4	5	Cernus of Ar wore a coarse black robe, woven probably from the wool of the bounding, two-legged Hurt, a domesticated marsupial raised in large numbers in the environs of several of Gor's northern cities.	10
4	8	The black of the garment of Cernus was broken only by three stripes of silk sewn lengthwise on his left sleeve, two stripes of blue enclosing one of yellow.	10
4	45	"May I ask," inquired Cernus, "for whom you wear on your forehead the mark of the black dagger?" I would speak of these things, to some extent, with Cernus, for it was important, though perilous, that he should understand what purported to be my mission.	10
5	149	In the distance far below, and to the right, I could see, through the cloud cover, the black, snow-capped crags of the Sardar.	10
5	734	He had quick black eyes set in a shaven head, the threads of a mustache dangled at the sides of his mouth.	10
6	74	"He is of the black caste".	10
7	1	The Ship I could see the black disk now, moving swiftly, but not at great altitude, passing among the night clouds, under the three moons of Gor.	10
7	55	Then I heard one of the men-at-arms say, "There!" The black disk approached, more slowly now, seeming to sense its way.	10
7	78	A panel in the side of the black ship slid back and a man's head appeared.	10
7	184	Perhaps once, long ago, she had been brought, like these others, to Gor, on the black ship of a slaver.	10
7	185	I turned and observed the black disk, which had now silently lifted itself from the rocky ledge and was moving horizontally away, vanishing among the peaks of the Voltai.	10
8	116	"Black wine," said she, "from the Mountains of Thentis".	10
8	117	I had heard of black wine, but had never had any.	10
8	125	"I have heard," I said to Elizabeth, "that black wine is served hot".	10
8	136	Thentis does not trade the beans for black wine.	10
8	137	I have heard of a cup of black wine in Ar, some years ago, selling for a silver eighty-piece.	10
8	138	Even in Thentis black wine is used commonly only in High Caste homes".	10
8	140	"Originally, doubtless beans were brought from Earth," I said, "much as certain other seeds, and silk worms and such, but I doubt very much that the ship I saw last night had in its cargo anything as trivial as the beans for black wine".	10
10	30	"Where are the women who were brought to the Voltai last night on the black ship?" "In the kennels," he said.	10
10	78	He lifted his shaved head to mine, and the black eyes met mine.	10
10	99	He looked at me puzzled, his black eyes glinting.	10
11	49	"May I introduce Kuurus, of the black caste, but of our employ?" Coldly Flaminius nodded his head, and I did the same.	10
11	122	There was a black girl in each of them, both beautiful.	10
11	266	"He wears black," said Virginia.	10
12	63	When I had left the House of Cernus I had removed the livery of the black caste and had washed the sign of the dagger from my forehead.	10
13	199	"I see you now wear the red of the Warrior," said he, "rather than the black of the Assassin".	10
13	205	"To him it was black gold".	10
13	297	Mip, scarcely seeming to touch the one-strap with his finger, almost a tap, took the old bird from the perch and in a whiplike flurry of its wings it struck the outside perch and stood there, its old head moving alertly, the wicked black eyes gleaming.	10
13	304	The stars over the city were clear and bright, the coursing moons white with splendor against the black space of the Gorean night.	10
13	343	"Those of the black caste often hunt," said Mip.	10
14	109	I could buy a tarn, with carrying basket, easily and in five days, with Caprus and Elizabeth, be in the black Sardar, safe with Misk, Kusk, Al-Ka, Ba-Ta and my other friends.	10
14	117	He wore his long, black, coarse, woolen robe, that which bore the three stripes of silk, two blue enclosing a yellow, on the left sleeve.	10
14	123	"I thought those of the black caste slept the soundest of all men," said Cernus.	10
15	128	Ar lies in Gor's northern hemisphere; it is rather low in her temperate latitudes; the long cold rains of the winter, the darkness of the days, the occasional snows, turning to black slush in her streets, depressed me.	10
15	243	"The one with the black hair and the scar on the side of his face?" "I do not think he is ugly," I said, "but I think you mean the same one as I.	10
15	244	He does have black hair and there is a scar on the side of his face".	10
15	365	But perhaps more importantly he had been spreading rumors throughout the city of the desirability of trained barbarians, of which he now had several in training, those who had been brought to Gor with Virginia and Phyllis, some who had been brought to the pens earlier and not sold off immediately, a...	10
16	142	The black-haired, scarred fellow looked at me, and smiled.	10
16	223	Neither of them, incidentally, had ever seemed much taken aback by the fact that I commonly wore the black of the Assassin.	10
16	231	Throughout the stands, startling those multitudes, unsettling the other birds being drawn by the horned tharlarion on the low carts, there was heard the sudden shrill, ringing challenge scream of a tarn, unhooded, a giant tarn, black, a wild mountain cry of one of Gor's fiercest, most beautiful pred...	10
16	253	The wicked, black eyes, round and blazing with light, did not leave me.	10
16	255	The vast, long black wings, broad and mighty, opened and struck against the air, hurling a storm of dust and sand on all sides, almost tumbling the small, hooded Tarn Keeper from the low wagon.	10
17	34	It was held in the hand of a black-haired girl, collared of course, long-legged, in brief slave livery.	10
17	41	"What shall we do with this prisoner?" asked the black-haired girl of her fellows.	10
17	51	The black-haired girl, the tall girl, walked back and forth before me, her hands on her hips.	10
17	56	"Now you will serve us, Slaves," announced the black-haired girl.	10
17	61	Then each of us gave some of the girls wine, asking each "Wine, Mistress?" to which each of the girls, with a laugh, would cry out, "Yes, I will have wine!" "You will serve me the wine, Slave!" said the long-legged, black-haired girl.	10
17	95	The black-haired girl sobbed.	10
17	99	I took the black-haired, long-legged girl by the arm and dragged her to the line of bound girls.	10
17	116	I then took the cup from her and threw it to the side of the room, and took her into my arms, that lovely, long-legged, black-haired beast, provocative in the brevity of her slave livery, and kissed her, and well, and at length.	10
17	128	Once more I kissed the black-haired, long-legged girl, and she me.	10
17	147	I, masked in a leather hood, wearing bluish-gray silk, had again and again ridden the great black tarn for the Steels.	10
17	333	The man who had been dancing the ship dance had now left the pit of sand and, over against one wall, in the shadows of the torchlight, largely unnoted, danced alone, danced for himself the memories of gleaming Thassa and the swift black ships, the Tarns of the Sea, as the galleys of Port Kar are kno...	10
17	382	"It will take me from the sight of you! You black-haired, scarred—tarsk!" There were tears in her eyes.	10
17	397	Then everyone in the room, amazed at the audacity of the slave girl, to so affront one of the black caste, after a moment, began to roar with amusement, even the slave girls.	10
17	583	Her black hair was quite marvelous, long and unbound, falling as it did over her shoulders; her eyes were dark and deeply beautiful; her body, as the slave masters had intended, was tormentingly magnificent; the features of her face and lips showed to my eye, which had become more discerning in the ...	10
17	630	She drank, as had the black-haired girl, the leader of the girls of the Street of Pots.	10
18	148	"I do not think Ho-Tu will bother Kuurus, of the black caste," said I, rising to my feet.	10
18	154	He handed me the second cup, though I wore the black tunic.	10
18	193	"It is seldom," he said, "that those of the black caste laugh".	10
18	204	He was drunk, and perhaps that is why he was willing to speak to me, only of the black caste.	10
18	327	I could see the bread ovens in one wall; the long fire pit over which could be put cooking racks, the mountings for spits and kettle hooks; the fire pit was mostly black now, but, here and there, I could see a few broken sticks of glowing charcoal; aside from this, the light in the room came from on...	10
18	348	Always the thought burned through me, You, Killer, would never make a Player, and always I seemed driven by the black fear that would not speak itself but whose presence I could clearly sense.	10
18	351	"It is I, Kuurus, of the black caste," said I, "on the orders of Cernus bringing paga to prisoners on Kajuralia!" "But there is only one prisoner here," said he, puzzled.	10
18	415	"You are of the black caste," he whispered.	10
19	115	Slaves on catwalks opened metal, shuttered vents in the ceiling, which is domed, and in the curved walls; I caught a breath of the cool air; outside I could see stars in the black Gorean sky; I could not see any of her moons.	10
19	173	It was perhaps the plainest of all the barbarians who had been brought on the black ships; though I knew the girl to be among the most intelligent, and also, I had heard, among the most responsive.	10
19	187	Then I understood what was going on, perhaps belatedly, for I knew the girl, Red Silk before the black ships, was extremely responsive, and had even been used in the hall of Cernus for the amusement of his Warriors and guards; she had known the caress would be given; she had been ready; she had perh...	10
19	216	Then, regally, in black cloaks, with hoods, three women, two girls and their leader, climbed the stairs to the block, backs straight, heads high, their features concealed in the folds of the hood.	10
19	218	Their black cloaks were rather like ponchos with hoods, save that there were slits through which their arms emerged.	10
19	278	He then removed the black cloak from Virginia, who stood before us in the brief, sleeveless yellow livery, slashed to the belt, of a slave girl.	10
20	46	A slave girl was brought, a slim girl, in yellow Pleasure Silk, with short black hair, dark eyes, high cheekbones.	10
20	253	The other man who had entered with Hup was, to my astonishment, the blind Player whom I had encountered so long ago in the street outside the paga tavern near the great gate of Ar, who had beaten so brilliantly the Vintner in what had been apparently, until then, an uneven and fraudulent game, one t...	10
20	368	"It is he!" And in that instant the recognition came to me so suddenly and powerfully that the room seemed black for a moment and I could not breathe.	10
21	58	The banded ost is yellowish orange and is marked with black rings.	10
21	126	I looked beyond him, to see a long-legged, black-haired girl, her hands on her hips, regarding me.	10
21	185	The man was one of those slaves who, garbed in black, armed with iron hooks, drag the dead, human or beast, from the sand.	10
22	12	I leaped from the back of the tarn I rode and ran through the compound toward the perch of the black tarn.	10
22	24	"Do not fear," I said and grimly strode toward the perch of the great black tarn, the majestic tarn of Ko-ro-ba, my Ubar of the Skies.	10
22	29	I saw blood on the beak of the bird, its round black eyes, gleaming, wild.	10
22	76	I stepped toward the great black tarn.	10
22	142	Its feathers lacked the fiery sheen of the young tarn; its beak was not the gleaming yellow of the other birds, but a whitish yellow; its breathing was not that of the other birds; but its eyes were those of the unconquerable tarn, wild, black, fierce; gleaming with pride and fury; determined that n...	10
22	181	I watched the dark, swift flight of the quarrel, like a black needle, and saw it drop into the back of the Taurentian, who suddenly stiffened, seeming inches taller, the metal fins of the bolt like a tiny dark triangle in the purple of the cloak, and pitched lifeless from the wall.	10
22	349	The crowd cried out, as it always did, at the sight of that monstrous head, the wicked beak, that sable, crackling crest, the round, black gleaming eyes.	10
22	353	I think there were none in that vast stadium who did not for the moment, even in the sun of summer, feel a swift chill, suddenly fearing themselves endangered, suddenly feeling themselves unwitting intruders, trespassers, wandered by accident, unwilling, into the domain of that majestic carnivore, t...	10
22	420	I laughed and then bent down to the neck of the black tarn.	10
22	422	With a sudden scream and a snap of the wide black wings the War Tarn of Ko-ro-ba was aloft.	10
22	430	This warned the rider of the eighth bird, a Gold, and he, bent low in the saddle, looked behind him to see, piercing the rings, eyes blazing, wings snapping, the great black tarn.	10
22	433	My tarn struck him like a screaming saber of black lightning flashing through the ring.	10
22	510	"On!" Ubar of the Skies, like black fire, burned past one ring and another.	10
22	523	The great black tarn hurtled on.	10
22	529	Ubar of the Skies suddenly uttered a scream that terrified even me, raising the hair on my neck and arms; it was not simply the challenge scream of his kind; it was a scream of pleasure, of horrifying eagerness, of the tarn's lust for blood and war; steel-shod talons grasping, screaming, beak tearin...	10
22	558	Like an arrow, a black torrent, Ubar of the Skies flashed toward the side rings.	10
22	589	Though I was not of Ar I, too, still in the saddle of the black tarn, joined in that song, that song of Glorious Ar.	10
23	4	I had ridden the black tarn.	10
23	92	There I had once more donned the black of the Assassin.	10
23	98	"You wear upon your forehead the mark of the black dagger," whispered Cernus.	10
23	101	"Yes, Cernus," said I, "it is for you I wear the black dagger".	10
23	208	I saw the small boxes which had been brought from the black ships.	10
23	266	I washed from my forehead the mark of the black dagger.	10
24	4	They were of new leather, black and shining, with embossings of brass.	10
24	137	"He is now, chained, on his way to the Sardar, along with the materials taken from the room of the beast and what had been brought in from the black ships.	10
24	250	You would not then accept my gold, thinking it black gold".	10
24	252	"I know the gold of Tarl Cabot," he said, "is not black gold.	10
24	266	Perhaps within the hour I and the black tarn would depart the walls of Ar.	10
24	416	I turned, the room seeming to swirl about me, black and startling, and, scarcely feeling the tiles beneath my feet, departed from the court of the Ubar.	10
24	417	Enraged, I wandered the corridors, black hatred consuming me, my heart pounding with fury.	10
24	419	Had it been that his eye had glanced upon her and he had, by the prerogative of the Ubar, commanded her to his slave ring? But was this honor? My hatred for the Ubar of Ar, whom I had helped restore to his throne, welled up within me, volcanic, molten and black.	10

15	361	She had high cheekbones, and flashing black eyes, and coal-black hair, now worn high, pinned, over her head.	10
5	17	On the right side it was black, and cut, and swollen.	10
6	196	Here and there, on the water, apart from the flaming rence island, I could see the flat, black keels of rence craft, which had earlier been cast off and burned to the water, to prevent them from being used for escape.	10
8	444	It was in my mouth, black and swollen, that she had put the kiss of the Mistress.	10
8	571	She saw me, the black, swollen mouth, the eyes, and screamed helplessly.	10
9	452	I could see her barely in the light of the coals of the cooking fire, now a flat, reticulated pattern of red and black.	10
10	86	My own flag bore the design of the head of a black bosk against a background of vertical green bars on a white field.	10
11	92	It was white with vertical green stripes on its field and, over these, in black, the head of a Bosk.	10

15	393	Her hair was beautiful, rich, long and black.	10
17	187	Overhead the white clouds swept past, like white, leaping tabuk fleeing from the jaws of the black-maned larl.	10
17	236	From both the north and the south, like distant black slivers knifing through the cold waters of Thassa, masts down, came the fleets of the fifth wave.	10
17	283	Mine own had been black-plumaged, a giant tarn, glossy, his great talons shod with steel, a bird bred for speed and war, a bird who had been, in his primitive, wild way, my friend.	10
17	381	And then, their fighters disembarked, the birds with their riders swept away, up into the black, vicious sleeting sky, to light the oily rags, one by one, in the clay flasks of tharlarion oil and hurl them, from the heights of the sky, down onto the decks of ships of Cos and Tyros.	10
18	40	The tiny storm sail, swollen with the black wind and sleet, tore at the yard and the brail ropes.	10
18	132	In a few moments the tarn spread his wings before the black wind and, caught in the blast, was hurled before the Dorna, and began, in dizzying circles, to climb in the wind and sleet.	10
18	144	Once the bird fell so low that the boy's feet and the bottom of the rope on which he stood splashed a path in the churning waters, and then the bird, responding to my fierce pressures on the one-strap, beat its way up again and again flew, but then only yards over the black, rearing waves, the roari...	10

1	57	I wore black, an upswept hairdo, pearls, white gloves.	10
1	154	Suddenly things went almost black.	10
1	178	Everything went black, and I collapsed to the rug before the mirror.	10
3	181	I seized the first garments I touched, a pair of tan, bell-bottomed slacks and a black, buttoning, bare-midriff blouse.	10
3	213	I buttoned the collar of the black blouse high about my neck, to conceal the steel band on my throat.	10
3	449	With one hand I fumbled with the buttons on my black, bare-midriff blouse, fastening them.	10
3	470	It was round, black, circular, small, perhaps seven or eight feet in diameter, perhaps five feet in thickness.	10
4	7	He wore a black tunic.	10
4	14	It was made of black metal.	10
4	26	He stepped behind me and tore open the top button of the black, bare-midriff blouse.	10
4	108	"Please! Please!" "There is little time, little time!" urged the man in the black tunic.	10
4	127	The large man nodded at the man in the black tunic.	10
4	128	The man in the black tunic then lifted his arm.	10
4	132	I could briefly see men, in black tunics, inside, fastening it to plates in a steel flooring.	10
4	155	Then I stood before them as I had, in the tan slacks, in the black, bare-midriff blouse, save that I now wore a steel anklet.	10
4	156	"Observe," said the large man, indicating the black ship.	10
4	173	"Hurry!" called the man in the black tunic, from within the large ship.	10
4	178	"Hurry! Hurry!" cried the man in the black tunic.	10
4	197	Strong hands seized me from behind, one of the men in a black tunic.	10
4	241	But shortly thereafter one of the men in a black tunic, wearing sandals with metal plates on the bottoms, stepped carefully, step by step, across the steel plating.	10
5	36	Some hundred yards or so from me I saw a mass of torn metal, a ruptured structure of black steel, half buried in the grass.	10
5	40	I still wore the clothing in which I had been captured, the tan slacks, the black, bare-midriff blouse.	10
5	51	These men, those in black tunics, and those, too, who had been instrumental in my capture, were the first men I had ever learned to fear.	10
5	56	But these men, those in black tunics, and those who had been instrumental in my capture, I had learned to fear.	10
5	71	The inside of the ship was black and scorched.	10
5	125	Another two hornlike projections emerged from its head, just over its black, gleaming, wicked eyes.	10
5	183	The silverish disk had now landed near the rent, half-buried black ship.	10
5	184	The black ship itself glowed redly, but, in a few seconds, the glow faded.	10
5	187	They, like the men of the black ship, wore tunics but these were of some shimmering, purplish material.	10
5	196	Then it moved above the wreck of the black ship.	10
5	200	And so, too, was the wreck of the black ship.	10
6	39	I remembered awakening again, in the grass, and then discovering the wreck of the black ship.	10
6	79	But the black ship had crashed.	10
6	103	The wagon itself seemed damaged, partly stained with black.	10
6	124	His hair, long and black, did not seem well cared for.	10
6	285	One, at least, of the men on the black ship had spoken English.	10
7	123	However, most of the camisks that I have personally seen, and those we were given, were belted with black or brown binding fiber; sometimes, instead, a long, thin strap of leather, "binding leather," is used.	10
7	392	We could see a large, flat wagon, drawn by four huge, beautifully groomed black bosk.	10
8	42	I saw the flash of a triangular, black dorsal fin.	10
8	196	Almost all had roofs with wooden shingles, painted black.	10
8	436	I thought I saw a small man, garbed in black, watching us, but I was not sure.	10
8	563	I loved its ramps going down to the river and winding among the warehouses, the painted, carved wood on its buildings, the black shingles, the smell of bosk on the ramps and the creak of wagons, the smell of fish and salt, and glistening tharlarion, from the river, the smell of hides and fur, and sa...	10

9	360	The moons fled across the black sky, burning with its bright stars.	10
10	31	The eyes were large, black, round, the snout wide, two-nostriled and leathery.	10
10	110	It howled and lunged for me, jaws snapping, great black, furred arms grasping.	10
10	259	I recalled the collar had been later removed at the location referred to as point P, before the black ship had fled the earth, through the gray skies of that August dawn.	10
10	274	I remembered awakening, lying in a Gorean field, some hundred yards or so from the black wreckage of the slavers' ship.	10
10	360	I remembered now that once, in Laura, I had seen a man, garbed in black.	10
10	419	The beast now crouched on the straw, its nostrils wide in the leathery snout, its eyes bright and black, the ears lifted.	10
11	226	Everything went black, but I did not faint, held in position by the guards.	10
11	242	Everything almost went black again.	10
11	762	Besides, for all I knew, they might be even more terrible, and fierce, than those of the black ship.	10
11	766	I had seen their power, when they had destroyed the black ship.	10
11	768	And, I mused, the men of the black, disklike ship, who had brought me here, were not such that I would expect them, even if they should find me, which I regarded as unlikely, to return me to Earth.	10
11	862	I felt the pebbles of the shore under my feet, and then grass, and then, whether from hunger, or exhaustion, or fear, everything went black, and I fainted.	10
11	1179	I lowered my eyes to his sandals, which were of black, polished leathers with wide straps, and then, still smiling, tauntingly, lifted my head.	10
12	121	They had long, shaggy black hair.	10
13	111	Her ship fell to those of the black slavers of Schendi.	10
13	558	My feet felt beneath them the black, warm, root-filled, living earth of Gor.	10
13	1051	I felt like a golden-pelted tabuk, lying between the paws of the black-maned mountain larl.	10
13	1106	I remembered the tan slacks, the black, buttoning, bare-midriff blouse.	10
14	665	In his belt I saw that he had thrust an eighteen-inch strip of black leather, binding leather; it was not jeweled; it was common leather; it was about three quarters of an inch in width; it was supple, that it might well encircle limbs; it was flat, that it might well fit against them; it was of a s...	10
15	411	Her hair was glossy and black, and her master had had her cut it at the small of her back.	10

15	1404	I poured the wine from the small copper bowl into the black, red-trimmed wine crater, placing the small bowl in a rack to one side of the fire.	10
