Chapter # Sentence # Quote Confidence
10 263 The theoretical justification of the games of Love War, from the Turian point of view, is that they provide an excellent arena in which to demonstrate the fierceness and prowess of Turian warriors, thus perhaps intimidating or, at the very least, encouraging the often overbold warriors of the Wagon ...

8 34 Indeed, even the chains and collars of slave girls, worn often by captive Turian girls themselves, are of Turian origin.

8 243 The problem of the young man, and perhaps the reason that he had not yet won even the Courage Scar of the Tuchuks, was that he had fallen into the hands of Turian raiders in his youth and had spent several years in the city; in his adolescence he had, at great risk to himself, escaped from the city ...
Details
10
10 264 The secret justification, I suspect, however, is that the Turian warrior is fond of meeting the enemy and acquiring his women, particularly should they be striking little beasts, like Hereena of the First Wagon, as untamed and savage as they are beautiful; it is regarded as a great sport among Turia...

10 562 Each time the Turian struck and I would have thought Kamchak slain, somehow, incomprehensibly, at the last instant, nearly causing my heart to stop, with a surprised, weary little twitch, the blade of the Tuchuk would slide the Turian steel harmlessly to the side.

10
12 170 It was a worn, stained Turian camisk, doubtless one that had been worn by one of the Turian maidens acquired in Love War.
Details
10
15 90 Once he pounded the rug on the polished floor in front of him and cried out angrily, as though to remind himself of some significant and inalterable fact, "She is Turian! Turian!" The work of the wagon was done by Tuka and another girl, whom Kamchak hired for the purpose.
Details
10
26 99 And following him, among the warriors, were several Turian slaves, clad in chains and the Kes, among them Kamras, Champion of Turia, and Phanius Turmus, the Turian Ubar, all of whom carried large pans filled with sacks of gold.
Details
10
5 24 She wore the Turian collar, rather than the common slave collar.
Details
10
5 25 The Turian collar lies loosely on the girl, a round ring; it fits so loosely that, when grasped in a man's fist, the girl can turn within it; the common Gorean collar, on the other hand, is a flat, snugly fitting steel band.
Details
10
5 27 The Turian collar is more difficult to engrave, but it, like the flat collar, will bear some legend assuring that the girl, if found, will be promptly returned to her master.
Details
10
5 29 "She is Turian?" I asked.
Details
10
5 37 "Turian girls are proud," said Kamchak.
Details
10
6 92 There was a murmur of approval from the crowd; even some of the enslaved Turian beauties, in spite of themselves, cried out in admiration.
Details
10
7 13 There were also, among the other goods, two girls, blonde and blue-eyed, unclothed, chained; they had perhaps been a gift to Kutaituchik; or had been the daughters of enemies; they might have been from any city; both were beautiful; one was sitting with her knees tucked under her chin, her hands cla...

7 14 At the edge of the dais Kamchak and I had stopped, where our sandals were removed and our feet washed by Turian slaves, men in the Kes, who might once have been officers of the city.

7 72 During all this time, and torches had been brought, the hours of the night being burned away, Elizabeth Cardwell was not permitted to move, but must needs retain the position of the Pleasure Slave, knees properly placed, back straight, head high, the gleaming chain of the Sirik dangling from the Tur...

10
7 144 "The collar," said Kamchak, "is Turian".
Details
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.
Details
10
7 201 "Do you think Priest-Kings would use a Turian message collar?" He pointed his broad finger at Elizabeth Cardwell.

8 53 The Wintering was not unpleasant, although, even so far north, the days and nights were often quite chilly; the Wagon Peoples, and their slaves as well, wore boskhide and furs during this time; both male and female, slave or free, wore furred boots and trousers, coats and the flopping, ear-flapped c...

10
8 80 Of course, Kamchak had rented three Turian girls, slaves, to train her; they had done so, binding her wrists and leading her about the wagons, teaching her the words for things, beating her with switches when she made mistakes; Elizabeth had learned quickly.
Details
10
8 108 I supposed that on the morrow Kamchak would call for the Tuchuk Iron Master, to brand what he called his little barbarian; the brand of the Tuchuk slave, incidentally, is not the same as that generally used in the cities, which, for girls, is the first letter of the expression Kajira in cursive scri...

10
8 141 Moreover, he did not brand her, nor fix in her nose the tiny golden ring of the Tuchuk women, nor did he even, incomprehensibly, put her in the Turian collar.
Details
10
8 187 The other girls were both Turian.
Details
10
8 226 Turian warriors, he told me, enjoy such women, the wild girls of the Wagons.

10
8 234 "Turian slave!" she laughed scornfully.

10
8 244 His parents and people had been slain in the Turian raid in which he had been captured, so he had no kin.
Details
10
8 264 I saw a flash of copper, perhaps a tarn disk from one of the distant cities, and one of the warrior's girls, an attractive Turian wench, Tuka, began to remove her fur.
Details
10
8 342 "Well done," said Albrecht, her master, adding with a grin, "—for a Turian slave".
Details
10
8 359 One of the best among the wagons I had heard was a Kassar slave, a swift Turian wench whose name was Dina.
Details
10
8 410 Then, to my surprise, she looked at me boldly, though wearing the Turian collar; though she wore the nose ring; though she were only a branded slave clad Kajir.
Details
10
8 437 "You are not a Kassar girl—you are only a Turian slave of Kassars".
Details
10
8 461 But he had not; the fine little Turian wench who had been able to bite the neck of the kaiila, thereby risking her life incidentally, had seen to that.
Details
10
8 463 Even the Turian girl, Dina, perhaps the best slave among all the wagons in this sport, was laughing, hanging on the stirrup of Albrecht, looking up at him.
Details
10
9 64 The Turian feast usually consumes the better part of a night and can have as many as a hundred and fifty courses.
Details
10
9 72 Turian embassies to the Wagon Peoples, when they occurred, naturally strove to equal or surpass these gifts.
Details
10
9 93 Among the Wagons, clad in a brief bit of cord and leather, branded, wearing nose ring and Turian collar, could be found many of the beauties of Turia.
Details
10
9 94 Indeed, to the annoyance of Elizabeth Cardwell, who had spent her nights under the wagon in the last weeks, there were two such in our own wagon, the girl Dina, whom I had snared in the contests of the bola, and her companion, the fine wench who had bitten the neck of Kamchak's kaiila and had attemp...

9 126 The women in bondage present, who served us, each wore four golden rings on each ankle and each wrist, locked on, which clashed as they walked or moved, adding their sound to the slave bells that had been fixed on their Turian collars, and that hung from their hair; the ears of each, too, had been p...
Details
10
9 127 The single garment of these women was the Turian camisk.
Details
10
9 131 The Turian camisk, on the other hand, if it were to be laid out on the floor, would appear somewhat like an inverted "T" in which the bar of the "T" would be beveled on each side.
Details
10
9 133 The Turian camisk, unlike the common camisk, will cover a girl's brand; on the other hand, unlike the common camisk, it leaves the back uncovered and can be tied, and is, snugly, the better to disclose the girl's beauty.
Details
10
9 136 In any event, women in a camisk, whether a common camisk or a Turian camisk, well know themselves slave.
Details
10
9 173 Saphrar was not related to the girl, but had been appointed by the Turian merchants, on whom he undoubtedly exercised considerable influence, the guardian of the girl following the death of her father in a Paravaci caravan raid several years before.
Details
10
9 254 "Bring perfumes!" she called to the Feast Steward, and he sent forth a camisk-clad slave who carried a tiny tray of exotic Turian perfumes.
Details
10
9 302 No Tuchuk, I knew, cares to be the butt of a joke, especially a Turian joke.
Details
10
9 304 Then he took his goblet of paga and drained it, watching the girls swaying to the caress of Turian melodies.
Details
10
9 328 I heard the sound of slave bells attached to ankle rings, to locked wrist bracelets, to Turian collars.
Details
10
9 360 It was then clear to me why the Turian men so hungered for the wenches of the Wagon Peoples.
Details
10
9 415 But it was a round metal ring, a Turian collar, the collar of a slave.
Details
10
10 26 "Is it your wish," she asked, "that I run for the city?" She referred to a cruel sport of the young men of the wagons who sometimes take Turian slave girls to the sight of Turia's walls and then, loosening bola and thong, bid them run for the city.
Details
10
10 59 "Turian girls are never freed," she said.
Details
10
10 117 I think it was then, perhaps the first time since her first coming to the Wagon Peoples, that she fully understood her plight—for Kamchak had, on the whole, been kind to her—he had not put the Tuchuk ring in her nose, nor had he clothed her Kajir, nor put the brand of the bosk horns on...
Details
10
10 196 I heard some musicians, come out early from Turia, playing a light tune behind the Turian stakes, about fifty yards or so away.
Details
10
10 235 "It is a Turian joke," said Kamchak.
Details
10
10 258 "Hah!" said Kamchak, seeing now the lines of tharlarion part for a space of perhaps forty yards, through which could be seen the screened palanquins of Turian damsels, some on the shoulders of chained slaves, among them undoubtedly men of the Wagon Peoples.
Details
10
10 265 It might also be mentioned that the Turian warrior, in his opinion, too seldom encounters the warrior of the Wagon Peoples, who tends to be a frustrating, swift and elusive foe, striking with great rapidity and withdrawing with goods and captives almost before it is understood what has occurred.
Details
10
10 284 The Turian wench was beautiful indeed, that she could stand at the first stake.
Details
10
10 288 In this way the Turian girls can see their city and their warriors, and the girls of the Wagons can see the plains and the warriors of the Wagon Peoples.
Details
10
10 290 Thus, to interfere, a Turian would have to cross the space between the stakes, and so, too, would one of the Wagon Peoples, thus clearly calling themselves to the attention of the judges, those officials supervising the games.
Details
10
10 305 I supposed, in spite of their apparent lack of concern, the hearts of most of the Turian girls were beating rapidly.
Details
10
10 308 Yet I knew that beneath those Robes of Concealment many wore the shameful Turian camisk, perhaps the only time the hated garment would touch their bodies, for should their warrior lose this match they knew they would not be permitted to leave the stake in the robes in which they came.
Details
10
10 349 All along the lines of stakes I saw Turian warriors and those of the Wagon Peoples press into the area between the stakes.
Details
10
10 351 Turian warriors walked along the line of stakes, examining them, stepping back when one spit or kicked at him.
Details
10
10 353 At the request of any warrior of the Wagon Peoples, a judge would remove the pins of the face veil of a Turian girl and push back the hood of her Robes of Concealment, in order that her head and face might be seen.
Details
10
10 354 This aspect of the games was extremely humiliating for the Turian girls, but they understood its necessity; few men, especially barbarian warriors, care to fight for a woman on whose face they have not even looked.
Details
10
10 377 But he and I, before we finished, had looked over each of the Turian beauties.
Details
10
10 413 I had seen Conrad about, but he had picked out a Turian wench to fight for some six or seven stakes away.
Details
10
10 421 "Look at the Turian wench!" cried the girl.
Details
10
10 435 He wore a helmet and carried the Turian shield, which is oval.
Details
10
10 444 Unfortunately for Kamchak, I knew that this was the year in which the Turian foeman might propose the weapon of combat.
Details
10
10 448 The Turian's decision plunged me into despair.
Details
10
10 456 Incidentally, Turian warriors, in order to have the opportunity to slay a foe, as well as acquire his woman, customarily choose as the weapon of combat in these encounters, buckler and dagger, ax and buckler, dagger and whip, ax and net, or the two daggers, with the reservation that the quiva, if us...
Details
10
11 100 He then led the numb, unresisting Turian maiden to his kaiila.
Details
10
11 118 Slave girls ran beside us, jeering at Kamchak's tethered prize; free women looked up from their ladles and kettles to stare with jaundiced eye at yet another Turian woman brought to the camp.
Details
10
11 174 This year, as it turned out, the Wagon Peoples had done exceedingly well in the games of Love War—a bit of news we picked up with the paga—and about seventy percent of the Turian maidens had been led slave from the stakes to which they had been manacled.
Details
10
11 177 We also heard that the wench Hereena, of the First Wagon, had been won by a Turian officer representing the house of Saphrar of the Merchants, to whom, for a fee, he presented her.
Details
10
11 182 It was too bad, I thought, but at least I supposed there would be one fellow among the wagons, the young man Harold, he whom the girl had so abused, he who had not yet won the Courage Scar, who would be just as pleased as not that she, with all her contempt and spleen, was now delightfully salted aw...
Details
10
11 260 "Who, may I ask," asked Aphris, "were Tenchika and Dina?" "Slaves, Turian wenches," said Kamchak.
Details
10
11 269 At this the Turian maiden trembled slightly, and looked down.
Details
10
11 341 She threw back her hand with the knife to rush forward and thrust it into the heart of Kamchak but the coil of the whip lashed forth and I saw its stinging tip wrap four times about the wrist and forearm of the Turian girl who cried out in sudden pain and Kamchak had stepped to the side and with a m...
Details
10
11 365 "For a Turian slave," he added.
Details
10
12 57 Aphris of Turia wore bells and collar, about her neck the Turian collar hung with bells, about each wrist and ankle, locked, a double row of bells.
Details
10
12 161 "Well," said Kamchak, "what is it that a Turian wench would crave of her master?" "Nothing," said Aphris.
Details
10
12 190 "I will show you how to wear a camisk," said Kamchak, taking the cord and adjusting it with two or three pulls and jerks that just about took the wind out of the Turian girl.
Details
10
12 198 "For a Turian slave," added Kamchak.
Details
10
12 199 "Of course," she laughed, "for a Turian slave!" "We will be late for the performance," said Elizabeth, "if we do not hurry".
Details
10
12 407 He pushed up her head and then, with a click that could be heard throughout the enclosure, closed the collar—a Turian collar—about her throat.
Details
10
12 416 She turned within the collar, as the Turian collar is designed to permit.
Details
10
12 422 At last his fist was within the Turian collar itself and he drew the girl, piteous and exhausted, to his lips, subduing her with his kiss, and then her arms were about his neck and unresisting, obedient, her head to his chest, she was lifted lightly in his arms and carried from the firelight.
Details
10
12 501 He had, however, I knew, recently won a Turian girl in the games.
Details
10
13 142 Among the animals I saw many verr; some domestic tarsks, their tusks sheathed; cages of flapping vulos, some sleen, some kaiila, even some bosk; by the Paravaci haruspexes I saw manacled male slaves, if such were to be permitted; commonly, I understood from Kamchak, the Tuchuks, Kassars and Kataii r...
Details
10
13 185 The Iron Master affixed the Turian collar.
Details
10
14 24 The wagons, in Turian raids, are burned.
Details
10
15 62 She was Turian.
Details
10
15 64 He unlocked the door and ordered the Turian maiden forth, commanding her to stand before him, head down.
Details
10
15 69 "Because you are Turian," he said.
Details
10
15 94 She seemed to leave the distressed, red-eyed Aphris of Turia alone, perhaps because she was Turian, perhaps because she had no grievance against her.
Details
10
15 131 "That is interesting," said Harold, "for I had thought I might try chain luck in the Pleasure Gardens of a Turian merchant named Saphrar".
Details
10
15 135 "They are poison teeth," remarked Harold, "a Turian affectation—but quite deadly, being filled with the venom of the ost".
Details
10
16 71 The Turian wells, incidentally, have no raised wall, but are, save for a rim of about two inches in height, flat with the level.
Details
10
16 129 * * * * Harold and I had been fastened in a Turian slave bar, a metal bar with a collar at each end and, behind the collar, manacles which fasten the prisoner's hands behind his neck.
Details
10
16 250 It was a Turian saying.
Details
10
19 94 She wore yellow Pleasure Silk, and, beneath her long black hair, on her throat, I glimpsed a silverish Turian collar.
Details
10
19 127 "You are only a little Turian slave girl," said Harold, "who has taken my fancy".
Details
10
20 116 "Is he Turian?" "I had hoped to find Ho-bar," said Harold, "but perhaps you will do".
Details
10
21 140 This pleased her, as I guessed anything would which was contrary to the interests of the Turian merchant, for whom she entertained the greatest hatred.
Details
10
21 172 Indeed, the broad walk, some thirty feet wide, within the high walls of Turia, with the view over the plains, is a favorite promenade of Turian couples.
Details
10
21 285 My Turian foe took the short sword under the heart.
Details
10
21 355 Another wall, on the other side of the avenue, tumbled downward, two Turian warriors leaping from it, being ridden down by Tuchuks, leaping over the burning debris on kaiilaback, lance in hand.
Details
10
22 14 I had no wish to be brought down with a Tuchuk arrow in the streets as a Turian civilian.
Details
10
22 19 When I lifted my head from the fountain in the Turian street Harold cried out in amazement, "Why you ARE Tarl Cabot!" "Yes," I had responded.
Details
10
22 32 I then wished to proceed immediately to the palace of Phanius Turmus, where Kamchak had set up his headquarters, to place myself at his disposal, but Harold insisted rather on trooping about the city, here and there examining pockets of Turian resistance.
Details
10
22 43 "Turian women," said Harold, "taken by Tuchuks".
Details
10
22 67 Some Gorean coins are drilled, incidentally, to allow stringing, the coins of Tharna, for example; Turian coins, and most others, are not.
Details
10
22 74 Here I saw, along one wall, a long line of Turian women, unclothed, who were kneeling, fastened together in various ways, some by chains, some by thongs.
Details
10
22 115 Before them had been placed large golden dishes heaped with delicacies prepared by the kitchens of the Ubar, tall precious goblets filled with Turian wines, the small bowls of spices and sugars with their stirring spoons at hand.
Details
10
22 116 The tables were served by naked Turian girls, from the highest families of the city.
Details
10
22 140 At one point three Tuchuk girls, in swirling silks, switches in their hands, came into the room dragging a wretched, stripped Turian girl.
Details
10
22 142 "She was our mistress!" cried one of the Tuchuk girls leading the Turian girl, and struck her sharply with the switch, at which information the Tuchuk girls at the tables clapped their hands with delight.
Details
10
22 148 One beautiful Turian girl was thrown, weeping and bound, into the arms of a leather-clad Tuchuk for only seven copper tarn disks.
Details
10
22 151 He gestured at the captive Turian men.
Details
10
23 122 Free women, and even some Turian slave girls, went to and fro, bringing water and, here and there, where there was point in it, binding wounds.
Details
10
23 217 There was a brass ladle that Aphris and Elizabeth had used in cooking and a tin box of yellow Turian sugar, dented in now and its contents scattered; and the large, gray leathery object which I had upon occasion seen Kamchak use as a stool, that which he had once kicked across the floor for my inspe...
Details
10
24 28 Also, Kamchak, to my pleasure but surprise, had had his men drive verr flocks and some Turian bosk after the refugees.
Details
10
24 52 Each warrior had at his disposal five crossbows and four Turian slaves, for winding and loading the bows.
Details
10
24 66 Ha-Keel had, we estimated, most of a thousand tarnsmen still with him, plus many Turian guardsmen.
Details
10
25 49 The engraving on the Turian collar consisted of the sign of the four bosk horns and the sign of the city of Ko-ro-ba, which I took it, Kamchak had used for my sign.
Details
10
25 127 "They do not even inflict that on their Turian slaves".
Details
10
25 128 I added, "And it is one of the great fears of a Tuchuk girl that, should she fall into Turian hands, it will be done to her".
Details
10
25 162 About her throat was the Turian collar with its chain, attached to slave bracelets and ankle rings, one of the latter attached to the chain running to the slave ring.
Details
10
25 295 She was not natively Turian, nor Tuchuk.
Details
10
25 619 I saw on her lovely throat the harsh ring of Turian steel, gleaming and locked, so contrasting with, so barbarically accentuating the incredible softness of her beauty, the tormenting vulnerability of it.
Details
10
25 656 I put my two hands in the Turian circlet, and, lifting it up, against her chin, forcing her head back, thrust her back some inches.
Details
10
25 669 By the Turian collar one may control a girl in a variety of ways, dragging a girl to one side or another, turning her, force her downward, to her knees or back, and so on.
Details
10
26 59 "They were well paid," said Harold, "with Turian gold—of which substance we have a great deal".
Details
10
26 68 The fighting would be fierce, but it did not seem that the outcome would be in doubt, even from the beginning—particularly now that the tarnsmen of Ha-Keel had left the city, the saddle packs of their tarns bulging with Turian gold.
Details
10
26 179 In that moment, uttering the Turian war cry, the young man rushed forward with his sword on Kamchak and the dozen arrows flew simultaneously, striking him a dozen times, turning him twice.
Details
10
26 528 Well did I recall how Kamchak had made Albrecht of the Kassars pay dearly for the return of his little darling, Tenchika, and how he had roared with laughter because the Kassar had paid such a price, obviously having allowed himself to care for a mere slave girl, and she a Turian at that! "I would g...
Details
10
26 553 "You might have pointed out," said Harold to Kamchak, "that the gold was Turian gold".
Details
10
26 554 "Yes," cried Kamchak, "that is true—it was Turian gold!" He cracked his fist on his thigh.
Details
10
26 555 "Turian gold!" "One might claim," said Harold, "that that makes quite a difference".
Details
10
27 4 The Turian Ubar himself, with Kamras, former Champion of Turia, both clad in the Kes, were chained at the door, to wash the feet of those who would enter.
Details
10
27 55 "For the first time in more than a hundred years," said the Paravaci, "there is a Ubar San, a One Ubar, Master of the Wagons!" Kamchak stood up and threw from his shoulders the purple of the Turian Ubar and stood in the black leather of a Tuchuk.
Details
10
27 157 Kamchak's hands were at the small, heavy lock at the back of the steel, Turian collar she wore.
Details
10
27 181 "Why is it," I asked Harold, "that he so spared Turia?" "His mother was Turian," said Harold.
Details
10
27 191 "Yes," he said, "she had been a Turian girl—taken as slave by Kutaituchik—but he cared for her and freed her.
Details
10
28 13 At that juncture, as I recall, Elizabeth was kneeling on top of the Turian maiden with her hands in her hair pounding her head up and down in the dirt.

11 97 One could tell a Turian because he insisted on celebrating the New Year at the summer solstice, for instance.

11 99 The Turian collar, too, a looser ring of steel, large enough for a man's fist to grasp on the girl's throat, was occasionally seen now in the northern cities.

11 100 The piercing of the ears of slave girls, that they might have earrings fastened in them, was another Turian custom.

12 28 It was a "common camisk," of course, as was the first one I had worn, not a Turian camisk.

12 29 A Turian camisk is perhaps too fine a garment for an ordinary girl.
