The rence islands, of woven rence, too, could be moved about, so a village located one afternoon might be gone by the next morning. - (Quarry of Gor, Chapter 26, Sentence #13)

In many places the rence is well above, sometimes several feet above, the sides of the boat. After the Rencers acquired the great bow, the peasant bow, which had taken place some years ago, the delta had become their undisputed domain. The thickets of rence provided ideal cover for mobile bowmen in their small craft, which could be deployed in their dozens. The rence islands, of woven rence, too, could be moved about, so a village located one afternoon might be gone by the next morning. In this way a rence community, a homeland or capital, a depot, camp, or outpost, so to speak, is not a fixed target. Such communities may approach or withdraw, scatter or regroup, in ways not practical for more sessile communities. This permits latitude and flexibility, both tactically and strategically. - (Quarry of Gor)
