8 6 I had not wished to bring a large number of men through the forest with me, for they would have been difficult to conceal.
Details
10
8 16 Too, Verna's band, earlier in the forest, had irritated me.

8 174 We had changed the guard twice in the forest.
Details

8 203 In a short time the two men who had been relieved of guard duty in the forest re-entered the hut.

9 283 When they turn in the forest and throw down their arms, the last of them, we shall put them in chains and sell them to men".

10
9 357 And I, a fool with my dreams, had come into the forest, to rescue her, to best Marlenus, and improve my fortunes, to rescue the beautiful Talena and improve the fortunes of the house of Bosk.

10
11 493 A huntsman, one of Marlenus' retinue, cowled in the head of a forest panther, stepped behind her.

13 191 The women, the four slaves, and he who wore the swath of panther girls, were taken, with the majority of the men of Tyros, into the forest".
Details
10
13 239 The bulk of the attackers had proceeded through the forest, to surprise the camp of Marlenus.

10
13 279 "How many of you," I asked, "are forest girls?" "We are of the cities," said the redhead.
Details
10
13 282 "Do not take us into the forest!" begged one.
Details
10
13 283 "You will be taken into the forest," I told them.
Details
10
13 329 "What occurs in the forest at the camp of Marlenus?" I asked.

10
13 368 I then, speaking no more with them, strode from the beach and entered the forest.
Details
10
13 376 I did not stop, but continued to make my way through the forest.
Details
10
14 23 Marlenus was soon to withdraw from the forest.
Details
10
14 43 He had been captured there, when the camp had fallen, and, according to the report of one of the paga slaves, had been taken into the forest.

14 159 With a rock I struck down a forest urt.

Details
10
15 97 The men of Tyros, I knew, familiar with islands and the sweeps of gleaming Thassa, were inexperienced in the forest.
Details
10
15 127 The forest itself was their prison.
Details
10
15 134 Not many girls went into the forest, and those that did did not normally go far.
Details
10
15 224 It was only that, in the darkness, they mistook paga slaves in the skins of panthers for their sisters of the forest, at last returning to the band.
Details
10
15 272 I had Ilene gather fruit and nuts for me as we made our way through the forest.

10
15 499 In the forest I was hunting game other than tabuk.

Details
10
16 55 They only wished to hurry, to leave the forest as soon as possible, to escape.
Details
10
16 72 In desperation, to my pleasure, some fifteen men of Tyros entered the forest.
Details
10
16 76 In all, throughout the day, the great bow had spoken forty-one times, and forty-one men of Tyros now lay scattered along the trail and in the forest, feed for prowling sleen.
Details
10
16 139 One on each arm they conducted her through the forest until they came to a place we had agreed upon, in which we had placed four stakes.

Details
10
18 37 They had come through the forest.
Details
10
18 47 Now, sullen, angry, at the edge of the forest, I saw a slave chain of twenty-one men.
Details
10
18 50 Seventy-five men had been abandoned in the forest, still wearing the chains that had been hammered about their necks and wrists.

18 164 The forest was behind them.
Details
10
18 166 In the darkness of the forest, I smiled.
Details
10
18 167 * * * * During the afternoon I observed the slave girls, tied in pairs, by the neck, each pair under the guard of a man of Tyros and a panther girl, gathering driftwood and, from the forest's edge, broken branches.
Details
10
18 178 Meanwhile, in good order, with confidence, several men of Tyros entered the forest and cut large numbers of stout saplings.

18 184 It shielded them from the forest.
Details
10
18 191 I could not well fire into the palisade without approaching near the water, without leaving the shelter of the forest.
Details
10
18 223 I washed with a bit of water from a stream, ate some tabuk strips from my wallet, and went again to the edge of the forest.
Details
10
18 248 All of these girls were terrified of the forest.
Details
10
18 256 The men of Tyros, following the weeping girls with their whips, did not care to enter the forest.
Details
10
18 258 "Do not drive us into the forest!" begged Cara.
Details
10
18 263 Weeping, the two girls sprang to their feet and ran to the edge of the forest and, trying not to enter into its shadows, rapidly, weeping, began to break branches and gather wood.
Details
10
18 271 But, too, they feared the forest, the darkness, the animals.
Details
10
18 273 The forest at night, with its sounds, its perils, the teeth and claws of its predators, was a nightmare of terror for them.
Details
10
18 280 "And deeper in the forest," said he.
Details
10
18 285 From far off, in the forest, came the snarling cry of a panther.
Details
10
18 324 There would be wonderment at that, of course, for the girls had been only girls of the civilized city, thought to be terrified of the forest night.
Details
10
18 354 "To the edge of the forest, Slaves," I told them.
Details
10
18 355 At the fringe of the forest, overlooking the sloping beach, covered with its stones, and, lower, with its sand, I found a strong, slender tree, with an outjutting branch some five feet from the ground, the branch facing away from the water.
Details
10
18 496 I took Cara into the woods, a hundred yards or so from the forest's edge.
Details
10
18 503 I returned to the edge of the forest.
Details
10
18 506 I called to Tina, softly, from the shadows of the forest.
Details

18 556 "But there were sleen, panthers, in the forest.

18 560 "I cannot live in the forest," she wept.

18 658 From the shadows of the forest I observed the lanterns.

19 17 Many of them took up positions about the palisade; others scouted the beach to the north, and the nearby forest edges.
Details
10
19 28 Today, concealed in the forest, I had seen men cutting more logs.
Details
10
19 33 As the men had worked on these logs, fastening them into rafts, slaves, Marlenus and the others, male and female, had been forced to stand between the rafts and the forest.
Details
10
19 35 I could have slain some men cutting in the forest, but little would have been accomplished.
Details
10
19 39 They could shield themselves, either with wood or slaves, from the forest.

19 42 I did not wish to expose myself on the beach, permitting them the cover of the forest.

19 52 She would dare not reveal to him her capture and return, thus making clear her role in the affair of the wine, but she might well convince him of what she believed, what she had mistakenly inferred from her experiences in the forest, while blindfolded, while being interrogated by Vinca.
Details
10
19 56 It would be dangerous, and perhaps futile, to follow them under the cover of the forest.
Details
10
19 80 "I found no one in the forest," said another.

19 118 It was I to whom she had submitted herself in the forest.

21 141 But scarcely had the peasant giant cried out than, from the darkness about the stockade, and toward the forest, we heard the surprised cries, and screams, of startled, unexpectedly caught females.
Details
10
21 146 In a moment, men, those of Marlenus' men, and mine, who had been chained in the forest, appeared at the gate of the stockade.
Details
10
21 156 Cara had carried the tools I had stolen from the Rhoda, a heavy hammer and a chisel, into the forest.
Details
10
21 166 They had come prepared, though naked, to make war, though it be with but the branches of trees and the stones of the forest.
Details
10
21 171 She had wished to carry the tools into the forest, but in her own way, free.
Details
10
21 173 She would, accordingly, if she did not find Vinca and the chained men, perish in the forest.

10
22 14 Grenna, too, who had once been Hura's lieutenant, whom I had captured in the forest, was bound in the same coffle.
Details
10
22 16 Among the men, clad, too, like Verna's women, in skins, were Marlenus' own slave girls, those who had been brought to the forest by him, who, like the others, had been captured at his camp.
Details
10
22 129 Together we turned to face the forest, and waited.
Details
10
22 139 "I found this slave in the forest," said Verna.
Details
10
22 145 She had kept her her prisoner in the forest.

22 599 Marlenus and his men disappeared into the forest.
Details
10
22 636 I felt her kiss my hand, and then she went to Thurnock, that he might remove her collar, that she, like Verna, might disappear into the forest.
Details
10
22 671 Then suddenly one girl turned from the forest and fled to a crewman, kneeling before him, back on her heels, head down, arms extended, wrists crossed as though for binding.
Details
10
22 680 In the forest Verna would wait for her women, until she understood that they were not coming.
Details
10
22 732 I wondered if, in the forest, she had expected any of them to return to her.
Details
10
22 769 Doubtless now, alone, somewhere within the forest, in freedom and solitude, there was a panther girl.

18 131 He was supposing it would be immaterial to the hunters whether he was brought down by sleen, which might have been wild sleen of the forest, one might speculate, or slain, supposedly by accident, with a cast of the mighty Kur spear.
Details
10
18 133 He could see forest over his head in the cylinder, as well as about him.
Details
10
18 135 He was interested, too, to note, as he waited, that a film of water, a dense humidity, emerged from various concealed conduits, about him, and doubtless above him, as well, high overhead in the ceiling forest.
Details
10
18 139 The bath of moisture much accentuated the freshness and fragrance of the forest.

18 159 The eight Kurii were now emerged from the forest and were rather at the bottom of the small escarpment.
Details
10
19 18 A Kur roar, abrupt, definitive, emanated from the forest, and the power weapons were lowered.

19 26 But the machine which now emerged, stalking, from the forest, must have been ten to twelve feet at the shoulder.

10
19 87 The body would be left for the beasts of the forest.

19 142 "We came to the forest," said the machine, "upon being apprised of your possible danger by Peisistratus, human".

20 135 "He sought her in the forest world, and soon found her, near the port, and freed her".

10
20 149 "Once freed, she tried to flee from him, even into the forest, but he easily overtook her".

10
21 12 And would it not be demeaning to you, beloved of Agamemnon, to be caged alone, and I left free?" "I learned from Agamemnon, in the forest, he the metal larl, or within it, somehow, or controlling it, somehow, that you are his human".

10
21 26 "But it sounds not like music, but rather like throbbings, like the wind in the forest, like rushing streams, subtle, distant, sometimes cries, as of seized, frightened animals, such things".

10
29 236 She smiled in the dusk, and lifted two handfuls of berries, her gleanings in the forest.
Details
10
29 243 This trove of combustibles had been fetched earlier by the slave, while Cabot had investigated the beach, and prowled within the forest, discovering however no sign of Lord Grendel or the Lady Bina.
Details
10
29 246 While in the forest Cabot had procured a long, sharpened stick.
Details
10
29 248 As yet, Cabot had kindled no fire, but expected to do so later, perhaps the next evening, and then withdraw from it, to the forest, to see who might come, if any, to inquire.
Details
10
29 332 "It is safer for you out here, at night, is it not, big fellow?" Cabot asked the saurian, and he then turned about and climbed the slope toward the forest edge.

43 175 "You yourself kissed me," she said, "in the forest world".
Details
10
44 59 "Do you think it wise?" asked Lord Grendel, "to teach the bow to the forest people?" "Yes," said Cabot, "but perhaps not to the killer humans".
Details
10
44 60 Those from the forest world, it might be noted, were also being taught speech.
Details
10
44 303 Several humans, too, particularly of the forest humans, were now becoming adept with the bow.
Details
10
47 15 "Come with us!" cried a fellow, one from the forest cylinder.

Details

57 1 What Occurred in the Camp of Lord Grendel The gate of the forest camp of Lord Grendel swung open, and an astonished, elated Peisistratus, who had governed the camp in the absence of its lord, rushed forward, stumbling, half-speechless, bewildered.
Details
10
64 118 In Lord Grendel's camps, that of the forest, and that later within their lines, she had been terrified to protest her innocence or even to speak, as she had been warned that her tongue might be torn out.
Details
10
67 24 With these they might burn out a swath of forest, yards wide, with a single charge.
Details
10
67 35 Cabot had no particular destination in mind but he found his steps tending toward Lord Grendel's abandoned forest camp.
Details
10
67 110 He thought of the forest humans, of the men of Peisistratus in the pleasure cylinder, of killer humans, bred for arena games, of the ponderous cattle humans, bred for stupidity and meat.
Details

68 1 An Encounter in the Forest "Do not loose your arrow, if you are so armed!" called the Kur.

68 56 "Why are you here, alone? What are you doing, here, alone, in the forest?" But the two Kurii had then disappeared into the darkness, amongst the trees.

10
70 1 Flavion It may be recalled, from some time ago, that Cabot, perhaps surprisingly, given that he stood high in the forest camp, and was of the scarlet caste, had tended to the grooming of the scout, Flavion, an office commonly attended to, amongst the lords, by clients and sycophants, and, most ofte...
Details
10
70 12 First, Ramar had been given the scent from the cloth, and, though the scent was old, it was not difficult for a sleen to follow once it had picked it up, which it had, in the forest.
Details
10
70 45 It may be recalled he had retrained the sleen in the forest, beginning with the translator, to substitute Gorean for Kur, such that the animal would now respond only to Gorean, and, as is usual with a sleen and single trainer, only to the particular trainer's commands.
Details
10
71 16 Cabot had two power weapons, one from the forest camp, and one which had been Flavion's.
Details
10
73 43 "My people," said Archon, "may return to the forest world, or remain here, or voyage to Gor".
Details
10
73 96 "Had you not so precipitately sought Flavion," said Lord Grendel, "had you waited for me, had you not rushed off, into the forest, as I learned, I might have spared you some effort".
Details
10
73 98 "I gather," said Lord Grendel, "you believed that a certain slave, who had fled our forest camp, certainly an unwise thing to do, and a most serious offense, one whose gravity she may not have fully understood, had fallen into the company of Flavion".

74 50 Lord Arcesilaus sat on a dais, at the head of a hundred tables, with Lord Zarendargar, Lord Grendel, and Statius; and Archon, of the forest humans, and Cestiphon, of the killer humans, sat with them.
Details
10
74 185 "I am going to venture into the forest," said Cabot.
Details
10
74 190 "And what," asked Lord Grendel, "is that reason which lies open, and comprehensible, to all?" "To take a slave into the forest, far from civilization, and do with her as I will," Cabot said.
Details
10
75 4 They were deep in the forest.
Details
10
75 8 He was no longer in festive regalia, but a simple tunic, mottled with greens and browns, colors such as might be found in certain natural backgrounds, say, that of forest, a traveling cloak, similarly configured, and the bootlike sandals common to soldiers, and travelers.
Details
10
75 25 The first day in the forest, Ramar, the great sleen, had joined them.
Details
10
75 70 He sat nearby, not sleeping, considering the forest.

76 6 This was sufficient, and the collar would mark her as what she was, should she encounter anyone in the forest.

10
77 1 What Occurred Later in the Forest Camp "May I speak, Master?" she asked.
Details
10
77 121 Do you truly think I would fear to violate it, here, far from the habitats, here, in the forest?" "My intention," said Cabot, "is not to rely on the amnesty for my security, but rather that matters be so arranged that I may see it explicitly repudiated".
Details
10
77 126 Doubtless Cabot wished that the slave might have reached the safety of the forest, a desiderated outcome, where she might, a fleet, collared human female, have managed to elude a lame Kur, but he was not surprised when she failed to do so.
Details
10
77 262 Cabot had come to the forest camp, that Flavion would follow.
Details
10
77 267 For example, it would presumably have been easy enough for Cabot, bow in hand, and a quiver filled with the birds of death, to have slain Flavion days ago, in the forest.
Details
10
78 3 We have noted, briefly, the arrival of Lord Grendel at the forest camp.
Details
10
78 142 * * * * It may be recalled that some days ago Lord Grendel, well in advance of certain human allies, arrived at the forest camp.
Details
10
78 165 Lord Grendel later cut off the head, and then sacked the body, and its parts, and dragged them into the forest, where he emptied them, for the feeding of birds, and small animals.
Details
10
79 113 She then recalled that before, in the forest, when she had been put in whip position, she had been fastened, her hands over her head, rather in the open, to a thick, overhead branch.
Details
10
79 204 The men he had brought into the forest, to abet the mission of Lord Grendel, were thus a tiny fraction of his men; but they were picked men, men muchly trusted, men often relied on.
Details
10
79 207 Too, of course, this was a remote forest camp, away from the habitats, and free Kur females, and the men were, after all, Goreans.
Details
10
79 354 Doubtless, after the feast, as he had regained his composure, she would serve him again, for perhaps one or two Ahn, or more, perhaps until the forest, in its softness, and dampness, was ready to awaken.

12 38 This made sense to me, as whatever might be afoot in the forest would not be likely to be of sufficient size and potency to effect much success against Gorean cities with their own tarn forces, which might number in the hundreds and, as of old, in Ar, in their thousands.
