10	1	The Council of Captains I took my seat in the Council of the Captains of Port Kar.	10
10	11	The Ubars were represented on the council, to which they belonged as being themselves Captains, by five empty thrones, sitting before the semicircles of curule chairs on which reposed the captains.	10
10	136	The approximately one hundred and twenty captains of the Council of the Captains of Port Kar have, pledged to their personal service, some thousand ships.	10
10	138	Beyond these ships there are some twenty-five hundred ships which are owned by some fifteen or sixteen hundred minor captains of the city, not wealthy enough to sit on the Council of Captains.	10
11	154	The ships of the captains, returning, would further guarantee their power in the city, their crews being applicable where the captains might choose.	10
17	10	Our fleet was further supplemented by some fourteen hundred ships furnished by private captains, minor captains of Port Kar, most of which were round ships.	10
9	56	It was well known among the pirate captains of Port Kar, scourge of gleaming Thassa.	10
9	101	Nominally beneath these Ubars, but in fact much independent of them, is an oligarchy of merchant princes, Captains, as they call themselves, who, in council, maintain and manage the great arsenal, building and renting ships and fittings, themselves controlling the grain fleet, the oil fleet, the sla...	10
9	117	I knew one of these mercenary captains, Ha-Keel, murderer, once of Ar, whom I had met in Turia, in the house of Saphrar, a merchant.	10
10	8	Accordingly I, who had been Tarl Cabot, once a warrior of Ko-ro-ba, the Towers of the Morning, sat now in the council of these captains, merchant and pirate princes, the high oligarchs of squalid, malignant Port Kar, Scourge of Gleaming Thassa.	10
10	15	There are commonly about one hundred and twenty captains who form the council, sometimes a few more, sometimes a few less.	10
10	29	The "Stone" of Port Kar, tested against the official "Stone" at the Sardar, reposed in a special fortified building in the great arsenal, which complex was administered by agents of the Council of Captains.	10
10	46	Although there were some one hundred and twenty captains in the council, seldom more than seventy or eighty, either in person or by proxy, made an appearance at its meetings.	10
10	59	Though his helmet still bore the two golden slashes, it now bore as well a crest of sleen hair, permitted only to captains.	10
10	63	Many of the captains, incidentally, were client to one Ubar or another.	10
10	68	He may have seen me that night, among the rencers on the island, but he did not place me, one who now sat on the Council of the Captains of Port Kar.	10
10	85	There are the five flags of the Ubars, and many flags for many captains.	10
10	121	Captains, commonly, do not eat with their men.	10
10	122	My attention was returned now to the meeting of the Council of the Captains of Port Kar.	10
10	159	The wages of a sail-maker, incidentally, are four copper tarn disks per day, those of a fine shipwright, hired by the Council of Captains, as much as a golden tarn disk per day.	10
10	170	The Council of Captains respects those who build and outfit ships.	10
10	180	I would note, of course, that these weaknesses, or virtues, of the men of the arsenal are, of tradition, welcomed by the Council of Captains; without them the arsenal could not be as efficiently and economically managed as it is.	10
10	276	Those I did not wish, for one reason or another, to free, I sold to other captains, or exchanged them for slaves whom I might free, several of whom, when freed, also agreed to serve with me.	10
10	284	Certain other captains, I noted, were now also experimenting, on certain of their ships, with free crews.	10
10	285	My attention was then returned to the meeting of the Council of Captains.	10
10	295	The location of all such trees is kept in a book available to the Council of Captains.	10
10	335	At that moment a man burst into the hall in which was sitting the Council of Captains.	10
11	1	The Crest of Sleen Hair The Captains leaped from their chairs, crying out.	10
11	24	Then, behind him, in groups of four and five, crying out, many bleeding from wounds, weapons brandished, and sometimes bloodied, there came those captains who could.	10
11	35	More captains, their back to the room, fighting, falling, were retreating through the door.	10
11	36	They were the last of the captains.	10
11	38	Its great weight, to screams of horror, fell crushing upon men who, with shields and swords, were closely pressing the captains.	10
11	40	"Bring curule chairs!" I ordered the captains.	10
11	51	"Can you hold this door?" I asked the captains, and the scribes and pages there.	10
11	55	"Secure that door," I told four of the captains.	10
11	57	I myself, taking with me two captains, went to a rear corner of the great chamber, whence, via a spiraling stairwell, the roof of the hall of the council might be attained.	10
11	60	"There are no ships from Cos or Tyros in the harbor," said one of the captains standing near me.	10
11	63	"Those wharves," I said, "are those of Chung and Eteocles?" "Yes," said one of the captains.	10
11	86	"It appears," said one of the captains at my side, "that Henrius Sevarius is not yet Ubar of Port Kar".	10
11	93	I could see, even at the distance, leaping from the prow of the ship to the tiles of the piazza, running across the large, oblique-looking, colored squares toward the Hall of the Council of Captains, the great Thurnock, with his yellow bow, followed by Clitus, with his net and trident, and by Tab, w...	10
11	113	They had surely served to draw the captains of Port Kar into the ambush prepared for them outside the hall of the council.	10
11	116	I, and the three other captains, stood on the sloping roof of the hall of the council and watched the ships burning at the wharves.	10
11	118	I turned to one of the captains.	10
11	120	Also have captains ascertain the military situation in the city.	10
11	122	"But surely Cos and Tyros—" said one of the Captains.	10
11	131	"And summon the four captains," I said, "who are Chung, Eteocles, Nigel and Sullius Maximus".	10
11	133	"The captains," I said.	10
11	135	Summon them as captains".	10
11	138	"If they do not come," I told him, "tell them they will no longer be captains in the eyes of the council".	10
11	139	The captains looked at me.	10
11	141	The captains looked at one another, and nodded.	10
11	143	The power of the captains had been little diminished.	10
11	147	The ships of the captains were usually moored, beyond this, within the city, in the mooring lakes fronting on their holdings and walled.	10
11	159	Further, if necessary, the Council of Captains, with its power, might intercept and impound their ships, as they returned, one by one.	10
11	167	The council, I expected, itself composed of captains, men much like myself, would provide a political structure within which my ambitions and projects might well prosper.	10
11	172	I turned and faced the captains.	10
11	173	"Until the twentieth hour, Captains," said I.	10
11	179	Above us, in the chamber of the Council of Captains, I could hear feet moving about on the wooden floor, chairs scraping.	10
11	196	Some of those who had started these fires, who had been apprehended, now, under the torches, screamed on the racks beneath the chamber of the Council of Captains.	10
11	205	Men of the captains maintain their watch.	10
11	232	"They were hired by the men of Henrius Sevarius, some to slay captains, some to fire the wharves and arsenal".	10
11	241	He had been one who had, with his crossbow, fired on the captains as they had run from the council.	10
11	308	Then Samos, who was senior captain of the Council of Captains of Port Kar, turned and left.	10
11	315	The Hall of the Council, this night, was surrounded by the men of the captains, who, too, patrolled the rooftops and the walks beside the canals for a full pasang on all sides.	10
11	328	"The captains of the council," said Samos, dryly, "have some one thousand ships pledged to their personal service.	10
11	335	"I refer to the ships of the minor captains, in the number of better than twenty-five hundred!" "In the streets," said Samos, "I have heard the cry 'Power to the council!'" "Proclaim Henrius Sevarius sole Ubar," said Lysias numbly, "and your lives will be spared, and you will be granted amnesty".	10
11	354	"Glorious Captains," said Samos.	10
11	363	Even the page boys and the scribes, and minor captains, in the back of the room and about the sides, cried out these words.	10
11	372	"I now ask the table scribe," said Samos, "to call the roll of captains".	10
11	380	And almost every one of the captains in that council drew their weapon, as had Samos, and placed it across their knees.	10
11	405	There were some abstentions, and some nays, perhaps from those who feared the power of one or another of the Ubars, but the decision on the whole was clear, a devastating of the claims of the Ubars and the, in effect, enthronement of the Council of Captains as sovereign in the city.	10
11	409	One of these studies was to be a census of ships and captains, the results of which were to be private to the council.	10
11	415	One might not always be able to count on the rallying of the men of individual captains to protect the council, as had been the case this afternoon.	10
11	418	It was shortly past daybreak, and the gray light of Port Kar's dawn was filtering in through the high, narrow windows of the Council of Captains.	10
11	424	His words received grunts of affirmation from the assembled captains.	10
11	428	The captains looked at one another.	10
11	430	I saw one or two of the captains raise their heads from the arms of their curule chairs.	10
11	449	"No!" came the cry from the assembled captains.	10
11	452	The captains looked at one another in puzzlement, and then they began to smile, and then several laughed.	10
11	462	The captains looked at me, dumbfounded.	10
11	466	Several of the captains then laughed.	10
11	476	The captains muttered angrily.	10
11	480	"Then," said one of the captains, "they must intend to bring their fleets against us".	10
11	482	There was a grunt of agreement from the captains.	10
11	484	"You speak quickly," he said, "for one who is new to the Council of Captains".	10
11	496	The captains looked at one another.	10
11	503	Peace, my captains, might well prove profitable".	10
11	508	The captains murmured among themselves.	10
11	526	The captains looked at one another, and grinned.	10
11	544	He was senior captain of the Council of Captains.	10
11	550	I had not realized until then that I was valued in the Council of Captains.	10
11	551	Antisthenes spoke, who had been first on the roll of captains.	10
11	556	There are merchants of other cities, voyagers and captains, known to us, who will, for their fees, gladly conduct this business".	10
11	560	"I am, of course, highly honored," I began, "that noble Samos should think of me, that he should nominate me, doubtless the lowliest of the captains here assembled, for a post of such distinction, that of bearing the peace of Port Kar to her hereditary enemies Cos and Tyros".	10
11	561	The captains looked at one another, grinning.	10
11	575	The captains regarded one another.	10
11	586	The captains said nothing.	10
11	601	I asked myself if Samos thought he was so easily rid of me, one who might challenge him, senior captain, in the council of the captains of Port Kar.	10
11	609	And then I turned to the captains on the tiers.	10
12	4	Until the formation of the council guard, the captains and their men would have for their responsibility the maintaining of watches throughout the city.	10
12	88	"Of the Council of Captains?" he asked.	10
13	12	I put to them, the Ubars of Cos and Tyros, as well as I could, the proposals of the Council of Captains of Port Kar, that there would be concord, and doubtless an opening of commerce, between the two Ubarates and the maligned city in the Vosk's delta, my own Port Kar.	10
13	188	"I trust, too," said Chenbar, "that you will not be the last of the captains of Port Kar to pull an oar on the round ships of Cos or Tyros".	10
13	229	By the eighth hour various captains of round ships had arrived and begun to haggle with the slave master over the prices of the oarsmen.	10
13	241	"Let me test your grip," said one of the captains.	10
14	354	"If these figures are correct," I said to Clitus, "as doubtless they are, we and the Captains of Port Kar are today the masters of much treasure".	10
14	463	And, of tarn ships, I have one captured, your flagship, and, from the reports of my captains, some eighteen or twenty have been seriously damaged or sunk.	10
15	15	The ships, in a splendid, long line, filing behind me, the Dorna first, then the tarn ships, then the round ships, under oars, moved slowly through the city, following the triumphal circuit of the great canal, passing even before the chamber of the Council of Captains.	10
15	87	"When the treasures have been checked, tallied, and appraised, which should take some four or five weeks," I told her, "you, with your maidens, in the chains of slave girls, will be displayed, together with samples of, and full accountings of, the other treasures, before the Council of Captains".	10
15	92	"What will you do with us after we have been displayed before the Council of Captains?" she asked.	10
15	102	In this very afternoon the formal presentations and accountings of the victory and its plunder had taken place in the chamber of the Council of Captains.	10
15	107	And now, in this very afternoon, my glories had been climaxed in the chamber of the Council of Captains, in which had taken place the formal presentations and accountings of the victory and its plunder, in which had taken place the commendation of the Council for my deeds and the awarding of its mos...	10
15	108	Even now, in my feast of celebration, hours after the meeting of the council, I still wore about my neck the broad scarlet ribbon with its pendant medallion of gold, bearing the design of a lateen-rigged tarn ship, the initials in cursive Gorean script of Council of Captains of Port Kar in a half cu...	10
15	249	I fingered the broad scarlet ribbon and the medallion, pendant about my neck, bearing its tarn ship and initials, those of the Council of Captains of Port Kar.	10
15	259	They had not in themselves the stuff of captains.	10
15	346	I fingered the golden medallion with the lateen-rigged tarn ship, and the initials of the Council of Captains of Port Kar in its half-curve beneath it.	10
15	481	This afternoon I had presented her, with her maidens, in the chains of slave girls, together with portions of the treasures of the treasure fleet, and accountings of the balance thereof, before the Council of Captains of Port Kar.	10
15	486	This afternoon, after returning from the Council of Captains, I had had her marked and collared.	10
15	507	I had also had her maidens marked and collared, following the meeting of the Council of Captains.	10
15	649	"Admiral!" I clutched the medallion about my neck, with its tarn ship and the initials of the Council of Captains of Port Kar.	10
15	817	"You, too," she said, "wear a collar!" I tore away from my throat the broad scarlet ribbon, with its pendant medallion, with the tarn ship and the initials of the Council of Captains of Port Kar.	10
16	142	"And captains are fleeing! All who can are leaving Port Kar!" I looked at him.	10
16	153	I picked up the broad scarlet ribbon, with its medallion, that with the tarn ship and the initials of the Council of Captains of Port Kar.	10
16	178	"What are we to do?" asked one of my captains.	10
16	211	"Many of the captains," said another officer, "are already weighing anchor for the northern islands".	10
16	297	"To the Council of Captains," I told them.	10
16	309	The ship nosed through the canals of Port Kar toward the hall of the Council of Captains.	10
16	338	"I think to the Council of Captains," said one of the men on the walk.	10
16	341	I saw bundles thrown down and arms unsheathed, and behind us, in throngs of thousands now, came the people of Port Kar, following us to the great piazza before the hall of the Council of Captains.	10
16	342	Even before the man in the bow had tied the tharlarion-prowed longboat to a mooring post at the piazza, I had leaped up to the tiles and was striding, robes swirling, across the squares of the broad piazza toward the great door of the hall of the Council of Captains.	10
16	348	Of the usual seventy or eighty, or so, captains of the approximately one hundred and twenty entitled to sit in the council, only some thirty or forty were present.	10
16	352	The captains sat silently.	10
16	354	Two more captains rose to their feet and left the room.	10
16	362	The captains looked up.	10
16	364	"How many of you," asked I of the captains, "stand ready to undertake the defense of your city?" Dark, long-haired Bejar was there.	10
16	367	"Most of the captains have already fled.	10
16	368	And hundreds of the lesser captains.	10
16	381	Through the thick walls, and the high, narrow windows of the hall of the Council of Captains, there came a great, rumbling cry, the thunderous mixture of roiling shouts.	10
16	393	The captains looked at me.	10
16	395	Then the other captains, too, laughed.	10
16	400	Slaves are not permitted in the hall of the captains.	10
16	417	"Captains," said I, "accompany me to the steps of the hall".	10
16	418	They followed me, and I left the chamber of the council, and, in a few moments, stood on the top of the broad marbled steps leading up to the hall of the Council of Captains.	10
17	11	Beyond this, we had three hundred and fifty ships furnished by the captains of the council who had not, prior to the time of the showing of the Home Stone, fled.	10
17	13	My own ships counted in with these of the captains of the council.	10
17	86	Hopefully, the terror of being taken in the flank might cause many captains, or even Chenbar himself, to have the fleet put about, and, if so, this would make their ships the most vulnerable to our own.	10
17	151	Surely many captains, of the council and otherwise, had done so, their holds filled with their chained slaves and secured treasures.	10
17	293	"Of all the tarnsmen in Port Kar," I said, "and of all the captains, you alone have accepted the risks of this venture, the use of tarns at sea".	10
18	117	How else, I asked myself, had he been able to take an oar on the longboat in the canals when I had gone to the hall of the Council of Captains, or been able to board the Dorna, or taken his place in the longboat that had ferried me to the round ship? I, too, was not unfond of the boy.	10
18	676	"The Council of Captains of Port Kar," said Samos, "has business with you".	10
18	831	"Why!" "Samos," said I, "was it from you that the message came, months ago, which I received in the Council of Captains, seeking to speak with me?" "Yes," said Samos.	10
18	833	"The dungeon of the hall of captains scarcely seemed the place to discuss the business of Priest-Kings".	10

1	22	Indeed, he was First Slaver of Port Kar, and First Captain in its Council of Captains, which council, since the downfall of the four Ubars is sovereign in Port Kar.	10
1	23	I, too, was a member of the Council of Captains, Bosk, of the House of Bosk, of Port Kar.	10
3	44	I supposed, did they pay their wharfage and declare some sort of business, the captains of those ships were as little interrogated as I.	10
3	51	In Port Kar, my city, the utilization of the facilities of the port is regulated by a board of four magistrates, the Port Consortium, which reports directly to the Council of Captains, which, since the downfall of the warring Ubars, is sovereign in the city.	10
