A pair of soft eyes slowly opened in the darkness, revealing bright, azure pupils.
Noa looked left and right with fear and alertness.
She was confined within a small, iron cell with dozens of other women.
Unlike her, all of these women were half naked, only their private parts being covered up with dirty rags.
They had blisters and injuries all over their dirt-covered bodies, their hair frizzled to a mess and their eyes void of all emotions.
Noa gasped subconsciously, horrified at what she saw: 'All of these women... they are slaves.'
She was taken aback with sorrow and also anger at this entire concept.
Her knees weakened, buckling beneath her as she fell onto her feet.
Noa never remembered coming to Rock Saelfine, the village of Imbu.
She had always remembered her life in another place far away from here, with her parents and family.
However, a lapse in her memory caused her to one day appear in Imbu.
