In the beginning.
Their prayers were words of gratitude to the deities represented by these statues, bestowing upon them food.
They provided them with a completely different life.
This process lasted for about a week.
This week was possibly the best days the Wo pirates ever experienced.
They didn't need to compete for food with other Wo pirates.
They didn't have to lead various slaves to perform various tasks.
Nor did they worry about their tasks being undone due to slave resistance and escape.
They didn't need to think about which of the most rebellious slaves to capture and punish or behead, thereby intimidating the others.
Of course, sometimes they felt that the food was quite abundant at the moment.
But if it could come in a variety of forms, it would be even better.
These prayers and thoughts soon reflected back into their real lives.
The Wo pirates were delighted to find.
The food, indeed as prayed for, became more plentiful and varied.
