Prepares Chieftain's Cabin for Departure (26 March)

[19:14]  ℂℓy (clysa.dragoone) sighs softly, as steelyeyes blinking, waking slowly, cly gazes about the dimness wiithin her Jarl's cabin. Today was the day. Her Jarl returned a few days ago and met with the Village council. It was decided, that they would be seeking out lusher lands then that of the 'Mark, to prosper on.
Stretching as she rises, cly noticee her Jarl had slipped out before dawn, not dsturbing her. No doubt he was at the docks, speaking to the captain and preparing the serpent to sail that day. Going to the fireplace, she added some more log to the dying ambers. It was early spring and the air still holds a chill to it. As the cabin starts to warm, she starts to gather her Jarl's clothesand belongings, placing them into the chests along side the wall.

Opening the door after some time, when cly finished packing her Jarl's belongings, she moves to the great stoe couch, strips it of the furs and blankets. Taking them out t hang upon the clothes line to air out before the too go into a trunk. Returning back inside she fetches
[19:14]  ℂℓy (clysa.dragoone): a broom from the corner and stats to sweep outthe gathering dust, humming softly as she works.
Seeing that she was almost finished, cly went back out to fetch the furs and blankets. Folding and rolling them, she adds themto the final chests in the corner. Smiling, she nods slightly before sitting by the fireplace, awaiting for the dockhands to arrive, to let them know about the chests and what else that needs to be sent to the docks to be loaded up into the serpent.
As they came, cly heads out to see what else needs doing before they all head out that day. Turning she hurries to fetch a basket to gather up some last larmas to add to the supplies before they leave Rondvik to head to their new home and start a new beginning.
Noir Avenir.

Grinding Sa-Tarna ((19 March))

[11:08]  ℂℓy (clysa.dragoone) sighs, as steely eyes gazes up at the mid-day sun. cly had been within the garden, most of the morning, reaping several stocks of sa-tarna rods. So far, she had two bundles piled up to the side, out of the way, so none would stumble over them.

 Crouching close to he bundles, cly took some strands of fiber, binding the rods together, so it would be easier for her to carry them over by the smithy to the grinding wheel.
 Kneeling close to the wheel, cly took a few of the rods, placing them between the grinding stones. Gripping the wooden turn wheel over the slabs in her small hands, she tugs upon it, til it starts moving. Turning clockwise, she watches as the stones slowly comes together, grinding down the rods into a fine powder.
 Reversing the wheel, cly lightly brushes the ground up flour into one of the awaiting sacks at her side. Sighing softl, as she glances over at therest of the awaiting rods within the bundles, knowing her task isn't and won't be finished til dusk.

(3) First Arrival

I had no memories of how I arrived, only that I went to bed at my own home. I do recall, slowly waking up to the sound of the surf, crashing against the rocks. I could feel cool, soft sand under me asI gazed up to the night sky.
It was when I notice the three glorious moons above me. That was my first clue that I was no longer upon my world. The second clue, as  I start to stir and sit up more, was a man approaching me.
Clad in dark leather, he reminded me of the mideval vikings of ancient Earth. And when he spoke to me, I couldn't understand a word he said. I was quite frightened, kneeling there in the sand, gazing at this fierce warrior. He had drawn out his sword and pointed it at my neck, speaking only two words.
La kajira.
I took it, I was suppose to repeat them. As I did, he resheathed his sword and drew out some rope. He motioned that I should cross my wrists at my back. Doing so, he was behind me, crouching close.
I cried out, struggling when I felt him tying my hands back. As I fought him, I suddenly felt the sharp tip of a blade to my throat. I went utterly still as he finished his task of binding my wrists. Then he spoke those words to me again, pressing the blade down by my belly.
La kajira, la  kajira.
I remember crying out, over and over again, til he removed the blade. I felt a loop of another rope going about my throat. Then a sharp tug upon it. Rising to my feet, I follow this man. Following him into my new life.

Gathering Larma (15 March)

[06:01]  ℂℓy (clysa.dragoone): hums softly as she slips from the gates long before dawn, cly moves down along the path with basket in hand as she heads on down to the fire circle, she wanted to surprise all by fixing fresh baked larmas, like she used to make upon her home world,for they resemble the apples theres, the wind from the Thassa blew in between the lands, sending the scent of morning and salt as she approaches the large larma tree, smiling seeing how fresh and ripe they are as she moves to the closest branch, humming to herself as she picks them, inspecting each larma makingsure none were bruised as she places them within her basket, gazing up one in a while to see a fishing boat with Jarls and bonds passingby she waves to them before continuing her task, when her basket was full, smiling with pride she picks it up and carries her treasure back up to the gates, heading towards the bakery, se believes she would wash and set several out for any desires to have them while the rest she prepares to make te tarts and baked larma treats

Tending the Recorder's Hut (3 March)

[21:54]  clysa Dragoone crosses the Rondvik field, her arms full of parchments as she makes her way to the Recorder's hut...nudging the door open with her curvy hip she enters the darken room of the soon to be library and study to the village recorder...placing the parchments upon the desk, cly sighed s she gazes about, making her way over to the fireplace she adds a few timber to the still glowing ambers, blowing lightly she restarts the fire, making it lit up the room with a suddle light and adding warmth against the afternoon Torvaland chill...tucking a few loose strands of auburn hair from her face she starts to work on straightening the clutter of the room...grabbng pillows from the gathering ring she takes them outside, batting them together to knock out any dust that might of collected there...cly pilesthe pillowsinthe corner before dragging the rug out to teh line to hit it a few good times with the beater, knocking the dust and dirt from the wool...leaving teh rug out to air, she fetches a broom starts to sweep so she
[21:54]  clysa Dragoone: could scrub the floor before replacing the rug back down along with the pillows... moving about as the sun crosses teh sky, she dusts the shelves and wipe down each book and places each scrolled up parchment in its rightful place...going to teh desk, cly checks the inkwell seeing if its full and that there was plenty of quills on hand...nodding withsatisfaction she moes over to the small side desk for the Recorder's bond if they should ever haveone and there she starts working on a list of items to fetch from the orchard and the market when she ventures forth through the Tor'Mark...

What it Means to be a Bond

This little task, the Overseer has placed upon us, have me stop to take in all my surroundings.
The meaning to be a bond, isnt just a femlee whose belly lie beneathe the sword. It also, to me at least, means she is the strength and pride of bother, her Jarl and the Village she serves in.
Within the village, a bond does alot to keep the village thriving even while the Jarls are away. Making sure each task and simple chore are done. So the village runs smoothly and in order. For both Jarl's approval and tp please him.
And speaking of Jarls, I am proud to be collared by my Jarl. He who brought me im from my dispair as i roamed, abandon. To me, his collar about my neck is my freedom and I will neverstray from it. For he lets me be true to myself. As a slave of the north, a bond.
And I would do anything and everything to bring honor and pride, not to just the village  that i serve in, but to the man whom ive serve. My Jarl. Thank you, for making me your bond, my Jarl.

Cleaning the Healer's Cabin (2 March)

[21:10]  clysa Dragoone carries a bundle of firewood across the fields, the morning sun peeking over the snow capped mountains..smiling softly as she passes several Jarls and sister bonds as she makes her way to the Healer's cabin...bumpin the door with herhip, cly makes her way inside the suddle cabin...
[21:31]  clysa Dragoone: piling the wood by the fireplace, she checks to makesure the fire was still going and it was comfortable within...steely eyes gazes about, taking in what needs to be done to prepare for the new healer to arrive...using a strip of rep cloth, cly ties back her long auburn brown locks away from her face...smiling, she went to each of the beds, stripping the furs, blankets and linens, there she took them outside to hang upon the laundry line to air out and to be freshly batted from dust before she could remake the beds...fetching a pail by the fireplace she heads down to the well at the center of the village, to fill so she could start scrubbing floors and shelves...
humming to herself she works in the quiet cabin, dusting and scrucbbing the bookshelves, stacking the fresh parchment of papers upon the desk...sepping out with a rug beater, she smacks it a couple of good times across the furs and blankets, coughing a little as dust goes everywhere, shaking them some she takes them back inside, making the beds...as
[21:31]  clysa Dragoone: a final touch she took a pitcher and makes her way to the bakery, filling it with fresh water then takes it back up to place upon the counter with teh washing basin is, nodding with approval, cly stepped back out heading off to do her next task of the day

Preparing Baths ((28 Feb))

[02:35]  clysa Dragoone hums softly to herself an old urth tune that she havent thought of for whaa seem to be ages, cly slips from her Jarl's hut, blinking her steely eyes to adjust to the brightness of the new day sun she makes her way towards the bakery with an idea, lately with the move and all thebuilding thats been happening bythe Jarls, extra laundryneeds to be done as well as scrubbing ofthe flesh, going to the storage within the bakery, cly found several size wash basins, including two huge ones that can be used, lifting oe to its side she rolls it towards the stairs, only pausing breifly to catch her breath before continuing her task of pushing the large wooden basin up the stairs, feeling thedroplets of sweat forming as she took each step up, pausing at the top panting she looksfor thebest place for thesoon to be tub, smiles seeing a spot inthe back, turning the basin slightly she rolls it to the back just under the ladder, careful not to drop it upon her toes she lowers the basin down toteh floor, jumping back alittle as

cly preparing the tubs for the Jarls'
[02:35]  clysa Dragoone:  she finally lets go, panting she slips down toher knees and pushes it into its final place, closing her eyes she leans back against the tub to catch her breath before going back down tofetch the other basin to add asecond tub....
[02:55]  clysa Dragoone tearing a small piece of her kirtle she ties her long light auburn brown hair back from her flushed face, she rises back to her feet to make her wayback down to fetch the second basin, smiles lightly she pauses inher small task to add some firewood to the hearth to heat up some water after she gets everything set, the warth sooths her before she turns and picks up the last large wooden basin, placing it on the side she rolls it to the stairs like she did tothe other, only pausing to catch herbreath befre doing the straining task of pushing the heavy tub up the stairs, reaching the top, cly rolls the last tub over by the first, lining them up she nods to herself as she steps back to admire her work....there, now we can care for two Jarl at once....she mused to herself beore turning and heading back downthe stairs for the final part of her task, filling each tub with water, fetching a yoke and two wooden pales, cly heads towards the well at the cener of teh village, hoisting the bucket up from the well she
[02:55]  clysa Dragoone:  fills each pail and places them upon the hooks of the yoke, she makes her wayback up to the bakery, wincing a little with the yoke over her shoulders she took to the task of filling the iron kettles with the the water as she sets them to boil, cly took severalmore trips to the well and back til the two large kettles are full, taking time to rest as the water heats, she moves about he bakery with a broom, sweeping at the floor, shechecks the water several times, noting the bubbles she uses a pale to dish out teh hot water and starts to care it up the stairs to fill teh tubs, trudging several time up and down the stair planks, she starts humming again to help move her work along, smiles as she pours the last bucketful, she nods in approval as she skips back down to let the Jarls know that there are now bathing tubs ready for their use

I was very proud of lara. And I bet her Jarl is also swelling with pride. She did a grand job with the banners for the Village. Now we all can stand and show or colors with pride. Kudos to you lara.

(2) Before Gor

Sitting here with marking stick in hand, I try to recall how my life was before I came to Gor. This counter-Earth.
I remember it being simple with a repeating daily routine, that I lived for a majority of my life. Upon my home world, I guess it would be known as, since these Goreans calls it differ. They pronounce it as Urth, not Earth. But, I'm trailing off subject here.
Anyways, I was known as an American, born and raised upon a small plot of farmland, my family had owned for many years. Each day, I start out long before dawn, tending to my chores. Making sure all the animals were fed and their stalls or cages were clean.
After cleaning and freshing up, I head into town to the local diner, where I work as a waitress up til after the lunch rush. Then, I head off to school. That's right, I was a college student. My major was History, but I took a secondary major course of Dancing, that I so enjoyed doing. I felt so free and female, as my body sways sensually. It also makes me forget about the everyday stress that I tend to put up with, as I went through my routine like clockwork.
But now, all of that is in my past life, since  the cool ring of steel, rests about my throat. For as of now, here upon this world, unlike any other, a whole new life has began.
