Cora allowed herself to be picked up... she flinched a bit as she was groped, but didn't mind too much.  The woman's hands were strong, but gentle now.  Cora mad little 'eep' and 'oop' noises as she was squeezed in various places.<br/><br/>"20?  um, I suppose." she said.  Although she had never been able to keep track of the years, she did know what a birthday feast was, and she did know that she had never really had any.<br/><br/>"If I was free?" she asked, her voice trembling a bit.  "I...  I don't know miss." She stopped then, and truly thought about it, she thought about the few times she had been out in the street.  So many people, so many merchants, so many buildings and houses and soldiers.  Cora shuddered.  "I.. I guess...  I would be afraid.  I'm sorry, I'm sure that's not what you wanted to hear... but...  I've been out there... and...   there is just so much ... and everything costs money.. and I have so little.  I... I think I would run and hide."<br/><br/>Cora looks down at her naked toes.   she doesn't even have clothes.  What could she do?<br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Cora in the cell</div><div class="spoiler_body">(http://elliquiy.com/elluiki/images/9/9c/Cora_inside_cell.jpg)</div></div>
