Most people use a form of employment to control others.

It’s peaceful and rational. You can find mutual agreement and work together in a satisfying manner.

It’s also cumbersome.

You need to find a common ground, and if you can’t, you’ll split apart.

Even if you find it, you can’t abuse others too much. As someone in a position of power, you have to consider many circumstances and conveniences.@@novelbin@@

[A curse? Did he personally put this on you?]

"Yes, it forces obedience to his commands."

Before the Great Change, slavery was common. With the rise of magic and otherworldly abilities, it became easier and more certain to create slaves than it ever was before.
