Book 2. (92 results) Outlaw of Gor

Chapter # Sentence # Quote Confidence
22 181 I have sensed how a man in Tharna longs to take the mask from a woman, and I have suspected how much a woman longs for her mask to be taken.

25 35 A mirthless laugh sounded through the mask and the hands in their gloves of gold took the mask and, to my astonishment, removed it.

25 132 The silver mask of Dorna the Proud turned on Lara, who wore no mask, no veil.

26 32 "And add to the golden tarn disks," she had exclaimed, "tarn disks of silver to be formed from the masks of our women, for henceforth in Tharna no woman may wear a mask of either gold or silver, not even though she be Tatrix of Tharna herself!" And as she had spoken, according to the customs of Thar...

8 21 Each of these women wore resplendent Robes of Concealment, rich in color and workmanship, standing out among the drab garments of the men, but instead of the veil common with such robes the features of each were hidden behind a mask of silver.
Details
10
11 17 Only one adornment relieved the walls of their melancholy aspect, the image of a gigantic golden mask, carved in the likeness of a beautiful woman.
Details
10
11 18 Beneath this mask, there was, on a high dais, a monumental throne of gold.
Details
10
11 21 About the room, here and there, stood stern warriors of Tharna, grim in their blue helmets, each with a tiny silver mask on the temple—members of the palace guard.
Details
10
11 24 On the throne itself there sat a woman, proud, lofty in haughty dignity, garbed regally in majestic robes of golden cloth, wearing a mask not of silver but of pure gold, carved like the others in the image of a beautiful woman.
Details
10
11 25 The eyes behind the glittering mask of gold regarded me.
Details
10
11 39 The voice came from the woman behind the golden mask, Lara herself.
Details
10
11 44 The eyes behind the yellow mask regarded me, curiously.
Details
10
11 50 From the curule chair beside the throne rose another woman, wearing an intricately wrought silver mask and magnificent robes of rich silver cloth.
Details
10
11 51 She stood haughtily beside the Tatrix, the expressionless silver mask gleaming down at me, hideous in the torchlight it reflected.
Details
10
11 52 Speaking to the Tatrix, but not turning the mask from me, she said, "Destroy the animal".
Details
10
11 54 "Does the law of Tharna not give it the right to speak, Dorna the Proud, Second in Tharna?" asked the Tatrix, whose voice, too, was imperious and cold, yet pleased me more than the tones of she who wore the silver mask.
Details
10
11 61 I thought that the woman in the silver mask, who had been spoken of as Second in Tharna, seemed to stiffen with apprehension at this revelation.
Details
10
11 62 The silver mask turned upon the man in wrist straps.
Details
10
11 64 "It was the wish of the Tatrix that the slave be yoked and brought to the Chamber of the Golden Mask as soon as possible, and unharmed".
Details
10
11 68 "You are a slave!" hissed Dorna the Proud from behind that expressionless mask.
Details
10
11 76 Beneath the yoke I raised my eyes to her mask.
Details
10
11 93 There was a whimpering and a scuffling from behind me, and, to my astonishment, one of the guardsman of the palace, the tiny silver mask blazed across the left temple of his helmet, flung Ost, the conspirator, yoked and sniveling, to the foot of the throne.
Details
10
11 100 I wondered what thoughts glittered behind that placid mask of gold.
Details
10
11 148 "Very well," said Lara, and turned the glittering mask to the guardsman who had hurled the yoked Ost to her feet, "take him to the Chamber of the Urts".
Details
10
11 162 "I know," said Ost, "that the leader of the conspiracy is a high person in Tharna—one who wears the silver mask, a woman".
Details
10
11 164 "None who wear the silver mask could be disloyal to Tharna!" "Yet it is so," sniveled Ost.
Details
10
11 204 But the mask of the Tatrix glittered upon Ost, and his snicker died in his thin throat.
Details
10
11 220 I wondered what sort of woman was the Tatrix of Tharna, what lay concealed behind that mask of gold.
Details
10
11 222 "As for you," said Lara, her mask glittering down upon me, "you admit that you did not steal the coins from Ost, and in this admission you admit that he gave them to you".
Details
10
11 249 Shaking with fury she stood before me, over me, in her golden robes and mask.
Details
10
12 56 "I once wore the silver mask, Warrior," said the girl.
Details
10
12 97 In my silver mask I followed him, and determined that he had been within the city for more than ten hours".
Details
10
12 102 "As one who wore the silver mask," continued the girl, "it was my duty to report this man to the authorities.
Details
10
12 107 "He pulled away my silver mask and kissed me," she said, "so that I could not even cry for help".
Details
10
12 113 "Yet," she said, "though I had worn the silver mask, and counted myself a woman of Tharna, when he took me in his arms, I did not find the sensation unpleasant".
Details
10
12 117 "Yes," she said, "but I do not care, for I would rather wear the camisk and have felt his kiss, than live forever behind my silver mask".
Details
10
12 127 It was decreed that I must lose my silver mask, don the camisk and be collared, and be sent to the Great Farms to carry water to Field Slaves".
Details
10
13 36 I looked above the wall and saw, vested in her robes of gold, regal on a golden throne, she who alone might wear a golden mask, she who was First in Tharna—Lara, the Tatrix herself.
Details
10
13 136 I looked up into the glittering mask of the Tatrix.
Details
10
13 137 Beside her I saw the silver mask of Dorna the Proud.
Details
10
13 152 Once more I stood beneath the golden mask of the Tatrix.
Details
10
13 156 Her golden mask and robes glittered above me.
Details
10
14 22 I looked up into the glittering, golden mask of the Tatrix.
Details
10
14 23 "As something by which to remember the Tatrix of Tharna," said the voice behind the golden mask, amused.
Details
10
14 24 I grinned up at the golden mask, and taking the scarf slowly wiped the sand and sweat from my face.
Details
10
14 87 I wondered what thoughts passed behind the golden mask of Lara, Tatrix of the city of Tharna.
Details
10
14 207 A wild scream issued from behind that placid, expressionless golden mask.
Details
10
14 209 The eyes behind the mask, which I saw in that split second, were hysterical with fear.
Details
10
15 75 Her hands, still in their gloves of gold, went to the golden mask, as if she feared most that it might not be in place.
Details
10
15 80 Aside from the mask, metallic, cold, glittering as always, I decided the Tatrix might be beautiful.
Details
10
15 86 The expressionless mask gazed upon me.
Details
10
15 113 I noted that her eyes behind the mask were blue.
Details
10
15 128 I could scarcely conjecture the hatred that seethed behind that placid golden mask.
Details
10
15 132 "Remove the mask," I suggested, "in order that I may better judge what you will bring on the Street of Brands".
Details
10
15 133 "No!" she cried, her hands flying to the golden mask.
Details
10
15 134 "I think the mask alone," I said, "might bring the price of a good shield and spear".
Details
10
15 159 Her hands went to the mask.
Details
10
15 172 Although that placid mask showed no emotion, I could read the despair in the body of the Tatrix.
Details
10
16 8 On the pillar itself there were three tarns, and as many warriors, and one woman, who wore the silver mask of Tharna.
Details
10
16 27 The woman in the silver mask approached.
Details
10
16 76 The mask glittered on me, reflecting the light of the descending sun.
Details
10
16 122 "Because," said Dorna the Proud, and I could tell that behind that silver mask, she smiled, "you are not going back to Tharna".
Details
10
16 126 Painfully I was wrenched into the air and, cruelly hanging by my shackled wrists, I saw the white column dropping away beneath me, and the figures upon it, two warriors, a woman in a silver mask, and the golden Tatrix of Tharna.
Details
10
18 41 Only her tattered robes and the mask of gold were found, by Dorna the Proud and Thorn, Captain of Tharna".
Details
10
18 43 "Now," said he, "Dorna wears the mask".
Details
10
22 55 I put my arms around her slender shoulders and to my amazement she who had worn the golden mask of Tharna, she who had been Tatrix of that gray city, put her head upon my chest and wept.
Details
10
22 129 "Of course," she said, "as one who wore the mask of Tharna I put this dream from me.
Details
10
24 41 "Beneath every silver mask," he averred sententiously, "there is a potential Pleasure Slave".
Details
10
24 122 "We fought against the golden mask of Tharna," shouted Kron, pounding his fist on the table.
Details
10
24 125 "I no longer wear the golden mask," she said.
Details
10
24 130 At the head of that splendid, ragged procession five marched; Kron, chief of the rebels; Andreas, a poet; his woman, Linna of Tharna, unveiled; I, a warrior of a city devastated and cursed of the Priest-Kings; and a girl with golden hair, a girl who wore no mask, who had known both the whip and love...
Details
10
24 178 "The Tatrix of Tharna," sneered Thorn, looking on the unconcealed features of Lara, "wears a golden mask".
Details
10
24 179 "The Tatrix of Tharna," said Lara, "no longer chooses to wear a mask of gold".
Details
10
24 216 "Are there none of you here who have served in the Chamber of the Golden Mask? None of you who recognize my voice?" "It is she!" cried one of the men.
Details
10
24 251 My memory and sense of direction began to carry me unerringly from hall to hall, guiding me swiftly toward the Chamber of the Golden Mask.
Details
10
24 256 At last I came to the Chamber of the Golden Mask.
Details
10
24 260 Behind the golden throne of the Tatrix loomed the dull gold mask, fashioned in the image of a cold and beautiful woman, the reflection of the torches set in the walls flickering hideously on its polished surface.
Details
10
24 261 On the throne there sat a woman clad in the golden robes and mask of the Tatrix of Tharna.
Details
10
25 12 Our reflections fought one another in the shimmering surface of the great golden mask behind the throne.
Details
10
25 14 Then there was but one reflection and but one gigantic, grotesque shadow cast upon the walls of the Chamber of the Golden Mask.
Details
10
25 30 The girl lifted her head and the golden mask faced me.
Details
10
25 32 The voice, for the first time, spoke through the mask.
Details
10
25 67 Inside the basket was a woman whose carriage and figure I knew to be that of Dorna the Proud, though she now wore only a simple silver mask of Tharna.
Details
10
25 93 The impassive silver mask was fastened on me and I sensed that the dark eyes behind it blazed with indescribable hatred.
Details
10
25 119 It had been his doom to care for a silver mask.
Details
10
25 124 Resourceful as she was, even carrying riches as she must be, she was still only a woman and, on Gor, even a silver mask needs the sword of a man to protect her.
Details
10
25 142 She looked once more at the rebels and soldiers and guardsmen and Lara with a loathing I could sense behind the impassive mask, and then that metal image turned once more upon me.
Details
10
25 147 Once the sun flashed upon that silver mask.
Details
10
26 28 I myself had stood at the foot of the steps to the golden throne when Lara had commanded that the giant mask of gold which hung behind it be pried by spears from the wall and cast to the floor at our feet.
Details
10
26 30 The men of Tharna watched almost in disbelief as the great mask loosened, bolt by bolt, from the wall, leaned forward and at last, dragged down by its own weight, broke loose and plunged clattering down the steps of the throne, breaking into a hundred pieces.
Details
10
26 64 Each silver mask would have six months in which she would be free to live within the city and be fed at the common tables, much as before the revolt.
Details
10
26 71 Thus each silver mask will in time belong to a beast, though at first she is given some opportunity to determine whose yellow cords she will feel, on whose rug the ceremony of submission will take place.

Details
10
22 119 "No, Fool, not Gladius of Cos!" "Assassins lurk!" "Flee, Rider, flee!" "Flee, Gladius of Cos!" "Be silent," said the man with me, he who had given me the mask, the leader of the crossbowmen, quieting with his command the cries and admonitions of those about us.
