Several of my entries for Wattpad's #MyHandmaidsTale contest.(Disclaimer: I've never read the book or seen the miniseries-the contest rules stipulated that the writer couldn't use any specific characters or settings from either, so these stories are based on the novels' premise...)

This is not my story, it's written by MSθε (MS Lotus) and originally translated by Ethereal Novels (All rights reserved to the both of them(?). Apologies I'm kinda new to this...) . I became interested in this novel after reading the sequel (kinda) of it, regrettably there are only few (26 with password) chapters translated (from almost 2 years ago) and after thinking about it I figured I would try translating myself to improve my English and get a new experience! But as the novel wasn't officially dropped by the Translator I will only do this, if they don't mind it and don't contact me( in that case I will immediately delete everything). My first language isn't English. This will be a MTL. (So please don't be too harsh with me...)(The first few chapters can be found on NovelUpdates!)Otherwise, Enjoy!!!Update Schedule: Two Chapters every Wednesday, Two Chapters every Sunday

The Amazons of Ezn
Preface:The Amazons of Ezn are an all-female military corps of the Kingdom of Ezn. They were so named by Western observers and historians due to their similarity to the semi-mythical Amazons of ancient Anatolia and the Black Sea.Origins:King Minoba (who ruled from 264–146 BC), the third King of Ezn, is said to have originally started the group which would become the Amazons as a corps of Archers called the Femina Sagittarii. This corps of archers would participate in the Punic Wars Minoba recruited both men and women soldiers from foreign captives, though women soldiers were also recruited from free Ezn women, enrolled as young as 6 years old. Other accounts indicate that the Hedo were recruited from among the M'heda ("king's wives") of which there were often thousands. But the majority of the Amazons were handpicked by the King trusted military advisors from the 16 tribes of Ezn selected to serve the King as bodyguards and potential wives in order to keep the tribal peace. They were chosen using the Kingdom’s devshirme system or “blood tax”. The system was established and enacted when the 16 tribes of the Kingdom were first unified as a way to insure a force that protected the monarch was loyal only to the crown and the Kingdom, not their tribe. During their membership they were not allowed to have children or be part of married life (though they were legally married to the king). Many of them were virgins. The regiment had a semi-sacred status, which was intertwined with the Eznite Christian beliefs. The M'heda trained with intense physical exercise. Discipline was emphasized. Serving in the M'heda offered women the opportunity to "rise to positions of command and influence" in an environment structured for individual empowerment.The Current Amazons of Ezn are elite tier one special operation super-soldiers who's skills and experience in the art and science of war is the culmination of 25 centuries of warfare.
