⨊ saw that most of the children appeared poor or lost and didn't seem to have any abilities. Their families either sold them or they were kidnapped or ran away from home. ⨊ saw that they were taken to an abandoned, broken down building in the middle of the forest. It had an underground cell that already had children in it, that were about the same age.
⨊ was put in an empty cell along with the kids that were brought with her. ⨊ saw that the existing children's eyes were white which meant that they were blinded. And they didn't seem to say anything except, make eerie noises every now and then. Which proved their voice had been ruined. ⨊ assumed that their hearing, as well as their movements, had been ruined.It was a regular thing for slave traders to do since the buyers liked to remain unseen to their toys.
The place where ⨊ was left appeared to be the drop-off and pick-up site. They would be kept there for a few days until they were taken to the real trading site. The kids that were just brought with her, were taken away in batches. And when they got back after a couple of hours,their eyes were the same as the existing children. They were dumped within the others cells with those children.
⨊ decided to destroy the site once she saw the items being used since that is what caught her eye. Besides those children were already damaged and wouldn't be able to function normally. The rings that were put on the kids were only sold in specific high-level realms and were forbidden from being sold outside a particular society. Which suggested that it was being sold outside the group. Or someone inside the group funded this little project.
