	~~tba~~		Twenty years of working for [[Abacaneeser]] has sent her to the markets, to alchemists for bartering, to shady places for information, all with a tight-lipped smile and great humility. While the voodoo teachings of her mother slowly fade from memory, Una remains confident (perhaps a little too confident) that she can most certainly conjure up the most formidable collection of hexes against anyone who seeks to harm her employer. Known for being a bit nosy, Una has a tendency to get in over her head as her mouth might occasionally move faster than she realizes. The townspeople find her a bit of a kook, a mystic, a strange foreigner with bizarre rituals, but she couldn't care less.

As the months progressed, Lea became ill and could no longer work enough to make ends meet. Una and her brothers became desperate, as the [[Syndicate]], the local government, was sure to come claim the debts the family had accrued.

			One night, when Lea was working, a large storm set in. The wind and rain were so fierce that Una feared the home would collapse. Without the advice of her mother, Una gathered her brothers and ran towards the inland jungle, to seek shelter from the giant trees. As they neared the edge of the jungle, a troop of Syndicate thugs paroling the jungle outskirts bore down on their shivvering group and siezed them all, tying them one to another by hemp rope.

			"Ah, Bandulu, nah. Come wit' a nah an' we dan bun ya!" (You thiefs! You're coming with us, and we're going to [burn]kill you!) said the largest of the thugs.

			Una struggled, but to no avail. Her brothers wailed in fear and panic sunk in. She found the rough flesh of a finger or perhaps an ear and bit as hard as she could. Suddenly a blow to the head silenced the commotion and all struggling stopped.

			Una woke up the next morning bound in ropes by her hands. As she looked around, she found herself in an outdoor jail cell with others in a similar plight. She kicked and screamed while onlookers cowered in fear. Not realizing the consequence for causing a scene, she was swiftly kicked by a Syndicate jailkeeper. He kicked her repeatedly until she thought her ribs had been broken. Finally it stopped, and she doubled over, sobbing silently.

			For days she was continually beaten, raped, and starved under the watch of the Syndicate. With no news of her brothers, her demeanor grew dark, and she began to feel despair. One sunny day, the jail door opened, and all of its inhabitants were bound together and marched out into the muddy street. Local merchants and citizens gathered near as a drunken member of the [[Syndicate]] shouted with slurred speech, "Hey nah, see it, sistren an' bredren a Lanka! 'Ere be day Bandulu fer ya all pleasure. Skettle mon, dat. An' now who go with who?" (Here they are, ladies and gentlemen of Lanka, this group of criminals is here for your pleasure, and cheaply to. Now who will buy?)

			Within an instant, Una was thrown down on the ground as the drunken man slobbered over her. His words were incomprehensible, but she could feel the bottoms of his bare foot standing on her butt, rolling her on the ground. An excited crowd threw out shouts and curses as each of the prisoners were bought by rich merchants. A heavy, drunk pirate staggered over to her, still face down in the mud. He pulled her up by her hair and inspected her teeth.

			"This whore will serve me well! She's mine."

Shocked by the horrible events that had come to pass, Una stood up, wiped off what mud she could, and walked slowly over to her new caretaker. He smiled at her with a strange familiarity that she had never encountered. Something about this man was extraodinary.
