Miles away, in an estate crammed to the rafters with women of all shapes and sizes, BianCa and Malpha talked quietly as they finally prepared to go to sleep. They were sharing a room. Thors hadn’t been too pleased about leaving his wife but he understood what they were trying to accomplish and he supported them. Because he was the duke, all the other men had agreed to the plan. They had grumbled a bit at having to do women’s work but Thors had rallied them and they were determined to show their superiority over the women, they believed that as men they would easily do the simple jobs women were given.

“We have an uphill battle ahead of us, Malpha,” said BianCa as she got into the bed and arranged the pillows for maximum comfort.

Malpha climbed into the other side of the huge bed. She preferred the smaller bed she shared with her husband, but knowing the size of BianCa’s husband, she understood the need for such a large bed.

“We’ll start the conclave tomorrow and break the women up into groups. Hopefully, some of the dreams and wishes of the younger women will be given a chance to develop,” Malpha said.

“You don’t think it will make it worse? I mean, they’re hardly likely to achieve those dreams themselves,” BianCa said in a sleepy voice.

“They will remember their disappointment at not being able to pursue their goals. It will encourage them to help us achieve those goals for their children and grandchildren. We’re not going to effect change in a short period of time. I expect it will take a minimum of five generations, but likely, it will take longer. For a complete change, I expect it will take two or three hundred years,” Malpha answered, plumping up her own pillow. She missed her husband wrapped around her.

“Why?”

“Because the way things are now needs to become ancient history for changes to be completely accepted. People will need to believe themselves to be the enlightened modern thinkers, as opposed to the old traditionalists. This type of belief only comes with the passage of many, many years.”

BianCa turned to look at Malpha, “I wish I could be alive to see it.”

Malpha didn’t answer. BianCa’s comment had reminded her of the shorter lifespan of the KowLer. She had stopped her life-lengthening gene treatments but she would still live for another two hundred years quite easily. She would have to make sure her husband’s health remained good and that he lived as long as she. Since Thors’ life was also extended, BianCa would need to be treated. Plotting to have her new friends with her as long as possible, she drifted into sleep. Her last thought before sleep took her was wondering if Ben had found her DRD bracelet where she had put it.
