It's actually a bit comforting to hear Riza speak so openly like that for the Submissives. A few years ago she may have thought that she deserved it... living in a place flooding with disgusting water filled with dirt and bugs. Eating nothing but moldy, hard bread and rotting food that left her more hungry than before.

Now, though, she was a bit more spoiled. Sebastian's and Baldroy's cooking more than enough to make her smile every time she ate. Sometimes she still teared up a little at how fortunate she was. She could manage moldy bread again, of course, but she at least hopes that she will at least have a bed to lay her head.

"People are resilient... It's a bit scary how much they can put up with when they have to. To be honest, I'm not as worried as I thought I'd be."
