14 76 Misk told me, and I believe him, that Muls had occasionally slain one another for a handful of salt.
 6
14 106 Misk and I got on rather well together after a few small initial frictions, particularly having to do with the salt ration and the number of times a day the washing-booth was to be used.
 6
14 112 At last, feeling that I perhaps owed something to Misk's acceptance of me in his chamber, I suggested a compromise at five, and, for an extra salt packet, six on alternate days.
 6
14 113 At last Misk threw in two extra salt packets a day and I agreed to six washings.

30 83 To this generous proposal he added, sensing it might not in itself be irresistible, a tub of salt per man and two female Muls, to be provided after the defeat of Misk's forces, when presumably there would be captured females to distribute to the victors.

6 20 It had been expected, I gathered, that I would sit at one of the two long side tables, and perhaps even below the bowls of red and yellow salt which divided these tables.
 6
6 125 The slave who had won at hook knife had turned white, sitting far below the salt.
 6
12 78 Marlenus, because he had lost the Home Stone and because the men of Ar feared him and his ambitions, had been publicly denied bread, salt and fire, exiled from the city and forbidden to return on pain of death.
 6
13 182 "When he was publicly refused bread, salt and fire on the height of the central cylinder, when he was exiled from Ar, not to return on pain of death, do you know what he said?" "No," I said, "I do not".
 6
16 5 This was hailed as generosity on his part by those of Ar, who were familiar with and had experienced to their sorrow, particularly since the deposition of Kazrak, the effect of a number of monopolies, in particular those in salt and tharlarion oil.

13 19 If one sat between the salt and the high seat, one sat "above" the salt; if one sat between the salt and the entrance to the hall, one sat "below" the salt.
 6
13 21 Similarly, at the tables parallel to the high-seat table, smaller tables flanking the long fire on both sides, the tables nearest the high seat counted as being above the salt, those farthest away being below the salt.
 6
13 24 Thus, it was not the case that one at a long side table, who was above the salt, would be farther away from the high seat than one at one of the center tables, who was "below" the salt.
 6
13 25 In Ivar Forkbeard's hall, incidentally, the salt distinctions were not drawn; in his hall, all being comrades in arms, all were "above the salt".

13 17 salt, in its bowls on the tables, divided men into rankings.

13 18 Those sitting above the salt were accorded greater prestige than those sitting below it.
 6
13 20 At the high-seat table, that at which the high seat sat, all counted as being "above the salt".
 6
13 22 The division was made approximately at the third of the hall closest to the high seat, but could shift, depending on the numbers of those in attendance worthy to be above the salt.
 6
13 23 The line, so to speak, imaginary to be sure, but definitely felt as a social reality, dividing those above from those below the salt, was uniformly "drawn" across the width of the hall.

 6
13 66 A lesser protection and control of the salt, though a not unformidable one, lies in the policing of the desert by the salt Ubar, or the Guard of the Dunes.
 6
13 67 The support of the kasbah of the salt Ubar comes from fees supplied by high salt merchants, the measure of which fees, of course, they include in their wholesale pricings to lesser distributors.
 6
13 71 Some caravans, of course, journey through from the distant points to the salt districts, accepting the danger and inconvenience of trekking the dune country, but thereby avoiding the higher charges of picking up salt from the storehouses in the local oases.
 6
13 73 The Guard of the Dunes, however, does not obtain the title of the salt Ubar by virtue of his complacent magistracy of the salt districts, subservient to the Tahari merchants.

14 202 It was generally dried fruit and bread, and a bit of salt, to compensate for the salt loss during the day's march, consequent on perspiration.
 6
15 5 Similarly, the heavy cylinders of salt, mined and molded at Klima, are carried on the backs of salt slaves from storage areas at Klima to storage areas in the desert, whence they are tallied, sold and distributed to caravans.
 6
15 12 In Gor's geologic past it seems that the salt districts, like scattered puddles of crystalline residue, are what remains of what was once an inland salt sea or several such.

15 16 In the salt districts salt is found either in solid form or in solution.
 6
15 29 In the separate-pipe system, two pipes, separated by several yards, are used, fresh water being forced through one, the salt water solution, the salt being dissolved in the fresh water, rising through the other.
 6
15 44 The salt in the normal Tahari fresh water, incidentally, is not without its value, for, when drunk, it helps to some extent, though it is not in itself sufficient, to prevent salt loss in animals and men through sweating.

13 9 The salt, working its way into the leather wrappings, found its way to the feet.
 6
13 56 "That of the salt Ubar?" I asked.
 6
13 58 I had heard of the salt Ubar, or the Guard of the Dunes.
 6
13 60 Probably, other than his own men, only some few hundred know of it, primarily merchants high in the salt trade, and few of them would know its exact location.
 6
13 63 salt is a trading commodity par excellence.
 6
13 64 There are areas on Gor where salt serves as a currency, being weighed and exchanged much as precious metals.
 6
13 69 For example, caravans between Red Rock, and certain other oases, and the salt districts, will travel under an escort of the Guard of the Dunes.
 6
13 70 Many salt caravans, incidentally, travel only between the districts and the local oases, while others travel between the local oases and the distant points, often culminating with Kasra or Tor.
 6
13 74 There are those who say, and I do not doubt it true, that it is he, and not the merchants, who controls the salt of the Tahari.
 6
13 75 Nominally a sheriff of the Tahari merchants, he, ensconced in his kasbah, first among fierce warriors, elusive and unscrupulous, possesses a stranglehold on the salt of the Tahari, the vital commerce being ruled and regulated as he wills.
 6
13 91 "What is the name of the salt Ubar?" I asked Hassan.
 6
13 96 I, and Hassan, entered the kasbah of the Guard of the Dunes, the salt Ubar, him whose name was Abdul.
 6
13 97 * * * * Opulent were the halls and lofty chambers of the kasbah of Abdul, the Guard of the Dunes, he known as the salt Ubar of the Tahari.
 6
13 306 * * * * We feasted late, and were much pleased by the beauties of the salt Ubar.
 6
13 309 Hours before, Alyena had been dismissed from the audience chamber of the Guard of the Dunes, the salt Ubar.
 6
13 315 "I had not known you were the salt Ubar," said I.
 6
13 319 "Their allegiance is to no tribe, but to the protection of the salt.
 6
13 324 "Few know the men of the salt Ubar," said he.
 6
13 340 The leader, the salt Ubar, lifted his finger and the man subsided, his eyes blazing.
 6
13 341 "There is another here I know," I said, nodding toward a small fellow, sitting beside the salt Ubar, "though he is now more richly robed than when last I saw him".
 6
13 342 "He is my eyes and ears in Tor," said the salt Ubar.
 6
13 350 As now seemed clear to me, the message must have referred to Abdul, the salt Ubar.
 6
13 353 In the historic sense, the planetary sense, there would have been only one likely "Abdul" in the Tahari at this time, the potent, powerful, dreaded Guard of the Dunes, the salt Ubar.
 6
13 355 Neither Samos nor myself, however, though we had heard of the salt Ubar, had known his name.
 6
13 359 I might have behaved differently in the Tahari had I earlier known the name of the salt Ubar.
 6
13 363 "We have other plans for our friend," said the salt Ubar.
 6
13 365 "Have you long been known as Abdul?" I asked the salt Ubar.
 6
13 371 Only you are less wise than I, for you do not serve upon that side which will taste the salt of victory".
 6
13 451 I gathered that the lovely Vella, the former Miss Elizabeth Cardwell, though not of the Tahari, and only of Earth, must indeed be a high slave in the kasbah of Abdul, the salt Ubar.
 6
13 491 We were turned about and taken from the audience hall of the Guard of the Dunes, Abdul, the salt Ubar, he who was Ibn Saran.
 6
14 4 The chain on my neck jerked forward and I stumbled in the salt crusts.
 6
14 17 More than two hundred and fifty men had been originally in the salt chain.
 6
14 20 To be a salt slave, it is said, one must be strong.
 6
14 23 These had been fastened on us at the foot of the wall of the kasbah of the salt Ubar.
 6
14 29 Rocks on the desert, and the sheer walls of the salt Ubar's kasbah, looming above us, shone with dew, common in the Tahari in the early morning, to be burned off in the first hour of the sun.
 6
14 32 An excellent tool had the salt Ubar characterized her.
 6
14 34 The salt Ubar had speculated that he would enjoy better fortune in this respect.
 6
14 78 "You will be only a salt slave," she said.
 6
14 87 "salt slave!" she cried.
 6
14 97 salt slaves, in the Tahari, are among the lowest of the male slaves.
 6
14 109 "salt slave!" she said.
 6
14 195 The chance of their finding their way back to the kasbah of the salt Ubar, and thence, say, to Red Rock, would be small, even if they were not hooded; hooded, on the Klima march, of course, the chance, unhooded, of finding their way back at a later time would be negligible.
 6
14 198 Mercifully, the hood tended to protect the head from the sun; one does not go bareheaded in the desert; secondly, the darkness of the hood, when the salt crusts were reached, prevented blindness, from the reflection of the Tahari sun off the layered, bleak, white surfaces.
 6
14 301 I stood below her in the chain of salt slaves.
 6
14 441 The salt clung to my body.
 6
14 453 A kaiila moved swiftly past me, its paws scattering salt.
 6
14 510 No longer did I object to the salt in my flesh, the heat.
 6
14 528 The lock contained sand and salt.
 6
14 538 I felt the blood and salt in the split shreds of the leather wrappings on my legs.
 6
14 552 "Take salt," said a voice.
 6
14 554 "Take salt," he said.
 6
14 555 He fell to his knees, and thrust his face into the salt.
 6
14 559 We had not had salt in four days.
 6
14 630 In the distance, below, perhaps five pasangs away, in the hot, concave, white salt bleakness, like a vast, white, shallow bowl, pasangs wide, there were compounds, low, white buildings of mud brick, plastered.
 6
14 642 There was salt on us, to our thighs.
 6
14 645 In the last days we had been denied salt.
 6
14 659 We came upon a figure, fallen in the salt.
 6
14 660 It was he who had run ahead, who had cried out, disbelievingly, joyously, "I have made the march to Klima!" We turned the body over in the salt.
 6
14 664 I looked back once, to see Hamid, he who was in the fee of the Guard of the Dunes, the salt Ubar, who was supposedly the faithful lieutenant to Shakar, captain of the Aretai.
 6
14 665 He turned his kaiila, and, with a scattering of salt, following the others, disappeared over the crest.
 6
14 680 Then I followed Hassan, who had trudged on ahead, wading in the salt, following him toward Klima.
 6
15 1 T'zshal At Klima, and other such areas, salt is an industry.
 6
15 4 These food stores are delivered to scouted areas some pasangs from the compounds, whence they are retrieved later by salt slaves.
 6
15 13 It may be that, in remote times, an arm of Thassa extended here, or did extend here and then, later, in seismic dislocations or continental drift, became isolated from the parent body of water, leaving behind one or more smaller salt seas.
 6
15 14 Or it may be that the seas were independent, being fed by rivers, washing down accumulated salt from rocks over millions of square pasangs.
 6
15 17 Klima, among the salt districts, is most famous for its brine pits.
 6
15 18 salt can be found in solid form either above or below ground.
 6
15 19 With the subsidence of the sea and the shifting of strata, certain cubic pasangs of salt, in certain areas, became pressed into granitelike formations, through which one may actually tunnel.
 6
15 23 In places these salt mountains are more than six hundred feet high.
 6
15 24 At Klima, however, most of the salt is in solution.
 6
15 26 The salt in solution is obtained in two ways, by drilling and flush mining and, in the deeper pits, by sending men below to fetch the brine.
 6
15 28 In the double-pipe system fresh water is forced into the cavity through an outer pipe and the heavier solution of salt and water rises bubbling through the second pipe, or inner pipe, inserted within the larger.
 6
15 30 The separate-pipe system is, by most salt masters, regarded as the most efficient.
 6
15 33 But much of the salt at Klima comes from its famous brine pits.
 6
15 37 It is dragged through the sludge and lifted, the free water running from the vessel, leaving within the sludge of salt, thence to be poured into the retaining vessels, huge, wooden tubs.
 6
15 41 The same underground seepage which, in places, fills the brine pits, in other places, passing through salt-free strata, provides Klima with its fresh water.
 6
15 42 It has a salty taste like much of the water of the Tahari but it is completely drinkable, not having been filtered through the salt accumulations.
 6
15 43 It contains only the salt normal in Tahari drinking water.
 6
15 45 salt, of course, like water, is essential to life.
 6
15 49 One can permit profuse perspiration only where one has ample water and salt.
 6
15 50 Besides the mines and pits of the salt districts, there are warehouses and offices, in which complicated records are kept, and from which shipments to the isolated, desert storage areas are arranged.
 6
15 51 There are also processing areas where the salt is freed of water and refined to various degrees of quality, through a complicated system of racks and pans, generally exposed to the sun.
 6
15 53 There are also the molding sheds where the salt is pressed into the large cylinders, such that they may be roped together and eventually be laden on pack kaiila.
 6
15 54 The salt is divided into nine qualities.
 6
15 55 Each cylinder is marked with its quality, the name of its district, and the sign of that district's salt master.
 6
15 56 Needless to say, Klima contains as well, incidental to the salt industry centered there, the ancillary supports of these mining and manufacturing endeavors, such as its kitchens and commissaries, its kennels and eating sheds, its discipline pits, its assembly areas, its smithies and sh...
 6
15 146 "All here," said he, "my pretties, are slaves of the salt, slaves of the desert.
 6
15 147 We dig salt for the free; we are fed".
 6
15 148 "Even the salt master?" asked Hassan.
 6
15 152 The salt delivered, the outsiders do not disturb us.
 6
15 158 "Yes, as have all, even the salt master himself," said T'Zshal.
 6
15 162 We knew, generally, Red Rock, the kasbah of the salt Ubar and such, lay northwest of Klima, but, unless one knows the exact direction, the trails, this information is largely useless.
 6
15 167 Moreover, to protect the secrecy of the salt districts, the trails to them were not openly or publicly marked.
 6
15 168 This was a precaution to maintain the salt monopolies of the Tahari, as though the desert itself would not have been sufficient in this respect.
 6
16 23 Each raft contains a low frame, within which are placed the retaining vessels, large, wooden salt tubs, each approximately a yard in height and four feet in diameter.
 6
16 30 The retaining vessels are, at the salt docks, lifted from the rafts by means of pulleys and counterweights.
 6
16 43 I had expected them to be sterile bodies of water, from the absence of sunlight, precluding basic photosynthesis and the beginning of a food chain, and the high salt content of the fluid.
 6
16 58 Lelts are often attracted to the salt rafts, largely by the vibrations in the water, picked up by their abnormally developed lateral-line protrusions, and their fernlike cranial vibration receptors, from the cones and poles.
 6
16 123 At the top of the food chain in the pits, a descendant, dark-adapted, of the terrors of the ancient seas, stood the long-bodied, nine-gilled salt shark.
 6
16 125 "Let us gather salt," said a man.
 6
16 131 "Gather salt," said the steersman.
 6
16 132 Again we took our ropes and cones, and bent to the labor of dredging for salt.
 6
16 136 Then he said, "Gather salt".
 6
16 142 Even if one could secure water, it did not seem one could, afoot, carry water sufficient to walk one's way free of the salt districts.
 6
16 158 Because of the saline content of the water the salt shark, when not hunting, often swims half emerged from the fluid.
 6
16 160 This is a salt adaptation which conserves energy, which, otherwise, might be constantly expended in maintaining an attitude in which oxygenation can occur.
 6
16 176 Further, I wondered at the salt shark, blind, living in total darkness.
 6
16 190 We, in the darkness, felt the salt water drench us, heard the great body, more than twenty feet long, fall back in the water.
 6
16 195 We clung in the darkness to the retaining vessels, the salt tubs.
 6
16 205 I heard splintering wood, the retaining vessels, the salt tubs, struck and shattered, flung bounding and rolling from the frame.
 6
17 6 Even in the shadow of Klima's Keep itself, the squarish, stout, fortresslike building which houses the weaponry, domicile and office of the salt Master himself, did we recruit our crew.
 6
17 17 Far into the pit, distant from the salt docks, we slowed the raft, and steadied it with the long poles, holding it as nearly as we could in place.
 6
17 24 He had then lain down, behind the frame within which the salt tubs are stored, aft, and had slept.
 6
17 26 "Will you not use poison on the blade?" had asked a man at the salt dock.
 6
17 35 He may, if he choose, stake out, or whip or slay a man who fails his quota of gathered salt, or strikes a fellow, administering fierce, dread discipline as the whim may seize him, and yet, should he himself be slain, his slayer is not punished, but accedes to his authority and, in his ...
 6
17 62 Some salt slaves eat the lelt, raw, taken from the water, or gleaned from their harvesting vessels.
 6
17 67 I suppose, in the salt pit, one of our small lamps might seem to those who had in their lives known only darkness like the glory of a thousand suns.
 6
17 103 He cannot be easy with the men, of course, for he himself is subject to the sanctions of his superiors, in particular in connection with the salt quotas imposed upon his kennel.
 6
17 129 He then laid the lance over the tops of two of the large retaining vessels, the salt tubs, on the raft.
 6
17 179 If the lamps were lost, and the torches unlit, I did not think it likely we would return to the salt dock.
 6
17 183 "Hold to the salt tubs," said T'Zshal.
 6
17 206 It caught the man's leg between itself and the salt tub, breaking the leg, turning it suddenly oddly inward below the knee.
 6
17 210 "Stand within the frame of the salt tubs".
 6
17 261 It dove, and rubbed itself, twisting, in the salt at the bottom of the pit.
 6
17 266 Then the beast swept upward and I, clinging to the fin, erupted with it, eyes and nostrils stung with salt, half blinded, more than ten feet into the air.
 6
17 276 The fish leaped again from the water and I had the dagger free, plunging it, ripping, into the gill tissue below its jaw, one of the salt-adaptations of marine life in the pit.
 6
17 296 The carcass lay in the water, whitish, buoyed by the salt.
 6
17 307 There was salt on my hands, blood.
 6
17 319 "We have shared salt," I said.
 6
17 338 "Return to the salt docks," I said.
 6
18 6 "I am the salt Master," said T'Zshal.
 6
18 136 It contained dried fruit, biscuits, salt.
 6
18 144 "I wish you well," said I, "T'Zshal, salt Master of Klima".
 6
18 147 From the place in the salt crusts, where I had hidden it, I took the faded, cracked bit of silk that had been thrust in my collar on the march to Klima.
 6
18 156 Then together, under the Gorean moons, through the salt crusts, we began the trek from Klima.
 6
19 88 Furthermore, between Klima and Red Rock lay the regions patrolled by the men of Abdul, the salt Ubar, who had been known to me as Ibn Saran.
 6
19 99 A consequence of Hassan's plan was that we were actually moving, generally, south and west of Klima, in short, for a time, deeper into the most desolate, untraveled portions of the dune country, far even from the salt routes.
 6
21 166 But on the march to Klima I had had water, salt.
 6
21 217 I tasted sand, and salt.
 6
21 233 Now again, from his mouth and lips, and body, he scraped salt.
 6
21 236 He had given me, it seemed an inexplicable gift, water and salt from his own body.
 6
21 239 You have given me the water and salt from your own body.
 6
22 8 As I had surmised, there was contact between the ship and the nearest agents of Kurii, the men of Abdul, Ibn Saran, the salt Ubar.
 6
22 66 They were truly agents of Kurii, minions of Ibn Saran, Abdul, the salt Ubar.
 6
23 9 I then revived him with water and salt.
 6
23 239 "The minion of Abdul, the salt Ubar," said the man.
 6
24 1 I Bind a Girl, Reserving Her for Myself; I Then Address Myself to the Duties of Steel The outcome of the battle, some twenty pasangs from the kasbah of the salt Ubar, had never been in doubt.
 6
24 7 There was hard fighting, however, in the vicinity of Ibn Saran's own men, those of the salt Ubar and his allies, those who had fought with Tarna.
 6
24 508 "Ibn Saran," she said, "the master of the very kasbah itself, the salt Ubar, the Guard of the Dunes, is my master!" "No," I said.
 6
24 668 I wore garments of the men of the salt Ubar, taken from a prisoner.
 6
24 974 I threw aside the robes of the man of the salt Ubar.
 6
25 18 I did not detect, among the prisoners or the fallen, the small Abdul, the water carrier and henchman of the great Abdul, Ibn Saran, the salt Ubar, nor Hamid, traitor to the Aretai, who had struck Suleiman Pasha.
 6
25 19 Haroun spun about, his burnoose swirling, and, angrily, leaped to the dais of the salt Ubar, and strode upon it, like a frustrated larl.
 6
25 93 We had shared salt at Red Rock, on a burning roof.
 6
25 103 Hamid, whatever might be his guilt in the matter of the striking of Suleiman Pasha, had obviously fought with the men of the salt Ubar, and had raised his blade against his own tribe, the Aretai.
 6
26 14 The sun was now striking the east wall of what had been the kasbah of Abdul, Ibn Saran, who had been the salt Ubar.
 6
26 33 The sun was now full on the east wall of what had been the kasbah of Abdul, Ibn Saran, the salt Ubar.
 6
26 184 "We are slaves of the salt, slaves of the desert," he said.
 6
26 186 "The salt Ubar is gone," I said.
 6
26 187 "We will negotiate with local pashas and regulate the desert, and discuss the prices of the varieties of salt," said T'Zshal.
 6
26 188 "The price of salt will soon rise," I suggested.
 6
26 194 The slaves of the salt will ride".
 6
26 207 "With the control of much salt," I said, "you may have much what you wish".
 6
26 208 "We shall confederate the salt districts," said T'Zshal.
 6
26 216 He was a slave, true, but of no man, only of the salt, and the desert.
 6
26 1179 "Perhaps he who sent the message assumed that the information of the agents of Priest-Kings was sufficient to identify Ibn Saran with Abdul, the salt Ubar, or, at least, to link him with that villain".
 6
26 1231 I saw the two kasbahs, which had been those of Abdul, Ibn Saran, the salt Ubar, Guard of the Dunes, and Tarna, once a proud desert chieftainess.
 6
26 1269 I looked back at the kasbahs which had been those of Abdul, Ibn Saran, the salt Ubar, Guard of the Dunes, and Tarna, once a proud desert chieftainess.
 6
26 1278 I had picked her up, and claimed her for my own, in what had been the kasbah of Abdul, Ibn Saran, who had been salt Ubar in the Tahari, the Guard of the Dunes.
