I said, as I felt the tearing jerk on my hands, anchored behind one of the knots, as I felt my feet pulled away, upward, away from the courtyard, and, for a sickening moment, I saw the ground dropping away below me. I heard cries below, and sensed Pani rushing out from the barracks, to the courtyard. Something went past, like a bird, a fierce whisper of wind, the rushing of a fletched shaft toward the starlit sky. - (Mariners of Gor)
