"It is Sarm," I called, "who is a traitor to the Nest, for this Nest will die, and he has not permitted the founding of a new Nest". "The Nest is eternal," said Sarm. "No," said the Mother, and the message again came from Sarm's own translator, and was echoed a thousand times by those of the other Priest-Kings in the great chamber. Suddenly with a vicious, almost incalculable speed Sarm's right bladed projection flashed toward my head. I hardly saw it coming but an instant before its flight began I had seen the tremor of a fiber in his shoulder and I knew the signal for its strike had been transmitted. I counterslashed. And when the swift living blade of Sarm was still a full yard from my throat it met the lightning steel of a Gorean blade that had once been carried at the siege of Ar, that had met and withstood and conquered the steel of Pa-Kur, Gor's Master Assassin, until that time said to be the most skilled swordsman on the planet. - (Priest-Kings of Gor)
