6	322	This reduces its exposure to the north wind, which is particularly important in the Torvaldsland winter.	10
6	399	Men and the Kurii, where they met, which was usually only in the north, regarded one another as mortal enemies.	10
6	499	He might know the haunts of Kurii; he might know dialects of the north, some of which are quite divergent from standard Gorean, as it is spoken, say, in Ar or Ko-ro-ba, or even in distant Turia; the habits and customs of the northern halls and villages might be familiar to him; I had no wish to be t...	10
6	500	Most importantly, the Forkbeard was a mighty fighter, a brave man, a cunning mind; in my work in the north I was grateful that I might have so formidable an ally.	10
6	524	Gunnhild thrust out her left ankle; the Forkbeard fettered her; a moment later Pudding, too, had thrust forth her ankle, and her ankle, too, was locked in a fetter of the north.	10
7	78	"Bondmaids of the north must know how to do useful things," he told her.	10
7	243	"Perhaps," suggested Gorm, "it is diseased or injured, and can no longer hunt the swift deer of the north?" In these cases, too, I supposed one of the Kurii might be driven, by teeth and claws, from its own caves.	10
8	10	"I had not realized, Lady," said I, "that perception such as yours existed in the north".	10
8	14	"You of the south think we of the north are barbarians?" she snapped.	10
8	16	"I might have you fried in the grease of tarsk," she said, "boiled in the oil of tharlarion!" "Will you not take pity, great Lady," I whined, "on those who did not suspect the civilization, the refinements, of the north?" "Perhaps," said she.	10
8	48	Another custom, long practiced in the far south, below the Gorean equator, in Turia, for example, is the piercing of the ears of the female slave; this custom, though of long standing in the far south, did not begin to spread with rapidity in the north until, again, it was introduced in Ar.	10
8	51	Ear piercing, from this time, had begun to spread rapidly through the north, masters, and slavers, often inflicting it on their girls.	10
8	299	It had doubtless been its plan to lure me to the north.	10
9	106	She had a fair throat, good shoulders; she was marvelously breasted; her waist was such that one could get his hands on it well; she might have been a bit broad in the beam but I had no objection to this; in the north it is called the love cradle; it was well adapted to cushion the shocks of an oars...	10
10	30	Ax Glacier was far to the north, a glacier spilling between two mountains of stone, taking in its path to the sea, spreading, the form of an ax.	10
10	32	They cannot farm that far to the north.	10
10	33	Thorgeir, it so happened, of course, was the only man of the Ax Glacier country, which is usually taken as the northern border of Torvaldsland, before the ice belts of Gor's arctic north, who was at the Thing-Fair.	10
10	46	Lastly, his coloring, though his hair was dark, was surely not that of the far north, but, though swarthy, more akin to that of Torvaldsland, particularly western Torvaldsland.	10
10	96	"A silk girl!' The expression 'silk girl' is used, often, among bondmaids of the north, to refer to their counterparts in the south.	10
10	163	Thorstein Camp, well to the south, but yet north of Einar's Skerry, was a camp of fighting men, which controlled the countryside about it, for some fifty pasangs, taking tribute from the farms.	10
10	167	She was dressed in the full regalia of a free woman of the north.	10
10	319	I saw, too, four slavers, perfumed, in their robes of blue and yellow silk, come north to buy women.	10

10	325	These cities are not on good terms but they, civilized men, both in the far north, conversed affably.	10
10	428	They all wore the collars of the north, with the projecting iron ring.	10

13	136	The Jarl's Woman, in the Kaissa of the north, is a more powerful piece than the Ubara in the Kaissa of the south.	10
13	162	The palisade enclosed some two acres; within it were many shops and storage houses, even an ice house; in the center, of course, reared the great hall itself, that rude, high-roofed palace of the north, the house of Svein Blue Tooth.	10
13	336	It is she!" The women of the north, commonly, do not veil themselves.	10
13	419	Never in the north had there been such a coup of honor! Though it might mean the death of us all, those who followed the Forkbeard, and that of perhaps hundreds of the men of Svein Blue Tooth, we cheered.	10
14	87	They could cut a man down before he could approach them, even with the long blade of the North.	10
15	68	Their boldest move had begun most recently, the gathering of the Gorean Kurii, the initiation of the march to the south, the incursion into lands of human habitation, the beginning of the invasion from the north.	10
16	25	The lettering was in the high, angular script of the north; the pictographs seemed primitive.	10

16	56	The most famous rune stone in the north is that on Einar's Skerry, which marks the northland's southern border.	10
16	62	Ivar's attitude toward reading was not unlike that of many of the north.	10
16	64	Ivar, like many of those in the north, was a passable reader, but took care to conceal this fact.	10
16	68	Many of the north, then, were rather proud of their illiteracy, or semi-illiteracy.	10
16	72	Besides simple runes, the boy in the north is also taught tallying, counting, addition and subtraction, for such may be of use in trading or on the farm.	10
16	120	Again he will lead the men of the north".	10
16	130	He might have been a great leader, a mighty warrior, the first of the jarls of the north, but that had been, if it had ever been, more than a thousand years ago.	10
16	133	In his hope to find one strong enough to stand against Kurii, one who could rally the men of the north, he was bound to be disillusioned.	10
17	98	To the north and west of the camp's center I could see the tents of Thorgard of Scagnar and his men.	10
17	188	They caught her north of the bosk herd.	10
17	285	It seemed first a ghastly infection, a plague; then it seemed like a fire, invisible and consuming; then it seemed like the touching of these men by the hands of gods, but no gods I knew, none to whom a woman or child might dare pray, but the gods of men, and of the men of Torvaldsland, the dread, h...	10
18	173	Not ten yards before the clash took place, Svein Blue Tooth and his lieutenants before the running line, as the girls, under the whips of Kurii, fled, terrified, seeing the axes, the leveled weapons, toward them, made a sign no bondmaid of the north mistakes, the belly sign.	10

18	641	The Forkbeard and I, it had been, who had found the arrow of war in the Torvaldsberg, who had touched it to other arrows, which, in hundreds of villages and camps, over thousands of square pasangs of rugged, inlet-cleft terrain, had been carried to the free men of the north, that they might fetch th...	10
18	663	But already, I suspected, Kurii, fresh, brilliant, calculating, masters in the steel worlds, in their command rooms, their map rooms and strategy rooms, were, even before the ashes in this remote valley in the north had cooled, engaged in the issuance of orders.	10
18	681	I had come north to avenge the slaying of the wench Telima.	10
19	42	"It is five pasangs to the north," said Ivar Forkbeard, "and two pasangs offshore".	10
20	6	"I have come to the north, thinking you slain.	10
20	7	I had come north, in fury, tricked, to avenge you".	10
20	59	The Kur departed north.	10
20	148	It had been that which, presented to me in Port Kar, bloodied, had lured me to the north, seeking to avenge her.	10
20	162	I turned her about and, taking a pair of the rude iron slave bracelets of the north, black and common, with which bondmaids are commonly secured, locked her wrists behind her back.	10
20	183	Her wrists were still confined behind her back in the rude, black bracelets of the north, with their one heavy link.	10
21	3	She was naked on the rough bench of the north.	10
21	12	About her throat she wore the north's collar of black iron, riveted.	10
21	91	Ivar, no longer outlaw, now stood among the Jarls of the north.	10
22	1	I Take Ship From the North Slave girls, naked, carrying burdens, loaded the ship of Ivar Forkbeard, the Hilda, moored at the wharf of the Thing-Fields.	10
22	9	I think that here, somehow, in the north, you have found yourself".	10
22	14	Her wrists were fastened behind her by the rude bracelets of the north.	10
22	35	"Never before," had said Svein Blue Tooth, "has one not of the north been named Jarl amongst us".	10
22	38	I had lifted my hands to them, standing on the shields, a Jarl of Torvaldsland, one who might now, in his own name if need be, send forth the arrow of war, summoning adherents; one who might, as it pleased him, command ships and men; one who might now say to the rough, bold seamen of the north, as i...	10
