Chapter # Sentence # Quote Confidence
10 56 Shortly after the first "knock off," in which the ball is served to the enemy, Gorm, who was Ivar's partner, was struck cold with the ball, it driven from an opponent's bat; this, I gathered, is a common trick; it is very difficult to intercept or protect oneself from a ball struck at one with great...

6 1 Ivar Forkbeard's Long Hall There was a great cheer from the men of Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
6 517 Ivar Forkbeard stood up; both bondmaids looked up at him, touching him; "Run to the furs," said Ivar Forkbeard, "both of you!" Both girls quickly fled to his furs.
Details
10
8 206 "Never, never," she said, "let me fall into the hands of Ivar Forkbeard!" "I am Ivar Forkbeard," said Forkbeard.
Details
10

Details
10
2 127 There had been much fear in Kassau when the ship of Ivar Forkbeard had entered the inlet.
Details
10
2 236 Ivar Forkbeard, in death, if not in life, was making pilgrimage to the temple, that his bones might be anointed at the hands of the High Initiate, would he so graciously deign to do so.
Details
10
2 241 Ivar Forkbeard, the unregenerate, the raider, the pirate, he who had dared to make the fist of the hammer over his ale, would come at last, in death if not in life, humbly to the temple of Priest-Kings.
Details
10
2 283 Twelve of them had gone down to the ship, with candles, to escort the body of Ivar Forkbeard to the temple.
Details
10
2 288 Ivar Forkbeard, I thought to myself, must have been a large man.
Details
10
2 292 So this is the end, I thought to myself, of the great Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
2 295 Somehow I regretted that Ivar Forkbeard was dead.
Details
10
2 313 It was incredible honor that was being shown to these men, that they might, themselves, on the platform of crossed spears, carry the body of Ivar Forkbeard, in death penitent, to the high steps of the great altar.
Details
10
2 318 Ivar Forkbeard's body was not anointed as it was carried through the gate in the rail.
Details
10
2 321 The four men of Torvaldsland carried the huge body of Ivar Forkbeard up the steps of the altar, on the crossed spears.
Details
10
2 325 When the High Initiate finished his prayer, the other Initiates began to sing a solemn hymn, while the High Initiate, at the altar, his back turned to the congregation, began to prepare, with words and signs, the grease of Priest-Kings, for the anointing of the bones of Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
2 329 Such men, these, would be the hardest of the hard, for only the largest, the swiftest and finest might win for themselves a bench on the ship of a captain, and the man great enough to command such as they must be first and mightiest among them, for the men of Torvaldsland will obey no other, and tha...
Details
10
2 330 But Ivar Forkbeard had come in death, if not in life, to the temple of Priest-Kings, betraying the old gods, to have his bones anointed at last with the grease of Priest-Kings.
Details
10
2 347 He bent down, on one knee, the tiny, rounded, golden box containing the grease of Priest-Kings in his left hand, and drew back with his right hand the long, white shroud concealing the body of Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
2 350 The eyes of the Forkbeard opened, and Ivar Forkbeard grinned at him.
Details
10
2 351 With a roar of laughter, hurling the shroud from him, to the horror of the High Initiate, and other Initiates, and the congregation, Ivar Forkbeard, almost seven feet in height, leaped to his feet, in his right hand clutching a great, curved, single-bladed ax of hardened iron.
Details
10
2 358 Ivar Forkbeard stood on the high altar.
Details
10
3 1 I Make the Acquaintance of Ivar Forkbeard And Book Passage on His Ship Screaming pierced my ears.
Details
10
3 15 From the high altar, standing upon it, Ivar Forkbeard directed his men.
Details
10
3 68 I turned and swept to the guard position, in the instant seeing the man's distance, and spun again to strike from my body, before it could penetrate it, the hurled spear of Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
3 72 He pulled up short, and looked to Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
3 80 "He remains standing," said Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
3 84 Ivar Forkbeard leaped down from the altar and began, angrily, to hurl vessels of consecrated oils against the walls behind the sanctuary.
Details
10
3 94 Ivar Forkbeard, in the light of the burning wall of the temple, quickly examined the line of women.
Details
10
3 114 "Go to the bondmaid circle," said Ivar Forkbeard, indicating the circle he had drawn in the dirt.
Details
10
3 130 "Yes!" "Five nights from this night," said Ivar Forkbeard, "on the skerry of Einar—by the rune-stone of the Torvaldsmark".
Details
10
3 137 "Go to the bondmaid circle," said Ivar Forkbeard to the large girl, "but do not enter it".
Details
10
3 147 "Go to the circle and enter it," said Ivar Forkbeard to the girl.
Details
10
3 161 Ivar Forkbeard laughed and reached down and pulled her up by the arm, his great fist closed about her arm within the white woolen blouse, and thrust her stumbling well within the circle.
Details
10
3 164 "Bondmaids," ordered Ivar Forkbeard harshly, "strip!" Crying out the girls removed their garments.
Details
10
3 169 "Fetter them," said Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
3 182 Ivar Forkbeard regarded Aelgifu.
Details
10
3 199 "In the north, my pretty maids," Ivar assured them, "the burdens you carry will be more prosaic, bundles of wood for the fires, buckets of water for the hall, baskets of dung for the fields".
Details
10
3 205 "Be silent, bondmaid," said Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
3 207 "We shall see," laughed Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
3 215 Standing on the broken fragments of the circle, Ivar Forkbeard cried out, his ax lifted, and his left hand, too, "Praise be to Odin!" And then, throwing his ax to his left shoulder, holding it there by his left hand he turned and faced the Sardar, and lifted his fist, clenched.
Details
10
3 219 "Nor shall we," laughed Ivar.
Details
10
3 221 "Leave it for the people to see," laughed Ivar.
Details
10
3 228 "Less mad I expect than Ivar Forkbeard," I said.
Details
10
3 238 Of all those in the temple, I think only I, and Ivar Forkbeard, and the giant, he of incredible stature, who had fought with such frenzy, did not seem anxious.
Details
10
3 241 "I, too, am skilled at the game," said Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
3 256 "Open the other gate!" cried Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
3 259 Ivar permitted them to leave the temple.
Details
10
3 262 "Now let us leave," said Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
3 264 "You will hurry, pretty little bondmaids, and you, too, my large-breasted lovely," said Ivar, indicating black-velveted Aelgifu, "or you will be cut out of the coffle by your heads".
Details
10
3 272 Swiftly, down the dirt street to the wharves from the temple, striding, but not running, moved Ivar Forkbeard with his men, and his loot, both that of female flesh and gold.
Details
10
3 286 Ivar Forkbeard then took Aelgifu by the hair and turned her, so that those following might see.
Details
10
3 291 "Do not fight them! Let them go!" Ivar Forkbeard released Aelgifu and thrust her rudely, stumbling, ahead of him.
Details
10
3 292 "Hurry!" called Ivar Forkbeard to his men.
Details
10
3 300 "You see," cried the blond girl, delightedly, "my bondage is short!" "Citizens of Kassau!" called out Ivar Forkbeard cheerily.
Details
10
3 301 "Greetings from Ivar Forkbeard!" The men looked at him, tense, hunched over, weapons ready, angry.
Details
10
3 313 Ivar Forkbeard reached out his hands and took from one of his men the bowl of coins which the poor had brought as their pitiful offerings to the temple of Kassau.
Details
10
3 320 Then, with a great, sweeping gesture, Ivar Forkbeard emptied the bowl of coins, scattering them in a shower of copper and iron over the men.
Details
10
3 328 We brushed through the scrabbling workers and saw before us the wharf, and the serpent, sleek and swift, of Ivar Forkbeard, at its moorings.
Details
10
3 335 The men of Ivar Forkbeard threw their bulging cloaks, filled with gold and plate, into the ship.
Details
10
3 336 Ivar Forkbeard looked back.
Details
10
3 342 "Do not delay overlong," suggested Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
3 364 "Do not fire," called Ivar Forkbeard to his bowmen.
Details
10
3 368 "Cast off," said Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
3 379 It seemed Aelgifu, proud and rich, would go barefoot, like a peasant wench or a stripped bondmaid, by the will of Ivar Forkbeard, until her ransom was paid on the skerry of Einar five nights from this night, by the rune-stone of the Torvaldsmark.
Details
10
3 381 Ivar Forkbeard went to the bondmaids.
Details
10
3 392 Ivar Forkbeard reached down to the planking on the deck and picked up Aelgifu's shoes and hose, where they had been discarded when they had been removed and her ankles bound.
Details
10
3 411 The men of Torvaldsland singing, the oars lifting and dipping, the serpent of Ivar Forkbeard took its way from the harbor of Kassau.
Details
10
4 1 The Forkbeard and I Return to Our Game Ivar Forkbeard, leaning over the side of his serpent, studied the coloring of the water.
Details
10
4 6 "There is plankton here," said Ivar, "that of the banks south of the skerry of Einar, and the temperature of the water tells me that we are now in the stream of Torvald, which moves eastward to the coast and then north".
Details
10
4 20 Ivar Forkbeard went to the mast.
Details
10
4 27 "Tomorrow night," said Ivar Forkbeard to her, "I shall have your ransom money".
Details
10
4 169 For a clinker-built ship, the serpent of Ivar Forkbeard was extraordinarily tight.
Details
10
4 303 Ivar Forkbeard approached Aelgifu with the small bowl of gruel.
Details
10
5 2 The men of Ivar Forkbeard, too, suddenly came alive.
Details
10
5 7 "Do not disturb the arrangement of the pieces," said Ivar Forkbeard, leaving the board.
Details
10
5 31 "We have time," said Ivar Forkbeard, "for another move or two".
Details
10
5 45 "Excellent," said Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
5 49 "He is an enemy," said Ivar Forkbeard, simply.
Details
10
5 51 "The shipping of Port Kar," smiled Ivar Forkbeard, "is not uniquely distinguished in this respect".
Details
10
5 70 "You play Kaissa well," had said Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
5 81 "Shall I get the great bow from my belongings?" I asked Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
5 94 "It has a much higher freeboard area than this vessel," I told Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
5 101 "It has forty benches," said Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
5 110 "When I engage Thorgard of Scagnar," said Ivar Forkbeard, "I shall do so to my advantage, not his".
Details
10
5 112 "Do not disturb the pieces," said Ivar, getting up.
Details
10
5 117 Ivar Forkbeard went to him, as might have a father, and took his head in his hands, and held it against his chest.
Details
10
5 133 "That will encourage them to row their best," said Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
5 140 "Throw the bondmaids between the benches and secure them," said Ivar, to those steadying them at the rail.
Details
10
5 144 "You on the starboard side, display now the loot of Kassau's temple!" Rowers of Ivar Forkbeard now took their place at the port side.
Details
10
5 172 "Benches!" laughed Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
5 176 "Stroke!" called Ivar.
Details
10
5 180 The prow of the serpent of Ivar Forkbeard leaped from the water and its stern went almost awash.
Details
10
5 183 The serpent of Ivar Forkbeard leaped toward the line of the horizon.
Details
10
5 189 Another javelin, and four more arrows, sped to the ship of Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
5 204 Under sail alone the serpent of Ivar Forkbeard, almost scornfully, left her behind.
Details
10
5 214 "Take course," said Ivar Forkbeard, to his helmsman, "for the skerry of Einar".
Details
10
5 217 It was there, at the rune-stone of the Torvaldsmark, that Ivar Forkbeard would receive her ransom.
Details
10
5 219 "I did not think it would be," said Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
5 221 What is the name of your ship, if I may know?" "The name of my ship," said Ivar, "is the Hilda".
Details
10
5 225 "That is the name of the daughter of Thorgard of Scagnar," said Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
5 227 "The Hilda is my ship," said Ivar Forkbeard, "and the daughter of Thorgard of Scagnar will be my bondmaid".
Details
10
5 230 There was silence on the ship of Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
5 231 Ivar, and four men, had taken the longboat, which is tied, keel up, on the decking of the after quarter, and made their way to the skerry.
Details
10
5 233 Gorm, who seemed second to Ivar, and I, stood at the railing near the prow on the port side of the serpent.
Details
10
5 236 Ivar had left the ship in good humor.
Details
10
5 243 "Have you a coin you wish to check?" had asked Ivar, seriously, of me.
Details
10
5 258 "The worst," said Ivar Forkbeard, "is likely to be the coinage of Lydius".
Details
10
5 271 "I have two pair of scales," admitted Ivar Forkbeard, grinning.
Details
10
5 277 But now, with Gorm, and the men of Ivar Forkbeard, I waited, in silence, on his serpent.
Details
10
6 11 Ivar Forkbeard, at the prow, lifted a great, curved bronze horn and blew a blast.
Details
10
6 26 Again Ivar Forkbeard winded the great bronze horn.
Details
10
6 66 It would be holiday, I gathered, at the hall of Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
6 77 Ivar Forkbeard, crying out, leaped from moving oar to moving oar, proceeding from the oars nearest the stem on the port side to the stern, then leaping back onto the deck at the stern quarter and leaping again on the oars, this time on the starboard side, and proceeding from the oar nearest the ster...
Details
10
6 82 The serpent of Ivar Forkbeard, gently, slid against the rolls of leather hung at the side of the dock.
Details
10
6 86 "I have eighteen others!" called Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
6 102 The slender, blond girl, the hand of Ivar Forkbeard on her arm, was thrust to the head of the gangplank.
Details
10
6 104 Gorm then stood beside Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
6 111 "Drink," said Ivar Forkbeard, thrusting the cup into the hands of the slender, blond girl, she who had, so long ago, in the temple of Kassau, worn the snood of scarlet yarn, with twisted golden wire, the red vest and skirt, the white blouse.
Details
10
6 127 One by one, the prizes of Ivar Forkbeard, even the rich, proud Aelgifu, were forced to down the slave wine.
Details
10
6 129 Ivar Forkbeard then, followed by Gorm, and myself, and his men, descended the gangplank.
Details
10
6 154 "Ottar enjoys sport," said Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
6 159 Ottar, in the absence of Ivar Forkbeard, kept his cattle, his properties, his farm and accounts.
Details
10
6 242 "Remove your clothing, my pretty one," said Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
6 247 Ivar licked his lips.
Details
10
6 250 "Will she not be a tasty morsel indeed?" Ivar asked his men.
Details
10
6 253 "Run to the iron, wench," suddenly commanded Ivar Forkbeard, harshly.
Details
10
6 294 "Hurry, Bondmaids!" cried Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
6 296 * * * * Ivar Forkbeard roared with laughter, his head back.
Details
10
6 310 The hall of Ivar Forkbeard, I learned, to my surprise, was of a type much more common.
Details
10
6 318 The hall of Ivar Forkbeard was a longhouse.
Details
10
6 343 With his belt knife, thrusting Pudding and Gunnhild back, Ivar Forkbeard addressed himself to the cutting of the meat.
Details
10
6 350 "Well," said Ivar Forkbeard to me, "I am an outlaw".
Details
10
6 359 I tore a piece of meat from what Ivar had thrown me and held it to Thyri.
Details
10
6 368 "Why did you come to Torvaldsland?" suddenly asked Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
6 371 "They are dangerous," said Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
6 374 Ivar looked at him.
Details
10
6 378 "Doubtless he has left the district," said Ivar.
Details
10
6 380 "No," said Ivar.
Details
10
6 384 "That is known to me," said Ivar.
Details
10
6 385 I did not tell Ivar that those he knew as Kurii, or the beasts, were actually specimens of an alien race, that they, or those in their ships, were locked in war with Priest-Kings for the domination of two worlds, Gor and the Earth.
Details
10
6 404 "How will you know the one of the Kurii whom you seek?" asked Ivar.
Details
10
6 406 "You are a brave, or foolish, man," said Ivar.
Details
10
6 409 "You are of the south," said Ivar.
Details
10
6 413 I saw several of the bondmaids in the arms of Ivar's men.
Details
10
6 420 "Your bondmaid begs you not to stop!" "I am an outlaw," said Ivar.
Details
10
6 430 "He was my Jarl," said Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
6 434 "And thus," said I, "that your outlawry would remain in effect until you were apprehended or slain?" "He hoped to drive me from Torvaldsland," said Ivar.
Details
10
6 436 Ivar grinned.
Details
10
6 439 "How much," asked I, "is the wergild?" "A hundred stone of gold," said Ivar.
Details
10
6 443 "Are you not surprised?" asked Ivar.
Details
10
6 445 "You know, however, what I did in the south?" asked Ivar.
Details
10
6 451 "Now," laughed Ivar Forkbeard, "I expect that these nights Svein Blue Tooth rests less well in his furs".
Details
10
6 453 "But there is one thing more which the Blue Tooth demanded of me," said Ivar.
Details
10
6 460 "You are of Port Kar," said Ivar.
Details
10
6 465 "Would you say," asked Ivar, "that he is your enemy?" "Yes," I said, "I would say that he is my enemy".
Details
10
6 466 "You hunt one of the Kurii," said Ivar.
Details
10
6 473 "I think, soon," said he, "his daughter might be fetched to the hall of Ivar Forkbeard".
Details
10
6 489 "Feast!" called Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
6 491 Though the hall of Ivar Forkbeard was built only of turf and stone, and though he himself was outlaw, he had met me at its door, after I had been bidden wait outside, in his finest garments of scarlet and gold, and carrying a bowl of water and a towel.
Details
10
6 492 "Welcome to the hall of Ivar Forkbeard," he had said.
Details
10
7 88 "It is not bad bread," said Ivar Forkbeard to me, when she had disappeared from sight.
Details
10
7 176 "I hear, Red Hair," said Ivar Forkbeard, "that your lessons with the ax proceed well".
Details
10
7 178 "I, too, am pleased that he should think so," said Ivar Forkbeard, "for that is indication that it is true".
Details
10
7 183 "That we are pleased to feast," said Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
7 208 "Red Hair!" called Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
7 211 Outside were gathered several men, both of Ivar's ship and of the farm.
Details
10
7 215 Then, on a height, from which we could see, far below, the farm and ship of Ivar Forkbeard, we stopped.
Details
10
7 225 "Do you not know," asked Ivar Forkbeard, "of what animal this is the work?" "No," I said.
Details
10
7 236 There might, for all we knew, be somewhere in the lands of Ivar Forkbeard one of the Kurii.
Details
10
7 300 "No!" cried Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
7 304 "Get it out of here," said Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
7 322 "Kurii," said Ivar Forkbeard, "are fond of human flesh".
Details
10
7 330 "Kill it," said Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
7 332 "No," said Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
8 127 Ivar Forkbeard quickly pulled the bracelets and rings from her wrists and fingers.
Details
10
8 130 Ivar tore the golden string from her hair, loosening it.
Details
10
8 143 Ivar's dagger was at her throat.
Details
10
8 150 "No," said Ivar.
Details
10
8 164 "You are fools! You will never get me past the guards!" "I have no intention of getting you past the guards," said Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
8 168 Ivar went to the window.
Details
10
8 175 Below, at the nineteenth hour, in the longboat of Ivar's ship, was Gorm, with four oarsmen.
Details
10
8 178 "Remove, and swiftly," said she, "these disgusting fetters!" Ivar Forkbeard went to the door of her room and, silently, slipped the two beams into place, in their iron brackets.
Details
10
8 180 Her throat, where Ivar had torn away the collar of the green gown, was now bared.
Details
10
8 187 Ivar Forkbeard then bent to the girl's feet and pulled away her golden shoes, and, his hands at her legs, she, her eyes closed, removed from her, too, her scarlet, silken hose, of the style of Ar.
Details
10
8 205 "What is that?" asked Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
8 273 "What has Thorgard of Scagnar to do with such a beast?" smiled Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
8 275 "Doubtless it means nothing," said Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
8 278 "I have an appointment with Svein Blue Tooth," said Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
8 284 "But surely," I said, "you will not dare, an outlaw, attend the Thing?" "Perhaps," said Ivar.
Details
10
8 288 "Perhaps the one you hunt," said Ivar, "is even now within the holding of Thorgard of Scagnar".
Details
10
8 293 "How will you know the one of the Kurii whom you seek?" Ivar had asked me, in his hall.
Details
10
8 307 "Let us go," said I to Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
9 5 About me I heard the joyous cries of the men of Ivar's farm, the excited cries of bondmaids.
Details
10
9 6 Ivar Forkbeard crushed to his leather Pudding and Gunnhild, kissing first one and then the other, as each eagerly sought his lips, their hands, too, those of bondmaids, eager upon his body.
Details
10
9 44 On the second day, it had been thrust up only that the spike of a water bag could be thrust between her teeth, and then replaced; on her third day the coverlet was torn away and, with the scarf, thrown overboard; Ivar Forkbeard, on that day, watered her and, with a spoon, fed her a bit of bondmaid g...
Details
10
9 80 Ivar Forkbeard left the dock, his arms about Pudding and Gunnhild, who leaned against him.
Details
10
9 97 "You have taught me to heel," she said, "Ivar Forkbeard, but you have not taught me to obey!" "Strip her," said the Forkbeard to the bondmaids.
Details
10
9 115 "How dare you place me in this position, Ivar Forkbeard!" she demanded.
Details
10
9 116 "I am a free woman!" "Bring the five-strap slave slash," said Ivar Forkbeard to Gunnhild.
Details
10
9 121 The lash was placed by Gunnhild in the hand of Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
9 130 "I will obey you!" Ivar Forkbeard, experienced in the disciplining of women, did not deliver the second stroke for a full Ehn.
Details
10
9 163 "Yes, Ivar Forkbeard," she said.
Details
10
9 167 "Tonight we feast," said Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
9 172 "Yes," said Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
9 175 "Yes," said she, "Ivar Forkbeard".
Details
10
9 195 "Mead!" called Ivar Forkbeard, from across from me.
Details
10
9 204 Mighty insult had thus been wrought upon Thorgard of Scagnar, enemy of Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
9 207 Rich was the pleasure of Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
9 215 "Do not misunderstand me, Ivar Forkbeard," whispered Hilda.
Details
10
9 230 "Are you not curious," asked Ivar of the daughter of Thorgard of Scagnar, "what it would be to feel on your body their hands, their mouths?" "Men are beasts!" she cried.
Details
10
9 243 "Silence!" called out Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
9 245 "What," asked Ivar Forkbeard of Hilda, "if I should order you to the furs?" "I would obey you immediately," she said.
Details
10
9 247 "But of your own free will you would be unlikely to enter upon the furs?" asked Ivar.
Details
10
9 278 Late and fully were we feasting when the thrall-boy, tugging on the sleeve of Ivar Forkbeard, said to him, "My Jarl, the wench in the ice shed begs to be freed".
Details
10
9 285 Ivar was fond of him.
Details
10
9 302 "Please," she wept, piteously, "I beg to be permitted to run to the furs of Ivar Forkbeard".
Details
10
9 333 "I beg to share your furs, Ivar Forkbeard," she wept.
Details
10
9 342 "Mead!" called Ivar Forkbeard, returning to the table.
Details
10
9 344 "Please come to my side, Ivar Forkbeard!" wept Hilda.
Details
10
9 361 I bet on Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
9 362 Within an Ahn, Hilda the Haughty, to the jeers of men, the taunts of bondmaids, on her hands and knees, head down, hair falling forward, crept to the circle of the bondmaid, which Ivar Forkbeard had drawn in the dirt of the hall floor, between the posts.
Details
10
9 367 "I am yours, Ivar Forkbeard," she said.
Details
10
9 374 Even now she was, kneeling on his furs, being fettered by the keeper of Ivar Forkbeard's farm.
Details
10
9 475 Ivar Forkbeard, not wisely perhaps, was determined to attend the Thing.
Details
10
10 58 Ivar then asked me to be his partner.
Details
10
10 60 "It is all right," said Ivar, "even the bravest of men may decline a contest of bat-and-ball".
Details
10
10 63 Ivar Forkbeard, or Thorgeir of Ax Glacier, as we might call him, had won, all told, counting the swimming talmit, six talmits.
Details
10
10 66 "Let us, this afternoon," said Ivar Forkbeard, "give ourselves to strolling".
Details
10
10 112 "High-farm girls!" she whispered, as she passed the bondmaids of Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
10 122 The bondmaids of Ivar Forkbeard laughed delightedly.
Details
10
10 161 "He is a famous champion," said Ivar, whispering to me, nodding to the large, burly fellow.
Details
10
10 173 "I do not care much for the making of women of Torvaldsland bond," said Ivar.
Details
10
10 180 "Why do you not challenge a baby?" asked Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
10 184 "Will she be branded there, and collared?" asked Ivar.
Details
10
10 186 "She is of Torvaldsland," said Ivar.
Details
10
10 191 Ivar looked at me.
Details
10
10 295 I noted that the bondmaids of Ivar Forkbeard attracted more than their expected share of attention.
Details
10
10 297 "Your girls walk well," I told Ivar.
Details
10
10 300 The girls wore their kirtles as they did not simply that the riches owned by Ivar Forkbeard might be well displayed, the better to excite the envy of others and brighten his vanity, but for another reason as well; the female slave, knowing she is slave, finds it stimulating to be exposed to the insp...
Details
10
10 327 "To the platform!" roared Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
10 443 "Should this thrall," she asked, indicating Tarsk, once Wulfstan of Kassau, "be permitted to look upon the beauty of bondmaids?" "What do you mean?" asked Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
10 452 "I think," said Ivar Forkbeard, "that I will send him back to the tent".
Details
10
10 616 Ivar Forkbeard had won six talmits.
Details
10
11 97 "They do not have white fur," said I to Ivar Forkbeard, standing now beside me.
Details
10
11 125 Beside me, Ivar Forkbeard, too, laughed, and then others.
Details
10
11 166 "What crop," asked Ivar Forkbeard, who wore a hood, of the platform, "do the Kurii most favor in their agricultural pursuits?" I saw the ears of the Kur lie swiftly back against its head.
Details
10
11 173 Ivar then spoke swiftly to one of his men.
Details
10
11 256 Would we have offered as much to a herd of cattle that might stand between us and a desired destination? I saw then the man of Ivar Forkbeard, whom he had earlier sent from his side, climbing to the platform.
Details
10
11 266 The Jarl, then, took, from the hands of Ivar Forkbeard's man, the leather-wrapped object.
Details
10
11 295 "We are done with them," said Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
11 299 "I have won six talmits," Ivar Forkbeard reminded me.
Details
10
11 308 "It is the Torvaldsberg," said Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
11 310 "In the legends, it is said that Torvald sleeps in the mountain," smiled Ivar Forkbeard, "to awaken when, once more, he is needed in Torvaldsland".
Details
10
12 1 Ivar Forkbeard Introduces Himself to Svein Blue Tooth About my forehead were bound two talmits, one which I had won in wrestling, the other in archery.
Details
10
12 25 Ivar Forkbeard had won six talmits.
Details
10
12 43 Ivar Forkbeard, large, robed in gray, hooded in gray, stood beside me.
Details
10
12 49 "He who calls himself Thorgeir of Ax Glacier," proclaimed Svein Blue Tooth, "let him approach!" Ivar Forkbeard eagerly bounded up the stairs toward the dais.
Details
10
12 57 Ivar Forkbeard, Thorgeir of Ax Glacier, now stood, hooded, on the top stair of the dais, before his enemy.
Details
10
12 62 Ivar drew back his head.
Details
10
12 66 Ivar Forkbeard shrugged and spread his hands, as though he had been found out, as though his ruse had failed.
Details
10
12 69 Ivar was silent.
Details
10
12 71 Ivar looked at him, as though startled at his perception.
Details
10
12 77 "Great Jarl," said Ivar Forkbeard, "will you swear upon me the oath of peace, for the time of the Thing, your personal oath, sworn upon the ring of the temple of Thor?" "It is not necessary," said the Blue Tooth, "but, if you wish, this oath I will swear".
Details
10
12 102 Ivar Forkbeard threw back his hood.
Details
10
12 103 "My name is Ivar Forkbeard," he said.
Details
10
13 25 In Ivar Forkbeard's hall, incidentally, the salt distinctions were not drawn; in his hall, all being comrades in arms, all were "above the salt".
Details
10
13 46 Svein Blue Tooth had not been much pleased on the fields of the contests, on his purple-draped dais, when Ivar Forkbeard had announced his identity.
Details
10
13 49 "Seize him!" screamed the Blue Tooth, and had himself clearly intended to lay rude hands on the innocent Forkbeard, but his men had, forcibly, restrained him, they glaring at Ivar Forkbeard with ill-disguised disapproval.
Details
10
13 76 "Yes, it is I, Ivar Forkbeard!" The men-at-arms of Svein Blue Tooth were now uncomfortably close.
Details
10
13 108 Then Svein Blue Tooth, as high jarl in Torvaldsland, one by one, tied about the forehead of Ivar Forkbeard the six talmits.
Details
10
13 114 "You frown upon me, and would put me below the salt," said Ivar Forkbeard, "because I am outlaw".
Details
10
13 119 "No man," said the Blue Tooth, looking suddenly at Ivar Forkbeard, "could pay such wergild as I set for you".
Details
10
13 120 "You have heard," inquired Ivar Forkbeard, "of the freeing of Chenbar, the Sea Sleen, from the dungeons of Port Kar?" He smiled.
Details
10
13 166 I turned to Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
13 188 "Do not fear," said Ivar.
Details
10
13 203 "The Forkbeard greets you!" shouted Ivar.
Details
10
13 227 Had Ivar Forkbeard broken into song I would have given little for our chances.
Details
10
13 239 After the entertainers had been driven from the hall and much food had been eaten, Svein Blue Tooth, who had showed much patience, said to Ivar Forkbeard, "It is my understanding that you believe yourself to have that wherewith your deed's wergild might be met".
Details
10
13 275 Ivar Forkbeard stood behind these riches, and grinned, and spread his hands.
Details
10
13 284 "Oh, my Jarl?" asked Ivar.
Details
10
13 293 "No one, not an army or a fleet," cried another, "could take the daughter of so powerful a Jarl as Thorgard of Scagnar!" "You seem to ask the impossible, my Jarl," observed Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
13 295 "Of you, my friend, Ivar Forkbeard, I choose to ask the impossible".
Details
10
13 345 There was a great cheer from the men in the hall, both those of Ivar Forkbeard and those of Svein Blue Tooth.
Details
10
13 349 She regarded Ivar, and me, and his men, with fury.
Details
10
13 351 "Svein Blue Tooth, Jarl of Torvaldsland, meet Hilda, daughter of Thorgard of Scagnar," said Ivar.
Details
10
13 365 "You see, my Jarl," said she, lifting her head proudly and pulling her rich, glistening robes some inches down upon her shoulders, "I wear the collar of Ivar Forkbeard".
Details
10
13 367 "You have dared to collar the daughter of Thorgard of Scagnar!" cried Bera to Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
13 392 It had been done by the hand of Ivar Forkbeard himself, before dawn, some days ago, shortly before his ship had left for the Thing.
Details
10
13 407 "I think there is some mistake," said Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
13 410 "How is it that the wergild is met?" asked Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
13 425 Then, to the astonishment of all Torvaldsland, and most to that of Svein Blue Tooth, the Forkbeard, redoubtable, after earning six talmits in the contests, delivered to his hall the very wergild no man had supposed it possible to pay, and had then, arrogantly, before the high seat of the Blue Tooth ...
Details
10
14 32 I briefly saw Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
14 84 I saw Ivar Forkbeard nearby.
Details
10
14 105 "Your blade is useless," said Ivar Forkbeard, now standing at my side.
Details
10
14 117 "Spears!" cried Ivar.
Details
10
14 133 "Attack!" cried Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
14 154 I saw Ivar Forkbeard, his sword gone, lost in the body of a nearby Kur, his knife in his hand, one hand thrusting away and upward the jaws of a Kur, repeatedly plunge his knife into the huge chest of the beast.
Details
10
14 175 I saw Ivar Forkbeard, with a spear, set himself against the charge of an unarmed Kur.
Details
10
14 177 The spear's shaft gouged a trench six inches deep behind him, and then stopped, and the Kur, biting in the air, eyes like fire, backed away, and fell backward; Ivar leaped away as another ax sought him.
Details
10
14 188 Ivar Forkbeard, and others, too, were similarly cut off.
Details
10
14 215 I saw Ivar Forkbeard standing among the huddled men near the western wall of the hall.
Details
10
14 277 "Follow me," cried Ivar.
Details
10
15 2 Ivar and I looked behind us.
Details
10
15 4 "Let us rest," said Ivar.
Details
10
15 41 "Black Sleen," said Ivar, "the ship of Thorgard of Scagnar!" There were hundreds of Kurii between us and the ships.
Details
10
15 42 Ivar and I had looked at one another.
Details
10
15 77 Ivar had motioned me to silence.
Details
10
15 86 "Would we not move about more freely," inquired Ivar Forkbeard, "if we, too, sported scarves of yellow?" "It is not impossible," I said.
Details
10
15 90 Ivar had thrust the yellow scarf into his belt; I looped mine over the left shoulder, fastening it loosely at the right hip; we left Thorgard's two men for the Kurii.
Details
10
15 91 In the journey to Ivar's tent a Kur loomed before us, snarling.
Details
10
15 92 "Foolish beast, stupid animal," said Ivar, brandishing his scarf, "can you not see the yellow scarf?" He then brushed past the Kur.
Details
10
15 100 Shortly thereafter Ivar, fists clenched, stood on the site of his camp.
Details
10
15 110 Ivar joined me.
Details
10
15 117 "It is quite possible," said Ivar, looking at me, "that we are being hunted now, by those from the hall".
Details
10
15 120 "What do you propose?" asked Ivar.
Details
10
15 122 "No," said Ivar.
Details
10
15 131 "It is time," said Ivar Forkbeard, turning away from me, "to go to the Torvaldsberg".
Details
10
15 140 "Let us continue our journey," said Ivar.
Details
10
15 142 "No," said Ivar, "let us continue our journey".
Details
10
15 158 Ivar Forkbeard stood up.
Details
10
15 172 "Move only one hand or a foot at a time," said Ivar.
Details
10
15 192 It must have been about the fourteenth Ahn when Ivar reached down and helped me to a ledge.
Details
10
15 204 Ivar smiled.
Details
10
15 225 "As a boy, thus," said Ivar, "I slew my first Kur".
Details
10
15 240 "The hand holds," said Ivar, "were not cut to be deep enough to support the weight of a Kur".
Details
10
15 243 The rock hurled by Ivar struck it from the almost vertical wall of stone.
Details
10
15 246 I admired Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
15 284 "Would you like to hear me sing?" asked Ivar.
Details
10
15 286 Undeterred by my sarcasm, brilliant though it was, Ivar broke into song.
Details
10
15 289 "Song, you see," said Ivar, "soothes even Kurii".
Details
10
15 306 I recalled the two Kurii, precariously clinging to the wall of rock, one of which had fallen attempting to reach us, the other of which Ivar had struck from the wall with a heavy stone.
Details
10
15 308 "There they are," said Ivar, looking over the brink.
Details
10
15 324 Ivar stood beside me, not speaking.
Details
10
15 326 "Yes," said Ivar.
Details
10
15 348 Ivar and I leaped from the rock; the two Kurii, one to each of us, approached.
Details
10
15 388 I saw Ivar, on the flat above, wild-eyed.
Details
10
15 389 "Ivar!" I cried.
Details
10
15 390 "Ivar!" I heard the blood shriek of an unseen Kur.
Details
10
15 391 Ivar turned and leaped to the ledge below, joining me.
Details
10
15 400 Ivar nodded.
Details
10
15 430 "Come with me," said Ivar.
Details
10
15 436 "Here," said Ivar.
Details
10
15 441 "Follow me!" whispered Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
16 26 "These are old runes," said Ivar.
Details
10
16 28 "No," said Ivar.
Details
10
16 42 It was drawn by one who had been familiar with a world unknown to Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
16 57 "Can you not read these runes?" I asked Ivar, again.
Details
10
16 59 Ivar's reply was not a little belligerent.
Details
10
16 62 Ivar's attitude toward reading was not unlike that of many of the north.
Details
10
16 64 Ivar, like many of those in the north, was a passable reader, but took care to conceal this fact.
Details
10
16 126 Ivar Forkbeard, lifting his torch, entered the great chamber.
Details
10
16 174 "Where is Torvald?" cried out Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
16 184 "This is not a tomb," said Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
16 190 Ivar Forkbeard looked at me.
Details
10
16 210 Here they would find not Torvald, but themselves, themselves, Ivar, alone, and an arrow of war".
Details
10
16 211 "I do not understand," said Ivar.
Details
10
16 213 Ivar looked at me.
Details
10
16 215 "The chamber is empty," said Ivar.
Details
10
17 4 At the feet of Ivar Forkbeard, head to the ground, nude, waiting to be commanded, knelt Hilda the Haughty, daughter of Thorgard of Scagnar.
Details
10
17 5 "Go," said Ivar to her.
Details
10
17 69 He had been the third, after Ivar Forkbeard and Tarl Cabot, a warrior of Ko-ro-ba, to lift the arrow of Torvald.
Details
10
17 178 "It is almost time," said Ivar Forkbeard to me.
Details
10
17 181 I did not envy Hilda, Ivar's slave.
Details
10
17 187 "There," said Ivar, pointing.
Details
10
17 209 "I wish," said Ivar Forkbeard, "that I had such a herd".
Details
10
17 215 Too, among them now, prisoner, was Hilda, perhaps Ivar's preferred slave.
Details
10
17 248 "It is beginning," said Ivar Forkbeard to me.
Details
10
17 270 "What is it?" I asked Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
17 287 Ivar Forkbeard suddenly threw back his head and, silently, screamed at the sky.
Details
10
17 292 I could no longer look on Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
18 32 Once I saw Thorgard of Scagnar and Ivar Forkbeard trying to reach him.
Details
10
18 33 But Ivar was blocked by Kurii and warriors, and joined in their combat.
Details
10
18 106 "Where is Thorgard of Scagnar?" asked Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
18 110 Behind Ivar Forkbeard, naked, wearing his collar, I saw Hilda, Thorgard's daughter.
Details
10
18 112 Quickly Ivar and myself hurried to the verr pens.
Details
10
18 135 "It seems," grinned Ivar Forkbeard, "we have a worthy adversary".
Details
10
18 137 "They must be held!" said Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
18 198 I saw Pretty Ankles put out her hand to Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
18 230 "They will wait for night," said Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
18 244 "Good," said Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
18 249 "Your plan has failed," said Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
18 262 "They have had their fill of blood," said Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
18 269 At the same time Ivar Forkbeard and myself looked to one another.
Details
10
18 287 We heard, even from behind the herd, Ivar, and I, and a hundred men, screaming and shouting, the howling, the startled shrieks of Kurii, the enraged roars of Kurii.
Details
10
18 303 Ivar and I strode through the burning camp, axes in our hand.
Details
10
18 310 Ivar blew Pouting Lips a kiss, in the Gorean fashion, brushing the kiss with his fingertips toward her.
Details
10
18 315 Ivar and I laughed.
Details
10
18 319 Hilda knelt to Ivar Forkbeard, her hair to his feet.
Details
10
18 322 "Then, heel," said Ivar, good-naturedly, turning away.
Details
10
18 325 Ivar and I, swiftly, circled the tent.
Details
10
18 329 Ivar motioned me back.
Details
10
18 348 Ivar was pleased.
Details
10
18 357 "I love you!" "The wench is yours," laughed Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
18 374 Ivar and I had little doubt that Wulfstan, upon reflection, would indeed retrieve his pretty Thyri, vital and slim, from the pen, and, indeed, perhaps others as well.
Details
10
18 381 Ivar Forkbeard, followed by Tarl Red Hair and Wulfstan of Torvaldsland, heeled by the bondmaid, Hilda, picked his way toward the burned, looted tents of Thorgard of Scagnar.
Details
10
18 407 "Ivar Forkbeard!" cried the man holding the helmet.
Details
10
18 408 He lifted the helmet to Ivar.
Details
10
18 409 Over the helmet Ivar doubled and held his fist, making the sign of Thor.
Details
10
18 420 "Come," said Ivar to us.
Details
10
18 426 "A high officer," said Ivar.
Details
10
18 452 "Ivar!" cried a voice.
Details
10
18 453 Ivar Forkbeard looked up, to see Ottar up the slope of the valley, waving to him.
Details
10
18 485 By the ring of the Kur collar which she wore Ivar Forkbeard jerked her to her feet, so that she stood on her tiptoes, looking up at him.
Details
10
18 492 "How is this?" asked Ivar.
Details
10
18 493 "Recollect you, my Jarl," asked Olga, "the golden girl, she with ringed ears, from the south, who lost in the assessments of beauty to Gunnhild?" "Well do I do so," responded Ivar, licking his lips.
Details
10
18 497 Lying in the dirt, her legs drawn up, her wrists tied behind her back, was the deliciously bodied little wench, dark-haired, in gold silk, now dirtied and torn, in golden collar, and gold earrings, who had exchanged words with Ivar's wool-kirtled wenches at the Thing.
Details
10
18 506 "Your master," said Ivar, thinking, recollecting the captain behind whom he had seen her heeling at the Thing, "is Rolf of Red Fjord".
Details
10
18 516 "Who is your master?" inquired Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
18 526 By this tether Gorm dragged him before Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
18 528 Then, eyes terrified, she regarded Ivar Forkbeard, of Forkbeard's Landfall.
Details
10
18 536 "I think," said Ivar Forkbeard, "I will give her for a month to Gunnhild, and my other wenches.
Details
10
18 539 Ivar turned to regard Thorgard of Scagnar.
Details
10
18 566 "No man is without his weakness," said Ivar.
Details
10
18 588 Then Ivar Forkbeard, as we followed, step by step, drove Thorgard back.
Details
10
18 607 The men of Ivar Forkbeard were stunned.
Details
10
18 608 Ivar returned to us.
Details
10
18 627 "The bridge of jewels worked well," said Svein Blue Tooth to Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
18 630 "Did any escape?" inquired Ivar.
Details
10
18 668 Ivar Forkbeard and Svein Blue Tooth might congratulate themselves on their victory.
Details
10
18 686 "Are you all right?" asked Ivar.
Details
10
19 5 He stopped before Svein Blue Tooth and Ivar Forkbeard, who, on seats of rock, awaited it.
Details
10
19 6 Ivar, chewing on a vulo wing, motioned Hilda, and Gunnhild, Pudding and Honey Cake, who, naked and collared, his girls, knelt about him, to withdraw.
Details
10
19 20 Then the beast went to Svein Blue Tooth and Ivar Forkbeard, and there, from the ground at their feet, lifted again the two parts of the ax.
Details
10
19 42 "It is five pasangs to the north," said Ivar Forkbeard, "and two pasangs offshore".
Details
10
20 167 It was Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
20 171 On the tiny rock promontory, footing the skerry, some eight or nine feet in width, I met Ivar Forkbeard, and his men.
Details
10
21 72 "Outlawry," said he, "once proclaimed by the hall of Blue Tooth against the person of Ivar Forkbeard, he of Forkbeard's Landfall, is herewith, in this hall, in this place, in the name of Svein Blue Tooth, Jarl of Torvaldsland, lifted!" There was a great cheer.
Details
10
21 76 "Svein Blue Tooth and I," said Ivar Forkbeard, rising, spilling Hilda from his lap, "have had our differences".
Details
10
21 90 "Know this, that from this day forward, Ivar Forkbeard stands among the Jarls of Torvaldsland!" We stood and cheered the fortune, the honor, that the Blue Tooth did unto the Forkbeard.
Details
10
21 91 Ivar, no longer outlaw, now stood among the Jarls of the north.
Details
10
21 95 For a man to be great, had said Ivar Forkbeard, he must need great enemies.
Details
10
21 106 "Gifts!" cried Ivar Forkbeard.
Details
10
21 110 Knee deep in the riches waded Ivar and, laughing, hurled untold wealth to those in the hall.
Details
10
21 115 Ivar Forkbeard himself came to me, and pressed into my hand a sapphire of Schendi.
Details
10
21 116 "Thank you," said I, "Ivar Forkbeard".
Details
10
21 119 "Ivar!" called Svein Blue Tooth, when the loot was distributed, pointing to Hilda, who, in her collar, stripped, cuddled at the Forkbeard's side, "are you not, too, going to give away that pretty little trinket?" "No!" laughed the Forkbeard.
