16	650	How rich the joke! How delicious the insult! But I wondered, really, if the peasant, so simple, so huge, so remote, would even understand this sort of thing.	10
17	2	I turned about, startled, in the cell, that in which the peasant was confined.	10
17	6	The peasant, sitting, cross-legged, by the wall, in his chains, looked at me, dully.	10
17	10	I looked up at the peasant.	10

17	28	I did not doubt but what the peasant could have torn my head from my shoulders.	10

20	9	The pit master, tonight, sat for a time, cross-legged, before the peasant.	10

25	2	"It was far away," said the pit master, sitting, cross-legged, as he sometimes did, before the chained peasant.	10
25	6	I had been unable to attend upon the peasant until now, as I had been late returning to the pens.	10
25	18	It was not unusual, incidentally, for the pit master to be careful of his appearance when he came to the cell of the peasant.	10
25	20	It seemed strange that he would accord such courtesy and regard, such esteem, almost reverence, to one who was a mere peasant.	10
25	22	"What is honor?" asked the pit master of the peasant.	10
25	23	The peasant lifted his head, and looked at him, uncomprehendingly.	10

25	27	"I have heard of it, once, somewhere," said the peasant.	10

31	168	"Is it time for the planting?" asked the peasant.	10
31	192	"Is this he?" asked the leader of the strangers, pointing to the peasant.	10

31	204	Gito continued his consideration of the peasant's countenance.	10
31	209	"Gito?" said the peasant.	10
31	210	The leader of the black-tunicked men turned sharply back, to regard the peasant.	10
31	213	"Gito?" said the peasant.	10
31	216	"Is it you?" asked the peasant.	10
31	221	The peasant lifted his eyes, seemingly vacant, toward the leader of the strangers.	10
31	224	"No," said the peasant.	10
31	226	"I do not know," said the peasant.	10
31	228	"Perhaps," said the peasant.	10
31	230	"Perhaps," said the peasant.	10
31	233	"I do not know," said the peasant.	10
31	234	"Near Ar?" But the peasant was looking on Gito, who shrank back, among several of the men in black.	10
31	235	"Are you not my friend Gito?" asked the peasant.	10
31	238	"Perhaps," said the peasant.	10
31	241	"No," said the peasant, very slowly.	10
31	242	"Yes," said the leader of the strangers, "down with Ar!" "'Down with Ar'?" said the peasant.	10
31	244	The peasant seemed puzzled.	10
31	249	"Is she in danger?" asked the peasant.	10
31	251	"Then those who are of Ar must defend her," said the peasant.	10
31	254	"Are you not of Ar? Must you, too, not defend her?" "Is it time for the planting?" asked the peasant.	10
31	256	"Why?" asked the peasant.	10
31	269	The peasant looked out, as he often did, seeming to see nothing.	10
31	317	The leader of the strangers then returned his attention to the peasant.	10
31	318	"Is it time for the planting?" asked the peasant.	10
31	323	Tell the captain!" "Where is my friend Gito?" asked the peasant.	10
31	325	"Are you well, Gito?" asked the peasant.	10
31	327	"I am pleased to hear this," said the peasant, approvingly, distantly.	10
31	341	"No!" said the pit master, thrusting his own body between the knife and the peasant.	10
31	378	"Is it time for the planting?" inquired the peasant.	10
31	380	"It is time for the planting!" "You have been kind to me," said the peasant.	10
31	384	"I must," said the peasant, simply.	10
31	386	"These men will not let you!" "I am sorry," said the peasant.	10
31	389	"They will not let you!" "Not let me?" said the peasant, dully, uncomprehendingly.	10
31	394	The peasant now stood.	10
31	398	The peasant pulled against the chain on his left wrist.	10
31	403	"They are not my friends?" asked the peasant.	10
31	408	Suddenly a strange, ugly, total, eerie transformation seemed to come over the gigantic body of the peasant.	10
31	429	But I did not think the peasant, that violent giant, that simple, outraged behemoth of a man, in his present state of mind, in his agitation, in the singleness of his purpose, in this ferocious, puissant concentration of all of his force, his power, against iron and rock, was troubled by pain, or ev...	10
31	438	The links there could have been slipped apart, but the peasant took no note of this, rather he continued to force himself against the chain, the link bending more.	10
31	443	The peasant reached down and seized the chain on his right ankle with both his right and left hand.	10
31	484	The peasant, his legs free, save for the shackles and a length of chain on each, now turned about and grasped, with both hands, the chain on his neck.	10
31	494	Almost at the same time there was a snap of chain and the neck chain which was on the peasant dangled before him, from the ring on his collar, and he had turned about again, to face us, his eyes wild, saliva running at the side of his mouth.	10
31	500	The way was now cleared to the peasant.	10
31	521	How absurd, if for so little, not even comprehended, our throats might be cut! No wonder we were so miserable, so frightened! The peasant stood there now like a beast at bay.	10
31	534	The peasant hurled himself again against the chains which held him back.	10
31	535	The bowmen were no more than a yard from the peasant.	10
31	539	Again the peasant, bellowing, threw himself against the chains.	10
31	542	Again the peasant hurled himself against the chains.	10
31	548	Again the peasant threw himself against the chains.	10
31	552	Again the peasant threw himself against the chains.	10
31	557	Again the peasant threw himself against the chains.	10
31	559	The entire block of stone in which the plate and ring was fixed on the peasant's left, our right, had inched out.	10
31	563	The two bowmen trained their weapons on the heart of the peasant.	10
31	573	Again the peasant threw his weight against the chains.	10
31	578	The two bowmen tensed, their fingers on the triggers, their quarrels aligned to the heart of the peasant.	10
31	579	I saw the chains straighten, the rings straighten; the plate on our right, the peasant's left, out from the stone, and the very stone in which it was fastened, too, drawn an inch or more out from the wall, and the other chain, too, I saw, it still fastened to its ring and plate, these tight on the s...	10
31	580	Again the peasant lunged against his chains, and there was a squeal of metal and there was, as though reluctant, crying out, protesting, another tiny yielding, a grating of stone, another tiny movement, another tiny fearful slippage, of a ponderous block of stone.	10
31	586	The peasant seemed like a crazed animal, gigantic, leaning forward, straining, bulging with muscle and hate.	10
31	591	"Aargh!" cried one of the bowmen reeling back, his face a mass of blood within the helmet, the quarrel slashing into the wall to the right of the prisoner, gouging the wall, showering sparks and the other, too, was buffeted to the side by his fellow, his own quarrel spitting, too, to the side, to th...	10
31	593	As it had left the wall it had, with all the violence of the forces imposed upon it, whipped to the peasant's right, striking the nearest bowman on the side of the head.	10
31	602	We then saw, in the light of the swinging lanterns, in the light of the small lamps, the men drawn back, the peasant, standing where he had been, but now bent over, his eyes wild, like something that had tasted blood, a long-forgotten taste, but one which induced a wild intoxication.	10
31	611	The peasant gave another great cry and with his right arm he lunged against the chain that still held him.	10
31	622	The peasant, now that his hands were free from the wall, took, with both hands, the chain which was on his left wrist, that to which the block of stone was still bolted.	10
31	629	The peasant suddenly swung the great stone on its chain about his head in a wicked whirling circle.	10
31	633	Then the peasant retreated to the wall.	10
31	649	Suddenly, crying out, realizing somehow, in some dark part of that simple brain, in some instinctive fashion, that he had not a moment to spare, risking all, heedless of his back, swinging the stone about his head, the peasant, chains flying about his ankles, charged toward the bowmen.	10
31	655	But the stone on its chain, the peasant whirling with it, spun about and about.	10
31	665	Swords darted at the peasant but none reached him, he protected in the whirling shield of chain and stone.	10
31	669	And then the peasant was back again, at bay, against the wall.	10
31	674	The peasant was breathing heavily.	10
31	679	The peasant looked wildly about himself.	10
31	684	Suddenly the officer of Treve kicked the sword at his feet, that which had been earlier pried from his hand, toward the peasant.	10
31	686	The peasant looked down at it.	10
31	691	The peasant bent down and picked up the blade.	10
31	695	"You do not understand such a thing," said the leader of the strangers to the peasant.	10
31	708	The first darting stroke toward the peasant had been parried smartly.	10
31	711	"Do you call this a weapon?" asked the peasant.	10
31	717	"I do not know this thing," said the peasant, looking at the blade, curiously.	10
31	719	The attacker lay to the peasant's right, his knees drawn up.	10
31	721	"But it is quick," said the peasant.	10
32	9	The lieutenant, carefully, crouching beside the fellow, spreading the metal, removed the helmet from the first victim of the peasant, he whose head had been struck by the stone on the chain.	10
33	32	Both of them had taken the peasant's scent, but the leader of the strangers would not know that.	10
33	77	Indeed, the peasant must be somewhere in them.	10
34	12	Five of the black-tunicked men had perished in or near the cell, two being struck by the chain and stone, two in swordplay, and one apparently thrust through, in the darkness, the peasant exiting from the cell.	10
34	70	"Vanarik preceded us," said a man, limping, he whose foot had been twisted in the stirrup of the crossbow, when the peasant had attacked him and the other.	10
35	85	Within the portal, some feet within it, I saw, following his gaze, the immense figure of the peasant, barefoot, in his rags.	10
35	92	The peasant sat down, cross-legged, before Gito.	10
35	95	"The planting must be done," the peasant reminded him.	10
35	97	"I may not see you again," said the peasant.	10
35	100	"I wish you well," said the peasant.	10
35	102	The peasant smiled, and put his great hands affectionately on Gito's small shoulders.	10
35	105	But, a moment after the peasant had vanished, I would surely in any event have been awakened, for Gito leaped to his feet screaming.	10
37	143	Both of these sleen had also been imprinted, I knew, with the scent, and some name, or signal, associated with the peasant, and could be set upon him.	10
37	386	The peasant, I assumed, from the horrifying cry I had heard, must be beneath that terrible living hill of beasts.	10
37	566	The peasant, I recalled, was not likely to waste quarrels on slaves, at least according to the speculations of the pit master, which speculations I fervently hoped were sound.	10
37	766	It was a risk, of course, which the peasant had been willing to take.	10
37	775	The peasant, presumably, would not have been able to count on that development.	10
37	776	It was, presumably, a fortunate one for the Lady Ilene, particularly if the peasant had underestimated the capacity of the urts to leap from the water.	10
37	777	Tensius, from the left, Abnik, from the right, hurried toward the peasant.	10
37	781	Almost at the same moment Tensius had come to the place on the walkway from which the peasant had dived into the pool.	10
37	785	Uncertain, Tensius and Abnik, judging as they could the likely path beneath the water of the peasant, loosed their quarrels.	10
37	798	There seemed no sign of the peasant.	10
37	809	Certainly one would have expected the peasant to surface by now, if he were still alive.	10
37	818	The peasant now could not return through the nest, even if he survived there, to the walkway.	10
37	819	I did think it possible, as doubtless so, too, did the lieutenant, that the peasant might now, at this time, the urts otherwise occupied, successfully reach the nest, which would be above water, on the other side of the wall.	10
37	1064	But it might have been to his advantage had he paid closer attention to the figure in the water for suddenly the thing behind Abnik rose up in the water and, at the same time, we saw the quarrel of a bow emerge and the cable snapped forward and the quarrel took the lieutenant in the side of the thro...	10
37	1117	It did seem to me that the peasant had surely manifested a subtlety, acumen, and terribleness far beyond what one might commonly expect of his caste.	10
37	1179	He freed her hands and feet, cutting the cords of twisted cloth, taken from her garments, which the peasant had used to bind them.	10
38	246	I recalled that there had been some speculation that the holding of the peasant might be in the vicinity of Ar.	10
39	65	"Do you ever expect to see he who was your charge, the prisoner, 41, the peasant, he of interest to the black caste, again?" "No, Master," I said.	10
40	359	"This all has to do with the prisoner, the peasant, does it not, Master?" I asked.	10
46	464	I recalled the peasant.	10
46	467	Too, what difference could it make, really, if he were in the city, a mere peasant? "You could recognize him, if you saw him?" "Yes, Master," I said.	10

35	29	Whereas a Kur familiar with Gor, and the common, fearsome weaponry of the Gorean peasant, might have easily recognized these supposed pendants as weapon points, the smith, as far as we know, unfamiliar with such things, did not do so or, at least, pretended not to do so.	10

36	24	In the hands of a typical peasant, however, this weapon is formidable.	10

12	310	Too, the usual missile weapon of the tarnsman, as the longbow, or peasant bow, was impractical, was the crossbow, but it was difficult to reload from the saddle, and its rate of fire, accordingly, was slow.	10
14	84	The mighty peasant bow, because of its size, obviously, could not be well used from the saddle.	10
