Yes readers you heard correctly. The prey of Ireem went on strike yesterday. I received a scroll and sketch form the prey Kitten Krakauer and have decided to share it with all of you. It is apparent that she feels the revolt was a resounding success. Here is the scroll as I received it.

As you all have no doubt already heard, the slaves of Ireem set their collective foot down in the form of No Run Wednesday. Led by my sister Shevaunn Clarity, the preys were on strike, refusing to run and be chased, instead dancing at the auction site, teasing the predatorss with their beauty and charm and having a grand time partying, leaving the preds to stand idly by or squabble amongst themselves. To my surprise, we were joined by palace dwellers, magi including my lovely sister Lorelay Rhiadra, djinns, and even by slavers and undeads (Verm can dance???), all dancing with us in support.

No doubt you, dear reader, are wondering... what was the cause for this uprising against our role as prey in Ireem society? Very simply, poor treatment by the predators, namely, ignoring preys after capture, leaving them bored in a tent instead of being their Master, and a general disregard for the important role we have in Ireem. This uprising displayed that we are essential to Ireem, socially and economically.

No run=No sell=No dinars
No run=No slave to own=No slave to *reader insert your use for slaves here*

If there were no slaves to capture and own or sell, who would *once again, reader insert your use for slaves here*? Who would you sell to make your living predators? Each other? What would Ireem be like if there were no more slaves to catch? You all got a small taste of that yesterday, let it be a somber warning and not a taste of Ireem's future! We are many things, attractive, obedient (mostly ;) ), strong (all that damn running!), but one thing we are not is furniture! do not capture us, deposit us in a tent and neglect us! This time was a protest, but if there is a next time, it may be for good. :(

Now while she feels the revolt worked perfectly, I myself doubt if there was even a revolt at all. I myself caught six prey on Wednesday. So clearly there were prey running on “ No run Wednesday.” Also while I will admit freely that I witnessed a rather large group of prey dancing in the auction early in the morning, This group disappeared after just an hour or two. Is this the best that the prey of Ireem can organize? Their master plan falls apart after an few hours? However I am merely the reporter here. Tell us what you think Ireem. I will leave you with a few questions.

Slavers do you feel your business was hampered by this revolt?

Predators did you find your self with nothing to do wishing the prey would end their strike?

Let us here your voice Ireem. Tell these Prey if they really made a difference.

I was a little saddened to be informed that the "Strike" was over after only five hours. We were told the preds got the message. What message? Barely twenty-four hours later many of us were locked back into the catch and release that so many of us were complaining about.

Our preds have not gotten the message and the prey may soon start to disappear from Ireem. Is this what we want? Do the dedicated prey who wish to serve and give a good run really have to all leave before the preds really get the message?

Perhaps I'm the only one still feeling frustrated. Who knows.

agree with Karluin. but later more came and we continued revolt party without leader who gave in to complaints from preds. Next time, we find strong leader to lead revolt! Next time, we stay unite!
