Amora blinked, slightly confused at Drinian's 'threat'. Most men would have whipped her for not getting them a decent meal, but he- She gave a slight nod, following one of the servants to the kitchen.<br/><br/>The smell that came from one of the cooking pots was enough to make the young slave girl cover her nose.<span style="font-style: italic">What on earth are they cooking, a corpse?</span>she thought, lifting up the cover of a pot. A wooden spoon rapped her knuckles, making her drop the cover out of surprise. "Who are you?" A snooty, larger woman looked at her in disgust. "And why are you in here of all places? You look like you should be feeding swine." Amora opened her mouth to speak, when another female servant quickly explained, "She's Master Drinian's new servant girl. He just bought her."<br/><br/>The woman merely snorted, looking down at Amora like she was filth under foot. "Why he sent her<span style="font-style: italic">here</span>of all places..." she muttered, pointing her large spoon at the slave. "Can you cook?" When she nodded, she was put in charge of making a stew. Under the instruction of the larger woman, unfortunately. She cut the carrots and potatoes with that cook breathing down her neck, though Amora looked calm under the pressure.<br/><br/>The stew was nearly done, when Amora made a mistake. She dropped some garlic into the pot, stirring it, when the woman smacked her over the head with the spoon. The slave girl fell to the ground, putting a hand on the bump. "What are yo-" "Are you trying to poison him?!" The woman roared, looming over her angrily, "I never said to put that in there, you're going out of line!"<br/><br/>"No, I just thought-" "You just<span style="font-style: italic">thought</span>! Oh what a lovely world you must live in, that a slave girl believes she can do what she wants and think how she pleases!" The woman mocked her, Amora felt tears forming in her eyes. The other servants looked on, they didn't do anything. The slave girl grew tense, trying not to fight back.<span style="font-style: italic">I can't go back there again, I can't get sent back. He'll kill me after this...</span>
