8 107 Treve was alleged to lie above Ar, some seven hundred pasangs distant, and toward the Sardar.

10
8 147 Thus when the tarnsmen of Treve came to the grain fields of Ko-ro-ba, which lie for the most part some pasangs from the city, toward the Vosk and Tamber Gulf, they would find her tarnsmen arrayed against them.

11 31 In this case there is again the unconscious movement of the cleaning hooks but there is in addition an incipient, but restrained, extension of the forelegs in the direction of the object toward which the Priest-King is well disposed; this suggests to me that the Priest-King is willing to put its cle...

10
27 131 Well could I now read the signs of consternation in the rows of Priest-Kings, the startled antennae, the shifting of the supporting appendages, the sudden intense inclination of the head and body, the straining of the antennae toward the Platform of the Mother.

10
27 255 Suddenly with a vicious, almost incalculable speed Sarm's right bladed projection flashed toward my head.

27 348 The old antennae stretched forward, inching themselves toward me and I took them gently in my hands and held them.
Details
10
28 10 On the second day of the second week of battle, after the forces of Sarm had withdrawn, I, armed with sword and silver tube, mounted a transportation disk and swept through the no man's land of unoccupied tunnels toward the Vivarium.
Details
10
28 136 Al-Ka guided the transportation disk out of the Vivarium and we began the journey toward Misk's compartment, the Gur Carriers following overhead.
Details
10
28 228 When one lifts the craft it seems the earth moves from beneath one; when one moves it forward it seems as though the horizon rushed toward one; if one should place it in reverse, it seems the horizon glides away.
Details
10
29 14 I ran toward the workshop where Misk and I had left the ship we had fashioned from the transportation disk.
Details
10
29 45 I took the lead ship into my sights and dropped toward it, narrowing the range to increase the effectiveness of the silver tube.
Details
10
29 47 To my joy I saw the metal blacken and burst apart like swollen tin as I passed beneath it and began to climb rapidly toward the belly of the second craft which I ripped open with a sizzling burst of fire.
Details
10
29 48 The first craft began to turn slowly, uncontrollably, in the air and then plunged toward the ground.
Details
10
29 50 The second craft shot wildly toward the ceiling of the complex and shattered on the stone ceiling, falling back to the ground in a shower of wreckage.
Details
10
29 74 My heart leaped! Ground fire! I could imagine Misk hastening to his tools and the vast assemblage of instrumentation in his shop, or perhaps sending an outraged Priest-King to some secret arsenal where lay a forbidden weapon, one to which Misk would never have had recourse were it not for the hideou...

10
29 75 The first ship to near the exit seemed to burst into a cloud of powder but the next four ships, and myself, who had fallen into line with them, pierced the veil of powder and found ourselves coursing through the tunnel back toward Sarm's domain.

10
29 111 To my dismay I saw the last ship turning slowly toward me and I saw the disrupter cone rise and focus on me.

29 136 His abdomen now dragged on the ground but he pushed himself toward me, jaws snapping, by means of the two forward supporting appendages and the remains of his posterior appendages.
Details
10
29 142 Then, as though I were a pet Mul, the Priest-King extended his antennae toward me.
Details
10
30 71 These creatures, perhaps two hundred or more, were loosed and by means of covered transportation disks, piloted by Priest-Kings using oxygen systems internal to the disks, were driven toward the quarters of the Nest controlled by the unsuspecting Misk and his forces.
Details
10
30 78 In the next days the Golden Beetles began, naturally enough in their hunt for food, to drift toward those portions of the Nest occupied by Sarm's Priest-Kings, for in those portions of the Nest they encountered no shouting humans, no jabbing cattle goads.
Details
10
31 18 How tender I felt toward the golden giant in that moment as I realized that he, though a Priest-King, had come to give his life for mine, simply because we had once locked antennae, simply because we were friends, simply because there was Nest Trust between us.

32 165 Kusk took a step toward the Beetle.

10
32 188 Misk's antennae inclined toward me.

32 203 Moving as though in a dream, my foot touching the ground only perhaps once in thirty or forty yards, I climbed the circling ramp upward toward the elevator.
Details

33 15 I swept Vika again to my arms and, half walking, half floating, made my way downward toward the ruins of the gate.

10
10 313 Kamchak was working his kaiila through the crowd toward the first stake.
Details
10
10 343 The key to the rings hung, of course, on a small hook toward the top of the stake; it was about two inches above her head.
Details
10
10 570 Then, foot by booted foot, Kamchak advanced toward him.
Details
10
11 83 "I do not speak to slaves," said he, and the merchant, on the palanquin, moved away toward the walls of distant Turia.
Details
10
11 120 "What were you?" Then he turned his kaiila suddenly toward them and they would break and run screaming and laughing and then, like a flock of birds, take up once more the pursuit.
Details
10
11 397 I saw her eyes furtively dart toward the kaiila saddle with its seven quivas.
Details
10
11 401 "Do you not recall," asked Kamchak, "what I then said to you—what I said at that time?" "No!" cried the girl leaping up, but Kamchak had jumped toward her, scooped her up and threw her over his shoulder.
Details
10
13 88 "No!" But Kamchak was pulling her by the bracelets toward an empty sleen cage mounted on a low cart near the wagon, into which, still braceleted, he thrust her, then closing the door, locking it.
Details
10
13 169 I could now see the other haruspexes of the peoples pouring with their animals toward the altars.
Details
10
13 179 It was toward dark when Kamchak and I reached the slave wagon to buy our bottle of paga.
Details
10
14 7 Kamchak and I mounted the kaiila we had ridden and, as rapidly as we could, pressed through the throngs toward our wagon.
Details
10
14 17 Kamchak took her roughly by the arm and shoved her stumbling toward the sleen cage where, holding the bars, frightened, knelt Elizabeth Cardwell.
Details
10
14 27 Then he bounded from the top step of the wagon onto the back of his kaiila and sped toward the sound of the bosk horns.
Details
10
14 43 In the distance we heard a sound like a thunder of wings and then, against the three white moons of Gor, to my dismay, we saw tarnsmen pass overhead, striking toward the camp.
Details
10
14 47 In an instant we were hurtling through ranks of men back toward the camp.
Details
10
14 54 They must be mercenaries! Kamchak did not return to his own wagon but now raced his kaiila, followed by a hundred men, toward the high ground on which stood the standard of the four bosk horns, on which stood the huge wagon of Kutaituchik, called Ubar of the Tuchuks.
Details
10
15 49 Already the herds had been eased westward, away from Turia toward Thassa, the distant sea.
Details
10
17 86 It was almost as if it were lower in the center and the edges higher near the marble basin, inching as high as they could toward our sandals.
Details
10
17 97 It became deeper toward the center.
Details
10
17 98 About a third of the way toward the center I was entered into the pool to my waist.
Details
10
18 11 I moved toward it again, and again it did this.
Details
10
18 36 Indeed, it was even lower toward the edge now, and had humped itself in my vicinity, as though in time it might climb my body and, in some hours perhaps, engulf me.
Details
10
18 43 Each inch I moved toward the center of the pool my journey became easier.
Details
10
18 48 As it had risen toward the surface, just beneath which it now rested, its pigmentation had changed from a luminescent white to a rather darkish gray.
Details
10
18 56 By the time I had reached the level of my waist on the opposite side I could, once again, no longer move toward the edge of the pool.
Details
10
18 61 Quiva in my teeth I dove toward the deepest part of the Yellow Pool of Turia, where glowed the quickness and substance of the living thing in which I swam.
Details
10
18 74 Standing now on the high, humped dried thing—lofty on that protective coating—I leaped easily up and seized one of the low hanging vines and climbed rapidly toward the blue ceiling of the chamber.
Details
10
20 57 Two swordsmen now rushed from the building, leaping over the fallen crossbowman, and raced along the bridge toward me.
Details
10
20 61 Now I could see several more guardsmen rushing toward the bridge.
Details
10
20 161 This, I knew, was the morning on which the wagons moved away from Turia, toward distant Thassa, the Sea.
Details
10
21 49 As I hobbled through the city of Turia, one eye half shut, staring at the street as though I hoped to find a lost copper tarn disk among the stones, I made my way toward the compound of Saphrar of Turia.
Details
10
21 104 The street was deserted save for a girl, who was standing below, looking up toward the roof.
Details
10
21 276 "My name," he said, "is Harold—of the Tuchuks!" There was now screaming on the walls, the rushing of guardsmen toward the wagon.
Details
10
21 279 Two men leaped toward him with swords drawn and I leaped in front of him and engaged them, dropping one and wounding the other.
Details
10
22 124 But Kamchak was looking away disconsolately toward the rug before the throne, now stained with spilled beverages, cluttered with the thrown garbage of the feast.
Details
10
23 5 Harold and I, mounted on kaiila, raced toward these wagons.
Details
10
23 6 Thundering behind each of us was a Thousand, which would continue on toward the main Tuchuk encampment, several Ahn away.
Details
10
23 66 Raising my arm and shouting, I led the Thousand toward them, hoping to catch them before they could form and charge.
Details
10
23 75 Once again our bosk horns sounded and this time my Thousand began to cry out and jab the animals with their lances, turning them toward the Paravaci.
Details
10
24 4 Some Ahn after departing from the Tuchuk camp I encountered the wagon that carried my tarn, and its guard, still advancing toward the camp.
Details
10
24 23 Kamchak's forces, on the whole, were so disposed as to push the Turians toward two gates which he had left open and undefended, thus providing a route of escape for civilians and soldiers who would make use of it.
Details
10
24 26 The time of the year was the late spring and the prairie's climate was not unkind, though occasionally long rains must have made the lot of the refugees fleeing toward other cities miserable.
Details
10
24 141 "You would have found out long ago," said Harold, "had you not rushed off to Turia again immediately after our return—when the wagons were moving toward Ta-Thassa.
Details
10
24 173 His kaiila sprang from the room, bounding across the carpet in the next hall, and then thudding down a corridor toward the main entrance.
Details
10
24 179 "Very well," I said, and we walked our kaiila at a stately pace toward Turia's main gate.
Details
10
24 198 "I accept your wager," he cried, kicking his kaiila toward the main gate.
Details
10
25 166 "Yes, yes," I said, and stumbled as I went toward her.
Details
10
25 212 "Drink your wine," I said, pushing the bowl in her hands toward her.
Details
10
25 244 "Can it be," she asked, "that the commander of a Tuchuk Thousand does not know what to do with a girl such as I?" I reached toward her, to take her into my arms, but I found the bowl of wine in my way, deftly so.
Details
10
25 930 It was well toward morning, and he was nearly asleep, when he felt them against him, their cheek pressed against his thigh.
Details
10
26 43 Very high in the sky, no more than a small speck, speeding toward the compound of Saphrar from the direction of the tower I believed held by Ha-Keel, we saw a tarn.
Details
10
26 94 Slowly, at a walk, he rode toward the main gate of the compound.
Details
10
26 103 Then he gently moved his kaiila toward the main portal.
Details
10
26 336 Slowly, not hurrying, in his boots he tramped across the rug, toward the sound.
Details
10
26 527 "It will soon be time to hunt tumits," growled Kamchak, looking off across the grass toward the wagons beyond the walls.
Details
10
26 529 "The tumits run best this time of year rather toward the Cartius," observed Kamchak.
Details
10
26 570 I leaped from the back of the kaiila and ran toward the wagon and the girl waiting there cried out with joy and ran to me and I swept her into my arms and our lips met and she wept, "You are safe! You are safe!" "Yes," I said, "I am safe—and you are safe—and the world is safe!" At the ...
Details
10
27 196 We turned from the gate, to ride down the long avenue leading toward the main gate of Turia.
Details
10
27 203 Kamchak turned his kaiila and began to ride toward the main gate, the rest of us following.
Details
10
27 221 "This woman," said Kamchak of the Tuchuks, brusquely, his voice stern but almost breaking, "is called Aphris—know her—she is Ubara of the Tuchuks, she is Ubara Sana, of my heart Ubara Sana!" We let Kamchak and Aphris ride ahead, and followed them, by some hundred yards, toward the main...

12 4 The other bird, which had buffeted it against the edge of the ring, spun awkwardly through, turned in the air, and under the savage command of its control straps, and responding to a yellow flash of the tarn goad, regained its control and sped toward the next ring.

12 124 "Yes, Master!" I heard Hup call and begin to make his way toward the man.

13 86 At that point, looking back once more, and noting that I was still moving quickly toward her, and not willing to lose a possible rare day's freedom, she began, with the marvelous, strong trained stroke of her legs and arms, to slice swiftly through the water.

10
13 325 Suddenly with a snap of its wings I could hear more than two hundred yards away the tarn exploded from the perch, Mip low on its back, and streaked toward the first "ring," the first of three huge metal rectangles, before the round "rings" mounted at the corners and at the end of the dividing wall.

16 309 The ship nosed through the canals of Port Kar toward the hall of the Council of Captains.

10
16 342 Even before the man in the bow had tied the tharlarion-prowed longboat to a mooring post at the piazza, I had leaped up to the tiles and was striding, robes swirling, across the squares of the broad piazza toward the great door of the hall of the Council of Captains.

17 43 The original pairs, of the fifty sets of sixteen tarn ships, after cutting the line and fighting, would, if possible, regroup with their sixteen and recut the line again, this time moving toward Port Kar, and repeat these tactics.

10
17 78 Accordingly I hoped the tarn ships of Cos and Tyros, seeing the sails, would think their new enemies were single-masted round ships, of which there are some types, and either misjudge their speeds or rush on them unwarily, finding out, too late, that they were plunging headlong toward swift, maneuve...

17 134 It was the latter sail which, although it was unusual, the round ships were using for tacking; had they used either of the larger sails, with the sharp wind, they would have heeled dangerously toward the water, perhaps shipping water through the leeward thole ports.

17 138 I resumed my watch, lifting again the glass of the builders toward the west.

17 141 Behind them, scattered across the cold waters of Thassa, I could see the pairs of the second wave proceeding, swiftly gliding, oars dipping, toward the long lines of yellow and purple sails in the distance, yellow for Tyros, purple for Cos.

7 74 Two days out of Ko-ro-ba, crossing the fields northward toward Laura, the sky had darkened with a flight of outlaw tarnsmen, more than a hundred of them, under the command of the terrible Rask of Treve, one of the most dreaded warriors on all Gor.
Details
10
7 102 Fortunately, not more than two days after I had been added to Targo's chain, we encountered a caravan of bosk wagons, traveling southeast toward Ko-ro-ba from Laura.
Details
10
7 484 Once again I found myself, with the other girls, chained in our wagon, moving slowly across the Gorean fields toward Laura.
Details
10
8 8 Others, with nets, were moving down toward the water.
Details
10
8 24 The wagon began to tilt forward then and I knew we were moving down the slope toward the river bank.
Details
10
8 49 A broad, low-sided barge began to back toward the pier.
Details
10
8 81 There must be someone in Laura who could return me to the United States, or who could put me in touch with those who could! There were other barges on the river, some moving across the river, others coming toward Laura, others departing.
Details
10
8 95 The men did not even look at us, moving slowly across the current toward Laura.
Details
10
8 188 Then Targo and the one-eyed guard returned toward the stern of the barge, where two of the bargemen handled the great steering oars.
Details
10
8 218 He led them back toward the stern of the barge and onto the pier.
Details
10
8 220 The bosk, now, bellowing and snuffing, and scuffing at the wood with their hoofs, were being backed toward the harness.
Details
10
8 496 I suddenly realized, climbing the ramps of Laura toward the compound, leashed, under guard, carrying a jar of wine on my head, balancing it with my right hand, among my sisters in bondage, breathing the fantastic air of Gor, that I was happy.
Details
10
8 641 "Yes," said Inge, warmly, "superb!" "But what," wailed Ute, "if we are all purchased by the same master?" I leaned forward, menacingly toward them.
Details
10
8 724 Then, suddenly, it gave a hideously terrifying roar and sprang toward the bars, its great clawed appendages grasping towards us, its huge, fanged hole of a mouth wild with its white traps of teeth, howling and hissing.
Details
10
8 782 I saw him disappear in the darkness, toward the wagons.
Details
10
8 837 What had we done? Ute pointed through the bars at one of the groups of wagons, some hundred yards from the compound, toward the forests.
Details
10
8 908 Ute and Lana sprang to their feet and raced toward the fire.
Details
10
8 911 "Oh!" I cried, in pain, and leaped to my feet, and ran stumbling toward the fire.
Details
10
8 913 Ute, Lana and I ran, laughing and stumbling, barefoot, squealing in protest, crying out in pain, through the darkness over the grass toward the fire.
Details
10
8 953 Then I heard the laughing of the men, and turned again toward the fire.
Details
10
8 954 Back away toward the compound, here and there on the meadow, I could see other fires, and clusters of wagons.
Details
10
8 986 His fist suddenly tightened the loop, and I gasped, being suddenly drawn toward him.

8 1004 Lana screeched with rage as Ute, and the men, laughed, and leaped toward me.

8 1078 His large head bent toward my throat.

8 1192 I shook my head, No! Without looking back she then strode, spear in hand, from the camp, toward the dark forests in the distance.
Details
10
8 1194 The choke leash slid shut on my throat and, half strangling, stumbling, stripped and gagged, my hands bound behind my back, I was dragged after them, toward the darkness of the forest.
Details
10
9 120 One of the girls cried out and leaped toward me, the knife flashing in her hand.
Details
10
9 129 The girl, clad like the others in the skins of forest panthers, who had held my leash, and now again held it, she who had bound me, her sleen knife again in its sheath, thrust her face toward mine.

10 503 He brought the match toward the cigarette, and I bent forward for the light.

10 515 I screamed, thrust toward the wide, fanged jaws of the beast.

10
10 637 Wildly the man bent down to the fire and picked up a piece of wood from the fire, burning, and thrust it toward the sleen.
Details
10
10 652 Then, with a cry of rage, it leapt toward the sleen.
Details
10
10 680 I, forgotten by the beast in its feeding, inched toward the door, and then, hearing the feeding of the beast behind me, fled, naked and bound, into the darkness.
Details
10
11 427 He clapped his hands and took a step toward me, and I turned and fled stumbling away again, hearing his laughter in the hallway behind me.

10
11 450 The guard then looked toward Inge, within the cage, and, instantly, under his eye, she stood straight, exhibiting herself as I had, as a lovely stripped slave.
