The blow must be struck soon, before the bird spreads its wings. - (Smugglers of Gor, Chapter 31, Sentence #15)

"We have that for which we have come," said Darla.

But we, unlikely informants, unsuspected women, no army to be encountered, but a small band, invisible in the woods, as elusive as panthers, have penetrated the forest, and discovered what men had not, not only that the rumored ship exists, but its actual location, and that its departure is imminent. The blow must be struck soon, before the bird spreads its wings. No longer now is the employer blind, no longer now need he sustain the expense of maintaining large numbers of men at the mouth of the Alexandra. He may now organize and dispatch a small, chosen force, perhaps only two hundred men, to move with speed, and in secrecy, to emerge from the forest, burn the ship, and then withdraw, their task completed, no battle given. It will be a raid, unanticipated and effective, over and done with before the enemy fully comprehends what has occurred, before any defense can be mounted, after which the raiders will slip away, returning to the forest, long before any pursuit can be organized. - (Smugglers of Gor)
