The harem is steadily growing... day by day more beautiful young women are joining the royal harem. As a result, problems were bound to grow -- like a thorny weed. The threats hail from the undead, and one constantly drunk slaver. A few girls have been attacked while one rapped... knowing the threats and dangers there are still girls foolish enough to go out uncovered! I even caught a senior concubine! I fear one of the girls will end up kidnapped -- or worse. Sadly I am starting to see why the past Bas Kadin left the harem. It's starting to feel like... too much.
I am thankful that our Bas Gedikli, Stella is willing to follow all of the harem rules. I am thinking about asking Seren to allow us to carry weapons. Small dual daggers... something elegant. Or... at the very least, asking if Stella can also serve as a harem guard. We need to keep the harem safe, to protect the women within at all costs.
On a personal note... I grow rather tired of hearing about the undead attacks. The Countess Page has been attacked Three.. maybe four times sense I entered the harem. I believe one of those times she ended up rapped... the others all included some sort of brutal assault. Recently, one of those creatures broke into the harem... trying to get to her! It surely sends a bad message when someone of a high rank can get kidnapped so easily and so often. And now, because of the attack, the harem girls are fearful for their lives... I am not sure what to do -- which makes me nervous.
As I look out at the waves... I cannot help but contemplate leaving this land of burning sand. Even thought I will never admit this to anyone, I miss the waters... the feeling of freedom. I can only hope this need to wonder passes. Tomorrow is another day. I can only hope it is a day of peace...
