The Slave Market of Thesalie (Part-2)

Visiting the slave market did make Alexander a bit emotional, bringing up many lost memories.

Once he too was inside those fences.

And there was once a time he would have given almost anything to be just a freeman.

Not even a citizen, but a freeman.

Bnt by the machinations of fate, somehow he had become someone who these people coming to buy the slaves could only look up in awe and reverence. 

Far from a weak slave, now he was perhaps one of the most powerful men in not just Adhanaia, but in the whole region, and the realization of so made Alexander a bit wistful.

Oh, how the table had turned.

Alexander thought about such as he walked along the narrow lanes flanked by penned enclosures on both sides, where the men were being bought and sold.

These men had mostly listless faces and the reason for it was not only because they were about to be made slaves.
