Chapter # Sentence # Quote Confidence
8 266 Tuka, I knew, hated Elizabeth, and Elizabeth, I knew, reciprocated the emotion with vehemence.

10
11 273 "You," said Kamchak, glaring at Elizabeth, "you stupid little barbarian—you cannot even dance!" Elizabeth looked down, confused, rather shamed.
Details
10
12 51 The two girls were there, and Aphris was kneeling behind Elizabeth, combing Elizabeth's hair.
Details
10
23 206 Aphris had, according to the woman, fallen into the hands of the Paravaci who had looted Kamchak's wagon; Elizabeth's fate she did not know; I gathered, of course, from the fact that Elizabeth had been sent to another wagon that Kamchak had sold her.
Details
10
27 18 Beside me, clad not Kajir but in the brief leather of one of the Wagon Girls, though collared, stood Elizabeth Cardwell; similarly attired and collared, I noted, standing a bit behind Harold of the Tuchuks, I saw the fiery Hereena; she was perhaps the only one of all the girls of the Wagon Peoples t...

28 1 Elizabeth and I Depart from the Wagon Peoples Tuka, the slave girl, did not fare well at the hands of Elizabeth Cardwell.
Details
10
6 50 "My name is Elizabeth Cardwell," she said.
Details
10
6 93 Elizabeth Cardwell, I decided, would indeed bring a high price.
Details
10
6 108 "Tell them my name is Elizabeth Cardwell," she said.
Details
10
6 161 He took the skin of wine from the boy and bit out the horn plug; he then, with the wineskin on his shoulder, held back the head of Elizabeth Cardwell with one hand and with the other shoved the bone nozzle of the skin between her teeth; he tipped the skin and the girl, half choking, swallowed wine; ...
Details
10
6 163 Dazed, exhausted, covered with sweat, dust on her face and legs, wine on her body, Elizabeth Cardwell, her wrists thonged behind her and her throat bound to a lance, stood captive before Kamchak of the Tuchuks.
Details
10
6 175 Elizabeth Cardwell had learned her first Gorean.
Details
10
7 48 The man-at-arms placed Elizabeth Cardwell before us, and Kutaituchik, and drew away the pelt of the scarlet larl.
Details
10
7 49 Elizabeth Cardwell had been cleaned and her hair combed.
Details
10
7 53 Elizabeth Cardwell, though she did not know it, knelt before us in the position of the Pleasure Slave.
Details
10
7 67 The interrogation of Elizabeth Cardwell took hours.
Details
10
7 72 During all this time, and torches had been brought, the hours of the night being burned away, Elizabeth Cardwell was not permitted to move, but must needs retain the position of the Pleasure Slave, knees properly placed, back straight, head high, the gleaming chain of the Sirik dangling from the Tur...

10
7 86 It seemed to me, from what I had learned, that there was no particular reason why Elizabeth Cardwell, and not one of Earth's countless others, had been selected to wear the message collar.
Details
10
7 110 Elizabeth had looked, tears almost in her eyes, at the department head, but he seemed suddenly to her soft, pudgy, distant, sweating, nothing.
Details
10
7 112 Elizabeth faced the tall, strange man.
Details
10
7 124 And Elizabeth Cardwell walked proudly, angrily, to the far side of the room, wheeled there, faced the man, and approached him, eyes taunting, a smile of contempt playing about her lips.
Details
10
7 137 "I'm Elizabeth Cardwell," she had cried.
Details
10
7 147 But how was it that Elizabeth Cardwell, of Earth, wore a Turian message collar? Kamchak drew the quiva from his belt and approached the girl.
Details
10
7 201 "Do you think Priest-Kings would use a Turian message collar?" He pointed his broad finger at Elizabeth Cardwell.
Details
10
7 225 Kutaituchik, Kamchak and I then regarded Elizabeth Cardwell.
Details
10
7 236 With horror Elizabeth Cardwell lifted her head from the pelt and regarded her captors.
Details
10
7 252 "Yes," wept Elizabeth Cardwell, "yes—I beg to be a slave girl".
Details
10
7 253 Perhaps in that moment Elizabeth Cardwell recalled the strange man, so fearsome, gray of face with eyes like glass, who had so examined her on Earth, before whom she had stood as though on a block, unknowingly being examined for her fitness to bear the message collar of Turia.
Details
10
7 261 Elizabeth Cardwell took the meat in her two hands, confined before her by slave bracelets and the chain of the Sirik, and, bending her head, the hair falling forward, ate it.
Details
10
8 58 I heard Elizabeth Cardwell's cry of joy as she leaped into the air, clumsy in the furs, clapping her hands.
Details
10
8 72 Elizabeth cried out again, with pleasure, for she was of the wagon of Kamchak and Tarl Cabot.
Details
10
8 77 "Forgive me, Master," said Elizabeth Cardwell.
Details
10
8 79 I was pleased with how well, in the past months, Elizabeth had done with the language.
Details
10
8 80 Of course, Kamchak had rented three Turian girls, slaves, to train her; they had done so, binding her wrists and leading her about the wagons, teaching her the words for things, beating her with switches when she made mistakes; Elizabeth had learned quickly.
Details
10
8 82 It had been hard for Elizabeth Cardwell, particularly the first weeks.
Details
10
8 87 Kamchak, that night, chained Elizabeth Cardwell in his wagon, rather than beneath it to the wheel, running a short length of chain from a slave ring set in the floor of the wagon box to the collar of her Sirik.
Details
10
8 104 He then took Elizabeth Cardwell in his left arm and with his right hand gave her the drink.
Details
10
8 108 I supposed that on the morrow Kamchak would call for the Tuchuk Iron Master, to brand what he called his little barbarian; the brand of the Tuchuk slave, incidentally, is not the same as that generally used in the cities, which, for girls, is the first letter of the expression Kajira in cursive scri...
Details
10
8 109 In the morning I awakened to find Elizabeth sitting, red-eyed, at the side of the wagon, leaning back against one of the poles that supported the wagon hides, wrapped in the pelt of the red larl.
Details
10
8 117 I saw now, however, that Elizabeth Cardwell was strong, that she would not go mad, that she was determined to live.
Details
10
8 123 When Kamchak rolled out of his furs Elizabeth, involuntarily, shrank back, until the pole would permit her to withdraw no further.
Details
10
8 135 Elizabeth Cardwell, of course, knew nothing of these things.
Details
10
8 138 Kamchak snapped his fingers and pointed to the rug, Elizabeth then knelt to him, clutching the pelt about her, and put her head to his feet.
Details
10
8 140 To my surprise Kamchak, for no reason that he explained to me, did not clothe Elizabeth Cardwell Kajir, much to the irritation of other slave girls about the camp.
Details
10
8 145 I gathered that girls such as Elizabeth Cardwell, used to buying machine-made, presewn garments on Earth, were not as skilled as they might be in certain of the homely crafts which used to be associated with homemaking, crafts which might, upon occasion, it seemed, come in handy.
Details
10
8 149 "But it was the length of the leather dresses of the Tuchuk women," Elizabeth had dared to protest.
Details
10
8 174 Elizabeth Cardwell never again brought a half-filled dung sack to the wagon of Kamchak of the Tuchuks.
Details
10
8 204 To my amazement Elizabeth Cardwell, too, seemed rather pleased with the whole thing, though for what reason I could scarcely understand.
Details
10
8 263 Indeed, it had been from that warrior that Kamchak had rented the girls who had dragged Elizabeth Cardwell about the wagons, teaching her Gorean with thong and switch.
Details
10
8 267 Tuka, in the matter of teaching Elizabeth the language, had been especially cruel.
Details
10
8 268 Elizabeth, bound, could not resist and did she try, Tuka's companions, the others of her wagon, would leap upon her with their switches flailing.
Details
10
8 270 Elizabeth Cardwell, at least until now, had escaped, as Tuka had not, the brand, the nose ring and collar.
Details
10
8 271 Elizabeth was clearly some sort of favorite in her wagon.
Details
10
8 274 Lastly, but perhaps not least, Elizabeth Cardwell had been given for her garment the pelt of a larl, while she, Tuka, must go about the camp like all the others, clad Kajir.
Details
10
8 280 She would run well, hating Elizabeth or not.
Details
10
8 283 He pointed his lance to Elizabeth Cardwell.
Details
10
8 285 Elizabeth did so and stood before us in the pelt of the larl, with the other girls.
Details
10
8 294 Tuchuk girls, Elizabeth and Tuka, would run for the Kassars; the two Kassar girls would run for Kamchak and myself; naturally each slave does her best for her master, attempting to evade his competitor.
Details
10
8 347 At a gesture from Kamchak Elizabeth Cardwell stepped into the circle of the whip.
Details
10
8 355 Elizabeth Cardwell, barefoot, in the larl's pelt, streaked for the black lance in the distance.
Details
10
8 361 At the count of fifteen, with incredible speed, Albrecht, bola now whirling, spurred silently after the fleeing Elizabeth Cardwell.
Details
10
8 363 It was hardly more than five or six beats, it seemed, before Elizabeth, her wrists lashed cruelly to her ankles, was thrown to the grass at the judge's feet.
Details
10
8 366 Weeping Elizabeth jerked and pulled at the thongs restraining her, helpless.
Details
10
8 369 Elizabeth moaned.
Details
10
8 374 Elizabeth was silent and, fighting her tears, lay quietly waiting to be freed.
Details
10
8 462 Albrecht and Conrad had come for a simple purpose, to best a Tuchuk and, in the process, pick up a girl or two; Elizabeth Cardwell, of course, was the only one we had on hand.
Details
10
8 480 Even if by good fortune I managed to tie Albrecht, Elizabeth would still belong to the Kassars, for Conrad had a clear win over Kamchak.
Details
10
8 513 Elizabeth Cardwell was leaping up and down clapping her hands.
Details
10
8 528 Elizabeth Cardwell, however, to my surprise, seemed furious.
Details
10
8 558 "I do not want to stand for him!" cried out Elizabeth Cardwell.
Details
10
8 560 Elizabeth Cardwell took her position, standing sideways, the tospit held delicately between her teeth.
Details
10
8 577 Elizabeth, unmoving, faced me, some fifty yards away.
Details
10
8 582 Elizabeth stood facing me, not frightened, but seemingly rather put upon.
Details
10
8 587 A cry went up from the crowd as I passed Elizabeth, the tospit on the point of the lance.
Details
10
8 591 I turned to see Elizabeth waver, and almost faint, but she did not do so.
Details
10
8 611 The two girls, while Elizabeth Cardwell looked on angrily, knelt before Kamchak and myself, lowering their heads, lifting and extending their arms, wrists crossed.
Details
10
8 617 "I do not know what we need with all these slaves," Elizabeth Cardwell was saying.
Details
10
8 619 Elizabeth Cardwell, for some reason, looked at me in fury, rather than Kamchak.
Details
10
8 624 Elizabeth stifled a cry of rage.
Details
10
9 94 Indeed, to the annoyance of Elizabeth Cardwell, who had spent her nights under the wagon in the last weeks, there were two such in our own wagon, the girl Dina, whom I had snared in the contests of the bola, and her companion, the fine wench who had bitten the neck of Kamchak's kaiila and had attemp...
Details
10
9 97 "She has fat ankles," Elizabeth Cardwell had observed.
Details
10
9 99 "If you like fat ankles," Elizabeth had said, turning about, perhaps inadvertently revealing the delightful slimness of her own ankles, and leaving the wagon.
Details
10
9 144 Elizabeth Cardwell's being permitted the pelt of the red larl was, as you have doubtless understood, unusual amongst the wagons.
Details
10
10 15 Elizabeth Cardwell, barefoot, in the larl's pelt, walked beside Kamchak's stirrup.
Details
10
10 106 Elizabeth Cardwell, who had been fixing the fire in the wagon, had been startled when I had returned without Dina, but had not dared to ask what had been done with her.
Details
10
10 110 Elizabeth regarded me with horror.
Details
10
10 111 "She was a person—" said Elizabeth, "—a human person—" "No!" said Kamchak, giving her head a shake.
Details
10
10 112 "An animal! A slave!" Then he added, giving her head another shake, "Like yourself!" Elizabeth looked at him with dismay.
Details
10
10 114 Elizabeth's face suddenly seemed terrified.
Details
10
10 118 Now, again, Elizabeth, visibly shaken, ill, realized that she might, should it please Kamchak's whims, be sold or exchanged with the same ease as a saddle or a hunting sleen.
Details
10
10 125 Kamchak! Free a slave! And, I told myself, even if I myself owned Elizabeth, and not Kamchak, I could not free her—for what would it be to free her? If she approached Turia she would fall slave to the first patrol that leashed and hooded her; if she tried to stay among the wagons, some young ...
Details
10
10 130 No, it was best that Elizabeth Cardwell believe I had callously sold the lovely Dina of Turia.
Details
10
10 133 Elizabeth shook with terror and put her head to the rug at Kamchak's feet.
Details
10
10 143 Elizabeth said nothing, her head down.
Details
10
10 227 Elizabeth Cardwell screamed, throwing her hands before her face.
Details
10
10 230 I wheeled the kaiila, looking for Elizabeth Cardwell, who, afoot, would be slain almost before the tharlarion had crossed the lines of the stakes.
Details
10
10 238 Elizabeth Cardwell's knees seemed suddenly weak but she staggered back to us.
Details
10
10 243 Elizabeth looked up at us, puzzled.
Details
10
11 114 Elizabeth Cardwell, unbound, had already taken her position on the other side of Kamchak's kaiila, beside his right stirrup.
Details
10
11 129 Elizabeth Cardwell, on the other hand, I was pleased to see, ran well, breathing evenly, showing few signs of fatigue.
Details
10
11 140 Elizabeth Cardwell was removing the thong from the girl's neck and unbinding her wrists.
Details
10
11 144 She turned her eyes on Elizabeth, whom she seemed to see then for the first time.
Details
10
11 153 I had wondered why Kamchak had not treated Elizabeth Cardwell as any other enslaved wench of Tuchuks.
Details
10
11 163 "Please," said Elizabeth, "come away".
Details
10
11 166 But then, head in the air, she deigned to accompany Elizabeth from where we stood.
Details
10
11 172 She turned in fury and followed Elizabeth Cardwell away.
Details
10
11 200 Elizabeth had the meat roasted, though it was now considerably overdone.
Details
10
11 208 "Is anything wrong?" asked Elizabeth Cardwell.
Details
10
11 218 "Yes," said Elizabeth firmly.
Details
10
11 222 She cast an angry look at Elizabeth.
Details
10
11 227 "You were hours late," said Elizabeth.
Details
10
11 230 "I shall roast fresh meat," said Elizabeth, getting up, and she did so.
Details
10
11 252 Elizabeth cast a grateful look at him.
Details
10
11 256 "Master," added Elizabeth, with a withering look at Aphris, who smiled.
Details
10
11 261 "They were sold," Elizabeth informed Aphris.
Details
10
11 264 "I do not suppose I shall be fortunate enough to be sold?" "She would probably bring a high price," pointed out Elizabeth, hopefully.
Details
10
11 272 Elizabeth laughed and clapped her hands.
Details
10
11 284 Elizabeth was looking at me.
Details
10
11 290 "The Little Barbarian does not wish to become second girl in the wagon!" He gave Elizabeth's head a rough, affectionate shake.
Details
10
11 304 "This slave," she said, indicating Elizabeth, "would not give me anything to eat".
Details
10
11 305 "Kamchak must eat first, Slave," responded Elizabeth.
Details
10
11 314 Elizabeth had leaped up and so had I.
Details
10
11 319 I also sat down, and so, too, did Elizabeth Cardwell.
Details
10
11 323 He seemed satisfied that the wound was not serious, and picked up the piece of meat which he had dropped, which he tossed to Elizabeth, who, in silence, ate it.
Details
10
11 327 "Bring wine," he said to Elizabeth, who, her mouth filled with meat, went and fetched a small skin of wine and a cup, which she filled for him.
Details
10
11 357 Suddenly Elizabeth Cardwell said, perhaps unwisely, "You are cruel".
Details
10
11 378 When the girl had finished and Elizabeth had given her a dipper of water from the leather bucket that hung near the door, Aphris extended her wrists to Kamchak.
Details
10
12 15 In Turia I had learned nothing, unfortunately, of the answers to the mystery of the message collar—or to the appearance of Miss Elizabeth Cardwell on the southern plains of Gor.
Details
10
12 53 The pelt of the larl which Elizabeth wore had been freshly brushed.
Details
10
12 58 I could hear them move as she combed Elizabeth's hair.
Details
10
12 61 "Ow!" cried Elizabeth as Aphris' comb apparently suddenly caught in a snarl in her hair.
Details
10
12 64 Elizabeth turned her head over her shoulder.
Details
10
12 67 The comb caught in Elizabeth's hair again and she cried out.
Details
10
12 69 "Comb my hair, Slave," said Elizabeth, turning away.
Details
10
12 76 "Perhaps I should not go," Elizabeth was saying, "I would feel too sorry for the poor girl".
Details
10
12 79 I didn't really feel like telling Elizabeth that no one ever feels sorry for a wench from Port Kar.
Details
10
12 85 Elizabeth and Aphris leaped up to tend the pot outside.
Details
10
12 134 Elizabeth and Aphris entered, carrying the kettle between them, which they sat on the brass and copper grating over the fire bowl in the wagon.
Details
10
12 135 "Go ahead and ask him," prompted Elizabeth, "Slave".
Details
10
12 138 After we had eaten and the girls had eaten with us, there not being that night much time for observing the amenities, Elizabeth poked Aphris, "Ask him," she said.
Details
10
12 140 Elizabeth looked at Kamchak.
Details
10
12 143 "Aphris," said Elizabeth firmly.
Details
10
12 145 "Give him Ka-la-na wine," prompted Elizabeth.
Details
10
12 162 "If you do not ask him, I shall," said Elizabeth.
Details
10
12 164 "She found something today," said Elizabeth, "that someone had thrown away".
Details
10
12 184 Elizabeth clapped her hands with pleasure and began to consider the camisk.
Details
10
12 187 Then, delighted, Aphris, assisted by Elizabeth Cardwell, donned the yellow camisk.
Details
10
12 199 "Of course," she laughed, "for a Turian slave!" "We will be late for the performance," said Elizabeth, "if we do not hurry".
Details
10
12 201 "No," said Elizabeth, "I have decided to come".
Details
10
12 233 He had also parked Aphris on his right and Elizabeth on his left.
Details
10
12 234 I bit out the cork in the paga and passed it past Elizabeth to Kamchak, as courtesy demanded.
Details
10
12 235 About a third of the bottle was missing when Elizabeth, looking faint at having smelled the beverage, returned it to me.
Details
10
12 238 In a right-handed girl, such as either Aphris or Elizabeth, it locks on the right wrist and left ankle.
Details
10
12 245 Elizabeth Cardwell also had her head up, kneeling very straight, obviously not unconscious that she herself was the object of a look or two.
Details
10
12 258 That seemed to be an experience which she, no more than Elizabeth Cardwell, was not eager to repeat.
Details
10
12 260 We had slept late that day and finally when Kamchak managed to be up and around, after a late breakfast served rather slowly by Elizabeth, and had recollected Aphris and had opened the end of her sleeping quarters and she had crawled out backward and had begged, head to boot, to be allowed to draw w...
Details
10
12 269 This startled me, and startled Elizabeth as well.
Details
10
12 273 Suddenly Elizabeth was kneeling terribly straight, looking ahead, breathing very quickly.
Details
10
12 284 I turned to face Elizabeth.
Details
10
12 298 Kamchak reached across Elizabeth and dragged the paga bottle out of my hand.
Details
10
12 304 "Why?" I again asked Elizabeth.
Details
10
12 305 But Elizabeth, with her free left hand had seized the paga bottle from Kamchak, and, to his amazement, had thrown back her head and taken, without realizing the full import of her action, about five lusty, guzzling swallows of paga.
Details
10
12 315 "Yes," said Elizabeth, "better than Aphris".
Details
10
12 317 Elizabeth looked up at me.
Details
10
12 319 "Some men might like a barbarian girl," Elizabeth said.
Details
10
12 320 I hoisted Elizabeth back up on her knees.
Details
10
12 324 "Be quiet, Slave," said Elizabeth.
Details
10
12 334 "Nonsense," said Elizabeth, sleepily.
Details
10
12 336 "You only want to be First Girl," said Elizabeth.
Details
10
12 339 Elizabeth lifted her head from my shoulder and regarded me.
Details
10
12 341 "My name is Miss Elizabeth Cardwell, Mr.
Details
10
12 351 "Nonsense," said Elizabeth.
Details
10
12 354 "No," said Elizabeth.
Details
10
12 356 "Will the performance start soon?" asked Elizabeth of Kamchak.
Details
10
12 358 "I do not know," said Elizabeth, "if I should watch".
Details
10
12 360 "I suppose," said Elizabeth, "I could hop all the way on one foot".
Details
10
12 369 "No," said Elizabeth, "I will stay".
Details
10
12 371 "Yes," said Elizabeth, glowering, "if Master permits".
Details
10
12 373 "Thank you, Master," said Elizabeth politely, and once more put her head on my shoulder.
Details
10
12 382 I heard Kamchak hush up Aphris of Turia and he gave Elizabeth a poke in the ribs that she might bestir herself.
Details
10
12 389 Even Elizabeth had lifted her head now from my shoulder and was rising on her knees a bit for a clearer view.
Details
10
12 411 I saw that Aphris and Elizabeth were watching fascinated.
Details
10
12 425 "I never knew a woman," said Elizabeth, her eyes blazing, showing few signs of the paga, "could be so beautiful!" "She was marvelous," I said.
Details
10
12 433 At the exit he stopped briefly and, Aphris over his shoulder, turned and faced Elizabeth and myself.
Details
10
12 437 Elizabeth Cardwell was staring after him.
Details
10
12 483 I could not think of her in my arms—nor of her ignorant, timid lips on mine—for she was always and would remain only the unfortunate Elizabeth Cardwell, the innocent and unwitting victim of an inexplicable translocation and an unexpected, unjust reduction to shameful bondage.
Details
10
12 494 I was, however, confused about Elizabeth, for it seemed to me she had behaved strangely this night.
Details
10
12 497 Elizabeth had reason to fear.
Details
10
12 502 Moreover, not every man wants to own an untrained barbarian slave, for such, even if given to them, must be fed—and, this spring, as I could tell from walking about the camp, there was no shortage of girls, freshly collared and branded perhaps, untrained perhaps, but yet, and most importantly...
Details
10
13 1 The Attack In the morning, to my dismay, Elizabeth Cardwell was not to be found.
Details
10
13 7 Kamchak was holding Elizabeth's bedding—a rep-cloth blanket—for them to smell.
Details
10
13 19 I spied Elizabeth Cardwell approaching the wagon, two leather water buckets fastened to a wooden yoke she carried over her shoulders.
Details
10
13 21 Aphris cried out with delight and ran to Elizabeth, to my astonishment, to kiss her and help with the water.
Details
10
13 23 Elizabeth lifted her head innocently and gazed at him frankly.
Details
10
13 28 Elizabeth did not so much as look at me.
Details
10
13 36 Elizabeth and Aphris had gone into the wagon.
Details
10
13 51 By this time Elizabeth had returned with the whip and bracelets, and had handed them to Kamchak.
Details
10
13 59 "I was afraid," said Elizabeth.
Details
10
13 76 Elizabeth looked at him.
Details
10
13 83 Elizabeth suddenly cried out throwing her head to one side.
Details
10
13 87 "Did you not see the secret blood of her?—That she is eager and ready—that she is fit prize for the steel of a master—that she is female, and," he added, "slave?" "No!" cried Elizabeth Cardwell.
Details
10
13 107 He would do no more to Elizabeth Cardwell than was commonly done to female slaves among the wagons, even those who had never dared to speak back or disobey in the least particular.
Details
10
13 108 Elizabeth, in her way, was fortunate.
Details
10
13 111 I saw Aphris sneaking to the cage to bring Elizabeth a dipper of water.
Details
10
13 138 I had not mentioned the matter of the Paravaci quiva which had almost struck me last night, having been in the morning disturbed about the disappearance of Elizabeth Cardwell and in the afternoon busy following Kamchak about in his rounds.
Details
10
13 192 Such tonight, or on another night, would be the lovely Elizabeth Cardwell.
Details
10
13 204 On the other hand, Kamchak could say the sound I have represented as "vella" quite easily and would upon occasion use this as Elizabeth's name.
Details
10
14 17 Kamchak took her roughly by the arm and shoved her stumbling toward the sleen cage where, holding the bars, frightened, knelt Elizabeth Cardwell.
Details
10
14 18 Kamchak unlocked the cage and thrust Aphris inside with Elizabeth.

15 63 When he returned that night from the wagon of Kutaituchik to his own wagon he strode angrily to the sleen cage where he had confined Aphris with Elizabeth during the putative attack.
Details
10
15 71 Roughly Kamchak took her by the arm and thrust her into the sleen cage beside the miserable Elizabeth Cardwell.
Details
10
15 85 Elizabeth Cardwell refused to meet my eyes, and would not so much as speak to me.
Details
10
15 92 I once spoke harshly to her when I saw her cruelly poke Elizabeth Cardwell through the bars with the bosk stick.
Details
10
15 95 "Where now is the pelt of the red larl, Slave?" Tuka would taunt Elizabeth, threatening her with the bosk stick.
Details
10
15 98 Elizabeth endured the insults as though paying no attention, but sometimes at night I could hear her sobbing.
Details
10
16 17 "Here," said Harold, pointing to a cut between two rocks, only about eight inches wide, through which from some underground source a flow of water was emerging, entering and adding to the small stream at which, some four pasangs from the wagons, Aphris and Elizabeth had often drawn water for the wag...
Details
10
16 206 I immediately recalled Elizabeth's description of the man who had examined her for fitness to bear the message collar—on Earth! "I have never seen that man," said Ha-Keel.
Details
10
16 297 I was confident that the man was the same as he who had brought Elizabeth Cardwell to this world—he who had seen her in New York and decided she would play her role in his perilous sport—and that thus he had at his disposal an advanced technology—certainly to the level of at lea...
Details
10
23 204 There was no sign of either Aphris or Elizabeth, either about the wagon, or in the overturned, broken sleen cage in which, when I had last seen them, Kamchak had confined them.
Details
10
23 217 There was a brass ladle that Aphris and Elizabeth had used in cooking and a tin box of yellow Turian sugar, dented in now and its contents scattered; and the large, gray leathery object which I had upon occasion seen Kamchak use as a stool, that which he had once kicked across the floor for my inspe...

23 219 Kamchak, I knew, however, cared little for the slave, and would not be much concerned; yet her fate concerned me, and I hoped that she might live, that her beauty if not compassion or justice might have won her life for her, be it only as a Paravaci wagon slave; and then, too, I wondered again on th...
Details
10
24 12 I knew that Kamchak was in constant touch, by means of riders, with the wagons of the Tuchuks, and so I did not speak with him of the looting of his wagon, nor of the fate of Aphris of Turia, nor did I deem it well to speak to him of Elizabeth Cardwell, for it seemed evident that he had sold her, an...
Details
10
25 13 I did not speak, but stood dumbfounded, finding myself facing Elizabeth Cardwell.
Details
10
25 25 Harold had said that Elizabeth Cardwell had been given by Kamchak to a warrior.
Details
10
25 78 "It is over now, Elizabeth," I said.
Details
10
25 82 You are free, Elizabeth".
Details
10
25 96 "You are free, Elizabeth".
Details
10
25 121 Elizabeth looked up, the tiny ring glinting in the light of the fire bowl.
Details
10
25 129 Elizabeth laughed, through her tears.
Details
10
25 144 To be sure, Elizabeth Cardwell was still in Sirik.
Details
10
25 156 I spun about and to my astonishment saw that Elizabeth Cardwell had arisen and stood proudly, defiantly, angrily before me, as though she might have been a freshly collared slave girl, brought in but an Ahn before, bound over the saddle of a kaiila, the fruit of a slave raid.
Details
10
25 197 When I had done so, I faced her and said, "To a free woman, one who has been strong, one who has been brave, to Elizabeth Cardwell, to a woman who is both beautiful and free".
Details
10
25 201 "We shall, of course," Elizabeth was saying, "have to make some different arrangements about the wagon".
Details
10
25 208 Elizabeth did not wish more.
Details
10
25 248 "By the Priest-Kings," I cried, "you are one woman who is looking for trouble!" Elizabeth laughed over the wine.
Details
10
25 267 "Of course," said Elizabeth, "we could regard it as a division of labor of sorts".
Details
10
25 272 "But you can't trust slaves," said Elizabeth.
Details
10
25 274 "You nearly spilled your wine," said Elizabeth.
Details
10
25 276 Elizabeth winked at me, conspiratorially.
Details
10
25 280 Elizabeth knelt down a few feet from me, and took another sip of the wine.
Details
10
25 325 Why had he done this, truly? For me? Or for her, as well? If so, why? For what reason? Elizabeth had now finished her wine.
Details
10
25 339 Suddenly I thought I understood Kamchak! He had indeed been fond of the girl! "Elizabeth," I said.
Details
10
25 356 Elizabeth smiled.
Details
10
25 363 "I would have little respect for the woman," said Elizabeth Cardwell, "who could utterly surrender to a man".
Details
10
25 365 "Women," said Elizabeth, "are persons—surely as much as men—and their equals".
Details
10
25 369 "Nonsense," said Elizabeth.
Details
10
25 371 "But what," I asked, "if the laws of nature and of human blood were more basic, more primitive and essential than the conventions and teachings of society—what if these old secrets and truths, if truths they be, had been concealed or forgotten, or subverted to the requirements of a society co...
Details
10
25 380 "The Tuchuk women," said Elizabeth, "have a miserable lot".
Details
10
25 382 "I have never known a woman who was a Free Companion," said Elizabeth.
Details
10
25 385 "I am not accustomed to thinking of myself," smiled Elizabeth, "as a mammal".
Details
10
25 387 I pounded the floor of the wagon and Elizabeth jumped.
Details
10
25 390 "Because," said Elizabeth, "it is not true".
Details
10
25 392 "Silly!" said Elizabeth.
Details
10
25 394 Elizabeth threw back her head and laughed merrily.
Details
10
25 396 "And what happens to these women afterwards?" asked Elizabeth.
Details
10
25 398 "No man," said Elizabeth, "including you, my dear Tarl Cabot, could bring me to such a pass".
Details
10
25 400 "It is all very silly," said Elizabeth.
Details
10
25 402 "That is the silliest of all!" laughed Elizabeth.
Details
10
25 431 "Please, do not speak so, Elizabeth," I said.
Details
10
25 447 "Beautiful Elizabeth," I said, "I can have you as neither".
Details
10
25 490 I looked at Miss Elizabeth Cardwell, kneeling before me, head down, clad only in the collar of a slave.
Details
10
25 497 "Why have you done this, Elizabeth?" I asked.
Details
10
25 507 Elizabeth looked up, shyly.
Details
10
25 536 Elizabeth was looking at me, smiling.
Details
10
25 749 Elizabeth Cardwell gasped.
Details
10
25 797 "I do not want to be a slave!" But when I had touched the most intimate beauties of her she became uncontrollable, writhing, and in my arms I knew the feeling of a slave girl and such, for the moment, was the beautiful Elizabeth Cardwell, helpless and mine, female and slave.
Details
10
25 842 "And you, lovely Elizabeth," said I, "wear a collar".
Details
10
25 904 "And what of Miss Elizabeth Cardwell?" I inquired.
Details
10
25 905 "That pretty little slave!" said Elizabeth, scornfully.
Details
10
25 907 "She is not a secretary," said Elizabeth, "she is only a little Gorean slave".
Details
10
25 908 "Well," said I, "what of her?" "As you may have heard," whispered the girl, "Miss Elizabeth Cardwell, the nasty little wench, was forced to yield herself as a slave girl to a master".
Details
10
25 928 And from time to time, during the night, each of the girls, Vella of Gor and the little barbarian, Miss Elizabeth Cardwell, begged, and were permitted, to serve the pleasure of their master.
Details
10
26 6 As I had left Elizabeth Cardwell had awakened.
Details
10
26 19 When I had left the wagon Elizabeth Cardwell, though she had said nothing, had been frightened.
Details
10
26 560 Again we laughed and, suddenly, we urged the kaiila forward in great bounding strides, eager to reach the wagons, each of us, for waiting in these wagons were three girls, desirable, marvelous, ours, Hereena, she who had been of the First Wagon, the slave of Harold, her master; Aphris of Turia, almo...
Details
10
27 67 Harold and I were there, too, and Hereena and Elizabeth.
Details
10
27 104 Elizabeth had watched but she had shown no sign of anger or irritation.
Details
10
27 105 "She is beautiful," said Elizabeth.
Details
10
27 107 And then I looked at Elizabeth.
Details
10
27 117 "I would," said Elizabeth firmly, "I am worth many tarn disks".
Details
10
27 133 It was hard for me to believe that this marvelous, collared beauty in my arms was once a simple girl of Earth, that this astounding wench, Tuchuk and Gorean, was the same as Miss Elizabeth Cardwell, the young secretary who so long before had found herself inexplicably thrust into intrigues and circu...
Details
10
27 136 None remained now in the court of the Ubar other than Kamchak and Aphris, Harold and Hereena, and myself and Elizabeth Cardwell.
Details
10
27 180 Hereena and Elizabeth followed us, each, as was proper, some two paces behind.
Details
10
27 195 Hereena and Elizabeth would run at our stirrups.
Details
10
27 204 Aphris, as Hereena and Elizabeth, ran by the stirrup.
Details
10
28 2 In the camp of the Tuchuks Elizabeth had begged that I not free her for but another hour.
Details
10
28 8 I recalled how cruel she had been to Elizabeth in the long months she had been with the Tuchuks, and how she had tormented her even when she was helpless in the cage of a sleen, mocking her and poking at her with the bosk stick.
Details
10
28 9 Perhaps Tuka gathered what might have been on Elizabeth's mind, for no sooner had the American girl turned toward her than she turned and fled from the wagon.
Details
10
28 13 At that juncture, as I recall, Elizabeth was kneeling on top of the Turian maiden with her hands in her hair pounding her head up and down in the dirt.
Details
10
28 14 Elizabeth's Tuchuk leather had been half torn from her but Tuka, who had been clothed only Kajir, had fared not even this well.
Details
10
28 15 Indeed, when Elizabeth finished, Tuka wore only the Koora, the red band that ties back the hair, and this band now knotted her wrists behind her back.
Details
10
28 16 Elizabeth then tied a thong in Tuka's nose ring and dragged her to the creek, where she might find a switch.
Details
10
28 19 At last, panting, bleeding here and there, discolored in places, half-naked, triumphant, Elizabeth Cardwell returned to my side, where she knelt as a humble, obedient slave girl.
Details
10
28 24 Elizabeth did not seem affrighted to be astride the tarn.
Details
10
28 64 I recalled what I took to be the skepticism of Kamchak and Kutaituchik long ago when they had questioned myself and Elizabeth Cardwell of such matters.
Details
10
28 69 Elizabeth Cardwell was weeping, and I put my arms about her, to comfort her, and to protect her from the blasts of the swift air.

Book 5. (202 results) Assassin of Gor

Chapter # Sentence # Quote Confidence
15 212 The truly sinister aspect of even this portion of the girls' training did not become evident to me, or to Elizabeth, until the entire next week was spent again before the mirror, seeing themselves as slave girls, and repeating, aloud, these questions and answers, as though putting them to themselves...
Details
10
15 225 In the beginning, when moving about the house, the girls had been permitted only the garb customarily worn in the sweat and motion of the training, a rectangle of silk, about a foot long, thrust into a silken string knotted about the waist; Virginia and Phyllis would not even leave their cells so cl...

10
5 493 "Do you think," demanded Elizabeth, of both myself and Misk, "that a woman cannot be brave? Will you not honor her as you would a man with danger, not permit her to do something worthy of her species, something important and fine, or is all that is significant and meaningful to be reserved for men?"...
Details
10
5 541 "Well then," said Elizabeth, "what are you ashamed of?" Then Elizabeth strode to her and, to the girl's horror, on one of the public high bridges, face-stripped her.
Details
10
19 95 I felt rage and sorrow, rage at the twisting of events, the brilliance of my enemies, my own failures, and sorrow for Elizabeth, and the other girls; for Elizabeth in particular my heart cried out, for her hopes would be so cruelly dashed; she might not even discover that she was not on her way to s...

2 352 "It is a dangerous thing you are doing, Elizabeth," said Kuurus.

10
4 144 From a side entrance to the hall, where she had been kept, Elizabeth Cardwell, Vella, was thrust into the room.
Details
10
4 148 Elizabeth, I knew, would hate that.
Details
10
4 160 Elizabeth, trembling, lowered her head to the floor and crossed her wrists under her, kneeling, as it is said, to the whip.
Details
10
4 164 Elizabeth did so.
Details
10
4 166 Without a word Elizabeth did so, standing and pulling the loop at her left shoulder.
Details
10
4 184 Elizabeth said nothing.
Details
10
4 187 "I am not truly Tuchuk," said Elizabeth.
Details
10
4 199 "I am sorry," said Elizabeth, her head down.
Details
10
4 203 Elizabeth said nothing.
Details
10
4 209 "Yes, Master," said Elizabeth.
Details
10
4 213 When Elizabeth had done so once, she remained standing before him, as he had commanded.
Details
10
4 224 Elizabeth looked at him, startled.
Details
10
4 225 I had not counted on this, nor had Elizabeth.
Details
10
4 230 During this time, since Elizabeth was nominally of the staff of Caprus, we could surely find time to be about our work, for which purpose we had arranged to enter the House of Cernus.
Details
10
4 232 Elizabeth dropped to her knees, head down.
Details
10
4 235 Elizabeth did so, and suddenly, superbly, she threw her arm before her mouth and cried out, as though just seeing me for the first time, and remembering me with horror.
Details
10
4 240 Elizabeth had her head down to the stone floor.
Details
10
4 243 "Hateful beast!" wept Elizabeth.
Details
10
4 245 "Was he cruel to you?" "Yes," she cried, her eyes gleaming, "Yes!" Elizabeth, I had to admit, was a really remarkable actress.
Details
10
4 249 Elizabeth threw him a look of incredible gratitude, her eyes wide with tears, her mouth trembling.
Details
10
4 256 "No!" howled Elizabeth.
Details
10
4 258 Elizabeth collapsed weeping before the stone platform.
Details
10
5 1 In the House of Cernus Kneeling back on her heels in my quarters, in the traditional fashion of Gorean women, Elizabeth laughed merrily and slapped her knees, so pleased was she.
Details
10
5 39 "This permits," I said to Elizabeth, indicating the small hole below the latch bar, "the complex knot".
Details
10
5 47 We began to rummage through some of the chests and, almost immediately, Elizabeth discovered some five pairs of sandal thongs.
Details
10
5 55 Elizabeth looked at the cords for a moment.
Details
10
5 58 Elizabeth was quick, always quick.
Details
10
5 65 "Marvelous!" Elizabeth was one of the quickest girls I had ever known.
Details
10
5 73 "It is always the same knot though," said Elizabeth.
Details
10
5 76 "Anyone then," said Elizabeth, "could untie the knot".
Details
10
5 79 "The owner of the compartment," said Elizabeth, "returning to the compartment and untying the knot can tell immediately whether or not it is his own knot".
Details
10
5 81 "And thus he knows," said Elizabeth, "whether or not the compartment has been entered in his absence".
Details
10
5 84 Elizabeth then watched in silence while I, trying to recall the intricacies of my signature knot, worked the boskhide cords.
Details
10
5 91 I turned to Elizabeth.
Details
10
5 93 "Good," said Elizabeth, undaunted by the complex prospect.
Details
10
5 99 "Elizabeth," said I.
Details
10
5 131 With a flourish I unrolled the furs, spilling Elizabeth out, who shrieked and began to crawl away, but my hand caught at the loop on the left shoulder of her garment and she turned suddenly, trying to sit up, her feet tangled in the garment and I kicked it away and took her in my arms.
Details
10
5 144 Sometimes I was forced to remind myself that she was Miss Elizabeth Cardwell of Earth, and not, as she lost herself uncontrollably in our pleasures, hands clutching at the slave ring, a Gorean slave girl, bred for the pleasures of a master.
Details
10
5 145 * * * * Some months before, Elizabeth and I, the egg of Priest-Kings in the saddlepack of my tarn, had returned to the north from the Plains of Turia, the Land of the Wagon Peoples.
Details
10
5 184 * * * * Elizabeth and I had remained with Misk in the Nest of Priest-Kings, that incredible complex beneath the Sardar, for some weeks.
Details
10
5 189 Elizabeth was silent as I asked of these things.
Details
10
5 213 Elizabeth, I noted, had stepped from us as we had spoken.
Details
10
5 215 Elizabeth had been rapt with wonder at the Nest, but after some days, even in the presence of its grandeur, I knew she desired again to be on the surface, in the free air, in the sunlight.
Details
10
5 227 Since Elizabeth and I were strangers in the Nest Serus had wanted us fit with the devices as a precaution, but, of course, Misk would hear nothing of it.
Details
10
5 235 Interestingly, Elizabeth learned to read Gorean in the Nest, and in less than an hour.
Details
10
5 237 Elizabeth had agreed but was startled when placed on a long table, actually of a size for a Priest-King, and found her head enclosed between two curved, intricate devices, rather like two halves of a bowl.
Details
10
5 249 "Let me up," said Elizabeth.
Details
10
5 251 Kusk twiddled a knob, and Elizabeth said "Please," once more and then it seemed she could hardly keep her eyes open, and then she closed her eyes and was asleep.
Details
10
5 253 There was a tiny click and a small odor signal was emitted from the apparatus closed about Elizabeth's head.
Details
10
5 266 "But it's Gorean," said Elizabeth.
Details
10
5 288 "When I look at it," said Elizabeth, excitedly, holding the sheet of plastic, "I just know what the sounds are—I just know!" "Of course," said Kusk, "but it grows near the Ahn of the fourth feeding.
Details
10
5 290 We left Elizabeth in the room and went to eat.
Details
10
5 298 But, as the days wore on, I, as well as Elizabeth, wished to leave the Nest.
Details
10
5 435 I turned about and, to my surprise, saw that Elizabeth had entered the compartment.
Details
10
5 438 Elizabeth did not smile.
Details
10
5 443 "Was it wrong for me to speak before her?" I looked at Elizabeth.
Details
10
5 449 Misk looked from Elizabeth to myself.
Details
10
5 464 "I will go, too," said Elizabeth.
Details
10
5 478 "I am sorry," I said, "I am sorry, Elizabeth.
Details
10
5 498 "There!" said Elizabeth brazenly, facing me, hands on her hips.
Details
10
5 501 Then he had placed his antennae on us, one on my left shoulder and the other on Elizabeth's right shoulder.
Details
10
5 502 Before we began our dangerous journey, however, at Misk's suggestion, both Elizabeth and I returned to Ko-ro-ba, that we might rest some days and, in a peaceful interlude, share our affections.
Details
10
5 505 We crossed the partially rebuilt walls, Elizabeth and I, and found ourselves among cylinders, many of which were in the process of reconstruction.
Details
10
5 511 Or perhaps one should say, simply, there was Elizabeth.
Details
10
5 512 Elizabeth, besides speaking boldly out on a large number of delicate civic, social and political issues, usually not regarded as the province of the fairer sex, categorically refused to wear the cumbersome Robes of Concealment traditionally expected of the free woman.
Details
10
5 514 Once a slave girl bumped into her on one of the bridges and struck at her, thinking she was only slave, but Elizabeth, with a swift blow of her small fist, downed the girl, and managed to seize one ankle and prevent her from tumbling from the bridge.
Details
10
5 516 At this point Elizabeth hit her again, almost knocking her once more from the bridge.
Details
10
5 517 Then, when they had their hands in one another's hair, kicking, the slave girl suddenly stopped, terrified, not seeing the gleaming, narrow band of steel locked on Elizabeth's throat.
Details
10
5 519 "What collar?" asked Elizabeth, her fists clenched in the girl's hair.
Details
10
5 521 "I'm free," said Elizabeth.
Details
10
5 522 Suddenly the girl howled and fell to her knees before Elizabeth, kneeling trembling to the whip.
Details
10
5 525 "Oh, get up!" said Elizabeth irritably, jerking the poor girl to her feet.
Details
10
5 527 "After all," said Elizabeth, "why should it be only slave girls who are comfortable and can move freely?" "Aren't you slave?" asked one of the men nearby, a Warrior, looking closely.
Details
10
5 528 Elizabeth slapped him rather hard and he staggered back.
Details
10
5 533 "Well," said Elizabeth, "if you like walking around wrapped up in blankets, you are free to do so".
Details
10
5 535 "You probably have ugly legs," said Elizabeth.
Details
10
5 537 "Don't choke on your veil," advised Elizabeth.
Details
10
5 539 "I doubt it," said Elizabeth.
Details
10
5 542 The girl screamed but no one came to her aid, and Elizabeth spun her about, peeling off layers of Robes of Concealment until, in a heavy pile of silk, brocade, satin and starched muslin the girl stood in a sleeveless, rather brief orange tunic, attractive, of a sort sometimes worn by free women in t...
Details
10
5 545 Elizabeth regarded the free woman.
Details
10
5 548 "Twenty gold pieces, I'd say," appraised Elizabeth.
Details
10
5 549 "I'd give twenty-three," said one of the men watching, the same fellow whom Elizabeth had slapped.
Details
10
5 551 "What do you think?" asked Elizabeth of the cringing slave girl.
Details
10
5 553 "That is your misfortune," said Elizabeth.
Details
10
5 555 "It will do," said Elizabeth.
Details
10
5 557 "Yes," snapped Elizabeth.
Details
10
5 560 Elizabeth, with the others, inspected the free girl.
Details
10
5 561 "Yes," said Elizabeth, "Rena, I think you're right".
Details
10
5 568 "Yes, Relia," corrected Elizabeth.
Details
10
5 572 "I don't suppose an exalted free woman like yourself," said Elizabeth, "drinks Ka-la-na?" "Of course I do," said Relia.
Details
10
5 573 "Well," said Elizabeth, turning to me, who had been standing there, as flabbergasted as any on the bridge, "we shall have some".
Details
10
5 577 Elizabeth then took Relia by one arm and Rena by the other.
Details
10
5 584 "Men," said Elizabeth, and went her way, the two girls, much pleased, laughing beside her.
Details
10
5 585 I do not know whether or not Elizabeth's continued presence in Ko-ro-ba would have initiated a revolution among the city's free women or not.
Details
10
5 592 Elizabeth was much amused by the forged slave papers prepared for her, giving in detail an account of her capture and exchanges, complete with endorsements and copies of bills of sale.
Details
10
5 597 I kissed Elizabeth long one morning, and then, with Al-Ka, she, hidden in a wagon disguised to resemble a peddler's wagon, left the city.
Details
10
5 602 There Al-Ka would release Elizabeth from the rain canvas and busy himself with the wagon.
Details
10
5 605 Meanwhile Elizabeth would have built a fire and in it burned her clothing.
Details
10
5 608 Then, whistling, Al-Ka would pull the wagon out of the grove and Elizabeth would be on her way to Thentis, for delivery to the House of Clark, only another slave girl, naked and chained, perhaps lovelier than most but yet scarcely to be noticed among the many others, each day, delivered to so large ...
Details
10
5 613 Elizabeth and I had arrived in Ko-ro-ba in the second month, and she departed on the second day of the Second Passage Hand, that following the second month.
Details
10
5 616 It is true that if she, with other girls, were shipped by wagon to Ar, this schedule would not be met; but we knew that the House of Clark, in the case of select merchandise, under which category Elizabeth surely fell, transported slaves by tarn caravan to the markets of Ar, usually binding them in ...
Details
10
5 621 * * * * "I've got it now," said Elizabeth, who, kneeling before the slave ring, had been practicing my signature knot, using the ring as a post.
Details
10
5 625 It is perhaps surprising, but I think there would have been little difficulty telling which knot had been tied by a man and which by a woman; moreover, though this was much subtler, Elizabeth's knot did, in its way, remind me of her.
Details
10
5 629 "You might check this knot," said Elizabeth.
Details
10
5 631 Elizabeth's knot was a fifty-five-turn knot.
Details
10
5 635 Upon reflection, it did seem to me there might be some purpose in Elizabeth's having her own knot, apart from her delight in inventing and utilizing one.
Details
10
5 643 It seemed to me, all things considered, though it was a bother for me, a good thing that Elizabeth had her own knot.
Details
10
5 653 "I do not tie dainty knots," Elizabeth informed me.
Details
10
5 692 "Yes," admitted Elizabeth, "I would agree".

5 696 "Please do so," said Elizabeth, wiggling a bit.
Details
10
5 697 "When you returned to the House of Cernus," I asked, "and told the Keeper what had theoretically happened to you, as I instructed you, what happened?" Elizabeth smiled.
Details
10
5 698 "I was cuffed about quite a bit," said Elizabeth.
Details
10
5 724 I bent to Elizabeth's bonds to free her when suddenly there came a loud knock on the door of the compartment.
Details
10
5 729 I gave Elizabeth a swift kiss and then jerked the slave livery to her waist and turned her about, putting her on her side at the foot of the couch, facing away from the door.
Details
10
5 744 Ho-Tu glanced into the room, saw Elizabeth and smiled, a slaver's smile.
Details
10
5 756 Elizabeth struggled to her knees, threw back her head turning the collar on her throat, and knelt facing us.
Details
10
6 91 Elizabeth, I knew, would have enjoyed them as well.
Details
10
6 93 Poor Elizabeth, I thought.
Details
10
6 101 I resolved that most of my problems in this matter might be solved if I simply refused to release Elizabeth until she had given her word, which she takes quite seriously, to be at least civil.
Details
10
6 102 But Elizabeth, rightly or wrongly, was banished from my mind for the moment because I heard, from a side door, the rustle of slave bells, and was pleased to note that seven girls hurried in, using the short, running steps of the slave girl, arms to the side, palms out, head to the left, eyes averted...
Details
10
7 171 Elizabeth, I had learned, who had been shipped from the House of Clark, had been transported in a covered basket, lashed shut.
Details
10
7 183 Elizabeth Cardwell, I reminded myself, was of Earth.
Details
10
8 1 Breakfast It was, predictably, an extremely irritable, and a very stiff and sore Elizabeth Cardwell whom I freed at the eighth Gorean hour, at which time I returned to my compartment.
Details
10
8 18 "It did, didn't it," said Elizabeth.
Details
10
8 20 "You try it when we are alone," said Elizabeth, "and I will bite your hand off".
Details
10
8 21 "Hah!" I cried, and Elizabeth jumped.
Details
10
8 47 It was a chipper, fed Elizabeth Cardwell who returned to the compartment, humming and sprightly.
Details
10
8 62 On the other hand, it was certainly not impossible that the girls brought in the other night, or some of them, would be trained with Elizabeth, probably being taught Gorean in the process.
Details
10
8 63 The fact that Elizabeth's training was not beginning immediately gave some suggestion that this might be the case.
Details
10
8 64 "Tonight," said Elizabeth, "after the sixteenth bar, I am to report to the smith at the iron pens".
Details
10
8 66 "Did you like it?" asked Elizabeth.
Details
10
8 68 "I grew rather fond of it, too," said Elizabeth, "after a time".
Details
10
8 78 I then, in great detail, told Elizabeth all that I had seen and learned the night before.
Details
10
8 94 "With a good breakfast," said Elizabeth, "I am a pretty shrewd wench".
Details
10
8 107 Elizabeth led me to a room off a kitchen on the third floor of the cylinder.
Details
10
8 110 I sat behind one, and Elizabeth knelt back of me and to my left.
Details
10
8 121 "The slave," I said, indicating Elizabeth, "will taste it first".
Details
10
8 125 "I have heard," I said to Elizabeth, "that black wine is served hot".
Details
10
8 128 I sat there staring down at them, and Elizabeth did, too.
Details
10
8 132 I shared the breakfast with Elizabeth, who informed me that it was better than the porridge below in the trough in the feeding room for female staff slaves, marvelous though the latter might have been.
Details
10
8 133 "I envy you free ones," said Elizabeth.
Details
10
8 135 "Actually," I said to Elizabeth, "this is very rare.
Details
10
8 141 "You are probably right," said Elizabeth, taking another sip, her eyes closed.
Details
10
8 143 "It is very good," said Elizabeth.
Details
10
8 146 Elizabeth had gathered up the love furs which I had kicked across the room and had spread them at the foot of the couch.
Details
10
8 188 After we had kissed I rolled over and fell asleep, and Elizabeth busied herself about the compartment, afterward leaving to go to the office of Caprus, perhaps about the twelfth hour.
Details
10
9 1 I Learn of the House of Cernus Ho-Tu, as Elizabeth had suggested, was only too willing to show me about the House of Cernus.
Details
10
9 17 On the other hand, such girls might be trained, and I suspected that Cernus might have in mind some such experiment with Elizabeth.
Details
10
9 45 In this room I saw two slave girls, clad in yellow livery with yellow collars, as Elizabeth normally was, kneeling opposite one another.
Details
10
10 33 I saw Elizabeth there, in the hallway outside, carrying an armful of scrolls.
Details
10
10 55 Elizabeth looked up, as though puzzled at this, as though she did not understand the reference, and then dropped her head again.
Details
10
10 64 "Yes, Master," said Elizabeth, not lifting her head.
Details
10
10 66 Elizabeth looked up brightly.
Details
10
10 68 Elizabeth smiled.
Details
10
10 69 "In order that they may bring," added Ho-Tu, looking at Elizabeth, "a higher price".
Details
10
10 70 Elizabeth looked down.
Details
10
10 72 Elizabeth looked up at me.
Details
10
11 177 Both, I noted, were, like Elizabeth, dark-haired.
Details
10
11 179 The girl on the left had her hair cut rather short; the slavers would, in all probability, not permit her to continue to wear her hair in that fashion; her face was delicate, fragile, rather thin and intellectual; her body was thin; I expected her new masters would put some weight on her; her eyes w...
Details
10
12 165 By the time I returned to the House of Cernus Elizabeth would have finished her slave porridge and be in the compartment, and I would hear about her day, and she would hear about mine, or most of it.
Details
10
12 168 Yet Elizabeth, and the two others, Virginia and Phyllis, had only been in training for five days.
Details
10
12 189 Since Elizabeth was to be the lead girl in the set she was summoned to the kennel chamber when Virginia and Phyllis were to be released.
Details
10
12 193 The guard braceleted one of Phyllis' wrists to the rail and then snapped bracelets on Virginia, confining her wrists behind her back; he carried Virginia down to the main level and set her on her knees there, before Flaminius and Ho-Tu; Elizabeth and I were in the background; then the guard went bac...
Details
10
12 220 "These are the three," said Ho-Tu, indicating the two branded girls, and Elizabeth.
Details
10
12 225 Sura walked around them, and then she regarded Elizabeth.
Details
10
12 227 Elizabeth did so, drawing at the loop on the left shoulder of her garment.
Details
10
12 228 "Join them," ordered Sura, and Elizabeth went to kneel between Virginia and Phyllis.
Details
10
12 229 "Bracelet her," said Sura, and the guard snapped slave bracelets on Elizabeth, confining her hands behind her back, like the other girls.
Details
10
12 230 "You are lead girl?" asked Sura of Elizabeth.
Details
10
12 231 "Yes," said Elizabeth.
Details
10
12 235 "Yes, Mistress," said Elizabeth.
Details
10
12 237 "Yes, Mistress," said Elizabeth.
Details
10
12 238 Sura spat on the stones before Elizabeth.
Details
10
12 251 Sura looked at Elizabeth.
Details
10
12 254 Elizabeth, wisely, refrained from response.
Details
10
12 291 Sura looked at Elizabeth.
Details
10
12 293 "I scarcely think so," said Elizabeth, adding acidly, "Mistress".
Details
10
12 303 "Plate collars!" To their surprise, the guard then released the two girls, and Elizabeth, as well, from their slave bracelets.
Details
10
12 306 Elizabeth, now also free, went to their side, trying to help them.
Details
10
12 313 He indicated Elizabeth's yellow enameled collar, bearing the legend of the House of Cernus.
Details
10
12 323 This time Virginia and Phyllis needed no translation, and they, with Elizabeth, knelt before Sura.
Details
10
12 359 Even Elizabeth, whom I knew was swift and spirited, seemed paralyzed and tortured by the goad.
Details
10
12 361 The three girls lying in pain on the stones looked up at her in fear, even the proud Elizabeth, their bodies trembling, their eyes wide.
Details
10
12 362 I read in their eyes, even those of Elizabeth, a sudden terror of the goad.
Details
10
14 3 When I returned to our compartment I found Elizabeth sleeping on a mat, wrapped in a rep-cloth blanket, under the slave ring.
Details
10
14 10 Elizabeth, with a rustle of chain, sat up, rubbing her eyes.
Details
10
14 13 Elizabeth's collar had also been changed.
Details
10
14 15 Virginia and Phyllis, however, Elizabeth had told me, still wore the simple iron collars which had been hammered about their necks by the smith days before.
Details
10
14 18 I think it was not so much I minded an occasional bit of silk lying on the floor as that I derived great pleasure from the fact that the lovely Miss Elizabeth Cardwell, slave in the House of Cernus, must keep my quarters.
Details
10
14 19 Elizabeth's puttering about, dusting, a cloth about her hair, serving me with these small domesticities, was a sight I relished.
Details
10
14 22 Women, I suspected, even proud, beautiful, intelligent women like Elizabeth Cardwell, secretly wish their men to be strong, and upon occasion to prove it to them, commanding them as mere females, giving them no choice but to do precisely as he wishes.
Details
10
14 23 I released Elizabeth from the slave ring, the chain and collar.
Details
10
14 50 I did not mention it to Elizabeth but I would have expected the maps to be oriented only by key, and the notes to have been in some form of code.
Details
10
14 51 "Our problem," said Elizabeth, "will be to get the copies to the Sardar".
Details
10
14 55 The reason that Elizabeth and I had been placed in the House of Cernus had been because Caprus, according to report, could not obtain the documents we believed must exist in the house.
Details
10
14 56 It was thought that I, as a mercenary in the house, or Elizabeth, as a staff slave, might be able to locate and seize the documents in question.
