Too, Priest-Kings, in all their wisdom, must realize that Kurii, suspicious, ambitious, and aggressive, would be unlikely, indefinitely, to peaceably and harmoniously share a world. - (Rebels of Gor, Chapter 21, Sentence #97)

Did this mean that the Kurii favored the house of Yamada? Perhaps it was there to monitor matters, and little more. More importantly, I had no reason to trust either Kurii or Priest-Kings with respect to more than a pretence of impartiality. I had no reason to believe that Kurii, long confined to their steel spheres, and desperate to obtain a fresh, unspoiled world after they had ruined their own, would abide a negative result of the wager with equanimity. Too, Priest-Kings, in all their wisdom, must realize that Kurii, suspicious, ambitious, and aggressive, would be unlikely, indefinitely, to peaceably and harmoniously share a world. Matters were further complicated by my realization that factions existed amongst the Kurii, both within worlds and amongst worlds. Indeed, had not such factions rendered their original world little more than a seared wasteland? Too, I knew from my own time in the Nest, long ago, that the Priest-Kings themselves might differ amongst themselves in trust and agenda. One might speculate as one wished. - (Rebels of Gor)
