| 5 | 66 | I lifted my spear, and felt that I could have slain the robed figure so calm and terrible before me. |
| 5 | 67 | "Kill me if you wish," said the man. |
| 5 | 68 | I lowered the spear. |

Had I been too foolish to understand that I was nothing before the power of the Priest-Kings? Was I now to wander the forlorn roads and fields of Gor in guilt and agony, a wretched example of the fate which the Priest-Kings could mete out to the foolish and proud?
