Many of these, drawn by draft tharlarion, were surmounted by tableaux, several showing valiant Cosians, mariners and ground forces, triumphant over a variety of perhaps once-formidable, but now whimpering and cringing, foes. One float judiciously portrayed grateful citizens acclaiming an enthroned figure representing Lurius of Jad, the Ubar of Cos, presumably expressing their thanks for the privilege of flourishing under so just and beneficent a rule. Some others celebrated and advertised various organizations and businesses. One establishment advertised was The House of the Golden Urt, which was now, apparently, under new management. It had once been managed, as I recalled, by three women, the 'Three Ubaras', Melete, Iantha, and Philomena. Interestingly, there was no float, at least as far as we now had noted, for The Living Island, which was surely one of the better-known taverns of Sybaris. Too, interestingly, no float, at least as yet, had proclaimed the glory of the governor of Sybaris, Archelaos. - (Avengers of Gor)
