"There are few things a female slave fears more than a free female. Female
slaves, so helpless in their collars, so much at the mercy of any free person
whatsoever, live in terror of such females, for they know that they despise and
hate them." ~ Mercenaries, pg. 328
It is sometimes hard to
understand the hatred of the free female for her imbonded sister. It has to
do…with the venomous jealousy of a woman who has taken an unhappy, path, a road
commended to her by many but one which she discovered leads only to her ultimate
frustration, misery and lack of fulfillment. No woman is truly happy until she
occupies her place in the order or nature. ~ Mercenaries, pg. 219
