Slavery is a system under which people are treated as property to be bought and sold, and are forced to work. Though slavery is outlawed in the Human Kingdoms and Hes'Orkathal, it is prominent of the Eastern continents of Tennim.
The Human Kingdoms
Slavery is abhorred and strictly forbidden by the people of the Human Kingdoms. In Ventos, it's nobles claim descent from slaves who broke free from the grasp of The Tyrant Emperor.
In Nordheim the inhabitants use Thralls, which are slaves in all but name. The practice of slavery is described as purchasing another person, but the Nords do not take part in the slave trade. They take their thralls through conquest and raiding.
