Intrigued by the hardness of the cage plastic encountered in the Vivarium I spoke to Misk and he and I, together with other Priest-Kings and humans, armored a fleet of transportation disks, which would be extremely effective if a silver tube were mounted in them and which, even if not armed, might yet serve acceptably as scouting vehicles or relatively safe transports. - (Priest-Kings of Gor, Chapter 28, Sentence #167)

* * * * As Al-Ka had predicted, the energy bulbs in the Nest, except where they had actually been destroyed by the fire of Sarm's silver tubes, came on again. Former Mul engineers, trained by Priest-Kings, had constructed an auxiliary power unit and had fed its energy into the main system. When the lights flickered and then burst into clear, vital radiance there was a great cheer from the humans in Misk's camp, with the exception of the Gur Carriers, to whom the energy bulbs were not of great importance. Intrigued by the hardness of the cage plastic encountered in the Vivarium I spoke to Misk and he and I, together with other Priest-Kings and humans, armored a fleet of transportation disks, which would be extremely effective if a silver tube were mounted in them and which, even if not armed, might yet serve acceptably as scouting vehicles or relatively safe transports. The fiery blasts of the silver tubes would wither and wrinkle the plastic but unless the exposure were rather lengthy they could not penetrate it. And a simple heat torch, as I had earlier learned, could scarcely mark the obdurate material. In the third week of the War, equipped with the armored transportation disks, we began to carry the battle to the forces of Sarm, though they still outnumbered us greatly. - (Priest-Kings of Gor)
