Callisthenes

Book 15. (113 results) Rogue of Gor

Chapter # Sentence # Quote Confidence
25 87 "Aemilianus will never confer with us should he learn that Callisthenes is to be party to our proceedings, nor will Callisthenes permit himself to attend a meeting at which he knows that one of Ar's Station is to be present".
Details
10
28 271 "I am Callisthenes, Captain of Port Cos," said Callisthenes.
Details
10
29 138 "On the assumption that the pirates understood what was occurring," I said to Callisthenes, "does it not seem strange to you that they made no effort to interfere with the placing of the chain?" "It was guarded, of course," said Callisthenes.
Details
10
25 50 "He will fetch Callisthenes, who is captain of the forces of Port Cos in Victoria, he in search of the topaz.
Details
10
25 92 "If either Aemilianus or Callisthenes should be felled in my tavern, I think the incident would be unlikely to escape the attention of their allied guardsmen".
Details
10
25 96 "Glyco, to whom I have spoken, being a merchant of Port Cos, can meet openly with Callisthenes without arousing suspicion.
Details
10
25 97 There will be no difficulty, thus, in bringing Callisthenes to our meeting.
Details
10
25 101 He, like Callisthenes, is doubtless under surveillance by spies of pirates".
Details
10
25 126 "What do you know of Callisthenes?" I asked Callimachus.
Details
10
25 135 "It was evidence brought against Callisthenes in Port Cos five years ago by Callimachus," said Tasdron, "which cost him an early promotion, a matter of minor peculation".
Details
10
25 140 Indeed, how can one practice honor in great things, if not in small things? "And later," said Tasdron, "it was the testimonies of Callisthenes which resulted in Callimachus' loss of command".
Details
10
25 151 Why else do you think he sought you in Victoria?" "I pledge you that I will work well with Callisthenes," said Callimachus.
Details
10
25 166 "Then all we have to do," said Callimachus, bitterly, "is to convince Callisthenes to put himself in the power of the men of Ar's Station".
Details
10
28 73 "He had only to fetch Callisthenes, whom he knows.
Details
10
28 105 I now knew him to be Callisthenes.
Details
10
28 108 "Greetings, Callisthenes," said Callimachus, rising to greet him.
Details
10
28 109 "Greetings, Captain," said Callisthenes.
Details
10
28 113 "There are various captains in Port Cos," grinned Callisthenes.
Details
10
28 115 "They remember you, as I do," said Callisthenes, "with warmth".
Details
10
28 118 It had been on the evidences supplied by Callisthenes that Callimachus had been removed from his command.
Details
10
28 120 Callisthenes, in the circumstances, to the thinking of Callimachus, had had no choice in the matter.
Details
10
28 123 "It was largely on the recommendation of Callimachus, after he was relieved from his command," said Callisthenes, "that I was promoted to the captaincy".
Details
10
28 127 "I have tried to live up to your trust," said Callisthenes.
Details
10
28 129 "We shall always think of you as our captain," said Callisthenes.
Details
10
28 131 "You taught me much," said Callisthenes, "and you trained it well".
Details
10
28 134 "Do I not know you?" asked Callisthenes, turning to me.
Details
10
28 137 "Yes!" said Callisthenes.
Details
10
28 139 "What is your name?" asked Callisthenes.
Details
10
28 141 "Yes," said Callisthenes.
Details
10
28 144 "I would have been here earlier," said Glyco to Tasdron, "but I could not readily find Callisthenes".
Details
10
28 145 "I was about my duties," said Callisthenes.
Details
10
28 148 "I fell," said Callisthenes.
Details
10
28 150 "It is nothing," said Callisthenes.
Details
10
28 154 "What is the delay?" asked Callisthenes.
Details
10
28 156 "Who?" asked Callisthenes.
Details
10
28 158 "Very well," said Callisthenes.
Details
10
28 166 Callisthenes put his helmet beside the table, and threw back his cloak.
Details
10
28 172 "She is a pretty slave," said Callisthenes.
Details
10
28 179 "Interesting," said Callisthenes.
Details
10
28 189 Callisthenes looked to the door through which Peggy, a moment before, had disappeared.
Details
10
28 192 "I have heard they make excellent slaves, and are hot sluts," said Callisthenes.
Details
10
28 203 "Is she popular with your customers?" asked Callisthenes.
Details
10
28 205 "Fortunate must be the men of the world Earth," said Callisthenes, "to have such slaves".
Details
10
28 207 "The men of Earth must be fools," said Callisthenes.
Details
10
28 210 "Excellent," said Callisthenes.
Details
10
28 212 What true man would want one in any other way? Callisthenes then looked about.
Details
10
28 215 "Very well," smiled Callisthenes.
Details
10
28 220 Callisthenes, too, seeing this action, drew his cloak about himself, concealing the insignia of Port Cos.
Details
10
28 238 "Who is he?" inquired Callisthenes of Tasdron.
Details
10
28 241 I noted the right hand of Callisthenes had slipped within his cloak, to the hilt of the sword which hung there.
Details
10
28 244 "Who is he?" asked the newcomer, of Tasdron, nodding toward Callisthenes.
Details
10
28 265 "Who is he?" asked the man, gesturing with his head toward Callisthenes.
Details
10
28 266 "Who is he?" asked Callisthenes, menacingly, of Tasdron.
Details
10
28 269 "Who is he?" asked the newcomer, indicating Callisthenes.
Details
10
28 278 "Port Cos!" cried Callisthenes.
Details
10
28 287 Then he turned to Callisthenes.
Details
10
28 289 Callisthenes hesitated.
Details
10
28 305 You are both, Callisthenes and you, here met on neutral ground".
Details
10
28 339 "Callisthenes," said Callimachus, turning to the captain of Port Cos, "is it your intention to strike me with your sword".
Details
10
28 340 "No," said Callisthenes.
Details
10
28 343 Callisthenes sheathed his sword.
Details
10
28 374 "Very well," said Callisthenes.
Details
10
29 16 Interestingly enough, it had been the warriors, Callisthenes and Aemilianus, who had tended to regard the plan as dangerous and barren.
Details
10
29 17 Callisthenes, in particular, had been outspoken against it.
Details
10
29 22 "The fleet of Ragnar Voskjard," had said Callisthenes, "can never join with the fleet of Policrates.
Details
10
29 25 "The matter was important to the Merchant Council," said Callisthenes.
Details
10
29 29 "That is known to me," said Callisthenes.
Details
10
29 31 "Yes," said Callisthenes.
Details
10
29 35 "Supposedly," said Callisthenes, "though its existence is now doubtless known to the western towns".
Details
10
29 47 "Possibly you do not have the vision or the resources," said Callisthenes.
Details
10
29 49 "Politics?" inquired Callisthenes.
Details
10
29 63 "It was forged in Cos," said Callisthenes.
Details
10
29 65 "That is possibly true," said Callisthenes, "but then, too, it is we who will be the direct recipient of its benefits".
Details
10
29 67 "Surely Port Cos will find some benefits in being spared the predations of pirates," said Callisthenes.
Details
10
29 70 "The topaz, given the existence of the chain," said Callisthenes, "is now meaningless, though, to be sure, I am charged with the attempt to intercept it, a charge in which I have, thanks to our young friend here, failed".
Details
10
29 71 Callisthenes glanced meaningfully at me.
Details
10
29 75 "It is a foolish plan," said Callisthenes.
Details
10
29 80 "Discuss your plan with Aemilianus," suggested Callisthenes.
Details
10
29 108 "The plan is not only dangerous," said Callisthenes, "and I would not risk men or ships of Port Cos in such a rash scheme, but it is, at least as far as preventing the gathering of the river pirates goes, unnecessary.
Details
10
29 111 "It will be quite effective," said Callisthenes.
Details
10
29 113 "The chain is patrolled, of course," said Callisthenes.
Details
10
29 117 "With all due respect, my friend, Callisthenes," said Callimachus, "I must concur with Glyco, for his judgment in this matter seems sound".
Details
10
29 118 "He is of the Merchants," said Callisthenes.
Details
10
29 121 "With the chain in place," said Callisthenes, "we need fear nothing".
Details
10
29 126 "We can handle our own affairs in Port Cos," said Callisthenes.
Details
10
29 129 "You will do so at your own risk, my dear captain," said Callisthenes, grimly.
Details
10
29 131 "Captain, Callisthenes," said I, "surely the pirates, as you yourself have suggested, are well informed".
Details
10
29 134 "Supposedly this was done in secrecy," said Callisthenes, "but I think there is little doubt they must have understood what was being done.
Details
10
29 139 "But no effort, even a small one, or one in force or desperation, by steel or by guile, was made to prevent its placing?" "None, at least to my knowledge," said Callisthenes.
Details
10
29 141 "I trust so," said Callisthenes.
Details
10
29 142 "Does this lack of opposition or interference on the part of pirates as powerful and well organized as those of Ragnar Voskjard not seem puzzling to you?" "Yes," said Callisthenes.
Details
10
29 144 "I do not know," said Callisthenes, angrily.
Details
10
29 146 "And what do you conclude?" inquired Callisthenes.
Details
10
29 148 Callisthenes scowled at the portly merchant.
Details
10
29 149 "If that is their belief, they are, in my opinion, surely mistaken," said Callisthenes.
Details
10
29 151 "Surely," said Callisthenes, "the chain—and, too, of course, the vessels of Port Cos".
Details
10
29 162 "The chain will stop them," said Callisthenes.
Details
10
29 166 "Would you leave such an enemy at your back?" "It would take ten thousand men to storm that stronghold," said Callisthenes.
Details
10
29 168 "Your plan is the plan of a fool," said Callisthenes.
Details
10
29 172 "I will not risk a large number of men in this," said Callisthenes, "but I will tell you what I might do.
Details
10
29 178 "You would ask some forty men to stand against them, holding the sea gate for perhaps two Ahn?" "Surely," said Callisthenes.
Details
10
29 180 "It would be difficult," said Callisthenes.
Details
10
29 183 "It is sometimes surprising," said Callisthenes, regarding me, smiling, "what a few men, determined and skilled, can accomplish".
Details
10
29 185 "Empty grain ships, towed, their identity concealed in the darkness, might suggest such a fleet," mused Callisthenes.
Details
10
29 186 "Accept his plan in its plausible form, my friend, Callisthenes, or let us put it entirely from our minds," said Callimachus.
Details
10
29 188 "That is doubtless best," agreed Callisthenes.
Details
10
29 190 "I thought you would be," said Callisthenes.
Details
10
29 201 "Give me twenty men," I said to Callisthenes.
Details
10
33 23 "Was it Callisthenes?" I asked him.
Details
10
33 24 "It could not be Callisthenes," said Callimachus.
Details
10
33 61 "Perhaps you were betrayed by one of the men of Callisthenes or of Aemilianus," said Callimachus.
Details
10
33 105 "Where is Callisthenes?" I asked.
Details
10
33 114 I was pleased to hear that Callisthenes had taken up his post at the south guard station.

Book 16. (62 results) Guardsman of Gor

Chapter # Sentence # Quote Confidence
4 226 I could not but think, bitterly, that if the Voskjard, truly, had had only some fifty ships, as we had gathered from the intelligences supplied to us by Callisthenes, we, if supplemented by the twenty ships of Callisthenes, yet to appear, would now have outnumbered him.
Details
10
6 115 "Callisthenes! Callisthenes!" we cried.
Details
10
3 66 Twenty others lay to in the waters near the south guard station, which post was held by Callisthenes.
Details
10
3 168 "The information of Callisthenes was apparently mistaken," said Callimachus.
Details
10
3 182 "At least she is commanded by men such as Callisthenes," I said.
Details
10
4 10 "Where are the ships of Callisthenes?" inquired an officer of Callimachus.
Details
10
4 32 Acting on the information supplied by Callisthenes we had conjectured that the Voskjard commanded in the neighborhood of fifty ships.
Details
10
4 42 "Where are the ships of Callisthenes?" asked someone.
Details
10
4 64 "We must hold the line until the arrival of Callisthenes," said Callimachus.
Details
10
4 236 "We must hold the line for Callisthenes," said Callimachus.
Details
10
4 247 "Wait for Callisthenes," said Callimachus.
Details
10
4 249 "And leave Callisthenes to face fifty ships?" asked Callimachus.
Details
10
4 250 "Forget about Callisthenes," said the officer.
Details
10
4 253 "It is here that we are to be joined by Callisthenes," said Callimachus.
Details
10
4 255 "Where is Callisthenes?" asked the man next to me.
Details
10
5 114 "Where are the ships of Callisthenes!" cried a man.
Details
10
5 224 "Callimachus will not abandon Callisthenes," I said.
Details
10
5 225 "Where is Callisthenes?" asked a man.
Details
10
5 228 "Not without the support of Callisthenes," said another fellow.
Details
10
5 230 "Callisthenes will be here before morning," said a man.
Details
10
6 1 We Await Support from Callisthenes; It does not Come; The Third Fleet of the Voskjard; Again We Sound Our Battle Horns We saw the Leda of Port Cos taken full in the hull.
Details
10
6 73 "Where is Callisthenes?" inquired the fellow from the Mira.
Details
10
6 109 "It is Callisthenes!" cried a man.
Details
10
6 111 "Callisthenes!" cried a man.
Details
10
6 113 "Callisthenes!" cried other men.
Details
10
6 121 "The tide turns!" Callisthenes commanded twenty ships.
Details
10
6 123 "The fleet of the Voskjard approaches!" "Callisthenes!" we cried, joyfully.
Details
10
6 124 "Callisthenes!" Joy, too, reigned on the decks of the Olivia.
Details
10
6 131 "It cannot be Callisthenes," I said.
Details
10
6 145 But they could not approach from the south in such force, for the south was guarded by the fleet of Callisthenes.
Details
10
6 149 It was for such a purpose that we had placed the twenty ships of Callisthenes at that point, to guard against this major weakness in our defenses.
Details
10
6 152 Callisthenes must have withdrawn his ships from their position.
Details
10
6 156 The ships of Callisthenes had been essential to our defense of the river.
Details
10
6 159 Callisthenes must have abandoned his post.
Details
10
10 58 Following the Tuka and the Tais, by prearranged plan, we in the Tina had then rowed southward along the chain until we came to the point where the northward-moving portion of the Voskjard's fleet, that which we had once mistaken for the support vessels of Callisthenes, had cut the chain.
Details
10
10 61 Thus, it had not been opposed by Callisthenes.
Details
10
12 176 "Callisthenes!" cried Callimachus.
Details
10
12 199 "What were done with the ships of Port Cos, your fleet?" asked Callimachus of Callisthenes.
Details
10
12 212 "Do not rise to your feet," I said, warningly, to Callisthenes.
Details
10
12 221 Then he said to the officer nearby, indicating Callisthenes, "Put him in chains".
Details
10
12 222 We watched Callisthenes being led away, between two soldiers, the officer following.
Details
10
13 15 Callimachus and I must be surrendered to him, Callisthenes, Reginald and Kliomenes must be freed, else Victoria would be subjected to fire and the sword.
Details
10
14 7 The rendezvous was supposedly to have taken place, we had learned from Callisthenes, at the holding of Policrates.
Details
10
15 9 "Surely they should come forth, with gifts, and their daughters garlanded, with songs of welcome, to pacify us," said Callisthenes.
Details
10
15 39 "I had hoped there would be resistance," said Callisthenes.
Details
10
15 41 "Nor is there now," said Callisthenes.
Details
10
15 44 "And never before," said Callisthenes, "have the cowards of Victoria had this much reason to be so fearful.
Details
10
15 48 "Yes," said Callisthenes.
Details
10
15 50 "Precede me," said Callisthenes.
Details
10
16 48 "Back to the ships!" called Callisthenes.
Details
10
16 56 Policrates himself ran past me, and Kliomenes and Callisthenes.
Details
10
16 87 "Extinguish the fires!" cried Callisthenes.
Details
10
16 224 They must needs be the fleet which Callisthenes had commanded, and had withdrawn to Port Cos, not permitting them to engage in the battle at the chain.
Details
10
16 259 Behind him was Callisthenes.
Details
10
16 261 Policrates and Callisthenes drew their swords.
Details
10
16 265 Policrates and Callisthenes, white-faced, regarded him.
Details
10
16 421 "Where are Policrates and Callisthenes?" I asked.
Details
10
16 538 There, lying together, stripped, bloody and trussed, were Policrates and Callisthenes.
Details
10
16 542 I did not envy Policrates or Callisthenes, nor Kliomenes, nor Ragnar Voskjard.
Details
10
20 334 I assumed, with the fall of Callisthenes, that the mantle and helmet of the first captain would surely devolve upon him.
Details
10
20 370 Policrates, Kliomenes and Callisthenes, and such men, branded and collared, would soon be owned slaves, laboring for masters.
Details
10
20 1175 "Are you not to return to Port Cos, to replace Callisthenes, to become High Captain?" "That post is yours, my friend, Calliodorus," said Glyco.

29 1062 "Callisthenes approaches," said the fellow holding his arm.
Details
10
29 1096 It had been the good fortune of Callisthenes, Alcinous and Portus, it seemed, not to have been in the meadow earlier.
Details
10
29 1254 It was Callisthenes, he who had come earlier, from the wagon, who had been ordered to return to it.
Details
10
29 1264 "What was the nature of their wounds?" "By the sword," said Callisthenes, breathing heavily.
Details
10
29 1265 "The sword!" "They were set upon in stealth?" "From the nature of their wounds it would seem they were attacked frontally," said Callisthenes.
Details
10
29 1268 "I think, one," said Callisthenes.
Details
10
29 1271 "I do not know," said Callisthenes.
Details
10
29 1276 "The wound of Alcinous was deft, lateral and to the heart," said Callisthenes.
Details
10
29 1282 "No," said Callisthenes.
Details
10
29 1284 "Gone," said Callisthenes.
Details
10
29 1288 "The wounds of Alcinous and Portus were frontal wounds," said Callisthenes.
Details
10
29 1300 "Callisthenes?" asked Fulvius.
Details
10
29 1319 Angrily the small fellow hurled his purse to the blanket, shouldered his pack, and hurried from the meadow, going in the direction opposite to that from which Callisthenes had come.
Details
10
29 1336 "I did not know there were such things," said Callisthenes.
Details
10
29 1345 They then set out in the direction from which Callisthenes had come.
Details
10
29 1438 "Doubtless," said Callisthenes.
Details
10
29 1440 "Perhaps it is just as well," said Callisthenes.
Details
10
29 1442 "I trust that is true," said Callisthenes.
Details
10
29 1444 "It is a fine blade," said Callisthenes.
Details
10
29 1446 "Perhaps," said Callisthenes.
Details
10
29 1450 "Perhaps," said Callisthenes.
Details
10
29 1452 "Perhaps," said Callisthenes.
Details
10
29 1456 "Coffle the sluts," said Fulvius to Callisthenes.
Details
10
29 1497 Callisthenes was to one side.
Details
10
29 1502 I heard, too, to my left, and behind me, the blade of Callisthenes leave its sheath.
Details
10
29 1520 "His features are well concealed," said Callisthenes.
Details
10
29 1522 "Callisthenes to my left, Sempronius on the right".
Details
10
29 1528 Both Callisthenes and Sempronius, after having been arrested for a moment, startled, almost in shock, at the abruptness, the swiftness, of the stranger's attack, hurried toward the swordsmen, but then they stopped.
Details
10
29 1539 The stranger had not permitted them to take him between them, Fulvius engaging him, Callisthenes and Sempronius seeking their openings from the sides.
Details
10
29 1550 The stranger motioned with his sword that Callisthenes and Sempronius should move together.
Details
10
29 1577 It was only the swords of Callisthenes and Sempronius which separated him from me.
Details
10
29 1583 Callisthenes, first, then Sempronius, hurled their swords, blade first, into the earth at their feet.
Details
10
29 1586 He motioned Callisthenes and Sempronius away from their weapons.
Details
10
29 1587 Callisthenes, I suspect, was not a fine swordsman.
Details
10
29 1591 He ordered Callisthenes and Sempronius to stand to the side.
Details
10
29 1613 In this time he had walked Callisthenes and Sempronius before him, back toward the trees, in which direction, it seemed, lay the slave wagon.
Details
10
29 1617 Sempronius and Callisthenes first busied themselves, under the stranger's supervision, with burying what humans lay about.
Details
10
29 1636 "For ourselves," said Sempronius, indicating himself and Callisthenes.
Details
10
29 1640 Sempronius and Callisthenes looked at one another.
Details
10
29 1645 I was fed by Sempronius, Tela by Callisthenes.
Details
10
29 1647 After we had been fed, and Callisthenes and Sempronius, too, had partaken of food, the stranger directed them to put us in coffle, with the exception of Tupita.
Details
10
29 1655 And Mina was first on the coffle! How proud she seemed! Look at her, so beautiful, so proud to be first! Callisthenes and Sempronius supported Mirus between them, and helped him toward the woods.
Details
10
29 1658 He paused, on his way, to pick up the swords of Callisthenes and Sempronius.
Details
10
30 36 About the fire, were the stranger, still masked, and, unarmed, Callisthenes and Sempronius.
Details
10
30 53 Callisthenes had similarly put nourishment in the mouth of Tela, even as she was at the rail, neck-roped there.
Details
10
30 54 I had wondered if the stranger had permitted Callisthenes and Sempronius to feed us, half-naked slaves, in order to have them in proximity to us, whom they might not touch, as a torture for them, Gorean males.
Details
10
30 69 Sempronius had been permitted earlier in the evening to feed the slave Tuka, as Callisthenes had Tela.
Details
10
30 75 I heard Tela, under the touch of Callisthenes, cry out, softly, to my right.
Details
10
30 100 I heard Tela, in a moment, begging to be freed of the bracelets, that she might hold Callisthenes.
