The first prospective buyer approached the alcove, having been waved through by the guards, immediately followed by a second man hailing from a different family.  The two clearly knew each other, however, pausing in front of the first alcove to chat with each other about very close to nothing.  Next to them, a half-clothed woman wept quietly in her alcove, which neither man noticed until they'd finished catching up.  When it was noticed, the first man simply sneered and shook his head, the second smiling and asking rhetorically "how hard a worker do you think that one is?"  The first chuckled mirthlessly.<br/><br/>Then they approached the alcove where Kaya was kneeling.  "Well, this is interesting," said the second man.  The first man stood in front of her, looking down at her for a moment before pulling her to her feet, looking her in the eyes.  He grabbed her chin, tilting it to each side as the second one looked to the overseer and asked "is she part of a package?"  When the man answered that she wasn't, the second man seemed all but shocked.  "What is it that makes her valuable enough to sell on her own?  Is it being of weaker bloodlines, or the fact that she's almost infertile?"<br/><br/>"I doubt she's fertile at all," responded the first man.  "Well, true, but that's not entirely a bad thing," his companion shot back, earning him a smile.  The first man pulled at her tunic, exposing her breasts, cupping them appraisingly before pinching down hard on her nipple and watching her reaction.<br/><br/>He turned to the overseer.  "How's her Greek?"  After some shifting around the man responded.  "She understands basic concepts."<br/>"So only mostly a barbarian?"<br/>"She will learn."<br/>"Just in time to die of old age."<br/><br/>Smirking, the second man butted in.  "Planning on a lot of conversations with her?"  "No."<br/><br/>The first man turned back to face Kaya.  "Turn around."  He twirled his finger to indicate.  Once her back was to him, he jerked her tunic to the side and unhooked the chain holding her hands up, then pushed down on her head.  "Bend over," he said, keeping a hand on her hip so she didn't lower her whole body.  "Now, this part isn't as bad," he said, rubbing his hand over her bare ass, grabbing it and slapping it.  The second man watched, and joked to the overseer.  "If you can teach her to walk around like that full time, you might get a decent price out of him."
