She nods, taking a small bite of fish.

She sighed.

(I really dont feel that anything happening. I trust you, but this is kinda . . . frustrating. When I try to do something fun, like make iron tools in the hopes of gaining praise and a new chance for this past, but then its shot down. I understand why, but its still upsetting.)

(Yeah there really isn't anything Inyosi can do to make the dudes like her.)


Something in her mind tells her this is Ikati, the lady Ilanga mentioned earlier. "Are you alright?" She asks gently.

(So what do I do?)

*not really.*

(Get to know the ladies. Quite frankly Umlilo isn't an important character he's just there to be a jerk, it's the 4 gals, Inyosi included, that are important)


"Do you want to talk about it?" She gently rests one hand on her shoulder. Her instincts tell her that this is Inyosi's mother figure, though the way Ikati acts makes that clear already.

(Will do)

*its just. . . Life is so hard right now. I wish it would change so the girls could be free and happy.*

She nods in understanding and sympathy. "I often feel the same way. But there's not much to do about it, I'm afraid. The nearest village is 3 days' walk away, and they're far crueler than this one. The only one with equality that I can think of is 17 days' away, and it very well may have been destroyed by now."

She nodded sadly. *the thing is, theres only 4 girls here. And theres a bunch of rude guys who made the girls work without rights. It doesnt feel fair, especially since women are the reason the guys exist.*

She chuckles dryly. "I'm afraid they ignore people who point out that obvious fact, Inyosi."

She nodded, sighing. *women really arent respected here, huh?*she said sadlyx
