so alibaba's mother is a prostitute? isn't she is once a maid? so since she has the king's child (even though illegitimate) she could at least accept some money right so she don't need to work as one, at least work a better job..too bad...from the look of it she's a nice mother... (she died of sickness..STD?)

Aristocrat gets a servant pregnant. The lowly servant is kicked out. She gives birth to her son in the slump. As she tries to make ends meet, she quickly finds out that being a woman in that time period, she has very few means to provide for herself. So the only way she can support herself and her son is by selling her body.

Morgiana was amazing. Tracking Alibaba down by smell, infiltrating his hideout unnoticed, and then princess carrying him back to Alladin... this is mighty impressive. And pretty funny
Alibaba's backstory was very powerful and enlightening. I'm glad they didn't rush this and took their time to tell it. It will probably continue next week, since we're still in the dark about a few things, mainly why he joined Kassim even though he betrayed him in the past. Probably has to do with the little sister's death.

And it's true that her new line of work had a high risk of dying due to illness. Most likely the king tracked her down after he became king. |

Either that, or seeing how miserable Abumado was turning out to be, he decided to seek out Alibaba in hopes he is more fit to be a king.
I mean really. If I was Rashid Saruja, and THAT was my option for the next throne, I'd be desperately looking for a back-up plan too.

Top Right:
Alibaba: (bubble) Morgiana, can I carry you? (outside) It is always me being princess carried. Morgiana: Ok. Top Left: Alibaba: (right bubble) Woah, you're quite light. (left bubble) With such a petite body, where did the strength come from? Bottom right: No text, with Morgiana blushing Bottom Left: Alibaba: (perplexed look on face) (Bubble) Morgiana... what happened? (thoughts) Did I anger her? Morgiana: (outside) Need to endure! |

Prostitution is never a respectable profession..since when it is...? Even though at the very least alibaba's mother still somewhat respectable in the aspect that she raise alibaba and kassim well plus she did it because she have to unlike nowadays that some girl just sold their body just to get an iPad or other things..

Perhaps you should research "oiran", "tayuu" and "yuukaku" of Japanese Edo period.

Not to mention "tayuu" and "yuukaku" are high ranks in geisha, those that reach these ranks are very famous in society. And they also don't live in slum ^^
