Hello, I was a slave until know. My name isnÆt important, nobody remembers names of such people, probably you have heard about my son, he is very interesting person, but this is not important know. Maybe years or even centuries passed and this story isnÆt important to you at all, but if you want to you may read it. I want to tell about my life. My ancestors were working as slaves for 7 generations and so IÆm 8-th in a line. My life may be divided into 3 stages.
My childhood wasnÆt bright at all. Master didnÆt care a lot about slaves, we had a little bit more then a minimum. He was better then some others. At least he wasnÆt separating families; he was saying something about morale of slaves and so on. So my parents brought me up. But I knew my future. Nobody here knew other life. As my father was saying there was no means for escape, especially if you consider that we live on a planet that is far away from any main systems.
So I grew up and entered a second stage of my life. I was doing construction works, thanks to that I know how to read and write because I should be able to read blueprints. Very soon I got used to my work. So I didnÆt mind doing it every day. My work wasnÆt that bad, if blocks are put right there will be no punishment and I was satisfied with such position. Then I met her, she was from cookers stuff on our site. She was beautiful like a spring flower. So I did everything I could and she became my wife. And a little bit later our son was born. We gave him as much love as we could. He is very stubborn guy. He was trying to change anything, he tried to be the best of the best just to be recognized, probably, it helped him after.
And suddenly the other stage of life began not so long ago. Empress Jamyl made her announcement and my son was set free. Of course master wasnÆt willing to set anybody free in the beginning, but when he heard about Kor-Azor fleet he made up his mind and my son was released at last, because he was from 9-th generation. Somewhy he decided to take Interbus offer and go to Gallente Federation. He said that his skills would be most useful there. I havenÆt heard from him for some time. As I heard afterwards he was searching for opportunity in Gallente Federation. Then some Intaki politician found him in a crowd, in fact he was making a very good speech, so that politician hired him. And now he is on his first vacation. So he decided to go back and buy his parents out.
At this moment instead of sleeping IÆm sitting here and carving this message on some faraway construction block. Probably nobody will ever see this message, but I want to leave some mark on this planet. IÆm old, so master wasnÆt at all against selling me to my son, a bunch of ISK is better then two old slaves, especially if you consider the price which he got. Tomorrow I will be flying to Gallente Federation in Interbus Shuttle, it is really happy reunion of family. And probably my father was right; there is no escape here. However I have a permission to go elsewhere now. Even better, I donÆt need any permissions, IÆm free at last.
