Also I envy the person who got to write the captions for that article. "The unnamed masturbator wore the stomach like a glove" has to be the pinnacle of their career.
For the flashback, here's something I thought of back when you mentioned wanting to do a RP about a sacred prostitute: at a certain age, all servants of Afodisia are initiated into the mysteries of sex by a priest and priestess. It's a week-long ritual, focusing on lessons in how to give and receive pleasure. The initiate is encouraged - but not required - to explore these lessons with both priest and priestess. In between (and sometimes during) the actual sex are lessons about contraception and hygene, advice about love and romance (the priest and priestess are always either a married couple or close friends), and theological instructions into the mysteries of the faith.
It probably happens at the age of 16, explaining why 15-year-old Clara hasn't been initiated yet.
A ship once brought aboard a corrupt traveler named Yellow Jack - and never made it home. No port would dock it due to its cursed passenger, & his presence made the crew go mad, fighting & killing each other. The ship now sails endlessly, with a crew of ghosts.
