Chapter #	Sentence #	Quote	Confidence
14	33	"But I, Marlenus, though a warrior, was more than a warrior, always more than a warrior.	10
3	62	I was specially drilled in the Code of the Warrior Caste.	10
3	65	The Code of the Warrior was, in general, characterized by a rudimentary chivalry, emphasizing loyalty to the Pride Chiefs and the Home Stone.	10
3	84	But, similarly, if a child does not show the aptitude expected of his caste, whether it be, say, that of physician or warrior, he is lowered in caste".	10
3	90	"It is part of the Warrior's Code".	10
3	165	His whole body, his carriage, the holding of his head bespoke the warrior, a man who knew his weapons and, on the simple world of Gor, knew that he could kill almost any man who might stand against him.	10
3	176	"You must stand and be slain like a warrior!" Torm tucked a scroll, which he had been pretending to read, under his arm.	10
3	194	I would have supposed that armor, or chain mail perhaps, would have been a desirable addition to the accouterments of the Gorean warrior, but it had been forbidden by the Priest-Kings.	10
3	203	The Older Tarl, my redoubtable instructor in arms, did not care for them, regarding them as secondary weapons almost unworthy for the hand of a warrior.	10
3	269	The tarn is one of the two most common mounts of a Gorean warrior; the other is the high tharlarion, a species of saddle-lizard, used mostly by clans who have never mastered tarns.	10
3	278	It sounded like something out of the Code of the Warrior, something which, if taken literally, would seem to encourage its believer to take not the slightest or most sane precautions for his safety.	10
4	92	I caught a glimpse of a black helmet through the port as a warrior, still clutching a crossbow and mounted on his tarn, hauled up on the one-strap and flew from the window.	10
4	157	"Will you keep the Code of the Warrior?" asked my father.	10
4	163	"Then," said my father, placing his hands solemnly on my shoulders, "in virtue of my authority as Administrator of this city and in the presence of the Council of High Castes, I declare you to be a Warrior of Ko-ro-ba".	10
4	166	Aside from candidates for the status of Warrior, none of my caste was permitted to enter the Council armed.	10
5	47	Any attempt on the Home Stone was regarded by the citizens of a city as sacrilege of the most heinous variety and punishable by the most painful of deaths, but, paradoxically, it was regarded as the greatest of glories to purloin the Home Stone of another city, and the warrior who managed this was a...	10
5	53	In Ar, for example, early in the day, a member of the Builders will go to the roof on which the Home Stone is kept and place the primitive symbol of his trade, a metal angle square, before the Stone, praying to the Priest-Kings for the prosperity of his caste in the coming year; later in the day a W...	10
5	83	"In the carrying baskets, but not as a warrior rides".	10
5	114	On a Warrior's allowance I would not have been able to afford her.	10
5	157	Before I had time to gather my senses, a dark winged shape had materialized in front of me, and, in the light of the three moons, I saw a warrior on a tarn passing, thrusting out with his spear.	10
5	178	The other warrior pulled his tarn about as if for another passage at arms, but then, as if suddenly realizing that his duty was to give the alarm, he shouted at me in rage and wheeled his tarn again, streaking for the lights of Ar.	10
5	181	As we neared the fleeing warrior, I fitted a second arrow to my bow.	10
5	182	Rather than kill the warrior, I loosed the arrow into the wing of his tarn.	10
5	184	The warrior could no longer control the mount, and I saw the tarn dropping awkwardly, descending in drunken circles to the darkness below.	10
6	9	Once a warrior without a helmet flew near, drunk, and challenged me for the perch, a wild tarnsman of low rank, spoiling for a fight.	10
7	74	What was it she thought I was waiting for? Then, to my astonishment, the daughter of the Ubar Marlenus, daughter of the Ubar of Ar, knelt before me, a simple warrior of Ko-ro-ba, and lowered her head, lifting and extending her arms, the wrists crossed.	10
7	95	"I do not ask your name, Warrior," he said, "nor will I repeat the name of your city before the Submitted One, but know that you and your city are honored by the Spider People".	10
7	192	"With all my heart, Warrior," she pleaded, "the daughter of a Ubar, on her knees, begs your favor.	10
7	201	"If you had been a true warrior," she said, "you would have taken me on the back of your tarn, above the clouds, even before we had passed the outermost ramparts of Ar, and you would have thrown my robes to the streets below to show my people what had been the fate of the daughter of their Ubar".	10
7	205	"Well, Warrior," she said, "what would you have me do?" "Remove your clothing," I said.	10
8	133	"Is it different in your city, Warrior?" "Yes," I said, remembering that in Ko-ro-ba, primitive though it was, the family was respected and maintained.	10
8	137	"What is your city, Warrior?" "Not Ar," I replied.	10
8	198	I cursed her, for she took unfair advantage of the Warrior Codes of Gor.	10
9	25	Free women on Gor do not travel attended by only a single warrior, not of their own free will.	10
9	82	"So," she said contemptuously, "that is how a Warrior tarnsman treats the daughter of a rich merchant?" I rolled onto the ground, turning away from her, unable to sleep.	10
9	87	"A warrior," I guessed.	10
9	92	In a minute the rider appeared in view—a fine, bearded warrior with a golden helmet and a tharlarion lance.	10
9	97	"Who are you?" demanded the warrior.	10
9	99	"Bristol?" asked the warrior, puzzled.	10
9	101	"No," admitted the warrior.	10
9	105	The warrior gestured at Talena with his lance.	10
9	108	The warrior laughed and slapped his thigh.	10
9	120	"I did not speak to the girl," said the warrior.	10
9	123	"She has spirit," said the warrior.	10
9	125	"To the banks of the Vosk, to the City of Tents," said the warrior.	10
9	127	"You should beat her," said the warrior, but responded to the girl.	10
9	130	"What news of the Home Stone of Ar and the daughter of Marlenus?" I asked, feeling it would be the sort of thing the warrior would expect me to be interested in.	10
9	135	"She is undoubtedly in the Pleasure Gardens of the boldest tarnsman on Gor," laughed the warrior.	10
9	139	"I like this girl," said the warrior.	10
9	143	The warrior's face clouded, but only for an instant.	10
9	160	Then she saw the wounded warrior.	10
9	164	The warrior, who held his shoulder, blood streaming down from his hand, smiled bitterly.	10
9	167	Talena seized her dagger from my belt and raced to the warrior.	10
9	172	"You should use the whip on her," said the warrior matter-of-factly.	10
10	3	Kazrak's remark was in accord with the strange warrior codes of Gor, codes which were as natural to him as the air he breathed, and codes which I, in the Chamber of the Council of Ko-ro-ba, had sworn to uphold.	10
10	80	"I will share the tent of my warrior".	10
10	132	Also, I didn't want Kazrak, when his wound was healed, to be reduced to challenging some luckless warrior for a bottle of Ka-la-na wine.	10
10	163	"Leave us, Warrior," I said.	10
12	69	The image of the treacherous, beautiful Talena, in her dancing silks, as she had lain in my arms, tormented me—she who would gladly give her kisses to the cold Pa-Kur for a place on the throne of Ar, she whose implacable hatred had sent me to this terrible death, not even permitting me the ho...	10
13	53	When, twenty feet away, the great, bounding beast, fangs bared, leaped for its prey, it encountered instead only the slender needle of my spear, set like a stake in the ground, braced by the half-naked body of a warrior of Ko-ro-ba.	10
13	113	In his hand was a warrior's sword, and the point was at my breast.	10
14	4	I gathered that he had finally seen fit to terminate the suffering of the warrior who had stolen the Home Stone of his city.	10
14	26	"You are a young and brave and foolish warrior," he said.	10
14	97	"Well done, young warrior," acclaimed Marlenus.	10
14	101	"Has this warrior not earned his right to the tarn death?" "He has indeed," said one of the tarnsmen, who held a wadded lump of tunic over his slashed rib cage.	10
14	133	"Good-bye, Warrior," he called.	10
15	49	Soon, my heart beating quickly, my features concealed by the helmet I had taken from the warrior in the Voltai, I approached the compound of Mintar.	10
15	75	Still I would not speak, not while he controlled a weapon; unfortunately, the first thing a Gorean warrior is likely to do to the stranger in his tent is kill him, the second is to find out who he is.	10
15	120	He sat cross-legged, his back straight and his head high, in the fashion of a warrior.	10
15	210	"The men of Ar need no help from a warrior of Ko-ro-ba".	10
15	249	"Perhaps it is true, as they say, that you are that warrior brought every thousand years to Gor—brought by the Priest-Kings to change a world".	10
15	264	"A merchant may be as brave as a warrior, young Tarnsman," smiled Mintar.	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
17	30	I truly believe that the brave men of Ar, in their valorous if blind love for their city, would have maintained the walls until the last slain warrior had been thrown from them to the streets below, but the Initiates would not have it so.	10
17	54	Officers in the Warrior Caste and their families were to be impaled, and in the population at large every tenth man would be executed.	10
17	97	It is unbefitting a warrior of Gor.	10
17	98	It was as a warrior of Gor that I arose and donned the black helmet and the garments of the Caste of Assassins.	10
18	172	I seemed to be beside myself and fought as if I might not be what I knew I was, what I thought myself to be—Tarl Cabot, a simple warrior, one man.	10
19	248	"Are you a true warrior?" she asked, her eyes bright with mischief, testing me, her voice breathless.	10
20	36	I was honored that the little scribe had separated himself from his beloved scrolls long enough to share my happiness, only that of a warrior.	10

Book 2. (113 results) Outlaw of Gor

Chapter #	Sentence #	Quote	Confidence
22	134	"When I saw you, Warrior, I thought that you might be the warrior of this dream.	10
24	19	Almost as one they cried out, "Tal, Warrior!" "Tal, Warriors!" I responded, raising my arm, addressing them all by the title of my caste, for I knew that in their common cause each was a warrior.	10
1	142	It was a document pertaining to what Cabot called the Counter-Earth, the story of a warrior, of the siege of a city, and of the love of a girl.	10
2	76	When the tarn is presented to a warrior, or sold to one, the whistle accompanies the bird.	10
2	77	Needless to say, the whistle is important and carefully guarded, for should it be lost or fall into the hands of an enemy the warrior has, for all practical purposes, lost his mount.	10
2	78	I now dressed myself in the scarlet garb of a warrior of Gor.	10
2	86	Where my father had met me after more than twenty years of separation, where my warrior comrades and I had drunk and laughed together, where I had met and learned from my little friend, Torm, the Scribe, there was home.	10
2	88	I became aware that I was singing as I walked through the grass, a warrior song.	10
3	69	"A warrior takes what he wishes," said the man.	10
3	80	"Then, Warrior," said the man, issuing Gor's blunt invitation to a low-caste dinner, "share my kettle".	10
3	84	Indeed, frequent enough were the stories where even a warrior was overcome by an angry peasant into whose hut he had intruded himself, for in the vicinity of their Home Stones men fight with all the courage, savagery and resourcefulness of the mountain larl.	10
5	114	"No, Friend," I said to the remains of the former warrior of Ar.	10
6	72	Proudly, he presents her to his parents, his friends and warrior comrades.	10
6	142	"Tal, Warrior," she said, softly, her voice emotionless.	10
6	196	The officer was the third man in the formation, and the other warrior hung several yards in the rear.	10
6	210	"Warrior, do not die for my sake.	10
7	1	Thorn, Captain of Tharna With one sound three blades sprang from their sheaths, mine, that of the officer and that of the warrior who would first engage me.	10
7	2	The man on the right would not draw his blade but wait until the first warrior had made his attack and would then strike from the side with the spear.	10
7	3	The warrior in the rear only lifted his spear, ready to cast it should a clean opening present itself.	10
7	5	I suddenly turned on the warrior on my right with the spear and with the swiftness of the mountain larl sprang at him, evaded his clumsy, startled thrust, and drove my blade between his ribs, jerking it free and turning just in time to meet the sword attack of his companion.	10
7	12	The other warrior, behind him, his spear poised, had approached to within ten yards.	10
7	18	But Thorn backed away and signaled to the other warrior to lower his spear.	10
7	19	He removed his helmet, and sat on his heels in the grass, the warrior behind him.	10
7	41	The other warrior was clearly dead.	10
7	71	Thorn and his warrior sprang to their feet.	10
7	73	"Returned from the Cities of Dust," gasped the warrior.	10
7	86	Silently, Thorn and the other warrior scooped out a narrow trench and buried their comrade.	10
7	88	On this, Thorn and his warrior placed their wounded companion.	10
7	121	"Stay your hand, Warrior," said Thorn.	10
7	126	I could kill Thorn and his warrior perhaps, free her.	10
7	137	And then, as Thorn and the warrior picked up the litter with their wounded companion and began to depart, she said to me, "Good-bye, Tarl of Ko-ro-ba".	10
8	23	Some of these masks had turned to gaze upon me as I passed, my scarlet warrior's tunic having caught their eye.	10
9	53	"How many hours, Warrior," asked he, "have you been within the walls of Tharna?" "At the sixth hour I came to Tharna," I said.	10
9	62	"Thank you, Warrior," I said, and turned back to the city.	10
9	79	I must have seemed strange to them, a scarlet-clad warrior, bearing weapons, suddenly entering, a man from another city unexpectedly in their midst.	10
9	131	"Yes, Warrior," cried he.	10
9	148	Soon, pounding the time on the table with the butt of my spear, I was leading a raucous round of songs, mostly wild drinking songs, warrior songs, songs of the encampment and march, but too I taught them songs I had learned in the caravan of Mintar the Merchant, so long ago, when I had first loved T...	10
10	8	"Are you a warrior?" asked the guardsman.	10
10	21	I felt that even had I chosen to forswear my pledge, which as a warrior of Gor I would not, my chances of escape would have been small indeed.	10
11	22	One such helmeted warrior stood near the foot of the throne.	10
11	27	The warrior at the foot of the throne removed his helmet.	10
11	67	"I am a warrior," I responded.	10
11	75	"Warrior," she said.	10
11	122	"How is it," I asked, "that you spare a warrior the whip and would use it on so miserable a wretch as Ost?" "I had hoped you guiltless, Stranger," said she.	10
11	142	"The letters and the gold were delivered by a helmeted warrior".	10
11	156	"Do you know the warrior who brought you the letters and gold?" she demanded.	10
11	178	"Thank you!" "Tell me, Serpent," said Lara, "did the warrior steal the coins from you?" "No, no," blubbered Ost.	10
11	194	"Thus," said Thorn, "to make it seem he had not given the money to this warrior, or assassin as the case may be, he pretended it had been stolen from him.	10
11	197	"How is it that Ost gave you the coins, Warrior?" asked the Tatrix.	10
12	56	"I once wore the silver mask, Warrior," said the girl.	10
13	75	"This may be farewell, Warrior," said he.	10
13	83	"So be it, Warrior," he agreed.	10
14	8	Hideous though the death might seem to the silver masks of Tharna, they did not know that I was a tarnsman, and knew these birds, their power, their ferocity; that in my way I loved them; and that as a warrior I would not find a death by tarn ignoble.	10
14	70	"You confront a warrior".	10
14	103	I addressed myself to the giant tarn, as though he had been a warrior, a member of my caste.	10
14	155	What I would have given for a tarn saddle and the broad purple strap that fastens the warrior in the saddle! As soon as it felt my weight, the tarn cried again and with an explosion of its broad wings sprang into the air, climbing in dizzy circles.	10
15	180	"Warrior," she said, her head lifting piteously, "must you exact so terrible a vengeance on me?" I smiled to myself.	10
15	202	"Think, Warrior," she cried, "of your honor".	10
15	204	"Would you satisfy your vengeance at the price of slavery for your friends?" "No," I cried angrily, inwardly delighted, "for I am a warrior!" Her voice was exultant.	10
15	205	"Then, Warrior, you must bargain with me!" "Not with you!" I cried, attempting to sound dismayed.	10
15	210	"Very well, Warrior," she said.	10
16	9	As I passed over the pillar, a warrior removed his helmet, and signaled for me to bring the tarn down.	10
16	33	"All Tharna is yours, Warrior," cried Dorna the Proud, "if you but relinquish our noble Tatrix! The city weeps for her return! I fear there will be no more joy in Tharna until she sits again upon her golden throne!" I laughed.	10
16	35	"What are your terms, Warrior?" she demanded.	10
16	43	"Indeed, Warrior," said Dorna.	10
16	52	"Indeed, Warrior," said she, "for our Tatrix we would give you even the stones of our walls".	10
16	80	Thorn and the warriors were startled, and in this instant I leapt between their weapons, seized Thorn and a warrior, dashed them together, and threw them both, weapons clattering, to the marble flooring of the pillar.	10
16	82	The other warrior lunged at me with his sword and I side-stepped the stroke and seized the wrist of his sword arm.	10
16	85	Thorn had regained his feet and leaped on me from behind, and the other warrior a moment later.	10
16	96	"It's gone," said the uninjured warrior.	10
16	108	The warrior whose arm had been broken knelt on the marble flooring of the pillar, bent over, rocking back and forth, the injured arm held against his body.	10
16	117	"Warrior," said she, "if you were to remain long enough on this pillar you would see processions come to welcome me back to Tharna".	10
16	124	The uninjured warrior had now climbed to the saddle of the tarn, to whose ankle ring I lay helplessly chained.	10
17	54	"As you wish, Warrior," said Kron, and dropped the frightened Ost, roughly disengaging his chain from the creature's throat.	10
18	79	"Lead us, Warrior," said Andreas.	10
19	138	"I wish you well," he said, "—Warrior".	10
20	36	Using the Warrior's Pace, a slow jog that can be prolonged for hours, I left the Compound of the Mines.	10
20	46	I wondered too at her treachery, her strange hatred of me, for somehow it seemed not to fit well with the lonely girl on the ledge, who had stood quietly gazing at the field of talenders while a warrior had gorged himself on the kill of his tarn.	10
21	212	"Four—" "May I see the scabbard, Warrior?" he asked.	10
21	280	"Yes, Warrior," she said.	10
22	22	"Give me your sword, Warrior," said she, "and I will throw myself upon it".	10
22	24	"Ah, yes," she said, "a warrior is unwilling to have the blood of a woman on his sword".	10
22	71	"And yet, Warrior," she said, "you would not have kept me—you threatened to put me on the block and sell me to another".	10
22	77	"You are a strange warrior.	10
22	106	"Do you know, Warrior," she asked, "why I—now only a miserable slave—hated you so?" "No," I said.	10
22	110	"In these dreams I had been proud in my palace surrounded by my council and warriors and then, shattering the roof like glass, a great tarn descended, bearing a helmeted warrior.	10
23	69	"Of course, Warrior," she said, "there must be no tears—for I am Tatrix of Tharna and a Tatrix does not cry".	10
23	139	His assailant had apparently not been a warrior.	10
23	149	Even in his youth he had the blind loyalty of the warrior, a loyalty which I respected and which was perhaps no more blind than some I myself had felt.	10
23	152	The young warrior started in my arms.	10
23	155	The eyes of the warrior widened as they regarded us.	10
23	196	Largely, the streets were deserted, save that here and there lay a body, sometimes that of a warrior of Tharna, more often one of its gray-clad citizens.	10
24	130	At the head of that splendid, ragged procession five marched; Kron, chief of the rebels; Andreas, a poet; his woman, Linna of Tharna, unveiled; I, a warrior of a city devastated and cursed of the Priest-Kings; and a girl with golden hair, a girl who wore no mask, who had known both the whip and love...	10
24	155	When at last I stood unslain on the black cobblestones at the foot of the double rampart I knew that though Dorna the Proud might rule in Tharna, though it might be she who sat upon the golden throne of the city, that it was the word of a warrior that ruled on those ramparts above me.	10
24	156	"Tal, Warrior," said Thorn, removing his helmet.	10
24	157	"Tal, Warrior," I said.	10
24	199	I saw that it was the young warrior whose wound Lara and I had tended on the wall of Tharna.	10
24	200	"I believe this warrior!" he cried, pointing down at me.	10
24	205	"Your swords are pledged to your city, to its walls, to your people and your Tatrix! Serve her!" "I shall serve the true Tatrix of Tharna!" cried the young warrior.	10
24	220	Another warrior removed his helmet.	10
24	237	My arm about Lara, I walked through the barricade, and behind us came the young warrior, others of the defenders of the barricade, and Kron, Andreas, Linna and many of the rebels.	10
24	263	On the steps before the throne there stood a warrior, fully armed, who held in his hands the blue helmet of his city.	10
25	101	"Insolent beast!" she screamed at him, then she ordered the other warrior to slay the first.	10
25	102	"You no longer rule in Tharna," said the other warrior simply.	10
25	104	"Were you to stay and die at the foot of your throne we would follow you and die by your side," said the first warrior.	10
25	117	I suddenly knew the answer, that Thorn somehow had loved this cruel woman, that his warrior's heart had been turned to her though he had never looked upon her face, though she had never given him a smile or the touch of her hand.	10
25	153	Perhaps she would find herself confined within the walls of some warrior's Pleasure Gardens, to be dressed in silk of his choosing, to have bells locked on her ankles and to know no will other than his; perhaps she would be purchased by the master of a Paga Tavern, or even of a lowly Kal-da shop, to...	10
26	91	"And should I ever again be tempted to be proud or cruel," she said, a smile in her voice, "I shall merely remind myself that I was once sold for fifty silver tarn disks—and that a warrior once purchased me for only a scabbard and a helmet".	10
26	96	"And I wish you well, Warrior," said the girl.	10
26	99	"And if the time should come, Warrior, when you should desire a slave girl, some girl to wear your silk and your collar, your brand if you wish—remember Lara, who is Tatrix of Tharna".	10
26	107	But I go to the Sardar for more than truth; foremost in my brain there burns, like an imperative of steel, the cry for blood-vengeance, mine by sword-right, mine by the affinities of blood and caste and city, mine for I am one pledged to avenge a vanished people, fallen walls and towers, a city frow...	10
26	119	But why would Priest-Kings desire Tarl Cabot to come to their mountains? He is nothing to them, nothing to any man; he is only a warrior, a man with no city to call his own, thus an outlaw.	10
26	128	I was Tarl Cabot, Warrior of Ko-ro-ba.	10

Chapter #	Sentence #	Quote	Confidence
7	66	I am a warrior of Ko-ro-ba and I issue the challenge of a warrior to the Priest-Kings of Gor! Let us do battle! Let us make war!" My voice echoed for a long time in the vast chamber, but I received no response to my challenge.	10
1	105	I have been unable to learn the fate of my father, my friends, my warrior companions, and my beloved Talena, she who was the daughter of Marlenus, who had once been Ubar of Ar—my sweet, fierce, wild, gentle, savage, beautiful love, she who is my Free Companion, my Talena, forever the Ubara of...	10
4	157	For some reason I laughed and my laugh was the laugh of a warrior of Gor, full and mighty, unafraid, and it roared in the dark and lonely Hall of Priest-Kings.	10
6	14	Vika seared this meat, as thick as the forearm of a warrior, on a small iron grill over a kindling of charcoal cylinders, so that the thin margin of the outside was black, crisp and flaky and sealed within by the touch of the fire was the blood-rich flesh, hot and fat with juice.	10
6	36	The Older Tarl, who had been my mentor in arms years ago in Ko-ro-ba, had once told me the story of a free woman, desperately in love with a warrior, who, in the presence of her family was entertaining him, and whose wrists, unconsciously, had assumed the position of a slave.	10
6	39	It seems she thereafter, because of her embarrassment, would never see the warrior and he, at last, impatient and desiring her, carried her off as a slave girl, and returned to the city months later with her as his Free Companion.	10
6	78	Had I now become so much the Gorean warrior that I could disregard the feelings of a fellow creature, in particular those of a girl, who must be protected and cared for? Could it be that I had, as the codes of my caste recommended, not even considered her, but merely regarded her as a rightless anim...	10
6	92	In one of the chests against the wall I had found, among the garments of various other castes, a warrior's tunic.	10
7	14	My business was with the dread denizens of these dim passageways which had so inspired her terror; my business was not that of the comforter or friend, but that of the warrior.	10
7	43	It is the common property of the Administrator of Ar, a herdsman beside the Vosk, a peasant from Tor, a scribe from Thentis, a metal worker from Tharna, a physician from Cos, a pirate from Port Kar, a warrior from Ko-ro-ba.	10
7	81	I have the patience of a warrior and I waited for a long time.	10
7	121	I hummed a warrior's tune, for somehow I was happy.	10
9	133	"Someday," I said, "you will love—but I do not think it will be a warrior of Ko-ro-ba".	10
16	123	Inwardly I cursed the Mul-Torch that had brought tears to the eyes of a Warrior of Ko-ro-ba.	10
19	65	Not only would I not do this because of my affection for Misk but even if I intended to kill him I surely would not have done so in this manner, for it is not the way a trained warrior kills.	10
20	204	Also of course a Free Companionship might be refused, in all Gorean right, by the girl, and thus a warrior can hardly be blamed, after risking his life, for not wanting to risk losing the precious prize which he has just, at great peril to himself, succeeded in winning.	10
22	165	The primary advantage I supposed was that it allowed the Gorean warrior to work close to his man.	10
26	95	"Look, Warrior of Ko-ro-ba," she said, "a woman of High Caste of the lofty city of Treve kneels before you and begs of you that you will not leave her here".	10
27	37	There was Nest Trust between us and accordingly, as a warrior and a man, I stood ready to give my life for him.	10
34	109	I was pleased that she would go to Ar, where she, though a woman, might learn the craft of medicine under masters appointed by Kazrak, where she might found a new life for herself far from warlike, plundering Treve, where she might work as befitted the daughter of a skilled, courageous father, where...	10
34	125	For some unaccountable reason tears had formed in my own eyes, though I was a Warrior.	10
34	129	"But," said the Older Tarl, "you are a Warrior".	10
34	130	"Yes," I said, "I am a Warrior".	10
34	132	It was an old Warrior saying.	10
34	140	"I have before me the work of a Warrior".	10
34	156	Perhaps she, my Free Companion, even now lay chained in one of the blue and yellow slave wagons, or served paga in a tavern or was a belled adornment to some warrior's Pleasure Gardens.	10
35	149	I could see, climbing the hill towards us, a warrior.	10
35	165	I stopped only when I reached the side of the warrior.	10

Book 4. (81 results) Nomads of Gor

Chapter #	Sentence #	Quote	Confidence
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.	10
10	450	The warrior of the Wagon Peoples does not use the short sword, probably because such a weapon could not be optimally used from the saddle of the kaiila; the saber, incidentally, which would be somewhat more effective from kaiilaback, is almost unknown on Gor; its role, I gather, is more than fulfill...	10
16	161	The other warrior, a strong, gaunt man, scarred across the left cheekbone, with shrewd, dark eyes, said nothing, but watched us, considering us, as a warrior considers an enemy.	10
2	1	I Make the Acquaintance of the Wagon Peoples As I walked I asked myself why I did so—why I, Tarl Cabot—once of Earth, later a warrior of the Gorean city of Ko-ro-ba, the Towers of the Morning, had come here.	10
2	31	It is worthy of a warrior of the caste of Warriors, a swordsman of the high city of Ko-ro-ba, the Towers of the Morning.	10
2	83	For example, every male of the Wagon Peoples is expected to be a warrior, to be able to ride, to be able to hunt, to care for the bosk, and so on.	10
3	8	"Aieee!" cried the warrior of the Kataii.	10
3	33	But to such a question, as a warrior of Ko-ro-ba, I could not but respond.	10
3	71	They conferred again for a moment and then the warrior of the Kataii approached, a lithe, strong proud man, one in whose eyes I could read that he had never lost his saddle, nor turned from a foe.	10
3	76	The warrior stood in the stirrups, shading his eyes.	10
3	85	Last to approach me was the warrior of the Paravaci, with his hood and cape of white fur, and the glistening broad necklace of precious stones encircling his throat.	10
3	134	"Ho!" I heard, and spun to see the black lance fall and scarcely had it moved but it was seized in the fist of the scarred Tuchuk warrior.	10
4	1	The Outcome of Spear Gambling The Tuchuk warrior lifted the lance in triumph, in the same instant slipping his fist into the retention knot and kicking the roweled heels of his boots into the silken flanks of his mount, the animal springing towards me and the rider in the same movement, as if one wi...	10
4	36	Slowly, singing in a guttural chant, a Tuchuk warrior song, he began to swing the bola.	10
4	52	To the head came the flashing bola moving in its hideous, swift revolution almost invisible in the air and I, instead of lowering my head or throwing myself to the ground, met instead the flying weighted leather with the blade of a Koroban short sword, with the edge that would divide silk dropped up...	10
4	80	The warrior grinned and put his hands over mine so that our hands together held the dirt and the grass, and were together clasped on it.	10
4	81	"Yes," said the warrior, "come in peace to the Land of the Wagon Peoples".	10
5	1	The Prisoner I followed the warrior Kamchak into the encampment of Tuchuks.	10
5	16	The Tuchuk, incidentally, like others of the Wagon Peoples, prays only when mounted, only when in the saddle and with weapons at hand; he prays to the sky not as a slave to a master, nor a servant to a god, but as a warrior to a Ubar; the women of the Wagon Peoples, it might be mentioned, are not pe...	10
5	80	"No fool," said Kamchak, "but Tarl Cabot, a warrior, one who has held in his hands with me grass and earth".	10
7	256	Then to a warrior nearby, he said, "Bring meat".	10
7	257	The warrior leapt from the dais and, in a few moments, returned with a handful of roasted bosk meat.	10
8	69	The warrior who then rode with Conrad thundered down the lane in the turf.	10
8	83	It is not an easy transition to make, that from a bright, lovely young secretary in a pleasant, fluorescently lit, air-conditioned office on Madison Avenue in New York City—to a slave girl in the wagon of a Tuchuk warrior.	10
8	133	The Gorean girl is, even if free, accustomed to slavery; she will perhaps own one or more slaves herself; she knows that she is weaker than men and what this can mean; she knows that cities fall and caravans are plundered; she knows she might even, by a sufficiently bold warrior, be captured in her ...	10
8	212	In the hour that followed I rejoiced that I had spent much of the last several months, when not riding with Kamchak in the care of his bosk, in the pleasant and, to a warrior, satisfying activity of learning Tuchuk weaponry, both of the hunt and war.	10
8	262	Kamchak raced his kaiila over to the edge of the crowd, entering into swift negotiation with a warrior, one whose wagon followed ours in the march of the Tuchuks.	10
8	263	Indeed, it had been from that warrior that Kamchak had rented the girls who had dragged Elizabeth Cardwell about the wagons, teaching her Gorean with thong and switch.	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.	10
8	334	A Tuchuk warrior slashed apart the thongs with his quiva and Tuka, only too pleased to be free of the circle, leaped up and ran quickly to the side of her master.	10
9	1	Aphris of Turia There was little doubt that I, in the worn, red tunic of a warrior, and Kamchak, in the black leather of the Tuchuks, seemed somewhat out of place at the banquet of Saphrar, merchant of Turia.	10
9	56	He sat as a warrior, though in robes of silk.	10
9	58	He was said to be a great warrior, indeed, to be champion of Turia.	10
10	125	Kamchak! Free a slave! And, I told myself, even if I myself owned Elizabeth, and not Kamchak, I could not free her—for what would it be to free her? If she approached Turia she would fall slave to the first patrol that leashed and hooded her; if she tried to stay among the wagons, some young ...	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
10	278	As I knew, not just any girl, any more than just any warrior, could participate in the games of Love War.	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.	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.	10
10	405	It would indeed be unpleasant if one suddenly, unexpectedly, found oneself facing a superb, famed warrior, say, a Kamras of Turia.	10
10	431	He was indeed an impressive warrior.	10
10	445	Fortunately, however, the warrior of the Wagon Peoples could withdraw from the combat any time before his name had actually been officially entered in the lists of the games.	10
10	454	The saber, incidentally, is not only unpopular among the Wagon Peoples but among the warriors of Gor generally; it is regarded as being too long and clumsy a weapon for the close, sharp combat so dear to the heart of the warrior of the cities; further it is not of much use from the saddle of a tarn ...	10
10	511	Kamras was, after all, a warrior, and not a butcher.	10
11	122	"First stake!" he called out to a warrior, jerking his thumb at the stumbling, gasping Aphris.	10
11	123	The warrior laughed.	10
11	134	I wondered how many of the girls in her New York office could have run as she beside the stirrup of a Tuchuk warrior.	10
11	362	"I think," I said, "that you have won this night but I warn you that the girl from Turia will think again of the quiva and the heart of a Tuchuk warrior".	10
12	28	Once he might have been a great man and warrior but now, somnolent and fat, he thought of little save the contents of a golden kanda box.	10
12	394	Now, in the background, scarcely to be seen, was the figure of a warrior in scarlet cape.	10
12	395	He, too, in his way, though hardly seeming to move, approached, and it seemed that wherever the girl might flee there was found the warrior.	10
12	401	She seemed to plead with the warrior but he did not move.	10
12	404	The warrior then turned from her and held out one hand.	10
12	417	She circled the warrior like a captive moon to his imprisoning scarlet sun, always at the length of the chain.	10
12	421	Certain of these phases are very slow, in which there is almost no movement, save perhaps the turning of a head or the movement of a hand; others are defiant and swift; some are graceful and pleading; some stately, some simple; some proud, some piteous; but each time, as the common thread, she is dr...	10
12	484	She was of Earth and knew not the flames which her words might have evoked in the breast of a Gorean warrior—nor did she understand herself truly nor the relation in which she, slave girl, stood to a free man to whom she had been for the hour given—I could not tell her that another war...	10
13	132	Then, to my delight, Kamchak, borrowing two kaiila, which he seemed to have no difficulty doing—from a Tuchuk warrior I had not even seen before—rode with me to the Omen Valley.	10
14	3	Each warrior of the Wagon Peoples, and that means each able-bodied man, is a member of an Or, or a Ten; each ten is a member of an Orlu, or Hundred; each Orlu is a member of an Oralu, a Thousand.	10
14	86	"He was once a great warrior," he said.	10
16	136	Beside him, on each side, cross-legged, sat a warrior.	10
16	137	The warrior on his right wore a robe, much as one might when emerging from the baths.	10
16	142	On the left of Saphrar there sat another warrior, in the leather of a tarnsman, save that he wore a jeweled belt, and about his neck, set with diamonds, there hung a worn tarn disk from the city of Ar.	10
16	188	I followed them and in combat slew the warrior, obtaining my scar.	10
16	281	"Let me slay him as befits a warrior," he said.	10
19	117	After an instant she realized that she could not, that she had been bound by a warrior.	10
21	29	My heart felt grateful to the stern, fierce warrior, though he had been in the past days harsh and strange, half drunk with hatred for Turia.	10
21	69	I had just picked up the last stone and tucked it back in my pouch and was about to rise from my knees when I found myself staring at the high, heavy sandals, almost boots, of a warrior.	10
21	143	"Poor warrior," said she, her eyes smiling over the veil, "you do not even have enough to pay for the use of a skilled slave girl".	10
24	52	Each warrior had at his disposal five crossbows and four Turian slaves, for winding and loading the bows.	10
24	149	"Kamchak gave her to a warrior," he said.	10
25	25	Harold had said that Elizabeth Cardwell had been given by Kamchak to a warrior.	10
25	26	He had not said which warrior.	10
25	304	What then would be her fate? Moreover, I reminded myself of my work, and that a warrior cannot well encumber himself with a woman, particularly not a free woman.	10
25	457	"The codes of the warrior of Gor?" "Do not," I said.	10
26	162	He wore the scarlet of a warrior.	10
26	172	"I am a warrior," said the young man proudly.	10
26	176	"I am a warrior and I know my codes".	10
26	306	"Be strong, Warrior of Ko-ro-ba," said Kamchak, kindly.	10
26	560	Again we laughed and, suddenly, we urged the kaiila forward in great bounding strides, eager to reach the wagons, each of us, for waiting in these wagons were three girls, desirable, marvelous, ours, Hereena, she who had been of the First Wagon, the slave of Harold, her master; Aphris of Turia, almo...	10
27	12	The girls of the Wagon Peoples, of course, who had been enslaved, were freed; the others, however, save for some of Ko-ro-ba on whose behalf I spoke, would change their perfumed silks and their warmed, scented baths for the hardships of the trek, the care of bosk, and the arms of warrior masters.	10
27	98	"Foolish warrior," she chided, "I am only the daughter of a baker".	10
28	68	"Good fortune attend you, Tarl Cabot, Commander of a Thousand Tuchuks, Warrior of Ko-ro-ba!" I lifted my hand to them and then drew on the one-strap and the wings of the great tarn began to strike the resistant air and the Tuchuks on all sides fell back stumbling in the dust and the driven wind smot...	10

Book 5. (93 results) Assassin of Gor

Chapter #	Sentence #	Quote	Confidence
1	35	There were three who stood near the pyre; one wore the brown robes of the Administrator of a City, the humblest robes in the city, and was hooded; another wore the blue of the Caste of Scribes, a small man, almost tiny, bent now with pain and grief; the last was a very large man, broad of back and s...	10
4	71	"No," he had said, "other than the fact that he was a warrior from the allied city of Thentis, a poor Warrior".	10
12	81	Kazrak, who had been Administrator of the City for several years, had been popular but his straightforward attention, after he had put aside the Red of the Warrior and donned the Brown of the Administrator, to numerous and complex civil and economic matters, such as reform of the courts and laws and...	10
18	493	His resemblance to a certain Koroban Warrior, perhaps Tarl Cabot, would make it seem clear, in the darkness of the night, that the knife had been intended for that Warrior, and a convenient clue, a patch of green, would lead to Ar, and doubtless then to the House of Cernus".	10
19	51	I heard two girls laugh and I felt my ankles seized and held while small hands thrust on my back, taking me by surprise and throwing me heavily forward; I struck my shoulder on the back of the cart and the booted foot of a Warrior thrust me from the cart and I fell to my knees on the stones; when I ...	10
1	32	He was a large man, Kuurus noted, in the leather of a Warrior.	10
1	36	Kuurus saw the torch lit and then, with a cry of pain, thrown by the Warrior onto the small mountain of oiled wood.	10
1	45	Other men sought in the ashes for what might be found of the Warrior.	10
1	47	Kuurus knew that such an urn would be decorated, probably, since the man had been a Warrior, with scenes of the hunt and war.	10
1	48	The urn was given to him who wore the robes of the Administrator of the City, who took it and slowly, on foot, withdrew toward Ko-ro-ba, followed by the large blond Warrior and the small Scribe.	10
1	97	"Who is it," asked Kuurus, "that was slain? Who is it that I am to avenge?" "A Warrior," said the man.	10
2	3	Not for many years had the black tunic of the Assassins been seen within the walls of Ar, not since the siege of that city in 10,110 from its founding, in the days of Marlenus, who had been Ubar; of Pa-Kur, who had been Master of the Assassins; and of the Koroban Warrior, in the songs called Tarl of...	10
2	7	Pa-Kur's horde had been defeated by an alliance of free cities, led by Ko-ro-ba and Thentis, under the command of Matthew Cabot of Ko-ro-ba, the father of Tarl of Bristol, and Kazrak of Port Kar, sword brother of the same Warrior.	10
2	147	The first Warrior lunged toward the Assassin but in the darkness of the side of the room, in the dim light of the tharlarion lamps, it was difficult to tell what happened.	10
3	14	As I could I put these thoughts from my mind, but I could not fully escape them, for among them was the memory of a girl, she, Talena, the daughter of the Ubar of Ubars, Marlenus, who so many years before had been the Free Companion of a simple Warrior of Ko-ro-ba, he who had been torn from her at t...	10
3	16	The Warrior of Ko-ro-ba had never found her.	10
3	22	The man who called out wore a robe of checkered red and yellow squares, and the game board, of similar squares, with ten ranks and ten files, giving a hundred squares, hung over his back; slung over his left shoulder, as a warrior wears a sword, was a leather bag containing the pieces, twenty to a s...	10
3	40	I had once known a Warrior in Ko-ro-ba, a dull, watery-eyed fellow, who boasted of having beaten Quintus of Tor in a paga tavern in Thentis.	10
4	150	There were few girls with her wind and stamina, her strength and vitality, few who could run at the stirrup of a Warrior as well as she.	10
5	509	Our eyes told one another, even in the joy of our meeting, that we, none of us, knew the whereabouts of Talena, once the companion, though she the daughter of a Ubar, of a simple Warrior of Ko-ro-ba.	10
5	527	"After all," said Elizabeth, "why should it be only slave girls who are comfortable and can move freely?" "Aren't you slave?" asked one of the men nearby, a Warrior, looking closely.	10
5	617	I had decided to wait until the Fourth Passage Hand, that following En'Var, and then take tarn for Ar, where I would pose as a mercenary tarnsman seeking employment in the House of Cernus, but when the Warrior from Thentis, who resembled me, was slain early in En'Var, I decided to go to Ar in the gu...	10
5	619	Further, I did have the business of vengeance to attend to, for there was a Warrior from Thentis who had died on a Koroban bridge, whose blood surely required the justice of the sword.	10
5	620	It was not simply that Thentis was an ally of Ko-ro-ba, but also that this Warrior had been, it seemed, slain in my stead, and that thus his life had been given for mine, and was thus mine to avenge.	10
8	142	I was troubled for a moment, but it passed, recalling that the Warrior who had been slain presumably in my stead on the bridge in the vicinity of the Cylinder of Warriors in Ko-ro-ba had been of Thentis.	10
12	64	I wore a worn, red tunic, that of a Warrior.	10
13	199	"I see you now wear the red of the Warrior," said he, "rather than the black of the Assassin".	10
13	232	I expect the fact that I walked as a Warrior, a sword at my side, perhaps dissuaded individuals who might otherwise have attempted to cut a purse or threaten a throat were they not rewarded for leniency.	10
13	233	There are few on Gor who will take their lives into their hands by confronting a Gorean Warrior.	10
14	57	This was prior to the slaying of the Warrior of Thentis, who resembled me, which had given me independent reason for coming to Ar, and in the guise of an Assassin.	10
14	86	"Also," I said, "I would like to find out who slew the Warrior from Thentis, he who died on the high bridge in Ko-ro-ba near the Cylinder of Warriors".	10
15	17	The belt dance is performed with a Warrior.	10
15	25	The dance receives its name from the fact that the girl's head is not supposed to rise above the Warrior's belt, but only purists concern themselves with such niceties; wherever the dance is performed, however, it is imperative that the girl never rise to her feet.	10
15	26	The music now became a moan of surrender, and the girl was on her knees, her head down, her hands on the ankle of the Warrior, his sandal lost in the unbound darkness of her hair, her lips to his foot.	10
15	29	In the next phases of the dance the girl knows herself the Warrior's, and endeavors to please him, but he is difficult to move, and her efforts, with the music, become ever more frenzied and desperate.	10
15	57	Under the torchlight Phyllis Robertson was now on her knees, the Warrior at her side, holding her behind the small of the back.	10
15	58	Her head went farther back, as her hands moved on the arms of the Warrior, as though once to press him away, and then again to draw him closer, and her head then touched the furs, her body a cruel, helpless bow in his hands, and then, her head down, it seemed she struggled and her body straightened ...	10
15	60	Then, after this instant of silence under the torches, the music struck the final note, with a mighty and jarring clash of cymbals, and the Warrior had lowered her to the furs and her lips, arms about his neck, sought his with eagerness.	10
16	6	Further, because of his services to the state, including the sponsorship of games and races, Cernus was, upon the petition of Saphronicus, Captain of the Taurentians, invested in the scarlet of the Warrior, thus honoring him with High Caste.	10
16	13	He had doubtless hired masters of arms because he wished to acquire skill in weapons, but I think, too, he may, even for years, have had in mind his investiture as Warrior.	10
16	14	It perhaps need only be added that now being a Warrior, and thus of High Caste, he was now eligible for a seat on the High Council of the city, and even for the throne itself, whether it be that of Administrator or Ubar.	10
16	32	It was also the day that, before the High Council and the Administrator, Cernus, of the House of Cernus, accepted the red of the Warrior from the hands of Saphronicus, Captain of the Taurentians.	10
16	224	Now, of course, as I usually did when I was outside the house, I wore the red of the Warrior.	10
17	35	"Greetings," said she, "Warrior".	10
17	48	One was a Warrior, the other a handsome young Tarn Keeper.	10
17	49	"Kajuralia," said the Warrior to me, wryly.	10
17	92	I opened the door and, not to my surprise, discovered that the Warrior and Tarn Keeper, preventing the girls from escaping, and having freed themselves in the moment of surprise and tumult in which I had seized the long-legged girl, had, probably one by one, while the other girls had looked on miser...	10
17	97	"Kajuralia!" said the Warrior, cheerfully, getting to his feet, after checking the knots that bound the wrists of the last girl on the ropes.	10
17	120	I heard one of the girls bound in the line whisper to the Warrior, and another to the Tarn Keeper, "Do not let me escape, Master".	10
17	122	The Warrior, the Tarn Keeper and I remained the greater part of the day with the girls of the Street of Pots.	10
17	127	The Warrior, followed by the Tarn Keeper, was moving down the line of bound girls, lifting their heads, taking their final wages for the sport, saying "Kajuralia," to each and moving to the next.	10
17	129	"Kajuralia," I said to her gently, and turned, and with the Warrior and the Tarn Keeper, arm in arm, with garlands of talenders, which had been several times replaced, woven about our necks, left the Street of Pots.	10
17	133	"Kajuralia, Warrior!" "Kajuralia!" I responded, well satisfied with the day's sport.	10
17	160	Once in a paga tavern I heard a man, whom I recognized to be one of the guards from the iron pens, though now in the tunic of a Leather Worker, declaring that the city needed for its Administrator not a Builder but a Warrior, that law would again prevail.	10
17	161	"But what Warrior?" inquired a fellow at the table, a Silversmith.	10
17	162	"Cernus, of the House of Cernus," said the disguised guard, "is a Warrior".	10
17	260	I regretted only that I had not yet learned who it was that had slain the Warrior from Thentis.	10
18	25	"It was with a knife such as this," I said, "that you slew a Warrior of Thentis on a bridge in Ko-ro-ba, in En'Var, near the tower of Warriors".	10
18	488	"No," said Cernus, "the Warrior Sandros of Thentis was slain in Ko-ro-ba".	10
18	512	"Do not mock me," said he, "Warrior".	10
19	52	Then another Warrior, with his two hands, thrust my hooded head to the sandal of one of my unseen tormentors; I heard her laugh; then my head was jerked up and thrust down again, to the sandal of another; I heard her laugh.	10
19	67	There is another set of interesting mosaics, each portraying a chained beauty, identified as being of a given city, kneeling before a Warrior, identified as being of Ar.	10
19	141	In a rather brief amount of time Verbina was auctioned to a young Warrior for seven gold pieces.	10
19	146	Slave girls who escape masters or some free women, who will not accept the matches arranged by their parents, or reject the culture of Gor, occasionally flee to these forests and live together in bands, building shelters, hunting their food, and hating men; there are occasional clashes between these...	10
19	353	In the crowd men cried out with pleasure; I heard even gasps from women, perhaps amazingly, startled that their sex was capable of such beauty; the eyes of some of the women shone with ill-concealed admiration and excitement; I could mark the quickness of their breath in their veils; the eyes of oth...	10
20	171	A Warrior in the hire of Cernus struck me across the mouth.	10
20	250	Hup was now backing around ogling the slave girls, and then he fell over on his back, tripped by a Warrior.	10
21	11	"Remove my manacles," said I, "and blade or no, let me give response as might a Warrior".	10
21	157	"They are waiting for you," said Ho-Tu, grinning, "Warrior".	10
21	226	He who is a Singer must sing; he who weaves the beautiful rugs of Ar or Tor must weave; the Physician must heal; the Builder build; the Merchant buy and sell; and the Warrior must fight.	10
21	252	The man turned and attacked and I laughed suddenly with the thrill of the steel, the flashing ring of work upon the Warrior's anvil.	10
