"Yes," he answers, shoulders dropping in relief at Damen's command. Erasmus
thinks that in another life, he would have made a fine Master but he cannot
imagine he makes a proper slave at all. He is unsure what to make of a land
that provides slaves with coin and shelter but he doesn't dare question it,
so grateful to have someone taking some measure of care for him.
"Do you also live in this same dwelling?" he asks, unable to keep the hope
out of his voice. "Are there other slaves that can teach me the protocol of
this place? I must find a new Master but I...I would not mind it if it were
not the Regent. I found it difficult to endure in the way they wanted of
me."
