Central Cylinder

Private Audience Chamber

"I was kneeling in what appeared to be a private audience chamber. It must have been well within the cylinder. It was lit by lamps. The hangings were scarlet and magnificent. There was a dais a few feet before me, and on this dais, resplendent in robes of concealment, beautifully veiled, on a curule chair, there sat a regal figure. I was speechless.
" ‘We await without,' said the leader of the guard. He then, with his men, withdrew.
"The hood which had been removed from me lay to one side. The message tube, with its cap, attached by its tiny thong, was still about my neck.
"I looked timidly to the woman on the curule chair. It seemed she did not notice me. She read the letter in her hands over and over, seemingly avidly.
"The chain leashes attached to the leash rings on the metal collar I wore were fastened to rings on each side of me. I was held in place. I could not rise to my feet."
"The woman on the curule chair looked down upon me. I put my head down to the floor. The message tube then, on its thong, was on the floor as well.
" ‘Is that how you kneel before a free woman?' she asked.
" ‘Forgive me, Mistress!' I wept. ‘The guards were about!'
" ‘They are not about now," she said, ‘and even if they were, it is I who am Mistress here, not they.'
" ‘Forgive me, Mistress!' I begged.
" ‘You will kneel before me demurely," she said.
" ‘Yes, Mistress,' I said. You can now well imagine how modestly and humbly, and demurely, I then knelt before her."
"I warned you about that sort of thing," I reminded her.
"Am I to be beaten?" she asked.
"No," I said. "Such knee positions become almost instinctive in a female slave, and I would not wish to complicate your training by punishing you for having failed to alter them in a particular case. I do not want your dispositions to respond to become too complex, or inconsistent."
"Thank you, Master," she said.
"Too," I said, "the guards were men, and had been present."
"Yes, Master!" she said.
"But for your own sake, when you are before free women," I said, "I would advise you to be alert to such matters."
"Yes, Master!" she said.  MAGICIANS OF GOR-, (25) Pages 361-362
