A Hard Life

-----

The next morning, Cassandra was visited by a prostitute that was a partner of her mother, apparently, her mother was found dead in the streets, stabbed to death by a drunk man that wanted services for free. Her mother apparently had rejected him and spit on his face, making the man go insane, taking a knife and stabbing her in front of the other prostitutes, who couldn't even help her out of fear, most of them ended running away, leaving Cassandra's mother to her bitter fate.

The man escaped, and had not been caught yet, and even the authorities didn't seem to care about the death of just "another whore nobody cares about"… Even the guards and soldiers didn't answered the prostitutes, pushing them away and back to the red-light district, without letting them walk inside the capital of the duchy where most of the commoners with some money and the nobles gathered.
