Temirburg's Fall

The young man was suspended in the air, helplessly gripped by her meaty paws, dubbed". He squirmed and squealed helplessly against the soft, furry paws squeezing his throat.

"Spies get enslaved and sold, you know, to places they can never escape from." Sirocco kept taunting him, intending on scaring him shitless. His eyes grew, and he started stuttering as she went on.

"But... you look young and cute...it would be a shame for you to waste your life in a mine pit or a slave farm with cruel Thorn overseers...So sad... never to see home again all your life... even mamono looking down on you..." She put a look of concern, caressing his cheek. "You just wasted your life."

"P-please...just..." He started to weep and blubber. A good sign. Maybe the young man could be reformed.

The manticore smiled sweetly and nodded.

"But, on the other hand, if you tell me EVERYTHING, right now... I could speak to the constable on your behalf, saying you were just a pickpocket and not a spy. And use your information to get promoted myself. So... Why were you..." She started ruffling through his loot bag, freezing in an instant.

The surprisingly tender treatment of female slaves hint at mind control or sexual coercion on the part of mamono. It also results in the greatest stepping stones towards their domination: Every woman under their yoke will give birth to servile boys and girls and may become mamono themselves. This is a war over the human woman's reproduction control, as sad and blunt this may be: we fight over human women's wombs as a resource. - Slade, Human Alchemist,

In the name of Allfather, the merciful, the wise, the creatures known as "Nisa al Mahluqat" shall not set foot here, not even as slaves, not even those that are consenting to serve. The owner will be repaid to free the slaves and banish them, and shall be banished together if he has made a Mahluqat spawn with her. Such is my will, for I am a servant of Allfather, and to Him We shall return. - Sultan Rashid

Your breasts are for feeding boys and turn grown men into boys. -Common mamono motherly advice.
