Disturbing Reports have been Received; Tab Learns of the Fair of the Farther Islands; The Tesephone will Depart with the Tide In my tent, high amidst the crags of the Cove of Harpalos, I angrily thrust aside the reports of several selected men, chosen from the crews of the Dorna and Tesephone, thes... |

"Have you heard of the Fair of the Farther Islands?" I asked. |
10 |

"Have you heard of the Fair of the Farther Islands?" I asked. |
10 |
| 17 | 429 |
"Men attend the fair from all the islands," she said. |
10 |
| 17 | 438 |
"That seems only fair," I said. |
10 |
| 17 | 448 |
"I invite myself to the fair with more in mind than espionage," I said. |
10 |
| 18 | 145 |
"Have you been to a Fair of the Farther Islands?" he asked. |
10 |
| 18 | 149 |
You will enjoy the fair. |
10 |
| 18 | 163 |
"I expect that you will enjoy the fair," said Sakim, "and that your men will enjoy it, as well, even if they are not interested in prize verr and tarsks. |

"We have been at the fair four days," said Thurnock, "and we know no more now than when we came". |
10 |
| 19 | 127 |
Most of the visitors to the fair were men, but many women were present, as well. |
10 |
| 19 | 130 |
Much of the garmenture in the crowd, in cuts, lengths, and folds, in brightness, richness and texture, was festive, as Fair Days are holidays. |

That you would not have seen at a Sardar Fair. |
10 |
| 19 | 140 |
"Guardsmen of the fair?" I asked. |
10 |
| 19 | 151 |
"Why are soldiers of Cos at the fair?" asked Thurnock. |
10 |
| 19 | 158 |
"It has been reported at the fair," said the second man. |
10 |
| 19 | 174 |
Accordingly, Thurnock did not carry his bow at the fair. |
10 |
| 19 | 189 |
We looked after the two uniformed men, who were now accosting another visitor to the fair, this time in the gray of the metal workers. |
10 |

"It is unfortunate," said Thurnock, "that Nicomachos, Admiral of the Farther Islands, contrary to announcements and expectations, is not in attendance at the fair". |
10 |
| 19 | 223 |
"Admiral Nicomachos," she said, "is in attendance at the fair, but secretly, not officially, not publicly". |

There must have been five or six hundred men in the tent, but that number, as large as it was, would scarcely be missed from the population of the fair. |
10 |
| 21 | 22 |
"How did you know I was at the fair?" he asked. |
10 |
| 21 | 67 |
"I suspect your presence at the fair is pertinent to that end," I said. |
10 |
| 21 | 69 |
"I am sure that the pirate, Bosk of Port Kar, or his spies, will be at the fair, to assess the wealth of villages, to note the cargos of what ships are bound where, and so on. |
10 |
| 21 | 76 |
"I trust that you have your own spies at the fair". |

He and Clitus lowered the large, inert, blanketed form, groaning and soaked with paga, to the sand beside the beached Tesephone, in our camp a pasang or so away from the harbor at Mytilene, near which the teeming streets of the fair were still lit by hundreds of torches. |

"Ctesippus and Laios, henchmen of Glaukos, proprietor of The Living Island in Sybaris, are at the fair". |
10 |
| 22 | 66 |
"Thus I thought you would be interested to learn of the presence of Ctesippus and Laios at the fair," he said. |
10 |
| 22 | 90 |
"Leaving the fair," I said, "the corsairs will seek prey at sea. |
10 |
| 22 | 91 |
But in the harbor at Mytilene there are more than two hundred ships, and most will not raise their sails and depart until the closing of the fair. |
10 |
| 22 | 101 |
There will be many ships, and rich cargos, after the fair". |
