Warrior Woman

They called her Zadieyek of Gyre, which meant dreaded woman. She was a fighter, dangerous to confront. Dreaded. The distant city of Gyre trained such women, so they thought she came from there. If she had a real name and a true birthplace, she could not remember them. Her life had apparently begun with her sale to the Arena for a short brief stardom fighting vicious men and savage beasts. Because she was a skilled gladiator, she became an object of value. Bids were made for her body, by those who wanted a winner, or a valued slave. For herself, she wanted freedom.
