1	10	I thought him dead until I received his strange message, more than twenty years after he had vanished.	10
1	89	"The message has been delivered," I said to myself, feeling a bit silly as I said it.	10
1	139	I think I will carry its simple, abrupt message burned into the cells of my brain until, as it is elsewhere said, I have returned to the Cities of Dust.	10
3	44	On the other hand, a new succession of noises in A would be received by the machine and emitted as a message in Gorean.	10
16	91	Tell them they must strike now, and that you come with this message from Tarl Cabot, Warrior of Ko-ro-ba".	10
16	105	"A message from Pa-Kur," I said, "for the ears of Talena, his Ubara-to-be".	10
16	106	"I will carry the message," said one of the guards, a large man, his eyes suspicious.	10
16	109	"The message is for the Ubara-to-be, and for her alone," I said angrily.	10
16	111	"Give me your name," I demanded, "so that I may report to Pa-Kur who it is that denies his message to his future Ubara".	10
16	126	"My message is for the ears of she who is pledged to Pa-Kur, and for her ears alone".	10

15	64	With one last look at the Tatrix, the bird turned and stalked to the brink of that awesome ledge and, with a single snap of its great wings, leaped into space, its soaring shadow a message of terror to any game below.	10
19	158	The words of the man of Ar, he who had worn the robes of the Initiates, he who had brought me the message of the Priest-Kings on the road to Ko-ro-ba that violent night months before, rang in my ears, "Throw yourself upon your sword, Tarl of Ko-ro-ba!" But I knew then that I would not throw myself u...	10

10	23	This coiled message rope then retains the odors indefinitely and when another Priest-King wishes to read the message he unrolls it slowly, scanning it serially with the jointed sensory appendages.	10
27	365	The message was given to my ears as would have been any message.	10
2	46	Upon occasion some message would be found scratched in the cliffs along the path.	10
10	18	Moreover, if not too much time is allowed to elapse, a Priest-King may leave a message in his chamber or in a corridor for another Priest-King, and the other may arrive later and interpret it.	10
10	19	A disadvantage of this mode of communication, of course, is that the message may be understood by strangers or others for whom it is not intended.	10
10	21	For longer periods of time there are various devices for recording a message, without relying on complex mechanical devices.	10
10	22	The simplest and one of the most fascinating is a chemically treated rope of clothlike material which the Priest-King, beginning at an end bearing a certain scent, saturates with the odors of his message.	10
11	35	The translator, incidentally, supposing it to be turned on, would provide only the translation of what was said, and the words, unless the volume control was manipulated during the message, would always occur at the same sound level.	10
16	106	"I then, by means of an Implanted Agent, unconscious of the message being read through him, instructed your father to write the letter which you found in the mountains on your native world".	10
19	104	It was a very simple message and was of course not carried by Sarm's translator.	10
27	198	It was not their message, but that of she who lay brown and wrinkled behind me.	10
27	201	Only from Sarm's translator came a message.	10
27	203	"No," said the Mother, her message being caught and transmitted by Sarm's own translator.	10
27	205	"No," said the Mother, the message coming again from Sarm's translator.	10
27	254	"No," said the Mother, and the message again came from Sarm's own translator, and was echoed a thousand times by those of the other Priest-Kings in the great chamber.	10
27	273	Misk's message to Sarm was carried on Sarm's own translator.	10
27	285	I heard the message on the translators of Priest-Kings who, like Misk, approached the platform.	10
27	289	This message was echoed by every translator in the room and a thousand times again and again as the Priest-Kings repeated it in disbelief to one another.	10
27	311	I wondered how long the scent-message, whatever it was to be, would linger in the air before fading into an unrecognizable blur of scent to be drawn through the ventilator system and dispelled somewhere far above among the black crags of the treeless, frozen Sardar.	10
27	313	At the low volume I received the message the other translators in the room would not be likely to pick it up and transduce the sounds into odor-signals.	10
27	363	And from a thousand translators rang the message she cried out over those golden heads to the blank stone ceiling and walls of her chamber and I shall never forget it as it was in all the sorrow and the joy of her trembling dying magnificence; I and all could read it in the attitude of her body, the...	10
33	125	I had intended to make use of that moment myself, pretending to have come with a message from Priest-Kings, to encourage man to live as I wished him to live, to respect himself and others, to be kind and to be worthy of the heritage of a rational animal, and yet of what worth would these things be i...	10
33	128	I thought how dangerous might be the Initiates if, intertwined with their superstitious lore and their numerous impressive ceremonies, there had been a truly moral message, something that might have spoken to the nobility of men.	10

7	206	Who, or what, could dare such a thing? Besides, how did I know that the message was not from Priest-Kings? I knew, as Kamchak and Kutaituchik did not, of the recent Nest War beneath the Sardar, and of the disruption in the technological complexes of the Nest—who knew to what primitive devices...	10
16	295	How else would he dare to use the name of Priest-Kings on the message in the message collar?" I knew, of course, that the man was not a Priest-King.	10
5	120	Kamchak read the message of the drum and horn.	10
6	187	"It is a message collar," said Kamchak.	10
6	188	"Inside the leather, sewn within, will be a message".	10
7	86	It seemed to me, from what I had learned, that there was no particular reason why Elizabeth Cardwell, and not one of Earth's countless others, had been selected to wear the message collar.	10
7	88	It was perhaps only that she was convenient, and, of course, that she was lovely, thus a fitting bearer of the collar, herself a gift with the message to please the Tuchuks, and perhaps better dispose them toward its contents.	10
7	147	But how was it that Elizabeth Cardwell, of Earth, wore a Turian message collar? Kamchak drew the quiva from his belt and approached the girl.	10
7	156	I would have expected the message to have been written either on stout, glossy-surfaced linen paper, of the sort milled in Ar, or perhaps on vellum, or a grosser parchment, prepared in many cities and used commonly in scrolls, the process involving among other things the washing and liming of skins,...	10
7	170	The message was simple, consisting of only three lines.	10
7	175	"And who has signed this message?" asked Kutaituchik.	10
7	197	"It is," said Kamchak, "obviously not a message of Priest-Kings".	10
7	201	"Do you think Priest-Kings would use a Turian message collar?" He pointed his broad finger at Elizabeth Cardwell.	10
7	209	And finally, I reminded myself again, was I not now engaged in their work? Was I not now attempting to be of service to them? Was I not now among the Wagon Peoples, in peril perhaps, on their behalf? But, I asked myself, if this message was not from Priest-Kings, from whom could it be? Who would dar...	10
7	217	"What," I asked Kamchak, "would you do if you thought the message were truly from Priest-Kings?" "Nothing," said Kamchak, gravely.	10
7	253	Perhaps in that moment Elizabeth Cardwell recalled the strange man, so fearsome, gray of face with eyes like glass, who had so examined her on Earth, before whom she had stood as though on a block, unknowingly being examined for her fitness to bear the message collar of Turia.	10
8	2	I had hoped to go to Turia, there to seek the answer to the mystery of the message collar, but it was not to be, at least until the spring.	10
8	13	The mystery of the message collar, intriguing as it might be, was of secondary importance.	10
8	631	It was now, perhaps, I hoped, that I might learn the answer to the riddles which had not ceased to disturb me, that I might learn the answer to the mystery of the message collar, perhaps the answer to the numerous mysteries which had attended it, and perhaps, at last, find some clue, as I had not ye...	10
12	15	In Turia I had learned nothing, unfortunately, of the answers to the mystery of the message collar—or to the appearance of Miss Elizabeth Cardwell on the southern plains of Gor.	10
16	206	I immediately recalled Elizabeth's description of the man who had examined her for fitness to bear the message collar—on Earth! "I have never seen that man," said Ha-Keel.	10
16	220	"Also," I cried, suddenly aware, "the rence paper in the message collar, paper from Port Kar!" "Of course," he said.	10
16	221	"The message was yours," I said.	10
16	237	The plan was, it seems, that the message would be read, and that the Tuchuks would then use the girl to find you and when they had they would kill you.	10
16	314	The matter of the message collar had been a clever way of attempting to gain that end but, because of the shrewdness of Tuchuks, who seldom take anything at its face value, it had failed; they had then attempted to bring me down among the wagons with a Paravaci quiva, but that, too, had failed; I gr...	10

10	319	The message was simple.	10
10	323	"Who gave you this message?" I asked the boy.	10
10	328	I did not know if the message truly came from Samos, or not.	10
10	334	I would ignore the message.	10
14	112	The same message was run up the halyard to the height of the stem castle.	10
17	53	They pulled away, acknowledging with flags my message.	10
18	831	"Why!" "Samos," said I, "was it from you that the message came, months ago, which I received in the Council of Captains, seeking to speak with me?" "Yes," said Samos.	10
18	838	"But when the message was delivered," I said, "you were not even in the city".	10
18	840	"I hoped by that ruse to make it easier to deny any connection between myself and the message, should denial seem in order".	10

9	136	"Are you not curious," she asked, "to know the import of the message?" I could feel the point of the knife.	10

13	348	I had thought him to be the "Abdul" of the message, that which had been placed in the scalp of the message girl, Veema, who had been sent mysteriously to the house of Samos in Port Kar.	10
1	380	"A message girl," said one of them.	10
1	382	Then to one of those at the table, one who wore the garments of the physicians, he said, "Obtain the message".	10
1	388	It is common for the girl to be given to the recipient of the message.	10
1	395	She would not know the message she bore.	10
1	402	"Then," said I to Samos, "you do not know from whom this message comes".	10
1	471	"On a rock there was scratched this message: Beware the steel tower".	10
1	513	"The message girl is ready," said the man who wore the green of the physicians.	10
1	520	Originally her head had been shaved, and the message tattooed into the scalp.	10
1	522	None but the girl would know she carried such a message, and she would not know what it might be.	10
1	524	I read the message.	10
1	526	We did not know from whence the message came, or who had sent it.	10
1	528	"With needles remove the message from her scalp".	10
1	623	'" "And the message girl," I said.	10
1	627	"And who would send such a message, and why?" "I do not know," said Samos.	10
1	808	"And what," I asked, "of the message on the stone, 'Beware the steel tower'?" "It is a mystery," said Samos, "and the answer lies here".	10
2	587	I had failed to learn who it was who had purchased the girl Veema, who perhaps had sent her as a message girl to Samos of Port Kar.	10
2	590	I recalled the message which she had borne.	10
7	36	"Surrender Gor," had come the message, presumed from the steel worlds.	10
7	39	There had been, too, the message girl, Veema, whose very body had borne the warning, "Beware Abdul".	10
7	48	"It lay here!" The stone, however, remained, and the message scratched upon it.	10
7	55	No vowel sound had to be interpolated, or determined from context, in this message.	10
7	57	The message as a whole was explicit, unmistakable.	10
7	423	On our records they matched those of Miss Elizabeth Cardwell, of New York City, Earth, who had been brought to Gor to wear the message collar to the Tuchuks".	10
7	428	"The message collar," said Ibn Saran, "failed to bring about your death, the termination of your quest for the last egg of Priest-Kings".	10
7	479	And what she did not accomplish with the message collar in the land of the Wagon Peoples, she has well accomplished here on the rack in the chamber of justice".	10
11	419	A message had been inscribed on a rock: Beware the steel tower.	10
11	420	And a message girl had been brought to Samos, of Port Kar.	10
11	421	Her message, revealed in the shaving of her head, had been "Beware Abdul".	10
11	425	Still, however, I did not know who had sent the message.	10
13	349	I still did not know who had sent the message.	10
13	350	As now seemed clear to me, the message must have referred to Abdul, the Salt Ubar.	10
13	351	He who had sent the message had doubtless been of the Tahari.	10
13	352	It had doubtless not occurred to him that the message might have been misconstrued.	10
13	360	I wondered who had sent the message, "Beware Abdul".	10
21	289	"Surrender Gor," had been the message to the Sardar, from the Kurii ships.	10
26	1172	"In the house of Samos, at Port Kar," I said, "there was a girl, Veema, a message girl.	10
26	1173	The message she bore was 'Beware Abdul.	10
26	1174	' Mistakenly I took the Abdul of this message to be Abdul, the carrier of water, in Tor".	10
26	1179	"Perhaps he who sent the message assumed that the information of the agents of Priest-Kings was sufficient to identify Ibn Saran with Abdul, the Salt Ubar, or, at least, to link him with that villain".	10
26	1183	"But who sent the message girl, Veema, to the house of Samos?" I asked.	10
26	1186	He had had the message placed months before.	10

15	343	"Further," she said, "even should the message fall into the wrong hands, it is concealed, and would not be understood as a message, and even if it were understood as a message, its secret would be kept for it is well enciphered".	10
25	45	"Otherwise," said Bosk, "the intended recipient of the message would also not know which message was the one intended for communication".	10
15	316	"We needed a girl, one to bear a message.	10
15	319	There she would deliver the message".	10
15	323	"They sought the message in clear form," she said.	10
15	324	"They did not, at that time, understand how you carried the message.	10
15	326	It is fortunate for us, as well as you, that you were not slain, they thinking you had disposed of the message, cheating us of its contents".	10
15	330	"I carry no message," I said.	10
15	335	"Could not a man have carried the message?" I asked.	10
15	340	They themselves do not even know they carry the message.	10
15	363	"What is the message I carry?" I asked.	10
15	365	"Any girl," I said, "might have carried this message".	10
15	382	It would be foolish to leave it fixed in your body, would it not, to arouse the puzzlement of the curious, perhaps even to identify you as our message girl to the agents of the enemy?" "Yes, Mistress," I said.	10
15	388	"Will I understand the message?" I asked.	10
15	392	"And," I asked, "when the message is delivered?" "Then," she said, "you will be returned to me".	10
19	29	They thought that I bore a message for them, but I did not.	10
19	137	"The message has now been delivered".	10
19	146	"Please do not kill me!" "Even if she could rebead the necklace," said Belisarius, "its message could not be understood, and, even if it could be understood, it would be meaningless to others".	10
20	14	After I had delivered the message to Belisarius, and had served to amuse his men, I had been returned to the Chatka and Curla, still hooded, and bound in the slave sack, as I had been brought from it, by the same men, through the secret door in the rear of the alcove.	10
20	42	After I had delivered the message I was no longer under the same security which I had earlier experienced at the Chatka and Curla.	10
24	267	"I brought him a message".	10
24	268	"What message?" he asked.	10
24	271	"We shall have the message," he said.	10
24	332	"We shall have the message," he had said.	10
24	333	But I did not know what the message was.	10
24	334	"We shall have the message," he had said.	10
24	335	I did not know what the message was.	10
24	338	I had been an unwitting message girl for one side.	10
25	1	The Message I lifted the strung beads to the square-jawed man with short, closely cropped white hair.	10
25	41	"You suspect then," asked Bosk, "that several arrangement orders of beads might be in her memory?" "Yes," said Iskander, "each of which, I suspect, would be correlated with a different message".	10
25	42	"We would, thus," said Bosk, "not know which of the messages was the true message".	10
25	44	"But we do know the trigger sequence will release the crucial message".	10
25	74	"We may suppose," said Bosk, "as a working hypothesis, that the message is in Gorean.	10
25	104	"True," said Bosk, "and, in a short message, which this appears to be, we might produce several intelligible possibilities.	10
25	124	From the practical point of view, if a cipher is used briefly and for a given short message, it may be impossible to break.	10
25	127	It utilizes key words or numbers, but each message is further altered in a prearranged, random manner.	10
25	128	Each message is thus unique, but decipherable in its position in the sequence of messages.	10
25	129	Both sender and receiver know, for example, that message six will be randomized in manner six, and so on".	10
25	135	"I think that it is," said Bosk, "from the ease with which Belisarius read the message.	10
25	139	It is not, for example, a strange message written upon a scrap of paper, calling attention to itself as a secret communication, challenging the curious to its unraveling, but apparently only an innocent necklace, beaded with wood, common, vulgar and cheap, fit only for the throat of a lowly female s...	10
25	143	She did not, for a long time, even understand that she bore the message.	10
25	165	The message itself is thus short".	10

25	207	"What is the message?" asked Samos.	10
25	213	"When did you give this message, Slave Girl?" demanded Samos of me.	10
25	234	It must be a dire intelligence indeed conveyed by the simple message, to disturb to such an extent so mighty a man.	10

2	113	When the silk is unwrapped, of course, the message disappears into a welter of scattered lines, the bits and parts of letters; the coherent message is replaced with a ribbon marked only by meaningless, unintelligible scraps of letters; to read the message, of course, one need only rewrap the ribbon ...	10
2	118	The security of the message, as is often the case, is a function not of the opacity of the message, in itself, but rather in its concealment, in its not being recognized as a message.	10
2	111	Originally, in its preparation, the message ribbon is wrapped diagonally, neatly, edges touching, about a cylinder, such as the staff of a marshal's office, the shaft of a spear, a previously prepared object, or so on, and then the message is written in lines parallel with the cylinder.	10
1	47	We had discovered this from an enciphered message, fallen into our hands, hidden in the beads of a necklace.	10
2	1	The Message of the Scytale; I Converse with Samos "The arrogance of Kurii may yet prove their undoing," said Samos.	10
2	24	Such an act, to deliver such a message, would be little better than a taunt, a gambit, intended to misdirect our attention".	10
2	108	"Yes," said Samos, "and the message is in clear Gorean".	10
2	109	He had told me what the message was, and we had discussed it earlier.	10
2	112	The message, easily printed, easily read, thus lies across several of the divisions in the wrapped silk.	10
2	114	The message then appears in its clear, legible character.	10
2	115	Whereas there is some security in the necessity for rewrapping the message about a cylinder of the original dimension, the primary security does not lie there.	10
2	116	After all, once one recognizes a ribbon, or belt, or strip of cloth, as a scytale, it is then only a matter of time until one finds a suitable object to facilitate the acquisition of the message.	10
2	117	Indeed, one may use a roll of paper or parchment until, rolling it more tightly or more loosely, as needed, one discovers the message.	10
2	119	A casual individual would never expect that the seemingly incoherent design on a girl's ribbon would conceal a message which might be significant, or fateful.	10
2	120	From the girl's reactions I gathered that she understood now that the ribbon bore some message, but that she had not clearly understood this before.	10
2	121	"It is a message?" she asked.	10
2	131	I read the message.	10
2	308	"Greetings to Tarl Cabot," I said, recalling the message.	10
2	317	"Here is an explicit message".	10
2	371	"Strange, is it not," I asked, "that when the ship is nearly ready that this message should come?" "Yes," said Samos.	10
2	383	"Do you doubt the message?" asked Samos.	10
2	396	"Why," I asked, "should the message be addressed to me?" "The Kurii know you," said he.	10
2	737	I thought of the message: Greetings to Tarl Cabot, I await you at the world's end.	10
4	561	"Greetings to Tarl Cabot," had read the message on the scytale, "I await you at the world's end.	10

16	59	When one adds to this certain additional drum signals corresponding, in effect, to keys to the message or to certain consonantal ciphers, one has, in effect, a direct, effective, ingenious device at one's disposal, given the drum relays, for long-distance communication.	10

9	297	Are they truly so esoteric, I wondered, a message lurking in some ancient palimpsest, propositions expressed in secret, forgotten languages, a doctrine concealed within strata of meticulous encipherments, so deep as to be fathomed only after years of study, so subtle as to be detected only by a gift...	10
12	441	"If, in a given message, for example, the notation 'Ubar to Ubara's Tarnsman Two' occurs, that could mean that, on the board in question, say, Board 7, the square Ubara's Tarnsman Two was significant.	10
12	445	"The listing of the moves in an orderly sequence, of course, gives the order of the letters in the message," I said.	10
12	455	The nulls may frequently occur in the enciphered message but they are, of course, immediately disregarded by the receiver".	10
12	457	The presence of nulls and multiples in a message, of course, makes it much more difficult to decipher, if one lacks the key.	10
12	462	Often, in such a message, one might theoretically work out numerous, and often conflicting, analyses.	10
12	463	The multiplicity of boards thus permits the shifting of the cipher several times within the context of one message.	10

21	77	"That the message might emanate from a particular person in the house of Appanius, and presumably not Appanius himself, who would not be likely to have any direct business with the Ubara," I said, "was what gained your admittance.	10
21	78	The Ubara would suspect, and perhaps even hope, from whom the message might come.	10
21	79	Too, of course, that the message was considered "private" would tend not only to confirm her suspicions, but to excite and intrigue her".	10
21	81	She had, of course, reported to the guards at the Central Cylinder back-braceleted, with the message tube about her neck.	10

40	166	Again and again, in a metallic, droning, reverberating Kur, the message of Agamemnon resounded, again and again in the cylinder.	10

56	144	The message of Lucullus had now echoed several times throughout the valley, and no answer had arisen from the trenches.	10

10	883	She entrusted to me a message, which was written in black ink on cheap rence paper, in simple block letters, at that time almost childishly formed letters, as she, for all her dexterity and intelligence, was still far from adept in Gorean.	10
10	887	Surely much thought went into these things, well beyond the delicacy of the message itself.	10
10	888	After all, the ink, the paper, or parchment, the script, the perfume, the seal, and so on, are, I suppose, in their way, a part of the message itself.	10
