[00:14]  waseya ~watches You pulls the basket of apples from under your wagon...moving to You...kashna may boy help You?
[00:15]  Aphris: "these are old apples, I want to dry them in the sun, so they can be used as travel food for the outriders when the go on a long raid"she gives the basket to Waseya, a slave boy sneaking around camp now and then. "you roam a round a lot here, I know you are send by your masters to guard Nadi, But I want yu to work too, go wash these aples in the lake!"
[00:16]  Aphris: i want make picture of you at the water
[00:17]  waseya: ~the boys takes the heavy basket of apples from You....~ han Kashna ~he lifts the basket wiht his strong arms and moves to the lake~
[00:20]  waseya: ~takinthe basket to the lake...knowing Kashna is watching him intently....he tips the basket aloowing the apples to roll into the water~
[00:23]  waseya: ~the apples float and bob on the water's surface...waseya takes each apple washes it with his hands, looks each over before returning each to the basket~
[00:25]  Aphris watches how the red Savage boy washes her apples i the fresh water of the lake
[00:25]  waseya: ~finally the last apple is washed....he places it in the basket....rising from his knees , he carries the basket back to You~
[00:26]  waseya: the apples are clean Kashna
[00:28]  Aphris: bring the apples under the wagon, I will order another slave to cut them small, i can't have you a kajirus, using a knife here, to dangerous
[00:29]  waseya: ~curious about the knife comment but the boy obeys regardless~ yesKashna.... lifting the basket he moves back to Your wagon and slides them underneath
[00:30]  Aphris ok, you may sleep under my wagon now, guard those apples sleep ligthly
[00:31]  waseya: boy is grateful kashna...~he crawls under Your wagon next to the apple basket....curls up and drifts off to sleep~ ka dish day kashna
[00:33]  Aphris looks how the slave goes asleep in the grass under her wagon, thinking he is secure but does not know its just a game for her, she could collar him any moment, since the whole camp is surrounded by patrols of outriders, and at night by herd sleen. So he has nowhere to go, only when she allows it.

 [13:19]  Aphris goes under her wagon and takes the basket with washed apples. She also takes a blanket and spreads it at the grass. She places the basket at the blanket ad takes the first apple in her hand. Her other hand has a razorsharp quiva
[13:21]  Aphris starts cutting the spple in small pieces, quickly her skilled hand changes the orb f the apple into small half moon like parts. The apple core she thrws at the grass, to be collected later as add on for the slave gruel. After finishing the first apple, she gives the crescents to Nadi "spread them out over the blanket Nadi, so the spring sun can dry them"
[13:25]  Nadi smiles settling next to to the Mistress takes you ulo from her pouch....lays it down....then as the Mistress requests starts to arrange the apple slices so the warm bright sun will dry them quickly
[13:27]  Aphris gives some apples to Nadi to cut with her small knive. She herself takes some to and continues making crescents which she throws near the pieces Nadi has laid on the blanket

[13:28]  Nadi hears a small colorful spring bird in the tree above them singing a sweet song.
[13:31]  Aphris sees how the orking together on the chore, is making the basket empty in a rapid speed, she is satisfied that this work goes so easy and that soon, after a few sunny days, the outriders can have some extra supply of food at there travels
[13:31]  Nadi's full lips form a happy smile taking the juicy apple from Mistress, she starts to cut away the skin....then cuts the flesh of the apple as Mistress did arranging the pieces....on the blanket
[13:32]  Nadi feels the warmth of the sun and the gentle breeze from across the plain....her hair moving across her back .....she starts to hum a happy song she learned as a child an continues slicing the apples...
[13:34]  Nadi the apples will be pleasing to the out riders I am sure Mistress. The crop appears to have been good this season
[13:35]  Aphris sees the bottom of the basket already, she throws some of the fruit to nadi and handles her heavy quiva on them, she compares the quiva with the small knife of nadi, and understands why girls are allwed such. It hardly capable of wounding a man. She takes the last apple and cuts that in 4 quarters. she removes the core and give 2 quarters to Nadi "1 quarter for you, kajira, and the other for eyour master Hakimba at his breakfast tomorrow"She sticks one quarter in her mout and throws the other near the head of Waseya who is soring under the wagon and has helped in this task too.
[13:39]  Nadi thank you Mistress....smiling broadly she tucks her Master's piece in her camisk close to her heart. Wiping her ulo on her camisk skirt she slides it back into it's pouch for washing later....takes a small bite of the delicious apple. MMMMM is very sweet Mistress. The outriders will be pleased....taking a bite chewing
[13:42]  Aphris chews on the apple quarter, Then stands up "working with the quiva goes faser seemingly. My aples are finished. I go take a nap i my wagon"
[13:42]  Nadi yes Mistress I wish you soft pillows to rest on. I will better arrange the apples slices
[14:55]  Nadi hears the trill of a kite smiling up into the tree as a small flock of jard land. nadirah checks making sure all the apple cresents are laying flat....looks up into the tree shaking her finger...."you little feathered creatures stay away now"....chuckles as the flock of jard fly away.
[15:03]  Nadirising on slender well sculpted legs nadirah turns to a small tree of sweet smelling larma blossoms...breaking off a piece she sniffs the wonderful fragrance sticking it behind her ear. Breaking several more branches she weaves belt of the intoxicating smell an places it around her hips...surely her Master will find her pleasing to his smelling senses.....and with a flower in her hair....her heart leaps an her slave belly quivers.
[15:05]  Nadi turns on the ball of her tiny foot singing an dancing her way across the ground to her Master's wagon...to lay his furs out in the fresh spring air an sunshine as she awaits his return.
