masochistic! Didn't you mean sadistic? I mean, if I watched the little Drac
kids suck the blood out of his neck and like that. I meanтАФтАЭ She batted her
eyes and tittered helplessly.
тАЬA semantic paradox,тАЭ Gold Dorff rumbled. тАЬWe Golds are permitted to
understand why, which is what makes us superior to the base-colors. Of
course you are sadistic! All women are, more than men, actually. They love
the sight of blood, and in the old days when their men went off to war,
they loved every minute of it. And quite properly, too! What I meant by
being masochistic isтАФhow can you stand all that ridiculous guff, child? As a
Gold, why bother? Kor and the Purple Forest, as well as his battles, are
intended for base-color consumption, not for you, child.тАЭ
Gold Ambon looked worried. тАЬYou mean Sena oughtn'tтАФ?тАЭ
Gold Dorff waved a plump hand. тАЬChht! Chht! If Sena gets some mingled
satisfaction out of the more obvious Kingdoms, let her. After all, she's still
a child.тАЭ
 тАЬI'm eighteen!тАЭ
тАЬExactly. A child.тАЭ His pinched eyes moved carefully over the lounging
length of her slim curves. тАЬAs I was saying, women need the sadistic outlet
and have always been more sensible about it than men, although they were
equally sensible about not letting the men know it. The death-fight-sex
parlay is perfectly normal. Livideo gives us all a vent for our completely
natural urges, even the lesser breedтАФor should I say lesser bred?тАЭ He
smiled at his cleverness. тАЬEveryone, from Golds down to Blacks, needs
fulfillment in all directions. And Vicaria provides it for all. So you seeтАФmy
little kittenтАФthose brainless oafs like Kor really do serve a very useful
purpose by their existence.тАЭ
тАЬIf one feltтАФummтАФpity?тАЭ
Gold Dorff frowned. тАЬThat, of course, would be psychotic. These heroes
and the creatures they battle perform a necessary function. And that is
that. An outlet for our Own passions. Something for everybody within the
Seven Kingdoms of Vicaria. Have you tried Circe and her Palaces of
Unendurable Pleasure yet?тАЭ
тАЬFather thinks I'm too young.тАЭ Sena stretched out kittenishly and gave
the white-haired man lying next to her a pettish toss. тАЬWe don't even have
Sixth yet.тАЭ
тАЬAh. The bypaths.тАЭ
тАЬTell Father I've got to visit Circe! Tell him!тАЭ
The white-haired man patted her shoulder. тАЬNext year, Sena.тАЭ He turned
to their important guest. тАЬYou mustn't mind Sena, Gold Dorff. I mean, her
mentioning the sympathy syndrome. Of course she knows what Vicaria is all
about and how it isn't only for entertainment. Sena's a perfectly healthy
normal Gold.тАЭ
тАЬI can see that.тАЭ
The old man's eyebrows met. тАЬGold Dorff, there is one thing.тАЭ
тАЬYes?тАЭ
тАЬThese new Lech groups? I don't quite understand them. Are they all
right? In my dayтАФтАЭ
тАЬWhich was quite a while back.тАЭ Gold Dorff laughed. тАЬNo. The Lechs are
primarily for adolescent experimentation. Before even Golds settle down to
Vicaria and the permissible sex life, they go through a period of adjustment
