From her flashback, she heard screams. Loud cries of her people then she opened her tired eyes. She was sleepy, but what was wrong with her? She had almost fallen asleep in her enemy's territory.
Some of the villagers had been captured and dragged to the market place, not too far from the prison yard. She watched as different men, dressed in silk came forth and purchased men and women from her village.
She had keen eyesight and so saw clearly two beautiful women, one older and the other younger. Dressed in expensive silk, a tiny umbrella over their head as shade. It was to protect them from the harsh sun. They looked delicate and their hair in intricate designs.
And then something clicked. She heard that in the capital, they had brothels, even in all the four kingdoms. She immediately stood up and grabbed onto the iron bars.
She was so focused on the women that she didn't see a figure stand beside her.
