Re: Concubine Seeks New Position
It could be largely environmental too. On the Ka's world, she was treated quite well. All her needs met, not having to do any of the drudge work and respected (as much as concubine's were).
Then she's ripped out of this and sent to Earth. With Vitus, who spent most of his time working on spells etc, paid very little attention to her, expected her to do all the cooking and cleaning and other housework of the slum of a room he lived in and denied her to oppurtinity to do her job properly. Oh, and the almost being killed all the time and being forced to wear clothes. She was treated like dirt and not the lady that she is and she responded in like.
Of course, she also got a crash course on women's rights and the like from Felicity and her sister. And TV.
Now she's with The Spectre, she *is* treated like a lady. After all, he even bothered to give her a proper *name*, which is something the Ka and Vitus never bothered to do.
