Sometimes a doting parent buys such a set for sons, that neither will seem to be receiving the most valuable gift. - (Kajira of Gor, Chapter 32, Sentence #161)

To be sure, mercifully, such sets are usually soon broken up. It is cruel to have sisters pitted miserably, competitively, against one another for a master's attention and affection. Sometimes brothers will pool their resources, to buy such a set. Sometimes a doting parent buys such a set for sons, that neither will seem to be receiving the most valuable gift. But too often I fear, such sets are purchased for aesthetic purposes, perhaps being used as display slaves, perhaps, among other applications, to be placed in brief, charmingly revealing tunics and neck-chained to the back of a rich man's palanquin, thus forming a lovely addition to his entourage. Once, I supposed, there might have been considerable differences of other sorts, not physical, separating us, differences of demeanor and attitude, differences of posture, or body language, of expression, of command or regality, and surely so, from what I had heard of the imperious, tyrannous Sheila, Tatrix of Tharna. But now I saw such differences were gone, and we were now more closely matched than one might have conceived possible. - (Kajira of Gor)
