I have been told that even on the metal worlds, the steel worlds, the engineered dwellings of Kurii are often reminiscent of dens or lairs. - (Conspirators of Gor, Chapter 27, Sentence #112)

I know little of the biology, or history, of the Kur species, but I have gathered that it, perhaps like the human species, long ago in its past, may have frequented caves, using them as dens or lairs. In any event, perhaps due to the warmth of their pelting and the excellence of their dark vision, for the Kur can hunt in the night as well as in the day, they seem, even today, to find, unlike the human, cave-like surroundings congenial. There is little which can surprise one in the twisting, confining narrowness of a cave, and it can be dangerous to enter one. I have been told that even on the metal worlds, the steel worlds, the engineered dwellings of Kurii are often reminiscent of dens or lairs. A building, for example, with its halls, may resemble a maze of tunnels. In any event, whatever may be the truth in these matters, the decor and structure of the vast "Cave" was not uniform, and, from the human point of view, certain areas were more pleasant than others. Interestingly, most districts within the "Cave" seemed to have been constructed with humans in mind, perhaps to suggest a kinship of outlook and values betwixt the species. - (Conspirators of Gor)
