, and begin to furnish the building according to her tastes, we are happy in the Oasis people love us ....

THE STORY OF SHAYLA

 

Shayla and a girl like the others she lives in the North with her family and her older brother, who is already starting to study as a pysichian, while she plays carefree with her friends.
   Life in the North goes by fast they grew up while her parents got older, meanwhile Shayla was learning to read and write because her brother loved her as the most beautiful thing she has on earth, he protects her and gives her the necessary teachings.
  When their parents die, they split up, going to study in different places, leaving their land with its harsh winter climate, leaving her for the school of scribes, while he already advanced with his studies in a short time he became a good healer.
   their happy lives continue working in the cities where they were most needed. while our Shayla continued her studies in her spare time, quickly becoming a lawyer, making her studies available to the Blue caste.
    She had made herself very beautiful and certainly he had no shortage of suitors to live together in her company. but she did not see in those men the one who in front of Odin would become her companion, she aspired to a man of high caste to live happily and have children, because she had decided to abandon the Blue caste to study as her brother medicine and be able to become a good healer.
  One day his brother sends him a message announcing that he would soon take a woman as a mate in the city of Thentis, she knew that name because the merchants praised the beans grown in the hills where the best Blackwine on the planet was obtained.
    So he decided to speed up the journey to reunite with his brother, who would become his protector, so with the first ship leaving for the city he obtained a voyage, in fact it was not difficult precisely because many traders headed to Thentis for the Blackwine and for other prosperous businesses.
   Arriving early in the morning, she was fascinated by the landscape made of green hills and high walls that surrounded the city, she who had lived in the north between snow and ice, often passing the cold days in her big house, around the great fire that warmed everyone.
  She stepped off the ship happy and radiant. her bodyguard who was secretly in love with her followed her in silence looking around always alert, Shayla was amazed looking at the sky to see big Tarls fluttering high with an unusual sound of the beating of their wings sometimes seemed to want to darken the sky, everything it was new to her, the merchants at the portoal flocked to grab the best furs from Bosk or Tarsk.
    The meeting with his brother took place at the main door, the one that overlooks the large courtyard, he dressed in green escorted by two guards was waiting for him with open arms, a new life awaited him in that great city, with its high walls and its great river that flows into the great Vosk river .......... continues

SHAYLA

 The return to the city of Thentis, from my oasis, was happy but with a very long journey ... sailing the Thassa sea to the mouth of the Olni river, and then finally arriving at my old city, where before I was  Magistrate, and I had my own Scribe apprentice class.
   I left with Bryana, my pupil and protégé, who would become my partner, I wanted to introduce her to my Oasis of the Seven Palms, where I was Emir and introduce her to my people, but after a happy marriage, she dedicated herself, body and soul at the newspaper, I was editor-in-chief but then in reality it had become her only commitment, then seeing that the love was over, I left the Oasis to return first to Cartassa and then to Thentis.
   Nothing has changed when I arrived at the port, everything was familiar to me, the quay the distant mountains and the fortified city, on the hill that supported the port.
    Returning home after a long time and always exciting, I hoped that everything would return as before, even if there had been some small misunderstandings, for having me as a candidate to become an administrator, after the old man had left for the North.
    After passing the main door, some guards greeted me with affection, they recognized me, before introducing myself to the palace of the Scribes I decided to stop at the Inn, the one that travelers usually use, on the terrace to the right, there are not stairs but a long and semicircular walkway leading above, trying to maintain balance was very narrow, I managed to climb without damage.
 

   She visibly embarrassed for letting me know about her private problem, however I promised to help her 

 

    To my great surprise sitting at the cushions around the table at the back there was a woman with her bodyguard, as usual I politely greeted the woman and her guard, then I introduced myself declaring who I was, they were certainly new citizens they could not know me.
    The woman who wore a green dress certainly of the healer caste, which we call Physician, stands up as the law wants in front of a noble of high caste like I am, being Scribe and Magistrate, she also introduces herself by saying that she is lady Shayla Crannock, Physician apprentice, lived protected by her brother who was a member of the Green caste, and a Physician official of the city, she told me that she followed the lessons in the infirmary.   I reminded her that in order to exercise the law of the planet he obliges women to having two children before becoming healers.
   She told me that she knew well, but that for now she was willing to learn, then she would also think about her children and family.  She told me that she had already taken courses for Scribe on Campus and as a lawyer, and that if I needed help I could count on her.
 

The guard who had been silent all the time showed up with a grunt without my understanding his name, he told me about an alleged assault by a free man against Lady Monica, but who could not stop that one man because the city administrator had already dismissed him of all charges.
  He was visibly nervous and irritated by him, He said women are sacred, forgetting that women on the planet are free as long as the man decides, but I didn't pay him much attention because I admired the beautiful Shayla despite her veil, deep eyes could be seen and bright, they seemed to smile, I noticed that she was visibly excited and shy, talking to an unknown Magistrate, imposing like me, who are very tall compared to her.

    At one point the guard was called to the gate and the beautiful Shayla I confess that he wanted her as a companion, he had asked him to be able to court her, but she did not want to engage with anyone yet, she just wanted to study, and asked me if I could help her , but I replied that I had just arrived I had no assignments and first of all I did not want to make enemies, especially warriors, who in the night could stab you in the darkness of some street.

   She visibly embarrassed for letting me know about her private problem, however I promised to help her .. looking for a kind way to persuade the guard to desist from continuing to court her, I hope she comes to my office, she promised me to tell me about her life and help me sort out the various scrolls that I always carry around .......... continue

MAYA THE SLAVE 

 meetings with Darian
 

 

          She awakes from the back room where the furs are laid.
She smells the clean, fresh air of the tavern. It is slightly chilly, but in a good way, in a nipple-hardening way. She inspect the tavern for dust, dirt, vermin, and stains. She puts more wood into the fireplace in case a visitor comes looking for a warm hearth ... and maybe a warm body to share it with.
She discovers some odd stains on the furs and straw in the next room. She thinks to herself, "I wonder where these white stains came from?"
Perplexed sheI can only assume they were from before her time di lei.
She takes the furs down to the river to wash them. On the way she she remembered how this sort of thing would attract lice and body crabs.
At the river she hears the gently flowing water. She I knows this is not Heaven, but for her it is a grand life.
She take off all her clothes and wades out into the river, "I certainly don't want to get my clothes wet, or she will have to wash them too. Hmm, on second thought," why not "? her clothes and rubs them thoroughly in the water. The feel of the cold refreshing water across her legs feels so good that she wades out further past her hips until she feels her breasts begin to bob and sway with the currents. Going back to the edge of the river she climbs onto a flat rock and dives head first in the water enjoying the cold tingle of her skin.
As she stands up in the water, she reaches her arms into the sky as though hugging the whole world. Never has she felt more alive even while wearing the collar that promises her that she is owned and valued by someone Her body has never felt more alive, beautiful and desired than ever before. The burden of her old life di lei has been lifted. Here her mind and spirit di lei are no longer slaved.
As she climbs out of the water to hang her wet clothes on a nearby tree she sees Master Warrior pass by di lei as he is chatting with her di lei BFF di lei bryn. She waves "Tal Master Warrior, Tal sister bryn"!
Completely unconcerned for her nudity di lei they see her and wave back, although Master Warrior seems a bit distracted.
As she hangs the furs on the trees to dry, along with her clothes di lei, she feels the warm sun on her skin di lei, drying HER off. Since the tavern is not yet ready for business, she decides to enjoy her freedom di lei some more. She stretches out on the grass to get some suntan. Time passes by and she turns over on her back to bake some more.
Eventually she decides to call it a day and return to the river, wash off, dress and return the furs to the tavern.
Remembering that she needs to sweep the floor a little bit, she gets to that task.
After she completes this final task, she locates bryn who has taken an early afternoon nap. Bryn explains she had to leave early to perform her work elsewhere as she was overly tired. Smiling, she hugs her best friend di lei and tells her bryn never needs to explain herself. Bryn is her inspiration of lei and is always there when needed. That is enough.
"So chain-sister, what were you two chatting about?" she asks. Bryn was elusive, but finally admitted that he told her he wants to purchase her virginity di lei at the blood auction Saturday. this girl smiled with happiness, "Really?" "How wonderful"!
Bryn did not seem nearly enthusiastic. Sister, please share with me. I know you find him attractive, what is wrong? "Bryn strained for the words, sometimes we dont know why we are bothered, only that we are. Eventually, bryn shared," well, I am white silk. Master Warrior has fucked a lot of women with experience I do not know the skills he would expect. "I don't even know what a blowjob is except what you shared with me. It doesnt even seem to involve blowing at all."
With mischievous mirth in her eyes and giggles in her throat, this girl told her, "Of course you dont know these things" "This is why he wants to purchase you. He wants to enjoy teaching you these things. He wants to be the first to explore the mysteries of your mouth and your body. All you need to do is follow his lead and he will guide you. " "Oh you are so beautiful in your innocence, that's what I love so much about you."
"Now let's clean this tavern. We need to nail some boards back. Do you know anything about these white stains I discovered?" "No, of course they are not yours, but do we ever have unknown overnight visitors?"

THE STORY OF THE EMIRO DARIAN 2

 

                       isle of landa city               

  Arrived at the island of Landa with a pirate ship bound for Anango, what amazed me was the beauty of the city seen from the port, many palaces with golden domes soared in the sky.
    I went down the ship crossing the jetty and walked following some pilgrims to the large main door, protected by a very high iron gate, but what amazed and horrified me most were some heads impaled on spears placed on the sides of the road leading to the entrance .
   I introduced myself to the guard at the gate, him call his commander, they did not often see Magistrates arriving in their city, they escorted me to the great palace of the castes, passing between very high columns and many palm trees placed on the sides, we arrived in a large square where all the shops overlooked, from the perfumer to the butcher to the blacksmith. and many others all around that square where in the center there was a large canopy that shaded many cushions with a central table, at the end of the square there was the large building with immense stairways, each floor was intended for a caste , starting with the warriors and ending in the area intended for the Scribes, the library and the court of the tribunal.

    My wonder did not ended because all was made of very precious marble certainly imported, I don't think there was any on the island, and so many luxuriant plants looked like a great Eden, we arrived at the door of the Chief of the caste of the Scribe, il Commander after knocking, I enter introducing myself to the women who were working in the great hall at that time, I remember well Lady Moon, Lady Blue, and Lady Zypero, who told me she was the Tratrix, companion of Sir Youroki, who was the builder in the city, but whom I would meet the next day because engaged in the work of the underground.
      I introduced myself to everyone saying that I was only Darian of Korat, I never said that I was the emir of the Oasis of the seven palms, I wanted to live quietly in that beautiful and very rich city, Lady Zypero told me that I could work in the caste, I replied that I wanted to try for a week before accepting the job of magistrate, in the city was missing, after the last one had left for the great North.
    Then it was the turn of my house, Lady Moon said that the villa above the hill where she lived was empty and if I wanted I could occupy it even if it was a little far from the city, but it had a wonderful view of the sea and the hills.

I accepted because I didn't want to live in some building that overlooked the always crowded central square, I preferred the tranquility of a house in nature. On the hill opposite mine was the house of the commander of the guards, a big man I had already met at the port.
    I started my job, mostly I checked all the old documents and the various pending lawsuits, including that of the slave who had stolen bread in the oven, and in the meantime with Lady Blue day after day I noticed a beautiful affinity, I liked that woman who she was always by my side helping me in my work, often in the evening I accompanied her to the gate of her house at the foot of the hill immediately after the river, I chatted with her discussing work and telling us about our life on the planet.
    We were meant destined to fall in love and I asked him to be able to be her suitor, of course she who was protected by the commander of the guards, told me to ask him if I could, and with her permission I began my relationship with her .
     One day while I was on my way to Shendi, a Marauder apparence for Blue on the deserted waterfront road and capture her, taking her away on her ship moored in the harbor bay.
    When I returned I learned of the fact, and that the commander had left to look for her, but it was all in vain for her they never found her. I began to investigate because I was sure that someone in the city had favored that man, but I was groping in the dark, until one day while I was sitting half-hidden in the square in the shade of a large palm tree, I noticed something strange in front of the perfumer's shop , I became curious and without attracting attention I approached hidden by the columns, I saw very well a panther coming out of the perfumery, I called two guards who immediately captured that woman, I entered in perfumery it until I discovered a secret passage that led to the port, I had the panther in jail and told the guards to bring me the perfumer for questioning.

  Meanwhile, the commander had the perfumer delivered and had her locked up in a dungeon.
     Then with his guards he went out on patrol to capture any other panthers, but no one would ever suspect that the commander was an old Torvie and that, according to the perfumer, he had revealed the passage, so while he was patrolling outside the walls, two Torvie on the their Tarl. they flew in front of the gate, telling me to hand over the city keysto them ............ continue

THE STORY OF THE EMIRO DARIAN

 

I was born in an oasis in the Tahari desert, Me and my brother Orlando, sons of the sultan of the Oasis of the seven Palms, located on the road that leads from the Shendi region to the great Oasis of the two Scimitars, ours was not a great Oasis, but my brother Orlando the eldest son and I were happy, our mother she died giving birth to me, and a woman who would later become my adoptive mother, I have grew up his breastfeeding, until one day Panthers women trespassed from the great forest of Shendi attacking us with the aid of some marauders took possession of the oasis. my father the Sultan was killed and impaled, while all the others were captured and taken away, the men to the mines and the women sold as slaves, left the old men abandoned to their fate in the desert.

     My stepmom who was named Busybee wrapped us  in rugs  which she rolled into the pond while she pretended to be dead, finally when all was over she took us with her and collected some clothes and food with water and we walked towards the track that led to Shendi.
     After many weeks of walking we met a carovan headed for the town of Korat in the Shendi region. they took us with them, then entrusting us to the Notary of the city, took us to his house and began to give us lessons to become Scribe, Mrs. Busybee, whom everyone called Lady BB was taken under the protection of the commander of the guards, Sir Mith, who soon him adopt me and my brother Orlando two years older than me.

   But luck soon abandoned us, the city was again attacked by the Panthers who lived on the hills, lady BB and sir MIth took us through a secret passage that led to the port of ship Rock and from there we took a ship that sailed for Port Kar, but during the stop in the port of Brundisium, we met some notables passing by who from the island of Landa they return back to the city of OLni where they lived, like Scribe and traders, lady BB I entrust us to them so that we continue to study in one of the cities where  live the best Scribe of the planet, that is Lady Janette and Lady Lucy, we would continue to study with them ..

CITY OF LANDA

     Our adoptive parents leave us to continue their journey north to the village of Finnur, while we, when we arrived in Olni, resumed our studies.
   Orlando and I became scribe myself as a cartographer and Orlando as an Ambassador and soon he leave , and I was left alone I had nothing to do but continue studying, Lady Janette take the professorship in the University of the Campus, she move there and I followed her starting his studies as a lawyer and magistrate, also attending a course as a master of ceremonies. After the degrees obtained as Lawyer and Magistrate I returned to the city of Olni where I had the job of Magistrate, but for my young age I immediately made enemies, so I decided to leave, going down the Vosk river, stopping in the city of Port Kar, where I had a job as a lawyer, but I didn't have much to do, since in that city they were all criminals, i spent the days outside the walls towards the hills, one day a Panther from the village located on top of one of the hills, she took myself, but  do not bring me to village because by love at first sight we fell in love starting a relationship, she tried to teach me how to fight, which I did quite well.

   One day she told me that there was a tournament in the Black city and that she as queen of the panthers wanted to participate in the competitions, I followed her even if I did not have to fight, but unfortunately she lost her balance during a fight and fell on pointed spears and died in a short time.
     I suffered a lot, I did not know what to do, luckily at the port I found a ship bound for the city of Svago in the archipelago of Cos, and I left.
   That big and beautiful city was ruled by women, few men and many slaves, like Scribe I was forced to work with evil women and after a few months I left for the city of Landa, where I got my first real job as a Magistrate .... ......keep on

A DAY OF EMIR

     Despite everything I am still here, commenting on the latest events, many have come to my office to learn the truth, some curious, others interested, I have nothing more to say about the past, the water of the river passes and ends up in the sea , it gets confused with it, it loses its sweetness, it becomes salty.
     I was not waiting on the river bank to see my enemy pass, I am not interested in gossip, someone tried to make me fall off the cliff, but I clung and I came back to reality.
   While strolling through the Oasis with the hope of meeting Sir Abu, the Pasha of the oasis, I came across a woman with a youthful appearance, but with the features of a woman from the North, who wandered lost in the streets, barely paved by lady Safina our great builder.

   When she arrived near me I politely greeted her, as befits a free man when she meets a free woman. After the greetings, I told him my name and my noble origin from the oasis of the Seven Palms where I am the Emir, even if lately I have abandoned what were my duties as Emir and chief editor of the three moons gazette.
    I asked him who she was and where she came from and how she never traveled alone without an escort in a Thahari Oasis, she immediately saw that she was very embarrassed not used to talking with high noble personalities.
   She immediately told me her name and that she came from a remote village in Torwsland, and that she traded in herbs, it is known that in the north as well as furs. the main trade is medicinal herbs and certainly suitable for making delicious perfumes for women.

ZONTALEOTIE HAFIDABINT GONGO

   I continue saying that while from the city of Brundisium they were on their way to the city of Ar, marauders attacked them and her caravan was dispersed in the desert, many were killed, she pretending to be dead managed to escape those marauders, then with a horse remained in the nearby I run away without a precise destination, she had no maps or knowledge of the desert, and so she arrived in the oasis of Cartassa safe and sound. telling me that luckily she had managed to save some herbs, just to make her survive.
     I was impressed by the story of the woman forced to wear the veil here in the desert, which is somewhat frowned upon in the villages of the north, you offer me to entrust him with an escort for the period he would have lived in the Oasis but she with a rather arrogant tone, told me that at the north women know how to stand up for themselves and do not need guards.

   I liked that woman so sure of herself, I invited her to the cafe to offer him something fresh on that hot sunny morning, she cleaned her clothes and shoes from the sand accumulated during the trip and followed me thanking me for the invitation.

  I tell about her family, her people, her village, and the desire she had to get to know the planet and the big cities of the South.
   I told him that I had lived in the north and especially in Finnur the village where my adoptive mother Lady BB took me with her when we escaped from the old Cartassa which fell many years ago.
    I then accompanied her to the inn where they assigned him a room and directed her to the little lady ZonteLotie, the chaste chief of the Merchants because she would surely help her in her trade and maybe her by renting him a shop.    On the way home, which Lady Safina had assigned me next to that of Lady Jinny, an old acquaintance of mine for many years, (with the hope that sooner or later I will not be able to conquer her, but it will be difficult for her to think about career for now) I ran into Lady Sartita the chocolatier. I reminded him of her promise to offer me her chocolates, her specialty ..... but that's another story.

THE OASIS HAS COLLAPSED

    Like every dream this is also over, you wake up in the morning and find yourself alone and sad, the house of cards with all my oasis has collapsed.
  One day, while we were happily strolling in the garden of the new oasis built on the ruins of the old one, a man with an anonymous but quite convincing appearance showed up, essentially talks  my queen, and show him the wealth that he could will have with the extraction of opals from our mines, this man named Stones, and certainly a miner who came from who knows where, for seek his fortune.
     She was dazzled by the prospect of sudden wealth, as if she didn't was enough for him she was the queen of the oasis and the Emir's companion, and indeed she spent her time at our newspaper, though she often excluded me from any decision about articles, but everything was fine the newspaper was selling and certainly producing a profit.

LADY SAFINA

     Meanwhile, I had made contact with the city of Cartassa where I  lived for a long time, to get back my role as Magistrate, I wanted to resume my old job, the life of the oasis bored me, I no longer had any interest in participating in daily life.
    In the meantime the man called Stones began his work in the mines while the woman followed him in his research, I actively participated in the life of the oasis of Cartassa. One evening I entered the cafe, there was Lady Safina and her daughter Lotie, they were discussing with a man who looked like the miner Stones, but it was not him, in the half light I had exchanged him for the other, he was instead a passing slaver who wanted to buy the little Lotie daughter of Safina to make her his partner, but surely. 'he would enslave and sell to who knows who. I did not intervene, I did not know the situation well, and in the meantime Bryjana also arrived and scolded me loudly for having confused the man.
    So it was that she took all her things and moved to the new oasis, giving it a rather bizarre name '' oasis of opals '', I with my caravan, and with my trusted men returned to Cartassa asking for hospitality to Lady Safina who in agreement with the Pasha, she assign myself a house near that of Lady Jinny, who has also returned to the oasis after a lot of traveling.

CARTASSA-DESERT OASIS

    The next day I met the Pasha in the main street who accused me of having had contact with the slaveholder who wanted to kidnap Leotia, I confirmed that I was unaware of that matter and that Leotia's uncle in my presence had arrested the man, even if in the night someone made him flee.
  Having cleared up the misunderstanding, I started living in the oasis moving between the houses trying to memorize the streets and squares. I started to have contacts with the population, which I hope will soon become friends.
  About the queen who became ... she lives in the new oasis of the Opals, surrounded by her friends and by some of her trusts, .. there is nothing more to say for now we will see how the story will evolve

Kara Erin Na'kos-2
 

 

 the event happened in the city of Olni, but inexplicably the trial would have taken place in the city of Sais, 

where you will remember with my sweet Bryjana we lived for some time, and where our friend Sir Nicholas live, who I later learned would been the Magistrate .
    I was very surprised by this, because in the city of Sais I had been Magistrate, but that Monica, in order to repopulate the city, had given the job to a Merchant that I had met in Thentis, he arrived with her partner, his daughter. and her slaves. a breath of fresh air for the city preparing for the tournament of the Tsar game, it was then that with Bryjana very disappointed and angry we returned to the desert and conquered an island where we then founded the oasis of seven palm trees.
   

     Sir Jarek did everything he could to get her convicted, but Sir Robert managed to dismantle all the man-made house of cards, and it was so that after a long reflection Sir Nicholas the Magistrate acquitted the woman, (a good sentence I myself would have made as many) freeing it. but he did not precede himself against the man because no one had filed a complaint against him, but I believe that his reputation has suffered a lot, after that fool made in court, and I do not know how Kara Erin will still be able to face her family ready to getting her condemned, however, is something we will know over time

 

I said of the surprise, I expected that they would call me as Magistrate, because I had already been Magistrate in Olni and in Sais, but they did not because I had been Lady Kara's suitor, and it would not have been regular, but at least I expected to be called as a witness. but let's get to the facts.
     A slaver who had just arrived in the city of Olni, naturally without bringing any slave with him, denounced Kara Erin of having courted him with winking words and lewd attitudes, and for this reason the law of the Planet provides for slavery for women.
    I told you that Sir Robert would be the defense attorney and him undertake  to dismantling all the charges, while Sir Jarek the prosecutor I bring to testify both the father of Kara Erin sir Tuor, that the brother hitherto unknown to me, an idler who wandered around the taverns of the cities and who had found work as a warrior in Olni,
   Despite his daughter, his father loved him and he returned to the tuchuk camp and resumed his duties as head of the family, and in the interrogation he said that his daughter had sometimes needed some punishment for her life conduct. While his brother Sir Turgon asserts that as he passed the tavern door he saw his sister sitting on the slaver's knee, recalling that he had also heard cries for help from inside.

     It was bad if even family members testified against it, but Sir Robert managed to get the man to admit that he had pulled Kara Erin on her legs and that at his attempt to kiss her she had freed herself screaming for help, and the warrior Turgon who he ran inside and was forced to arrest the woman because the slaver was asking for it.
  Lady Safina from the oasis of Cartassa in the Thahara desert was also called to testify, she has a brother who lives in OLni with the family, asserting that one day while walking with her child, KaraErin would have complimented the little one appreciating him for her beauty, another theestimon against.
     It came to light that the woman had asked the man if she was still officially engaged, since is partner was known to have fled with two men away who knows where. and that she would ask him if she was interested in having a partner in her life.
    I, who knew Kara, knew well of her solitude in the camp and on her farm, and that she would have liked to have a family and children, the man short of slaves had taken the opportunity to have her imprisoned and if she had been sentenced. she would become a city slave then his.

KARA ERIN NA'KOS

      

  I had already told you about Lady Kara Erin Na'kos, the daughter of the great Builder Sir Tuor .. of the Tuchuk tribe, who lives in their Vagons outside the city walls of Olni, where I was Magistrate before meeting Lady Bryana in the city of Thentis , then with my trusted warriors we conquered the island of seven palms, in the sea of ​​Thassa, a small oasis not far from the island of Landa. Kara Erin was a merchant In the city of Olni, she sold the products of her farm that she had in the hills bordering the city of Ti.

LADY KIT

      While I was at the Oasis, Bryjana and I, just returned from a long journey from the towns of Thentis, Cartassa, Hammersgaard and other villages encountered along the way, a merchant arrived on a ship bound for Anango, the pirate island. at the extreme south of the sea of ​​Thassa, while it was going down the Vosk river in the gTurgon Na'Kosreat gulf, he had had a lot of damage to the sails due to a storm, and they stopped in my Oasis, for the repair of them, talking with this merchant that in the city ​​of Olni had arrested a merchant of Tuchuk origins.
    Hearing his words hit my heart, I had lived in Olni and knew the Tuchuk tribe well. for a while I had courted the queen's daughter, lady ....... then after the three months of courtship I leave without the consent of my father Sir Tuor, a great warrior who has traveled for a long time, and everyone knows that if there was no authorization from her father she would never have been my partner.

SIR NICHOLAS EEL

 

      In fact the merchant said that they had arrested Lady Kara Erin, for having had an obscene attitude towards the new Slaver just arrived in the city, I did not believe my ears, I knew that woman well and I never thought that she had similar attitudes towards a man , even if in the tribes there is always a freedom of expression and behavior different from the free women of the cities.
      I was very angry and at the same time bewildered, I talked to Bryjana about it and we agreed that we could go on that long journey to witness the trial, and understand what actually happened, and write an article for our Gazetta delle Lune.
    We left as soon as the ship was ready to sail, the journey was very long and demanding, going up the sea of ​​Thassa, then the great gulf, and then sailing the long Vosk river. at the mouth of the river Olni.
   The journey was very tiring, luckily the weather was mild and everything went smoothly until we reached the port of the city, but when we arrived at the pier the guards warned us that there was no one left and that all had moved to the city of Sais, where the trial was to take place.

SIR RAY

    I knew the city of Sais I lived there once for a while, it was at the confluence of the Olni river with the Thentis river, and after having stocked up on water and food we left, the port not very large, but already full of ships, at the pier I recognized Lady Safina Umar BInt el Congo companion of sir el Congo Pasha of the city of Cartassa in the desert of Thahari, we have an office in that city, where we stop on our long journeys especially for the city of Ar, I was amazed by her presence, then I remembered that her brother Ordoro el Congo lived in Olni, and part of her family, I would know after she had been called to testify to the trial that would begin the next day, in the great court of the tower of the scribes.
    I inquired and was told that the magistrate was Sir Nicholas Eel, one of the administrators of the city of Sais, and Lady Kara's defense attorney would be Sir Robert Livingstone, head of the scribal caste of the city of Olni, and the accusation would be sir .Mσяgσтн Ƙσвιcнєηкσ Ɗαηѕє

SIR TURGON NA'KOS

     With Bryjana we sat in a place far enough away that we could take notes without disturbing anyone, the Court filled up when both witnesses and spectators arrived, Sir Nicholas arrived taking the place of the Magistrate, while Sir Robert walked up. and down nervously waiting for the guards to take his client to court.
      Almost all the citizens of the Olni and Thentis castes were there, even some from Sais but not many, Lady Safina was with Lady Lambada, who had taken off her shoes for many steps and was massaging her feet from time to time,
      The whole Na'ks family arrived, mother, father and a son Turgon Na'Kos who had returned to Olni after long years to fill the position of warrior, but had nothing to do with the haughty and immense figure of his father Sir Tuor a great builder in Olni , and I had lived there for many years, I had never heard of this son, who in my opinion even his father did not esteem him very much. since he had the attitude of a longshoreman and not a warrior, I honestly wouldn't trust one like that.
     The Slaver also arrived ............ who had do imprisoned lady Kara
