For as long as the Maestra was alive, it was important to note that she had lived a long and fulfilling life. She lived in a patriarchal society where women were treated like second-class citizens.
This was more apparent and rampant on the small island she lived in. Back then, the mysterious island wasn't called Manika. It was only named as such when the Maestra started creating her Eternity Women, which were the main product and attraction of the island.
Hence the name 'Manika,' which meant 'doll.
Returning to the topic at hand, before Manika was known for what it is now, the men of her island used women as slaves, both physically and sexually.
In fact, the Maestra herself was a victim of slavery.
