Vlack the slavetrader

The rocking of the boat made Mai sick. Her country was landlocked and she had never even seen the sea until yesterday. The Aleki had marched the slaves they had captured across the small country of Allero. Mai was covered in dirt and sweat. Her feet were torn open from being marched barefoot. Her clothes had been taken from her and she was been given a cloth sack to cover herself.

There were chains around her ankles and wrists and they linked her to a row of other girls in the bowels of the Aleki ship. Mai looked around and once again confirmed that all the prisoners were girls. Not one single man had been taken captive. They had all been killed. Mai felt fresh tears spring up in her eyes.


Three days they had marched without food, two days on the ocean without food, five days. Five days ago she had been safe and happy with her father. Just barely five days ago life had been good. Mai felt the ship rock, they had landed somewhere. An Aleki guard came down into the hold and barked orders at the girls. None of them could understand exactly what he was saying, but they got the gist of it.

They followed him up the stairs, despair on every face, a tear in every eye. On the deck there was a short, fat little man with a little table spread out in front of him. Mai could see scrolls and charts laid out on the table and wondered what was going on. Mai was pushed from behind by an Aleki, he wanted her to move forward. She moved grudgingly, joining the rest of the line she was chained to.

“Hello my dears,” the Fat man called out to them in their own tongue. “I am Vlack, and you all are to be sold in the next slave fair here in Aleka.”

Mai heard gasps around her. There was only one kin of slave women could be in Aleka. Mai shuddered as she thought of the fate of her poor countrywomen, to be sold as sex slaves in a foreign country. She felt more tears as she thought of herself being sold. She looed away from Vlack and saw the glint of lust in the eyes of one of the Aleki. He was staring at a priestess, a young woman not much over twenty. She used to work in the castle, Mai thought absently.

The Aleki began to steer the girls towards one half of the deck and waved their arms about until Vlack told the girls they were to sit down. He seemed exasperated by the Aleki, but the value of the slaves made him keep trading with them. Vlack yelled to one of the Aleki and a moment later, the first girl at the front of Mai’s chain was released and dragged forward towards Vlack.

She struggled and tried to push her feet against the wooden boards of the deck, but the Aleki dragging her were too strong and she quickly found herself standing in front of Vlack. He asked her a few questions and scribbled a bit on his scroll before nodding to the two Aleki guards who then dragged her back to the line and took the second girl.

Of course, thought Mai bitterly, they need to know a bit about us so we can be sold faster. They sat out in the hot sun as the Aleki and Vlack made their way through the lines. Finally they grabbed the terrified woman next to Mai and dragged her up. Mai watched and took a moment to observe Vlack he was quite fat and starting bald, he stood only about waist high compared to the Aleki, all of which seemed taller than any of her people. Vlack was red and sweating, he looked like a roast pig. They finsihed questioning the woman and brought her back, next it was Mai’s turn.

She went willingly with the guards, nothing was to be gained from resisting except splinters in her feet. she was brought to a halt in front of Vlack’s little table and he peered up at her in the hot sun.

“Now she’s a pretty one, I bet, if she was cleaned up right,” he muttered. “Name?” he asked in an automatic, monotonous tone.

“Mai,” she replied.

“Age? Weight? Height?”

“Sixteen, not much over a hundred pounds, bit over 5 foot,” she replied. She had never paid much attention to things like that. Vlack looked her up and down and made a few more notes on his paper.

“You a virgin?” Mai stood in shock for a moment. Such things weren’t discussed by civilized people, and certainly not between women and men. Vlack stared up at her and repeated the question, this time louder.

“Y-yes,” Mai finally choked out.

“Ever done hard work?”

“Wh-what?” the question before it still had her shocked.

“Worked in a field, farm, ya know, anything like that?” he asked her as if he was explaining things to a child.

“No,” she said quietly.

“Alright, take her back,” he realized he had spoken in the wrong language and barked the same thing in the Aleki language at the guards.

Mai sat back down and glanced at the next girl. She seemed resolute and calm, but Mai knew she’d break sooner or later. All the ones who seemed tranquil and together eventually fell, they wound up crying the loudest.

Mai sat and squinted in the bright light out past Vlack the slave trader and over the side of the ship. She could see the bustling town just beyond it, her new home, maybe. But more importantly, she could see the ocean, wild and free.
