Emotions Legend
[quote][b]Solenis (Feb 13, 2005 11:36 a.m.):[/b] Saul was relieved when she got up and left. It meant he didn't have to look at her anymore and it saved him the trouble of replying. He had heard of women who did not wish to be married, even a few who had run away because of it, but if they were not killed they came home far quieter than when they had left. They were not punished, merely puzzled over, and they were harder to find husbands for. He did not understand what slavery had to do with marriage. In the mountains it was the woman's family who bought the man with her dowry, a man to take care of the woman and provide for her. It was a responsibility not to be taken lightly, and any woman who shunned the protection and safety a husband provided suffered for her foolishness. Malorik had some skill with her swords, but she would never be a man, so what did it matter? She did not like men but she wanted to act like one. If she survived she would be too old to be married in a few years, and with no husband and no children she would die unmourned and alone. It seemed sad and pointless, and Saul shook his head to clear it and stood to go collect his meal.[/quote]
