Hey, Diana here! Well right now I was thinking how confusing the Arena and Choosing must sound. So I wrote down the rules. I hope this helps!
The Choosing Rules
The Choosing is an event that comes every month and lasts for a week. During the week every girl comes to the Arena to be bid on. Each day of the Choosing week, girls will have a chance to be bid on.
Attendance is mandatory and violators of this rule shall be punished by the Watchers.
If you are Chosen, you cannot refuse and someone cannot take your place in the Choosing.
The Lord that has bid on you will be your master
You will be addressed as "The Chosen" Ex. Chosen Mikan or Chosen Sakura
After you are Chosen, you may go back to your home and pack your belongings. Then when the Choosing week is over, you will go with your Master to their castle.
You are allowed to visit your family once every year for a week.
The Chosen girl is a rank lower than the Lord. They have power over most people.
Let me make this clear, most girls want to be Chosen, they don't see it like Mikan: as a slave to the Lord and violation of freedom. But the other girls see it as a way to get close a cute or hot Lord.
I will try to add to this if there is ever any confusion so please tell what I might be missing!
I hope this sorta helped! Thanks for reading The Choosing!
