6	29	One of them must be the Home Stone of Ar, but which? How could I tell it from the others, the Home Stones of those cities which had fallen to Ar? Yes! It would be the one that would be red with Ka-la-na, that would be sprinkled with the seeds of grain! I felt the stones in frenzy, but several were d...	10
1	180	The stones on which they had fallen were blackened.	10
2	121	"Later," said my father, "Home Stones were used for villages, and later still for cities.	10
2	126	Indeed, there is a saying on Gor, a saying whose origin is lost in the past of this strange planet, that one who speaks of Home Stones should stand, for matters of honor are here involved, and honor is respected in the barbaric codes of Gor.	10
2	127	"These stones," said my father, "are various, of different colors, shapes, and sizes, and many of them are intricately carved.	10
2	128	Some of the largest cities have small, rather insignificant Home Stones, but of incredible antiquity, dating back to the time when the city was a village or only a mounted pride of warriors with no settled abode".	10
2	137	"Yet there is a hierarchy of Home Stones, one might say, and two soldiers who would cut one another down with their steel blades for an acre of fertile ground will fight side by side to the death for the Home Stone of their village or of the city within whose ambit their village lies.	10
5	20	Indeed, it seemed their confidence had been well placed, for now Ar, instead of being a single beleaguered city like so many others on Gor, was a central city in which were kept the Home Stones of a dozen hitherto free cities.	10
5	45	The Home Stone of Ar, like most Home Stones in the cylinder cities, was kept free on the tallest tower, as if in open defiance of the tarnsmen of rival cities.	10
6	26	I raced to the pile of stones at the center of the platform, the girl's screaming in my ears.	10
6	32	She fell to her knees and suddenly crawled to one of the stones, seized it up, and turned to flee.	10
8	15	Unresisting, the girl extended her wrists, and the soldier snapped slave bracelets on them—light, restraining bracelets of gold and blue stones that might have served as jewelry if it had not been for their function.	10
9	43	In the afternoon we moved on again, this time daring to use one of the wide paved highways that lead from Ar, highways built like walls in the earth, of solid, fitted stones intended to last a thousand years.	10
9	51	It seemed we had little to fear, and we had passed several of the pasang stones that line the side of the highway without seeing anything more threatening than a line of peasants carrying brushwood on their backs, and a pair of hurrying Initiates.	10
9	153	But Kazrak would not lay his sword on the stones at my feet.	10
10	6	It is a matter of caste, an expression of respect for those who share their station and profession, having nothing to do with cities or Home Stones.	10
15	191	"Strike for the Home Stones of those cities tributary to Ar—they are kept on the Central Cylinder.	10
15	192	If you seize them, you can divide Pa-Kur's horde, give the Home Stones to the contingents of the tributary cities, provided they withdraw their forces.	10
15	193	If they do not, destroy the Stones".	10
15	194	"The soldiers of the Twelve Tributary Cities," he said, "want loot, vengeance, the women of Ar, not just their Stones".	10
16	36	From the height of the walls, some two hundred feet above the towers, missiles would be fired and stones cast.	10
16	48	I was certain that he had entered the city in some manner and was presumably waiting for his chance to strike at the Home Stones of the tributary cities, in order, if possible, to divide the horde of Pa-Kur.	10
16	51	Marlenus and his men apparently had command of the top floor and roof of the cylinder, but there was little hope he could use the Home Stones that now lay within his grasp.	10
16	55	Also, Pa-Kur was not so much a fool as to bring the tributary Home Stones to his camp and risk disuniting his horde before the siege was completed.	10
16	56	Indeed, it was probable that Pa-Kur had no intention of returning the Home Stones at all but was determined to follow in the imperial footsteps of Marlenus himself.	10
16	60	At any rate, my plan for the division of the Home Stones had failed, and Marlenus, on whom I had depended, was, in the language of the game, neutralized if not removed from the board.	10
16	134	The heavy metal bars were coated with silver and set with precious stones.	10
20	14	The Home Stones of the Twelve Tributary Cities were returned, and those men who had served Pa-Kur from those cities were allowed to return to their cities rejoicing.	10

Chapter #	Sentence #	Quote	Confidence
3	10	Surprisingly, though the pasang stones told me I was close to Ko-ro-ba, stubborn tufts of grass were growing between the stones, and occasional vines were inching out, tendril by tendril, across the great stone blocks.	10
3	14	The shadows of the pasang stones had grown long, and, judging by the angle of these shadows, for the stones are set in such a way as to serve also as sundials, it was past the fourteenth Gorean Ahn, or hour.	10
5	53	Its stones and its people have been scattered to the corners of the world, and no two stones and no two men of Ko-ro-ba may stand again side by side".	10
21	18	"Tal," I said to two guardsmen who crouched at the side of a fire, playing Stones, a guessing game in which one person must guess whether the number of stones held in the fist of another is odd or even.	10
2	42	It is an entity with a history, as stones and rivers do not have history; it is an entity with a tradition, a heritage, customs, practices, character, intentions, hopes.	10
3	2	I recognized it, and even had I not, the cylindrical pasang stones that marked its length were each inscribed with the sign of the city and the appropriate pasang count to its walls.	10
3	11	It was late afternoon and, judging by the pasang stones, I was still some hours from the city.	10
3	27	After dark, various serpents seek out the road for its warmth, its stones retaining the sun's heat longer than the surrounding countryside.	10
3	33	I had scarcely stepped from the stones of the road when, coming down the road, each step carefully measured and solid, I saw a wide, hunched figure, bending under a gigantic bundle of sticks, strapped to his back by two cords which he held twisted in his fists in front of his body.	10
3	84	Indeed, frequent enough were the stories where even a warrior was overcome by an angry peasant into whose hut he had intruded himself, for in the vicinity of their Home Stones men fight with all the courage, savagery and resourcefulness of the mountain larl.	10
3	138	He threw down the ax, which rang on the stones of the road to Ko-ro-ba.	10
4	1	The Sleen In the darkness I stumbled on toward the walls of Ko-ro-ba, striking the stones of the road with the butt of my spear, to keep on the road and to drive possible serpents from my path.	10
4	73	In spite of the icy wind and rain I could feel the heat of the stones through my sandals.	10
5	31	In pools of cold water lying among the stones of the road I could see the three moons of Gor.	10
6	59	Why was the girl alone? Had her protectors been killed? Was she perhaps an escaped slave, fleeing from a hated master? Could she be, like myself, an exile from Ko-ro-ba? Its peoples have been scattered, I said to myself, and no two stones and no two men of Ko-ro-ba may stand again side by side.	10
12	11	Exhausted, my body aching from the weight of the yoke and the sting of the lash, I lay on the stones and slept.	10
16	52	"Indeed, Warrior," said she, "for our Tatrix we would give you even the stones of our walls".	10
18	120	A trickle of water from above moved down the sides of the stones.	10
18	133	We heard him in the shaft, grunting, gasping, the sounds of chains scraping on stones as he began the torturous inch by inch ascent.	10
20	20	In the first streak of light, now gleaming through the dusty hut window, I saw that the scabbard was set with six stones.	10
21	20	The other, attempting to guess the stones, did not even look up.	10
21	207	"I will give you two of the stones from this scabbard for her," I said.	10
21	208	Actually I had no idea of the value of the stones, and didn't know if the offer was a sensible one or not.	10
21	211	I gathered that he was not bluffing, for how could he have known that I did not know the true value of the stones? How could he know that I had not purchased them and had them set in the scabbard myself? "You drive a hard bargain," I said.	10
21	215	Targo gazed at the stones appreciatively.	10
21	263	But perhaps if I had better known the value of the stones? The girl's eyes looked into mine, perhaps trying to read in my eyes what would be her fate, for her fate was now in my hands, for I was her master.	10
21	264	Strange and cruel are the ways of Gor, I thought, where six small green stones, weighing perhaps scarcely two ounces, and a damaged helmet, could purchase a human being.	10
22	125	"I would not," she said, "have given up his collar for all the gold and silver in Tharna, not for all the stones of her gray walls".	10
23	209	I too smiled for resistance was useless, yet I knew that I would resist, that I would not be disarmed until I lay dead on the stones of the street.	10
23	222	I was carried through the streets and others of the rebels, appearing from doorways and windows, almost from the very stones of the street, joined what turned into a procession of triumph.	10
24	206	He leaped down from the barricade and laid his sword on the stones at Lara's feet.	10
24	227	He leaped down from the wall and placed his sword also on the stones at her feet.	10
24	254	I could hear nothing but the quiet, almost noiseless sound of my own sandals on the stones of the corridor.	10
25	8	Only an instant after myself Thorn's shield too was flung to the stones of the chamber floor.	10
25	18	The head rolled sideways on the stones.	10

Book 3. (22 results) Priest-Kings of Gor

Chapter #	Sentence #	Quote	Confidence
1	96	I myself had traveled in a ship of the Priest-Kings which had twice carried me to this world; I had seen their power so subtly exercised as to alter the movements of a compass needle, so grossly demonstrated as to destroy a city, leaving behind not even the stones of what had once been a dwelling pl...	10
7	61	My footsteps rang hollowly on the stones of the floor.	10
9	4	The stones of the floor are hard and the Gorean nights are cold and it is a rare girl who, when unchained in the morning, does not seek more dutifully to serve her master.	10
9	7	Thus when she has been irritable or otherwise troublesome even a Free Companion may find herself at the foot of the couch looking forward to a pleasant night on the stones, stripped, with neither mat nor blanket, chained to a slave ring precisely as though she were a lowly slave girl.	10
9	199	In that moment I sensed once more that slightly acrid scent which I had experienced in the corridors beyond the chamber, and I pressed my mouth hard into Vika's until her lips were cut by my teeth and I had pressed her back until only my arm kept her from falling to the stones of the floor, and I he...	10
9	226	She lowered her head to the stones and wept.	10
13	11	Scents, of course, will fade in time, but the specially prepared synthetic products of the Priest-Kings can last for thousands of years and, in the long run, will surely outlast the fading print of human books, the disintegrating celluloid of our films, perhaps even the carved, weathering stones so ...	10
17	35	"Perhaps you would like a supply of scarce metals and stones?" "No," I said.	10
17	112	I, in the very Nest of Priest-Kings, was more free than he who walked the stones of some road in the bright sun, somewhere beyond the palisade, far from the mountains of Priest-Kings yet still in the shadow of the Sardar.	10
18	91	I was somewhat annoyed to find the Home Stones, taken so seriously in the cities of Gor that a man might be slain if he did not rise when speaking of the Home Stone of his city, so airily dismissed by the lofty Sarm.	10
21	36	Grinding out the Mul-Torch on the stones, I crouched down with them behind some of this debris and together we watched the door.	10
23	62	"Forgive me!" I fell to my knees beside her and thrust the Mul-Torch into a space between two stones in the floor.	10
24	20	I seized the Mul-Torch from between the stones where I had placed it and, with a great shout, thrust it towards the creature's face.	10
30	84	To the females of Misk's forces he offered gold, jewelry, precious stones, delicious silks, the permission to allow their hair to grow, and male slaves, the latter again to be provided after the projected defeat of Misk's forces.	10
31	100	Misk covered my body with his own and then with his great strength, reared up, stones falling from his back like water from the body of a swimmer.	10
31	110	I climbed over the fallen stones and ran from the room and leaped on the first transportation disk I could find.	10
31	164	More stones fell from the ceiling of the chamber now, clattering and bouncing off the surface of the blue, scarred seething dome.	10
31	176	I could not leap to the sides, for there was only the smooth sheer curve of the blue globe and I would slide to my death and fall like one of the stones from the roof above to the dusty, smoking rubble below.	10
32	41	A great opening, from the sides of which stones still fell, had appeared in the ceiling of the Nest complex, opening the thick, numerous strata above it until at last through that rupture could be seen the beautiful calm sky of the world above.	10
32	88	We stood now on the uneven, shifting stones of the floor.	10
32	197	With uncanny speed it seemed we almost floated to a tunnel entrance and I looked behind us and saw the ceiling descending with incredible softness, almost like a snowfall of stones.	10
32	341	"We will cover the body with stones," I said.	10

3	105	"But I am of the Caste of Warriors," I said, "of a high city and we do not stain our spears for the stones of men—not even such stones as these".	10
3	85	Last to approach me was the warrior of the Paravaci, with his hood and cape of white fur, and the glistening broad necklace of precious stones encircling his throat.	10
3	91	"Do you not covet the stones," he prodded, "these riches?" "No," I said.	10
3	97	"They are probably false stones," I said, "amber droplets, the pearls of the Vosk sorp, the polished shell of the Tamber clam, glass colored and cut in Ar for trade with ignorant southern peoples".	10
3	100	"Regard the worth of those stones!" he cried.	10
7	3	The hundred, rather than eight, bosk that drew his wagon had been unyoked; they were huge, red bosk; their horns had been polished and their coats glistened from the comb and oils; their golden nose rings were set with jewels; necklaces of precious stones hung from the polished horns.	10
7	210	There must be others—others, who did not wish me to succeed in my work, who wished Priest-Kings, the race, to die, others who were capable even of bringing humans from Earth for their purposes—technologically advanced—others who were, perhaps, cautiously, invisibly, at war with ...	10
17	13	I was puzzled by the manner in which the heat and humidity were introduced to the room, for I saw no vents nor cauldrons of boiling water, or devices for releasing drops of water on heated plates or stones.	10
20	8	It is difficult to fire from the outside, and the roundness—like the roundness of Gorean towers in general—tends to increase the amount of oblique hits from catapult stones.	10
21	3	I had spent my last tarn disk to buy a couple of handfuls of tiny stones, many of them of little or no value; yet their weight in my pouch gave me some pretext for being in the city.	10
21	38	Before leaving the wagons I had joined them briefly on their march, long enough to purchase my peddler's disguise and the pound or so of stones which was to complete it.	10
21	49	As I hobbled through the city of Turia, one eye half shut, staring at the street as though I hoped to find a lost copper tarn disk among the stones, I made my way toward the compound of Saphrar of Turia.	10
21	64	To my chagrin I was not admitted into the compound, but my pitiful stock of almost worthless stones was examined outside the gate by a steward in the company of two armed warriors.	10
21	65	It took him only a few moments to discover the value of the stones and, when he did, with a cry of disgust, he hurled them away from the gate into the dust, and the two warriors, while I pretended fright and pain, belabored me with the hilts of their weapons.	10
21	67	I hobbled after the stones, and fell to my knees in the dust, scrabbling after them, moaning and crying aloud.	10
21	113	Downstairs the wooden screens that had separated the shop from the street had been splintered apart; the counter had been broken and the ovens ruined, their oval domes shattered, their iron doors twisted from their hinges; even the top stones on the two grain mills had been thrown to the floor and b...	10
21	122	"I have very little," I said, taking the pouch and spilling the stones in a glittering if not very valuable heap on the small table in her central room.	10
21	141	"Is this truly all you have?" she asked, pointing at the pile of stones.	10
21	195	She leaned over the parapet, looking skeptically down at the stones some hundred feet below.	10
24	22	During the day and night, taking hours of sleep where we could, sometimes on the rugs of the palace of Phanius Turmus, sometimes on the stones of the streets by watch fires, Harold and I, at Kamchak's orders, performed a variety of tasks, sometimes joining in the fighting, sometimes acting as liaiso...	10
26	1	The Egg of Priest-Kings In the dampness and darkness long before dawn the forces of Kamchak, crowding the streets of Turia in the vicinity of Saphrar's compound, waited silently, like dark shapes on the stones; here and there the glint of a weapon or accouterment could be made out in the fading lig...	10

5	730	She lay there on the stones, half-stripped, turned away, bound hand and foot, her throat fastened to the slave ring by the heavy collar and chain.	10
6	121	There was a long, incredibly weird, horrifying scream, coming from far away, and yet seeming to penetrate the very stones of the hall where we enjoyed ourselves.	10
8	2	She was, of course, precisely where I had left her, though she had managed to lie on her side on the stones and get one or two Ahn sleep that night.	10
12	194	He shoved the heads of both to the stones of the floor.	10
12	197	She said nothing but stood there, wrists braceleted behind her back, locked in place, watching the approach of the iron, observing the graceful, white-hot character at the iron's termination; she screamed uncontrollably when the iron marked her, firmly, decisively for about three Ihn; and then she s...	10
12	221	Flaminius rose to his feet, leaving the two girls lying on the stones, sobbing.	10
12	238	Sura spat on the stones before Elizabeth.	10
12	322	"Kneel," said Sura, pointing to the stones before her feet.	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.	10
12	369	At one corner in the descending ramp there was a small knot of young men, weavers by their garments, who were gambling with the inked knucklebones of verr, shaking them in a small leather cup and spilling them to the stones.	10
15	289	Phyllis leaped upon her and in an instant the two girls were rolling and scratching on the stones, screaming at one another.	10
16	177	He glared down at Phyllis, who, this time, did not meet his eyes but looked down at the stones of the ramp on which she knelt.	10
17	69	Suddenly the two girls on the ankle ropes jerked on their ropes and I fell heavily forward, spilling the wine to the stones.	10
17	84	Then while the girls shrieked and the long-legged girl cried out in rage I swept her into my arms and leaped into the small room, where I dropped her to the stones and spun about, throwing the door shut and bolting it.	10
17	280	Lana landed with a considerable bump on the stones of the hall, the wine flying backward.	10
17	282	Lana scrambled to her feet, angry, her pitcher of wine set aside on the wet, red stones.	10
17	525	Behind her the men began crying out, watching the tumbling of the knucklebones on the stones of the floor.	10
17	535	She was kneeling on the stones, bent over, her head down, the hair falling forward, clad only in the bit of red silk, her wrists braceleted behind her back.	10
17	539	I looked from face to face, and then I shook the knucklebones and scattered them, the four of them, on the stones at my feet.	10
18	15	There was an intense eruption of needlelike sparks and Sura screamed in pain and fell stumbling to one side, weeping, crying out on the stones of the floor.	10
18	22	It passed to the left of my head, struck the wall with an explosion of sparks and lay burning on the stones.	10
18	281	Suddenly there was a wild cry from behind the door, of almost maniacal intensity, and I thought I heard something moving on the stones behind it, uncontrollable, clawed.	10
18	345	"Touch me!" But the males lay in drunken sleep on the stones.	10
18	475	At this distance the bolts would pass through my body, shattering against the stones behind me.	10
19	20	The purpose of the blocks, which are used where the streets are curbed, is to provide stepping stones for crossing the street when there have been heavy rains.	10
19	28	Those who jeered me or sported with their straps and stones would have little reason for not thinking me slave.	10
19	46	I stumbled again, on one of the large, broad, flat stepping stones, and fell forward and was jerked by the chain tearing at the back of my neck, and struggled again to my feet, hearing through the thick layers of leather in the slave hood the laughter of the guards, as though far away.	10
19	51	I heard two girls laugh and I felt my ankles seized and held while small hands thrust on my back, taking me by surprise and throwing me heavily forward; I struck my shoulder on the back of the cart and the booted foot of a Warrior thrust me from the cart and I fell to my knees on the stones; when I ...	10

13	219	It had rained the night before and, here and there, there were puddles among the stones of the street.	10
14	98	Fires were being stoked to heat pitch and stones; bundles of tarred javelins would be shaken out near the springals and light catapults.	10
15	764	In rage I hurled the blade away and it struck the stones of the wall thirty feet across the room and clattered to the floor, and I sank to my knees weeping, my head in my hands.	10
16	29	In that overcrowded desert of hypocrisies and hysterical, meaningless violences, she would surely wither and blacken, like some rare and beautiful plant of the marshes uprooted and thrust down among stones to die.	10
17	58	Thus the round ships might, hopefully, be able to envelop their formation, surround it, and attack on the flanks, with their not inconsiderable barrage of flaming javelins, heated stones, burning pitch and showers of crossbow bolts.	10
18	522	We heard grappling irons with knotted ropes fly over the parapet, scrape across the stones, and wedge in the crenels.	10
18	528	I caught sight of the boy, Fish, running past, a spear held over his head in both hands, and heard a horrible cry, long and wailing, ending with the abrupt striking of a body far below on the stones.	10
18	539	They picked up stones from the roof of the keep, and ran to the walls, to hurl them at point-blank range against the men climbing.	10
18	581	We heard the rush of hundreds of feet on the stones below.	10
18	588	The girls took up stones and swords, and stood beside us.	10
18	595	We heard the men nearing us, on the other side of the wall, the scraping of swords and spears on the vertical stones of the keep.	10
18	617	And now archers were running down the side walls, and leaping to other roofs, that every point at the foot of the keep might be within the assailing orbit of the string-flung missiles, and the girls, and the men, too, flung stones from the top of the keep down on the men trying to hide behind it, an...	10

8	809	The "stones" are usually pebbles or beads, but in the cities one can buy small polished, carved boxes containing ten "stones," the quality of which might vary from polished ovoid stones, with swirling patterns, to gems worth the ransom of a merchant's daughter.	10
