It was the kitchen of an Ashigaru guard station within the palace itself. - (Rebels of Gor, Chapter 56, Sentence #7)

Surely our seemingly frightened wraith in the corridor, she who had fled from us, seemingly so distraught, earlier on the second level of the palace, might still be in the palace. If she was a free woman, as we speculated, she might in such times fear to leave the building. In a time of peril even its hazards might seem preferable to those of the outer grounds or the open country, which might be roamed by raiding peasants, by bandits, by renegades, by hungry, desperate soldiers, like animals, freed of the rod of discipline. It was the kitchen of an Ashigaru guard station within the palace itself. Might there not be scraps of food in such a place, even scrapings from the sides of garbage bins? Might not such locations then be frequented by such an individual, or individuals, trying to survive like urts in the collapse of a society or civilization? I had located it and other such facilities in my peregrinations about the palace before my escape with Haruki, after the incident of the eel pool and the straw jackets.
