2	101	My eyes suddenly noted her one piece of jewelry—a light, steel-like band she wore as a collar.	10
2	157	The more common expression for the sun was Tor-tu-Gor, which means Light Upon the Home Stone.	10
2	228	I regarded this story as improbable, at least in part, for several reasons, primarily having to do with the sheer spatial improbabilities of such a migration, which, even at a speed approximating light, would have taken billions of years.	10
2	249	Physical evidence, such as light or radio waves, which might reveal the presence of the planet, can be prevented from doing so.	10
2	250	The Priest-Kings might gravitationally warp the space in their vicinity, causing light or radio waves to be diffused, curved, or deflected in such a way as not to expose their world".	10

3	255	Though the tarn, like most birds, is surprisingly light for its size, this primarily having to do with the comparative hollowness of the bones, it is an extremely powerful bird, powerful even beyond what one would expect from such a monster.	10
4	6	The effect was startling: there was the sudden bright flash of yellow glittering light, the splash of sparks, and a scream of pain and rage from the tarn as he immediately beat his wings, lifting himself out of my reach in a rush of air that nearly forced me over the edge of the roof.	10
4	108	It was chilly to the touch now, because I had set the chronometric temperature device to turn to cold an hour before the first light.	10
5	4	The saddle pack contained the light gear carried by raiding tarnsmen—in particular, rations, a compass, maps, binding fiber, and extra bowstrings.	10
5	147	The night before, I had ridden over fields of grain, silvery yellow beneath me in the light of the three moons.	10

11	120	There was a sudden flash of light, and then darkness.	10
13	10	To the southwest I could see dimly the evening light reflected from the spires of Ar, and to the north, approaching from the Vosk, I could see the glow from what must be thousands of cooking fires, the night's camp of Pa-Kur.	10
13	25	The light of the three moons was bright that night, and in the resultant exotic patchwork of shadows below, I caught sight of one of the larls, padding softly along, its body almost white in the moonlight.	10
14	21	"It was well done," said Marlenus, looking at the Stone, holding it so the light reflected variously from its worn surface.	10
14	159	There was a rim of red light over the mountains, and I knew it was nearly dawn.	10
14	161	In the first streak of the early light I saw a few hundred yards away what I had hoped to find—the saddle and twisted body of the tarnsman.	10
15	13	On the summit of the rampart, where it was completed, were numerous archer blinds, movable wooden screens to shield archers and light missile equipment.	10
15	28	Light engines, mostly catapults and ballistae, would be transported over the ditches by harnessed tarn teams.	10
15	77	He lit the small hanging tent lamp, a wick set in a copper bowl of tharlarion oil, and in its flickering light turned to the sleeping mat.	10

16	30	After dark, in the light of torches, the first tower reached the walls.	10
17	19	Moreover, hundreds of light "flying bridges" were being constructed; at the moment of the final assault these would be extended from the first wall to the second, and the men of Pa-Kur would scramble upward toward the looming ramparts of Ar's last defense.	10
18	75	In spite of the breadth of the pit, perhaps two hundred feet, it was cold at the bottom, and as I looked up, I was startled to note that, in the blue sky, I could see the dim pinpricks of light which, after dark, would become the blazing stars above Gor.	10
18	104	These bulbs, invented more than a century ago by the Caste of Builders, produce a clear, soft light for years without replacement.	10
18	110	Then, to my pleasure, instead of alighting, the tarn dropped a few feet down from the ceiling and began to streak through the tunnel, the energy bulbs flashing past me to form in my wake a gleaming chain of light.	10
20	7	And I wonder if on that world a girl, now a woman, thinks of me, and perhaps, too, of the secrets I have told her lie behind her sun, Tor-tu-Gor, Light Upon the Home Stone.	10

19	60	The dark cheering shapes, many of them crooked and wasted with their labors, saluted me in the light of the three rushing moons of Gor.	10
19	130	I tried to be light.	10

5	24	"Your touch is light," I said.	10
6	4	The temperature of the water which sprang from the wall tap, I learned, was regulated by the direction in which the shadow of a hand fell across a light-sensitive cell above the tap; the amount of water was correlated with the speed with which the hand passed before the sensor.	10

6	95	On this, wrapped in a light blanket, her chin on her knees, she sat watching me.	10
7	1	I Hunt for Priest-Kings In spite of Vika's protests it was with a light heart that I strode into the passageway beyond her chamber.	10

9	260	Let her weep, I said to myself, for she has failed her masters, the Priest-Kings, and undoubtedly her punishment will not be light.	10

15	43	In the front of this assembly, one by one, thin metal disks would snap into place, a light would flash as some energy transaction occurred, and then the disk would snap aside, immediately to be replaced by another.	10

22	159	In the blue torchlight I examined the blade and the light coat of oil that protected it.	10

25	54	A metal grille had been bolted over the shaft but it was fairly light and I did not expect much difficulty in wrenching it loose.	10
25	60	In the flash of light I had seen the mesh clearly and the shaft beyond and the rings set in the shaft used by Muls who upon occasion clean the shafts and spray them with bactericides.	10

26	265	Perhaps if she were thrown by her hair to the back of the cave and raped on furs in the light of the animal fire at its mouth this would have been to her little more than the proof of her mate's regard for her, the expected culmination of her innate desire to be dominated and his.	10
28	38	Al-Ka looked at me in the light of the hanging torches.	10
28	41	"I admire them," said Al-Ka, "for they can see a thousand yards in the darkness by the light of a single Mul-Torch and they can live on a handful of fungus and a swallow of water a day and they are very brave and proud".	10

29	126	The inside of the ship was dark, for its only intended occupants were Priest-Kings, but the open hatch permitted some light.	10
29	150	Feeling what seemed to be a blank area of the ceiling of the control area I fired a blast upward, using the simple expedient of the tube to open a hole in the craft through which light might enter.	10

32	323	Parp stood framed in the doorway holding that tiny silver lighter with which it seemed I had seen him fumble and light his pipe a thousand times, that small cylinder I had once mistaken for a weapon.	10

2	61	I saw the slender line of his light lance against the sky, strapped across his back.	10

9	209	Over the veil I could now see two dark, deep, almond-shaped eyes; her skin, what I could see of it, was lovely and clear; her complexion was not so light as that of Miss Cardwell, but was lighter than that of the girl Hereena, of the First Wagon.	10

17	8	The light in the room came, interestingly, from behind a translucent blue ceiling, probably being furnished by energy bulbs.	10
17	9	Saphrar was a rich man indeed to have energy bulbs in his home; few Goreans can afford such a luxury; and, indeed, few care to, for Goreans, for some reason, are fond of the light of flame, lamps and torches and such; flames must be made, tended, watched; they are more beautiful, more alive.	10
18	47	To my horror I saw it change its shade as it neared the surface, more closely approaching the light.	10
18	50	I reached out and slashed at it with the quiva, cutting it, and it withdrew suddenly, rolling in the fluid, and the pool itself seemed suddenly to churn with steam and light.	10
18	118	I could also see Harold bounding along, from roof to roof, in the light of the three moons.	10
19	40	Then I became aware of the flickerings and reflections of light from over the wall, against some of the higher buildings about.	10
