### Slavery

Gehenna actively practices Slavery. The main sources of slaves includes buying them from Earth and rescuing people from disasters.

#### Crime Slaves

In many cases, world governments refuse to kill humans who have been served a death sentence and instead they sell them to Gehenna as a crime slave. Mainly to avoid paying for their execution and earning the good will of Gehenna in the process. The slaves are sentenced to abusive physical labor in Border Town until the day they die.

#### Disaster Slaves

Disaster Slaves are humans that were issued Death Fate's and were recognized by the Tree of Sephiroth for their value.

Disaster Slaves are referred as such because they are fated to suffer a death at the hand of a disaster, no matter what. I.e. Even if a witch saves you from a fatal car crash, you will still suffer another disaster (i.e. a heart attack) soon after. The only way to avoid this is to cut that human's fate line, essentially removing their physical existence from the world (with the exception of Gehenna). Any action committed by such a human on Earth would automatically revert itself to the point it never even happened.

After those people were rescued, the slaves are handed over to city hall (who are in charge of their daily needs) and are then assigned to a specific government building to work at for 5 years before being relocated elsewhere. However, these slaves could be purchased by other witches to work as their servants, however those witches would become solely responsible for the daily necessities of their slaves and at any point, those witches are allowed to turn their slaves into free humans.

Unlike Crime Slaves, Disasters slaves still maintain a basic amount of rights (i.e. even their owners aren't allowed to experiment on them without their express consent.)
