|---|---|---|
| 8 | 13 | Indeed, it was known that some free women actually envied their lightly clad sisters in bondage, free, though wearing a collar, to come and go much as they pleased, to feel the wind on the high bridges, the arms of a master who celebrated their beauty and claimed them as his own. |
| 8 | 14 | I remembered that in Tharna, ruled by its Tatrix, there would be few, if any, female slaves. |
| 8 | 15 | Whether or not there were male slaves I could not well judge, for the collars would have been hidden by the gray robes. |
| 8 | 16 | There is no distinctive garment for a male slave on Gor, since, as it is said, it is not well for them to discover how numerous they are. |
| 8 | 17 | The purpose, incidentally, of the brief garment of the female slave is not simply to mark out the girl in bondage but, in exposing her charms, to make her, rather than her free sister, the favored object of raids on the part of roving tarnsmen. |
| 8 | 18 | Whereas there is status in the capture of a free woman, there is less risk in the capture of a slave; the pursuit is never pressed as determinedly in their cases, and one does not have to imperil one's life for a girl who might, once the Robes of Concealment have been cast off, turn out to have the face of an urt and the temper of a sleen. |
| 8 | 19 | Perhaps I was most startled on the silent streets of Tharna by the free women. |
