My original post concerning why I think the Mallers have "slaves" was
I feel like the Mallers have found many survivors wich would contribute to the theory about their territory, and possibly why they have slaves. Think about it 1 to many new Mallers not enough guns and ammo for everyone to have a weapon the people who don't have weapons are getting restless instead of just killing them or turning them away Durai decides to make them Forced Laborers and most likely sex slaves...I don't think every survivor they find instantly becomes a slave but I also think that the process of choosing which of the new survivors become slaves and who becomes a "Maller" is all that complicated. I wouldn't be surprised if they were going by the 'Eeny, meeny, miny, moe' system to be honest. My backup for this theory is that there is a female "Maller" other than Scratch, in part 2 of chapter 21 When the Scratch's convoy makes the last stop before the Arena Shes introduced talking about "Sam" being ripped out of his seat during the ambush. She remains nameless but his is still important.)
To clarify I haven't planted my flag in the sex slave theory yet, but it is entirely possible that the male survivors they find are the laborers and the females they find are used for pleasure...or both. My reason for bringing this up but not investing in it is simple, I think Durai has far to much respect for women to designate them sex slaves. I don't really have any support for this spin-off theory other than Scratch freeing him and being 2nd in command, the other female Maller, and possibly another female influence we/I don't know of as of yet. We don't know much about this guy but I doubt he would do something like that, for what ever reason.
On the other hand that entirely sounds like something Marcus or Gatekeeper would do at the Colony. From the small time frame we have had to get to know this "Gatekeeper" he sounds like a very strategic person. It wouldn't surprise me at all if ever since his hostile takeover and the loss of the Colony's armed personells ammo supply, if the moral of Gatekeepers men was significantly low and he authorised the raping of the civilians.
But enough about me what do YOU think?
