.There is much for her to do.""Does it take long to clean compartments?" she asked."Only a few moments," I admitted."Goreans live simply, and do not muchapprove of cumbersome furniture.""It does not sound to me like the slave girl is overburdened with domesticlabors," she said."I suppose, objectively, she is not," I said."Still, there are things for herto do.""Is she as occupied as the wife of Earth?" asked the girl."Of course not," I said."That would be foolish.The wife of Earth is, fromthe Gorean point of view, much overworked.When the husband returns home sheis often, actually, engaged in labors.How can she greet him properly? At night, so numerous and excessive have beenher labors, she is often exhausted.That would be preposterous from the Goreanpoint of view.The Gorean master does not buy a girl with the primaryobjective of obtaining a domestic servant but with the intention of acquiringa marvelous slave.He wants the girl to be a wonder to him.He is quitecheerful about the sacrifice of domestic servitude in order to obtain what isfar more important to him.When he returns to his compartments he does not want to find a worn chorewoman there but a lovely slave, fresh, vital, eager and fully alive, kneelingbefore him, waiting to be commanded.""What does the girl do in her free time?" asked Audrey."Much what she pleases," I said."She will have friends among other slaves.She walks, she visits.She exercises, she reads.Within limits she does what she wants to do.""Can she work outside the compartments?" asked Audrey."If it is permitted by the master," I said, "and it does not in any waycompromise her slavery." Ismiled."Some women," I said, "wear to their work the garments of a free womanbut, when they return to their compartments, don as they must the silk of aslave, which is their true condition.""Is such a thing often permitted by a master?" asked Audrey."Commonly not," I said."Such a thing is often thought to compromise a girl'sslavery.It is usually not permitted to her.Usually she is kept as full andabsolute slave, not so much as permitted to touch the garment of a freewoman.""I would like my master to be like that," said Audrey."Most masters are," I said.Page 161 ABC Amber Palm Converter, http://www.processtext.com/abcpalm.html"If I am a slave, I would want to be a full slave," she said."I think you have little to fear, pretty Audrey," I said."Any master who somuch as looks at you would know that you should be kept only as a full slave.""Yes," she said, kissing me, "that is right for me.""Sometimes, Masters, as a discipline, rent their girls out to employers toperform repetitious, trivial tasks.""How horrid," she said.file:///F|/rah/John%20Norman/12%20-%20Beasts%20Of%20Gor.txt (125 of 224)[1/20/03 3:26:43 AM]file:///F|/rah/John%20Norman/12%20-%20Beasts%20Of%20Gor.txt"See that you please your master well," I said."I will certainly try," she said."There are, of course, many slaveries in the south," I said."I have describedonly the most common to you.""Tell me of others," she begged."For I might be sold into them.""There are paga slaves," I said, "who must please their master's customers inhis tavern.There are the girls who staff the public kitchens and laundries.There are rent slaves, who may be rented to anyone for any purpose, short oftheir injury or mutilation, unless compensation be rendered to the master.There are state slaves who maintain public compartments, and work in officesand warehouses.There are girls in peasant villages, and girls on great farms,who cook and carry water to the slave gangs.There are beauties who arepurchased for a man's pleasure gardens.There are other girls who work in themills, chained to their looms."She looked at me, frightened."Any of these slaveries, or any of many others," I said, "could be yours.Itdepends entirely, pretty Audrey, on who buys you, and what he wants.""How helpless I feel," she whispered."You are helpless, absolutely helpless," I told her."Surely," she whispered, "I can attempt to influence the nature of myslavery.""Of course," I said."But the decision is never yours.In that sense you areabsolutely helpless.""Yes, Master," she said, trembling."The mills and the public kitchens, and such, are not pleasant." I said."I do not want to go to such slaveries as the mills or public kitchens," shesaid."I will try to be a pleasing slave.""Excellent, Audrey, Slave Girl," I said."Do masters much talk with their girls, or take them with them?" she asked."Certainly," I said."It is extremely pleasurable to talk with a girl oneowns.Also, one takes her many places, she heeling him, to concerts, contests,song dramas and so on, both to show her off and because he finds her a joy tobe with.""I think I could well serve such a master," she said."You would," I said, "or you, being a slave, would be promptly and efficientlydisciplined, most likely whipped.""Whipped?" she asked."Could such a man whip a girl?""Of course," I said."Do not think that the pleasure he finds in you will bepermitted in the least to compromise his mastery of you.""I would thrill to be owned by such a man," she said.I smiled to myself
