It is for such a reason that Ar remained inactive in the winter. - (Vagabonds of Gor, Chapter 12, Sentence #153)

"There is treason of gigantic dimension in Ar," I said. "Some of those most highly placed in the city are party to this treachery, among them Seremides, high general, and Saphronicus, to whose staff you are adjunct. It is for such a reason that Ar's Station was not relieved, but fell. It is for such a reason that Ar remained inactive in the winter. It is for such a reason that her major land forces came north with the Cosians at Torcadino. Now Ar has been lured into the delta! It is no mystery, I tell you, or stroke of unaccountable fortune, that hundreds of craft, of various sorts, were available in Turmus and Ven for the delta expedition. But could this have been the case if Cosian forces had earlier entered the delta, in great numbers, to flee the vengeance of Ar? Would they themselves not have taken such craft, or destroyed them, as they could? Where do you think the sympathies of those in Turmus and Ven lie, with Ar, or Cos? Is it not clear to you that these craft were gathered together, or prepared, for those of Ar, that the craft are almost uniformly in wretched condition, that the wood is old, the planks split, the hulls weakened, perhaps even caulking dug out, or replaced with mud and tar? In many of the rence craft the rence is already half rotted. - (Vagabonds of Gor)
