Subject: the death of a female

Date: Tue, 23 Jan 2001 21:47:20 -0600

You all speak so nobely of a lifestyle that was once more precious me than breath. Yet, none of you speak of the inner tortures and gut-wrenching death of a female who has been freed. To some it may seem funny, silly to consider, and to others who have not considered the psychological death of a female it may seem trite. The only reason this body lives in agonizing hope of his return. It has been 20 years that we have shared, most of which were experienced while we were in the company of others. There was always a need to be who we were, and we could only do so together. As time progressed, as my slavery internalized so deeply, I could have never thought it possible that I would ever be anything but his. Then, with one fell swoop, I was freed. He claimed he needed a friend more than a female. I was to be his friend. My mind is still in turmoil and this freedom was bestowed upon me over 3 months ago. I have died many times, in many ways. I have even considered killing myself, for there is no greater honor in death than to die so that my master may live. I was becoming a liability, a desire too great for him to enjoy privately. Others began to question, to voice opposition. His life was made difficult because of my presence in it. A friend. I die every night, a thousand times. Because of who and what we are by Eathly standards, we cannot be together. What does a slave do when the only touch she begs for is one for the touch of death? Please, think of the females you now train, if they are truly Gorean in mind, soul and thought, every word you utter masters, is the word of life or death to the female at your feet....

From beyond the grave...
She who has no name

To whom it may concern;

I am interested in joining chat- and role-playing sites concerned with Gor, but am relatively new to these things. I don't know which sites would be best. I was wondering if perhaps you could e-mail me with information pertaining to chat and role-playing sites. It would be greatly appreciated.

Many thanks,
Mike Herndon.
