CHORES


All slaves are expected to help with chores even those that are wearing a private kolar

  • Vulo eggs need to be gathered and brought to the serving wagon for the daily service. Wash them and place them in the baskets in the chilling pit.


  • Soiled clothing, rags, towels, etc. gathered, washed and replaced.


  • Fruit and vegtables checked daily for freshness. Toss the spoiled fruits and vegtables to the Verr.


  • Clean the serving wagon, wash floors and counters and do the dishes. The chilling pit needs to be cleaned and the floors need to be wet down to fill the troughs that run beneath it as this keeps the cooler cold. Use the barrel of water in the corner for this, but make sure it has been refilled for fresh drinking.


  • Scraps gathered and fed to the sleens, larl, and kailla.
    Feeding the animals (kaiilas, sleens, milk bosk, etc.) This is pretty much putting hay into their feeding troughs, though the sleen and kaiila need raw meat (check the serving wagon for scraps of meat and other refuse).


  • Bosk milked so W/we have a continuous supply of fresh milk, cream and butter.
    Milking a bosk: the sterile pails are kept in the storage wagon, the bosk are in a coral, they are milked by pulling of the teats, the buckets are emptied into a vat in the chilling pit of the serving wagon.


  • Clean Masters/Mistresses wagons with permission.


  • Clean the slave kennel.


  • Beat the furs and air them.


  • Pick up the dishes scattered around from when the Free are finished with what They were served.


  • A meal needs to be cooked by every kajirae daily. Baking every morning, pies, breads, etc.


  • Do daily checks for needed mending.


  • Weave baskets, using twine, twigs, etc.


  • Collect and store bosk dung and wood for the fires.


  • Haul the water for refilling the barrels. in the chilling pit for drinking there is a yolk that carrys 4-6 pails at one time kept in the freight wagon.


  • Make bandages. Find rags in good shape (don't use the silk ones though), wash them, then rip them into long strips, then boil them so they're sterile, dry them and then roll them up.


  • Make butter, bosk cheese: skim off the cream from the milk vat, pour it into the butter churn and then pump the handle up and down, this will move the paddle inside the churn and eventually make butter, you'll feel the mixture become thick and it will be harder to move the handle, eventually you will feel a ball of butter inside the churn -- take the butter and press it into a mold and put it in the chilling pit, pour off the whey (buttermilk) and check to see if there is some in the serving wagon, if the supply is sufficient, feed the whey to the animals -- for the cheese, move some of the milk from the vat to the cheese vat, light the fire, add the starter and cook until curds form, add rennet and any flavorings you desire, cook until its the right consistency, the drain, wrap the cheese in cheesecloth and set it in the chilling pit to age.


  • Make sure fresh blackwyne is always made that there are kettles filled of water on the fires, check the urns/bottles over the fires to be sure there are suitable amounts of warmed drinks such as paga.


  • Make sure medical kits are up to date and filled.

There are plenty of things to do in camp these are just a few to help get started, a busy clean home is always sign of a happy home to visitors and outsiders entering.

Doing a chore: Chores are to be done in camp with a minimum of four longish posts, about four lines long. They should then be posted to the Kataii Chore Board, including the time signature from the room and your name in full with your ko-lar tag. The title of the chore should be put in the subject line so others will not do the same chore in the same day.


Being a slave is a whole way of life, involving a total modality of existence. There is a great deal more to it than simply serving a master in the furs.
