If Lord Yamada was dead, it seemed the contest, if it existed, betwixt wagering priest-kings and Kurii had been decided. I knew not what this might bode for the future of Gor. Indeed, I was not clear on which side either force had placed its wager. Did priest-kings favor Lord Temmu or Lord Yamada? Which, if either, was favored by Kurii? Surely both Kurii, or some Kurii, and priest-kings, or some priest-kings, had collaborated in the readying of, and the flight of, the iron dragon. It seemed Kurii, or some Kurii, might have favored Lord Temmu, as I had been brought within his compass on a northern beach long ago, in a ship departed from a steel world. But was this in virtue of an agreement between priest-kings and Kurii? Tiny bits of evidence suggested one interpretation, and tiny bits of evidence suggested another. Perhaps, for all I knew, there was no wager, only the suspicion of, or the rumor of, a wager. - (Rebels of Gor, Chapter )
