The Gods’ Edicts Part X - King Niro’s Wrath

Lexi gasped as a guard undid the belt around her chest and pulled it away, revealing her breasts. She shuddered at the sudden exposure and humiliation.

Penny was far less surprised than Lexi, but she still felt her face turn a shade of vermillion at the humiliation of having her round breasts uncovered in a room full of people. Yes, she had been naked in front of Master Elbrus many times, but he had treated her kindly enough. This felt incredibly degrading, and, more terrifyingly, it lent credence to Penny’s fear that they were about to face a horrific punishment for a crime that she, at least, had not committed. She was quite sure Lexi was innocent also, but she had no idea about the rich girl getting stripped naked beside her.

Eva wriggled in pitiful, useless resistance as the guard slipped off her fancy dress. She was beside herself with embarrassment and shock to suddenly be in her white undergarments, her body stretched vertically, in a room full of strangers, most of them men.

Eva was breathing raggedly with shock. She looked to her right and saw that the two slave girls bound up like her had had their belts removed and their breasts were full exposed. Eva watched in horror as apathetic guards removed the slave girls’ modesty garments, exposing them completely.

Eva looked away. She gulped. Surely they will not strip me nude she thought. I am royalty. My father is a Lord. An important Lord. This is a mistake. They would not dare shame me further.

Eva jolted with fear as she felt rough, masculine fingers suddenly come between the soft cloth of her undergarments and her sensitive skin…
 
The guards ripped Eva’s soft, expensive undergarments off like they were rags. Eva stood there, completely nude, her big breasts spread wide on her chest as her shoulders strained at being forced upwards as she stood with her toes barely touching the floor.

Eva’s round ass and tight abdomen caused many of the guards to stop and appreciate her physical beauty.

Eva looked down at her exposed, naked body and gasped. She looked to her right, and saw Penny and Lexi strung up completely naked the exact same way. How will anyone know that I am wealthy and important? Eva wondered as she looked at the two slave girls who were about her same age.

Penny was glancing around the room nervously. She did not notice Eva looking at her and Lexi. She was trying to see where the next threat would come from. Her mind was spinning trying to remember all of the details of the stories that she had heard about slaves being tortured or executed for misbehavior. Each was more horrific than the last.

Lexi was just hyperventilating, wondering what fresh horror this was building up to. Every man who she saw looking her petite, naked body up and down made her want to vanish and die out of sheer embarrassment. She felt so utterly dehumanized.

One of the guards who seemed to be in charge looked over all three of the naked girls and nodded. “They’re ready. Summon the Priestess.” He ordered curtly to his subordinates.
 
A Priestess of the Sisters of Suffering walked out of the darkness and approached the three naked condemned girls, tied up tight in unforgiving positions. The Priestess was not much older than them, with long, curly black hair and keen eyes. She wore the traditional, tight-fitting white dress of a Priestess, which was ritualistically cut to reveal most of the Priestess’ legs and hips and abdomen and upper chest.

Lexi and Penny had never actually seen a Priestess of the Sisters of Suffering before. Eva had met only a few and barely interacted with them, but due to her wealthy upbringing and education she looked at the Priestess’ neck and wrists; she wore a plain gold bracelet on either wrist and a thin silver chain around her neck; denoting her rank as a Junior Priestess.

Eva wondered if this was a good sign for them or not. The Priestess approached them and the guards stepped away respectfully. The radiant Priestess looked each of the three naked girls up and down and made lingering eye contact with them before she spoke; ensuring their full attention.

“By Sacred Decree of the Holy King Niro, each of you has been found guilty of High Treason against the Sacred Realm.”

Eva gasped. Penny froze in terror. Lexi hyperventilated at the tone of the revelation.

“By His Eminence’s wisdom, and in accordance with the Gods’ Edicts, you have been sentenced to torture and death by crucifixion.”
 
The Priestess paused to let the death sentence sink in. All three girls were too shocked and appalled to respond. Their eyes widened and their exposed breasts rose and fell on their panicked chests, and their mouths hung open, stunned.

The Priestess gave a solemn nod and turned to the guard who was in command. “They are ready.” And with that she walked away, leaving the condemned girls in the strong hands of the guards as their minds reeled at the prospect of execution by crucifixion.

A pair of guards stepped over to Eva. The hook holding her bound wrists began to slowly lower. She exhaled loudly in relief as her feet were once again able to stand normally on the stone floor. As her arms were lowered, the guards took hold of her and untied her wrists, pulled her hands behind her back, and tied them there tightly.

Eva winced at the new, uncomfortable restraints. Having her arms tied behind her back made her naked chest stick out even more. She blushed as she looked down and saw how her ample breasts dangled from her lean chest, and between her wide cleavage, beyond her smooth, thin belly, was her virgin vagina, fully on display.

Eva wanted to swoon, but she was painfully alert as adrenaline and panic coursed through her body. The guards placed a leather collar around her skinny neck. It had a metal clasp built into it.

Eva was escorted over towards the crossbeams. She balked at the thought of carrying one of those thick beams to her very own execution!

But she was marched past the three daunting beams, towards the line of slave girls near the far wall…
 
Eva realized that the leather collar around her neck was the same as the ones the slave girls all wore, and that the metal clasp connected them all via a long chain. The slave girls all wore the revealing, humiliating garb of slave girls, and had their hands shackles behind their backs.

Eva was halted when she close to the line of slaves. The commanding guard startled her when he spoke behind her. “Select a slave to carry your crossbeam.”

Eva sighed with relief at this order, for she could not fathom the arduous and humiliating task it would be to carry such a heavy object. She had no idea that this was being done to ensure that she had maximum stamina for suffering on the cross…
 
Eva’s eyes landed on a slender slave girl who looked to be a few years her senior. She had blonde hair and blue eyes and looked rather healthy. She can carry the crossbeam for me Eva thought.

“That one.” Eva said breathlessly, instinctively moving her wrist to point with her finger, but with her hands so tightly bound, it just amassed to her straining against the strong cords binding her for a moment. “Third from the left.” Eva said to clarify.

The guards did not respond, but two of them stepped forward approached the slave girl, who had her eyes downcast obediently. Her collar was removed and she was marched forward a few paces away from the line of slave girls and the guards efficiently stripped off what meager clothing she had on her.

Eva noticed that the slave girl’s breasts were quite large and her nipples were big. Eva watched as the naked, blonde slave girl was marched over to the crossbeams…
 
Eva watched as the slave girl stood, completely naked, with her hands shackled behind her back. A half a dozen guards began to move around her.

Eva was impressed at the slave girl’s calmness with all this. Eva was still hyperventilating with barely-contained panic at the fact that they were going to be executed!!! Eva had no idea that the slave girl was, in her own mind, also terribly frightened. For not only was she stripped naked, but she had heard that all slaves who participate in executions of citizens, per the Gods’ Edicts, must also be put to death.

The guards undid the shackles binding the slave girl’s wrists and then tied strong cords of rope around her wrists. Simultaneously, a pair of strong guards hefted up a wooden crossbeam.

The crossbeam had a small metal ring embedded in the back, and there were also grooves along the ends, running parallel to the floor.

The guards held the slave girl’s hands up to her sides and the others laid the heavy crossbeam on her shoulders. While some of the guards held her in place, others took the rope around her wrists and pulled them back through the ring in the back of the beam, pulling tight so that the ropes rested in the grooves, securing the slave girl to her burdensome crossbeam.

The guards pulled the rope tight, stretching the slave girls arms out to either side as far as they stretched, her naked chest beginning to heave already at the unpleasantly heavy weight resting precariously on her shoulders.

With the slave loaded and ready for the march to the crucifixion, Eva was marched forward to stand off the slave girl. She would lead their degrading procession to the site of their executions.
 
Penny was taken down from being painfully strung up and had her hands re-bound behind her back. As she was marched away from Lexi, she expected that she would see the rich girl tied to a crossbeam for their march to their executions.

She was surprised when she saw Eva standing a ways before them, hands tied behind her back, and some other blonde woman tied tightly to a crossbeam. Penny saw the line of slave girls and noticed the gap where the blonde girl had stood, and she realized that an innocent slave girl was being made to carry Eva’s crossbeam for her, nude.

Penny balked at the cruelty of the Realm.

Penny was also marched past the two remaining crossbeams (one of those is going to be for me she realized as she suppressed a cry of anguish) and towards the line of slave girls.

She was given the same order that Eva had been given. Except, unlike Eva, Penny suspected that whichever slave she chose to carry her crossbeam would be crucified on it first while Penny was tortured as a traitor.

This filled Penny with deep, painful trepidation as she looked at the slave girls before and could not fathom choosing one of them to have die with her for nothing.

Penny began to freeze up, not able to make a decision.

The guard in command laid a threatening hand on her naked shoulder. “Choose one. Now. Or I will make your friend,” somehow she just knew he meant Lexi, “suffer for weeks before she gets the cross.”

Penny gulped and her mind raced as she looked at the line of innocent slave girls and chose which to condemn to a horrible fate…
 
Penny’s immediate thought was that she wanted to identify the eldest of the slave girls and have her carry the crossbeam. A younger slave girl might still have hope of survival or maybe even (dare she even think it) a chance of freedom. So Penny quickly looked over the girls to try to pick the one who looked oldest.

But for a public execution, they had chosen younger, more supple slave girls who would endure the suffering and put on a good show for the crowd.

Penny’s reluctant gaze finally landed on a beautiful slave girl with wavy brown hair and big brown eyes who looked like she maybe, maybe, was three or four years older than Penny.

Penny choked back tears and looked at the woman who she was likely condemning to a terrible death. “Sixth slave girl from the right.” She whispered.
