black hair swirl around her shoulders until they join together to form great black chain with an enormous flail dangling from the end of it. The whole scene is terrifying, but I am powerless when two of the Blind Priestesses take my arms. I have known the blind priestesses ever since I came here at the age of eight to be groomed for the potentate. They are young, neither is more than twenty-five. Mirelle has fair hair and Chasa, long dark hair that falls almost to her waist. Once they have pulled me down to the water’s edge, they slip off their golden sandals and step into the water. They walk down the steps until they are up to their knees and then motion for me to join them. I stand hesitantly on the step just above the surface of the black water. Its darkness and depth disturbs me. When I first came to live in the towers of the reverent I remember being told that these waters reach down, deep into the center of the earth. It is through them that the terrifying Goddess Ladlaine enters the world from her watery underground lair. As I have grown older my faith has wavered from time to time, but now, standing here in the seemingly impossible room with the braziers floating above me, shedding an eerie greenish light over the unsettlingly lifelike statue, I have no doubts. My belief it as strong as it has ever been. My two Blind Priestesses slip their heavy velvet robes off their shoulders and stand before me, naked and beckoning. I do not want to go in, but my mistress puts a strong hand on my shoulder and pushes me down until I am standing in the water. It is not cold like I thought it would be, but warm and comfortable. A faint sweet scent rises from the water, it soothes me and eases my ascent. Mirelle slips a hand under my linen shift and begins to massage my budding breast. A fire begins to spread through my already aching pussy as she toys with the tightness of my small nipples. Together my priestesses take hold of my linen shift and pull it over my head. Until the day of my reaping I will wear only rough fabrics, but when I am sent to my masters I will be dressed in rich satin underclothing and a fine gown and cloak. It will please my masters to undress me and it is in their pleasure that the gods will feel pleasure. The dark haired priestess Chasa takes my other nipple in her mouth, as her hand reaches between my legs, it creeps up my thigh just to the edge of my cunt and the anticipation of it forces a small moan from my lips. My mistress frowns behind us, “Take her to the alter to be cleansed,” she says in a stern voice. The two girls giggle, they know that tomorrow they will loose me forever and they want to enjoy me before they do. Together we slip fully into the water. My hair has turned from a pale yellow to a rich gold when my head reemerges from the surface. My priestesses each take an arm and together they swim, with me held afloat between them. I was never allowed to leave the towers of the reverent so I never learned to swim. In fact I have not been submerged in water this way since I was seven and I fell into a pond near my home. The priestesses will sometimes leave the towers and go down to the river to swim, so they are powerful swimmers. I watch their long lithe bodies moving through the water and think of how Mirelle told me sometimes they would meet men at the river and allow the men to pleasure them two at a time. I picture it, Chasa with her dark hair rocking slowly back and forth on top of a muscled youth from the village, while his hard hot cock thrusts within her and he groans with the tightness of her wet pussy. Mirelle lies above his mouth and he draws circles with his tongue around her deep red clit. In my minds eye he takes it in his mouth and begins to suck hard on her nub, as my fair-haired priestess moans and reaches down to grip the hair on his bare chest. The priestesses, like me have been instructed in the arts of the flesh and like me on their nineteenth birthday they were
