In the center of the tiers, to my left, there was what, garlanded and ribboned, I supposed, might count as a box, or reserved area, in which were three men and two Kurii. - (Plunder of Gor, Chapter 60, Sentence #12)

The scene of the entertainment, as it had been spoken of, was not an arena or a theater, but it was, in effect, a closed area, closed on one side by the tiers, to my left, and, on another side, that behind me, by the house of Decius Albus. The other two sides, that before me, and to my right, were closed with armed guards, of which there might have been seventy or eighty. These wore the livery of the House of a Hundred Corridors. In the center of the tiers, to my left, there was what, garlanded and ribboned, I supposed, might count as a box, or reserved area, in which were three men and two Kurii. I did not know this at the time, as I found Kurii difficult to distinguish from one another, as perhaps they did humans, but the two Kurii there were the two Kurii who had been colleagues of Surtak, and had assisted in the raid in Brundisium, which had succeeded in capturing Eve, she apparently intended by Lord Arcesilaus as a gift for Lord Grendel. In the center of the three men in the box, not surprisingly, was the true host of the festivities, large-bodied and coarse-featured, in white and gold robes, Decius Albus, trade advisor to the Ubar, Marlenus, and master of the House of a Hundred Corridors. On his right was Drusus Andronicus, long-armed, handsome, and stalwart, in suitable scarlet, betokening his caste, who stood high in the house, and, on his left, clad openly, brazenly, unapologetically, in the hues of the night, was Tyrtaios, of the caste whose members acknowledge no Home Stone, the caste of Assassins. - (Plunder of Gor)
