It seemed clear that the one-legged man had not revealed his true identity. - (Quarry of Gor, Chapter 18, Sentence #94)

We did not wish to be held in Brundisium, caught in a net of investigation and interrogation. We withdrew. Later, at sea, we pondered the matter. It seemed clear that the one-legged man had not revealed his true identity. That was clear even in Brundisium. But why should he do that, unless it was important to keep that identity secret? And why should it be kept secret, if the matter was all clear, lawful, and honorable, that of bringing a slave back to her proper chains? Why not have recourse to guardsmen? And would it not be improbable to put two silver staters at risk for a single slave, however beautiful, and one vended in a low market, that of the House of Anesidemus? Why would he not have attended the auction and bid on her personally? And one who could commit two silver staters in such a way most likely has more in hand. He must know something about the slave. - (Quarry of Gor)
