On the outskirts beyond the forest of lost souls, stood a high stoned walled stretching as far as the eye can see, and within it contained five large buildings, their resemblance something that of a prison. On the entrance of the wall, engraved above its two large steel doors, was the word IJHYEOJIN (the forgotten).
There was a silence and eeriness about the place even with the morning sun shining so brightly, and enchanted over the entirety of the walls and building was an unseeable barrier, created for the purpose of keeping those within its walls from ever escaping.
Beyond its doors it housed only one kind of species known as omegas, both male and female alike. After the late emperor enslaved their race, all omegas were captured and taken far away from the Zoultanian Lands, but were still kept within its borders. Any future birth of an omega required the mother to hand over that child to the institution straight away. The child is then coded and trained from the age of ten, depending on their strength test they are placed into either category of, domestic omega, or fighter omega.
Domestic omegas are bought for the purpose of aiding their master's within their homes and business, completing chores such as cleaning, cooking, washing and any other domesticated or business tasked required buy their masters. Unlike hired maids or workers, they are not paid for their day's work. Once brought and handed over to their masters, they're the property of that master, if the masters so wishes they could work their omegas until he or she is satisfied. Therefore, a domestic omega can be expected to work 24 hours per day for fives day straight without rest, the only requirement mandatory is that their masters return them back to the institution weekly for two days, so the institution can retain and carry out what is called a mandatory "Product quality" examination and administer them with inhibitors, which is used to impede an omegas heat and pheromones. During this examination, if that omega is deemed unfit to return to their master's side, they are terminated and replaced.
To highlight their status as omega slaves, domestic omegas are dressed in special uniform, at all times they are required to wear a red with gold trim gown and the insignia of the institution decorated on the front of their waist belt, upon their heads they're to wear a large top hat attached with a white veil that covered their faces, the special feather of the veil allows the omegas to see others but not for others to see them, their hands are covered with a white glove and on their feet they wore a with white boot. As a rule of the institution, omegas are to remain fully clothed at all times, no omega slave is allowed to expose their body to their masters.
Fighter omegas, on the other hand, were originally trained for the purpose of protecting their masters, in essence they were used a shield in times of assassination. Though they are much weaker than a Beta, even with their years of training, omegas tend to heal faster, and a resilient too certain to climates such as during the winter seasons. Therefore, they're preferred during times of wars where they are often used as the pawns, or as baits for when their masters go hunting for wild animals. Primarily they are used for target practice or sparring partners for the army's real soldiers, when purchased by a master they can be used regardless of injuries.
Unlike domestic omegas, they are not required back at the institution once per week, but instead receive a visit from the institution's doctor once a month to top up their inhibitors and major injuries. For more severely injured omegas depending on the use of the omega, the institution will carry out an investigation on their masters, if in fact the omega has been used for other purposes than descried at purchase. That master will be fined up to ten times their omegas original purchase price and band from purchasing fighter omegas in the future.
This law was put in place as a deterrent method by the institution, to prevent omega trafficking and mating.
In comparison to domestic omegas, fighter omegas are clothed in a large black hooded gown, with wide red sleeves, on their waist belt the insignia of the institution is stitched into its fabric and embroidered into their gown on either side of their chest is a single red strip to signify their fighter status, on their face they wore full coverage black face mask and their hands covered with a black leather glove. They carry no weapons and are only supplied with armaments provided by their masters, the unauthorized use or possession of a weapon would warrant a hundred lashes from their masters, even the amputation of a limb.
To maintain order and obedience from each omega, they are stripped of any given names and are instead assigned a number beginning with the acronym DS for domestic slaves and FS for fighter slaves. On purchase of an omega their masters are prohibited from assigning them a name, any insubordination from an omega will see that omega returned to the institution for a special retaining program.
If the possibility arises where an omega may rebel against the institution, additional enchantments have been placed on each omega, identifying their location at any given time. Additionally, omegas from different households are not allowed to gather alone without their master's supervision.
"Good morning, sir" a young soldier at the very entrance of the institution greeted Ronald as her made his way through the large steel doors.
With a simple nod to acknowledge the young man, Ronald spoke no words and carried on his way.
Inside the walls of IJHYEOJIN was large and quiet, from the moment you walked in you wished to leave, though it was clean and well-kept, there is a sadness about the place. The walls are all painted white, not a spec of dirt to be seen, it's ceiling high and unreachable with the average ladder, there were no windows only small gaps to allow the flow of air to circulate.
As Ronald continued though this large building that housed over a hundred thousand omegas, he upon a long corridor, on either side of him were layers upon layers of doors, stairs and more corridors all pointing in different directions. On his right, all the doors were painted black with the letters FS written in large red letters on each door and a designated number assigned on its door. On his left the same applied however the doors were painted Red with gold letters, above on each layer the sequenced continued even the stairs and corridors were painted with diving colours separating those with a black door and those whose door was red. The purpose is to ensure that neither the fighter omegas nor domestic omegas interacted.
The five buildings within the institution house twenty thousand omegas each, and with each building holding it own purpose, for example the younger children will be housed in a different building until they reach a certain age.
In the centre of each building hanging from its celling in great display the following words could be seen "I am an omega, and you are my master, my existence is to serve you in this life and the next"
Ronald glanced at the words above, and a frown formed on his face, he had long since hated that ghastly thing. Having been assigned the high-ranking keeper of this place, when he was dismissed as Li Hung guard, he had become accustomed to its daily operations, but still he found this place had taken a toll on his mental state. No matter how he rationalized it, he felt a heavy sadness each time he entered this place.
Having walked some distance he finally arrived at a section of the building with a double door that had etching above reading "OMEGA FREE ZONE", it was his office and one of the many rooms in the institution he disliked, taking a deep breath he entered. Unlike the bright white walls and prison like décor beyond his office doors, he had chosen to paint his office wall black with white furnishings, giving it an elegant yet harrowing feeling.
Resting on his large white and glass table were three files spread equally apart on the front were written DS882, DS671 and DS706, "huh? DS706," he picked up the file and turned its pages, stunned when he saw the words Zheng Wu XiaoSheng Master!
