2	97	I also knew that Ar, inexplicably, to my mind, had literally invested the bulk of its land power in that very expedition, and had done so with the main forces of Cos not in the north but in the vicinity of Torcadino.	10
2	106	I had urged him to march on Torcadino and confront the main body of Cosian forces.	10
2	142	Such a move, of course, might isolate the Cosian main forces, both depriving them of their support from Cos and Tyros and separating them from their fellows at Ar's Station.	10
2	149	The major objection, of course, was that this move exposed Ar herself to the main force of Cosians, which was in the vicinity of Torcadino.	10
2	153	I did not know where the main force of Ar was.	10
2	214	I then made my way back to the main building.	10
2	223	I was now on the left side of the front of the two-part main building, as one would face the building.	10
5	176	From what I had seen of the keeper, I supposed that his main interest in these matters would be to obtain his fees, if not in one way, then in another.	10
5	243	Yes, I thought to myself, that was probably the main reason she had been put here, that is it, not because it was an accident, the luck in a lot of six, or even really, mainly, because she owed more than the others, but because she had not been found pleasing by the keeper.	10
8	21	I looked back, toward the main building.	10
8	754	In the first pass I hovered the bird for a time, some fifty yards over a portion of the court on the top of the palisaded plateau, one rather behind and to the left of the main inn buildings, as one would face them, entering.	10
9	139	I had also considered trying to enter the city through its main gate, in the confusion, when it opened for sorties by the defenders.	10
11	209	It gives such numbers for Ar's troops at Holmesk as would mean that the main might of Ar is in the north, which is unthinkable.	10
11	223	Indeed, the Cosian main forces, which I assure you are not inferior in numbers to those of Ar, are probably now in winter quarters, perhaps a tenth of them in the vicinity of Torcadino.	10
11	250	"The main Cosian forces are here, at Ar's Station.	10
11	261	"I do not know the location of the main body of the might of Ar," I said, "but I suspect it is exactly where this report states it is, and that this report is apprising Artemidorus of the situation.	10
16	4	It had been perhaps obscured by the main gate's west bastion.	10
16	23	He pointed to the battlements over the main gate, higher than those on the wall generally.	10
16	79	I proceeded on toward the raised platform over the main gate, where the impaling spear, flashing in the sun like a polished needle, was mounted.	10
16	102	I hurried up the broad stone steps to the surface of the platform over the main gate.	10
17	106	I had taken up my post above the main gate, on the higher battlements, where the impaling spear was mounted, and the flag of Ar's Station still snapped defiantly.	10
17	568	I myself took one of the smaller portals at the side, to follow an interior corridor to the vicinity of the main gate.	10
20	10	These piers are the main harbor piers, between the inner harbor, that between them and the citadel landing, and the outer harbor, which leads to the river.	10
21	4	She led the main body of the flotilla westward.	10
21	7	Similarly, behind the main body of the flotilla, bringing up the rear, back a pasang or so, flying no colors, their markings concealed, were two galleys.	10
24	320	"The forces of Ar in the north," I said, "should move south with rapidity, before the spring, to engage the main power of Cos.	10
24	330	"But if you were the Cosian commander in the north," I said to Aemilianus, "you would surely, if possible, avoid engaging the main body of Ar".	10

39	32	I myself kept to the main corridor and, in a moment or two, thrusting open a door, entered into the main paga room.	10
1	1145	These were located at the southern edge of the camp, that direction in which lay, presumably, the main forces of Ar.	10
1	1148	Too, it would not be necessary to cross the main camp's air space, which is usually, and for obvious reasons, kept inviolate.	10
1	1149	The cots and defenses there, too, supplied something of a buffer between the main camp and the south.	10
1	1206	A pennon, one bearing the insignia of the company of Artemidorus, a sword grasped in the talon of a tarn, flew from the main pole, projecting through the roof.	10
1	1209	A tent, like this, incidentally, would not accompany the tarnsmen in their flights, borne by draft tarns, but would follow in the supply wagons of the main body.	10
1	1288	Such men may think with the quarry; they may bring up the rear; they may depart from the main search parties; they may conduct random searches, impossible to anticipate, and so on.	10
3	50	Then after three days, by which time they were eager to return to the main body, particularly after having seen two tarn patrols of Ar, I had bidden them farewell, and continued southward.	10
3	96	Perhaps he could treat with Myron, Polemarkos of Temos, commander of the main forces of Cos on the continent, if it were not too late, for a safe withdrawal from Torcadino.	10
3	98	Ar had not marched to meet Cos in the south but had invested its main forces northward.	10
3	436	Perhaps, too, the main body had left the winter camp, and was now marching toward the Vosk.	10
3	453	Whereas the main forces of Ar might be well rested in their winter camp, perhaps unexercised, perhaps grown sleek and fat, men such as these, foragers, rangers, scouts, and such, had probably had more than their share of alarms and labors, of suspicions and dangers, more than their share of contacts...	10
19	342	The main legal purpose of the brand, incidentally, is doubtless this identification of slaves.	10
36	104	"My main objective is to locate my friend, Ephialtes, and I think his wagon, and his goods, would be at the periphery of the encampment".	10

39	206	I looked about the main room, carefully.	10
39	291	I thought she would be safe there, surely more so than if shackled in one of the public holding areas off the main paga room.	10
40	1	News from Torcadino; I am Expected "Have you heard the news?" a fellow was eagerly asking another, outside, in the main paga room.	10
40	9	"The main force of Cos on the continent is at Torcadino".	10
46	268	Others, back from the main aisles, chained in numbered spaces on racks, observed me.	10
47	35	I ducked under a rope of tiny rep-cloth slave tunics, of various solid colors, and was again outside in the main aisles.	10
47	116	I was now making my way toward the main gate.	10
47	118	I stopped, and found myself then in the center of a large ring of men, some one hundred feet or so in diameter, waiting in the first concourse, near the main gate, surely at least seventy or eighty of them.	10
