       says to ALL: I had many things on My mind and wondered How I
       would fit it all in Before the cold weather froze us in here ...
       time would tell but still I would think on such... I had some
       Trade i needed doing and people I needed to meet with... my
       fingers ran my lips as I got lost in Those thoughts of Mine

       [On the Thassa]
       -on a Ship sailing on the Thassa Sea-
       says to ALL: Having found an abandoned row boat, much like
       myself, abandoned by my last Owner, leaving me to travel Gor
       alone and unwanted. I had managed to flee the area surrounded by
       Slavers, when i had come upon this boat by the beach it was cast
       upon. It was sturdy enough and did not leak any water when i
       pushed it off the shore. Jumping in, the kirtle i wore was not
       only torn and dirty, but now wet as well, as the woolen fabric
       clung to salacious bits. Using the paddles to row out into the
       open waters, there was no sight of land or other boats for a few
       days. I had no food or water stored, as i licked dried lips with
       a tip of my tongue, making them even worse as salty, sea air
       washed over the cracked surface. If a Slaver ship did happen to
       come by, i would be doomed and caught, then sold off like
       chattel. I was not new to being a slave on Gor, but had hoped to
       find a place to call home once more, on my own. I was growing
       tired and weary from the constant paddling made. Waves lopped
       along the side of the boat, sending me a bit more to the North
       than i had intended to go.
       As the days past, time seemed to be fluid, barely noticing the
       night from day, though the air had been warm when i started, it
       grew colder as i paddled the boat, now in a Northern direction.
       Teeth began to chatter, especially at night, with only the stars
       and tri moons above to guide me, i went blindly forwards, not
       really knowing where i was going or where i would end up. By the
       third day, i could swear i saw a bit of land ahead. It was still
       quite a journey, but hope rose that i would soon feel ground
       beneath bare feet again and perhaps there would be people there
       as well. I was already malnourished, ribs even shown, my last
       Owner was hardly around and only fed me when He felt the need to
       do so, and it was always gruel. How i hated that stuff, though
       it was better than nothing i imagined as i could have simply
       starved to death. From my travels to escape my past, i was dirty
       all over even my hair was almost matted, usually golden, it had
       tinges of brown from hands gone by without being able to bathe
       properly. Though if you looked close enough, you would see i was
       still beautiful, my eyes were large and round, the color of the
       Thassa itself, that i rowed upon right now. After a few more
       ahns of rowing without pause, there was indeed land now ahead,
       hope rose further, giving me strength to carry on.

       says to ALL: in the distance i could hear the sounds of the
       Horns.. I did Look out to the inlet But nothing or no ship was
       there ...it took time for a small boat to make way to the inlet
       and docks... I knew The out posts On the Island would be well
       aware of any activity

       A Hulneth citizen is weaving a tale to further the story.
       says to natasha: It was not long that the guard were notified of
       the presence of an oncoming boat, a small rowboat, and due to
       the cold knowing if the person upon it would be very cold, as
       the cold was coming on and then three of the guard would make
       for the shore to prepare for the landing of the row boat seeing
       the small girl rowing, as they seemed slightly impressed that a
       girl in such manner was rowing the boat by herself, as they
       figured she was a fit one, a dirty one though as she needed a
       bath and probably a place to warm up as she may of been chilled
       right to the bone

       [Approaching Hulneth]
       - on a serpent ship, approaching the entrance to the fjords -
       says to ALL: As the day progressed and the ahn grew late, the
       light of La Torvis hung lower in the sky, but as i rowed, land
       did appear more to the eye, i was steadily approaching an
       island, somewhere out here in the colder weather, i must be in
       the North i gathered, wishing i had a cloak and boots right
       about now. I was barely dressed to face winter weather, the
       kirtle was torn in two spots, one at the edge and one further
       up, almost a slit appears in the woolen fabric. It used to be a
       brilliant color of white, now almost seems to resemble gray,
       from hands gone by without changing into another and i had
       gathered dirt from my travels. I probably was a sight to behold
       right about now, and though i did care for my presentation of
       myself, i had so far, not had the way or means to make myself
       look decent again. I tried my best to guide the loose curls back
       into place, so erratic with the whipping winds, they just blew
       about anyways. I continued to row as edges of land drew closer,
       soon now i would be upon the docks, or perhaps there was a beach
       i could safely land on, gathering there was Guards about,
       protecting this place. I looked furtively around for a place to
       guide the small boat, shivering constantly now, as lips and feet
       below turn paler shades of ivory first from the colder weather
       here.

       says to natasha: I was sat at the fires looking towards The
       docks of the Village of Hulneth as a small row boat bumped into
       the dock.. The guards turned as I watched .. and Moved over
       towards what seemed to be an empty boat...untill the tall guard
       reached to a lantern then Called for the boat to be tied off.
       and to help the girl half frozen and skinny from the seat... I
       sat Up and leaned forward to watch .. and The men surrounded The
       boat...not to attack just yet ..but to make sure she was alive..
       ... I looked side to side for anyother ship That might follow...
       my mind alert to what could be a cover for any raider ...I
       watched

       [At the docks]
       ..A single wooden dock on the bank of a river where serpent
       ships may dock to load and unload small amounts of cargo or
       passengers..
       says to --| Nyah |-- --|House : Seeing the guards surrounding
       the dock, i had no choice but to continue forth as i row a bit
       more, using the last of my strength, bumping into the edge of
       the dock itself. The first guard grabs the boat and ties it
       secure, so there is no chance now of getting away. Though none
       manhandle me in any way, they actually help me from the boat as
       i stand there, near frozen, shivering in the cold. MY feet and
       lips were slowly turning a shade of blue, the ripped and dirty
       kirtle not much offered in the way of warmth for this winter
       weather. They surround me a bit, one drapes a very large cloak
       over my shoulders, it consumes a petite form below. Led over
       towards the fire that burned so brightly just ahead. Bare feet
       hit the snowy surface just below and i cringe as the chills
       dance over me once more.

       says to natasha: I would stand as the guards approached and one
       spoke Loud as he moved with the girl.... just watching her as
       she Moved over the sand and towards The fires... I motioned to
       one of the girls of Hulneth to get water for now .. and she ran
       off to gather a small Bowl.. returning and stood next to me ...
       the girl approached and The guard called out...
       I would of course smile... My crew of sea men just watched the
       lass ...i knew There eyes on each other wondering who would win
       this Beauty ..if she was to be handed over for a prize in the
       many drunken games The crew played.... "lass come here to my
       feet and explain how when and why you have Made it This far
       North with out being eaten by some sea Creature?"

       says to --| Nyah |-- --|House : I was led over to where You
       stood as the guards that had hovered over for me now, finally
       stepped back. Having felt the Men staring at me as i walked
       beside them, i may be dirty, but i was indeed beautiful. Once
       they stepped back, giving me room to walk forwards, every step
       taken, chilling me further as bare feet below grew even colder
       sinking into the drifts of snow. I heard Your query lift as You
       motioned me towards You, i was one to obey instantly and walked
       the few small steps between You and me. Once before You, i did
       as i had been trained to do, whenever in the presence of a Free,
       regardless of the chilled ground below, a svelte form folded
       into a demure kneel, right at Your feet, i poised myself
       properly and began to tell my tale, * well You see Mistress, my
       last Owner basically abandoned me, for over six hands till the
       day i finally left. He was an avid hunter and ventured to the
       deep forests, i presume He came to His demise there, for He
       never returned, to be seen or heard from again.I was on my own
       then, traveling the outskirts of Gor, avoiding capture by
       Slavers or Guards, till now that is. I came upon a beach and
       found this abandoned boat i could use, i felt it would not be
       far to find land again, though i was out there about three days
       now, managing to survive in wits and strength, for i had no food
       or water. The waves hit the small boat rather hard and turned me
       North i see now, and that is how i came to be here Mistress.*

       says to natasha: I watched you move closer and as you did so I
       looked to my girl jamee and nodded to the girls Feet
       "fetch some boots and a warm kirtle.... a fur and some
       soap.....then you will fill the inside tub and she will be
       washed and made warm....she will be fed... hair brushed and then
       returned to me....But for the moment i will speak with her ...go
       jamee and return when the water has filled the tub" jamee ran
       off to do as i asked and then you were before me.. as you went
       to kneel one of the Men threw a fur for you to kneel upon... I
       would look you over as well as I could for the guards had
       covered you in furs and it was late.....
       "and the thassa bought you to us it seems huh?" and I would
       chuckle... I reached down and Lifted your head slowly Fingers
       tucked under your chin.. as I turned your head slightly from
       side to side..... I saw your lips were dry and marked from the
       salt water and the sun... and i motioned to the girl to offer
       you water.. and stepped back some so you may drink....[/center]
