Nyota

Before slavery, Nyota was well known for her dancing and singing skills. In addition, she knew how to play several instruments, and Lords appreciated her performances. Nyota and her friends performed in Karavanserais but also palaces. Her mystery created part of her fame. She was a free woman; therefore, she was not accessible to Lords and Masters like slave performers. Instead, Nyota chose someone if she liked them.

Lord Tabriz was so overwhelmed by the performance and Nyotas beauty that she proposed to her. He didn't care that authorities or people did not accept his proposal, which was considered scandalous. Lord was even angrier after declined answer and news that Nyota had settled in the court of Lord Khoy. Houses of Tabriz and Khoy were old enemies, and Lord was sure Nyota did her trick only to mock him. Because of an old resentment between houses, it was easy to justify an attack on the city that Lord Khoy ruled.

House of Tabriz had a huge overpower in comparison to House Khoy. War was more like a raid on the unprepared village. Despite that, victory was good and celebrated. Troops returned with good loot, including a great number of slaves. Raiders managed to capture Royal house in full numbers, and none of them was able to suicide before they were detained. The humiliation of the Royal house was days lasting spectacle that gathered citizens to celerate and watch how winners took all the nobility away from old rulers.

Lord Tabriz participated in celebrations only when he was required. Most of the time, he spends time with the new toy he managed to capture. After capturing Nyota was taken to Lord's private mansion. Lord Tabriz knew that a free woman like Nyota would be difficult to shape as an obedient slave girl. Luckily he had all the skills and tools to do that, and he would enjoy breaking a girl's free mind.

Nyota survived torture, but now she knew her position, and she had feared her Master. Fortunate to Nyota, Lord Tabriz was a man who required more and more toys. Soon Nyota was just one harem girl in a growing number of slaves around Lord Tabriz. Finally, Nyota was forgotten and sold to the caravan moving to the North.

Karim discovered Nyota from Caravanserai, where she was entertaining her Master by singing and dancing. The girl had skill and beauty that was stronger than a dagger hit to the heart. Karim overpaid for a girl at that spot and took her with him. After the slaves cleaned her, guards brought her in front of the Karim, who inspected her carefully.

New Master was less scary than the previous. He cared for his personal slaves well, and even slave girls of the caravanserai enjoyed serving him. However, soon Nyota learned that her Master was a warlord who didn't stay in one place for a long time. Traveling with caravans, caravanserais, and palaces of lords who hosted her Master reminded her of the past. Master was happy to realize that Nyota was not just another beautiful Harem slave. She moved with Caravan end didn't complain or show tiredness. Soon Nyota was her Master's First Slave.
