This intelligence having been brought to the attention of Lord Temmu and Lord Okimoto, a daimyo of Lord Temmu, it had been determined that she was to be cast from the parapet at a time corresponding to that at which her observed message had been delivered. Tyrtaios, however, presumably at the behest of an angered Lord Yamada, had extracted her from the holding on tarnback before this sentence could be emplaced. She had been ignorant that her work had been discovered, and thought herself recalled to the palace either for her protection or for a new, different assignment. In actuality, Lord Yamada, fearing his plans had been jeopardized by her clumsiness, had had her recalled not for her protection or for a new employment, suitable to her beauty and intelligence, but because he wished to visit his disappointment and displeasure upon her, in a most grievous manner, meting out to her a lengthy and painful death. Tajima, in the garden, had tried to make this clear to her, but he had failed to convince her of her danger. Sent to the garden to pry information from a manipulable male, one likely to be eager to please so beautiful a woman, she had returned, to her chagrin, empty handed to the supper, having succeeded in little more than having found herself regaled with what she viewed as absurdities and ravings. It may also be recalled that Lord Yamada, before Tajima and Pertinax departed for their rendezvous with Ichiro, offered each a woman, who might be kept as their own, and, also, that Tajima, to my surprise, and presumably to that of Lord Yamada, expressed a concern as to the comfort of slaves, on what would be likely to be a cold flight north. - (Rebels of Gor, Chapter )
