-SLAVE SILKS-
Silk |
Description |
Yellow |
Tavern owned slaves or Camp slaves, can be used by Any
Masters of camp, if the Leader of the Camp is shown great respect
in return. Yellow silks cannot yet
train others, and are still in training
themselves, but to the stage where they
can "practice" that training and
improve on it. Practice in the sense
they can serve food and drink, improving
on their skills, and to be "used" by a
Master of GDC means they may serve in the
furs with ONLY a Master of GDC, None
Other without permission of the Ubar or
their personal Master.
Too, Ina wore a snatch of diaphanous yellow silk....in
most paga taverns, of course, the girls are silked.
Usually it is only in the cheapest and lowest of taverns
that the girls serve naked....Slave silk, and certainly
that sort which is commonly worn in paga taverns and
upon occasion in brothels, when the girls are permitted
clothing there, is generally diaphanous.
