After half an hour, the cleaning staff were told to leave their quarters and report near the backside of the fortress where their ID car would be checked and their duty would be assigned.
Naturally, Emily and Ben responded to the call and followed the other cleaners, along with Richard and Laila.
They were moving in a pattern, four people in each column and four columns in total. Emily and Ben were beside two other women who were walking towards the fortress.
There was something common among all these servants, and that was their emotionless demeanor. They neither chatted nor showed any apprehension. And Laila knows the reason.
These servants are recruited to serve the masters however they like. Some of them were physically abused, some were told to clean the filth of dead bodies, and some were stolen away from their loved ones.
