STORY DESCRIPTION I was a snob of the first order and quite incorrigible in using my rank and position to get my own way. They had been watching me and they took action. I was somehow moved, in a single instant, to another Earth, one they called Arret, and there they proceeded to correct my errant ways.
I was stripped naked, my body hairs were removed and my head shaved ??" totally: eyebrows and all.
I was whipped, worked and branded - yes, branded with a red-hot iron, and brought down to the lowest ebb of poverty and despair. |
