14	1	Tajima and I Hold Converse "You are quick," said Tajima, lowering the wooden blade in the dojo.	10
15	391	I had given Tajima one of the rubies I had retained from the Steel World, that Nodachi might be compensated for his services, but Tajima had returned the stone to me.	10
16	177	In a moment I dispatched Tajima and Pertinax, whom I had had train with Tajima, to pursue the fugitive, whom they had not even seen.	10
8	1	Tajima; A Woman of Earth is to be Presented to Lord Nishida It was now the next morning.	10
8	128	"I am Tajima," he said.	10
8	137	Tajima seemed startled.	10
8	144	"She is a free woman?" said Tajima.	10
8	146	"What of the dark-haired collar-girl?" asked Tajima.	10
8	150	"I was told to expect two free men and a slave," said Tajima, "but I find two free men, and two slaves".	10
8	153	"Lord Nishida," said Tajima, "is fond of yellow-haired collar-girls".	10
8	165	"Wait, please," said Tajima.	10
8	167	"If there is a confusion in this matter," said Tajima, "it will be clarified, three days from today, at the camp".	10
8	168	"'Three days'!" exclaimed Miss Wentworth! "Two days with men," said Tajima, "three days with females".	10
8	176	"'Earth'?" said Tajima.	10
8	178	I did not know if Tajima was familiar with the Second Knowledge, or only the First, or, indeed, even if these distinctions were appropriate in his case.	10
8	181	I detected a brief flicker of displeasure in the eyes of Tajima, but his countenance, almost instantly, resumed its attitude of almost solicitous attention.	10
8	182	I did not know Tajima, nor was I familiar with his background, but I sensed that he was of a sort which might be acutely sensitive, perhaps pathologically so, to the way in which he was treated.	10
8	183	Rougher, bluffer fellows might have discounted or dismissed Pertinax's rudeness as mere tastelessness or stupidity, or even found it amusing, but I did not think that this would be the case with Tajima.	10
8	186	"He is tired, and upset," I said to Tajima.	10
8	200	"I am sorry," said Pertinax to Tajima.	10
8	204	"I am the fool," said Pertinax to Tajima, in Gorean, "not you.	10
8	208	Tajima, interestingly, looked to me.	10
8	211	Tajima turned to Pertinax.	10
8	217	"I am not a fool," said Tajima to Pertinax.	10
8	219	"There is no ship," said Tajima.	10
8	222	"No ship," said Tajima.	10
8	224	"It is you who are the fools," said Tajima.	10
8	226	"If it exists," said Tajima, "it is being applied elsewhere, otherwise than to fill purses such as yours".	10
8	228	"I shall," said Tajima.	10
8	233	"That is possible," said Tajima, politely.	10
8	237	"I am sure he will," said Tajima, politely.	10
8	238	It was interesting to me that Tajima seemed to take no umbrage whatsoever at the attitude and words of Miss Wentworth.	10
8	240	Tajima seemed to consider her insult as nothing to be dealt with within the context of honor, though perhaps, I supposed, it might be dealt with, and suitably, outside of that context, perhaps as one might see fit to deal with the behavior of a small, naughty animal.	10
8	241	"You have been unaccommodating, even insolent," said Miss Wentworth to Tajima.	10
8	243	"Your dress is quite short," observed Tajima, as politely as ever.	10
8	252	"I will be very pleased to see him!" "I think he will be pleased to see you, as well," said Tajima.	10
8	254	"Yes," said Tajima, "I think you should hope that".	10
8	256	"It will not go well with you, if he is disappointed," said Tajima.	10
8	258	Tajima then turned to Pertinax.	10
8	262	"Where?" "Anywhere you wish," said Tajima.	10
8	276	"As you wish," said Tajima to Pertinax.	10
8	278	"No," said Tajima.	10
8	281	Then Tajima turned to me.	10
8	286	"I serve," said Tajima.	10
8	288	"Then," said Tajima, "I think it would be well for him to present her to Lord Nishida.	10
8	291	"Precisely," said Tajima.	10
8	304	"Untie my hands! Take this degrading rope from my neck!" "If would be better if they were hooded," said Tajima.	10
8	307	"Turn them about," said Tajima.	10
8	345	"We should be on our way," said Tajima.	10
8	356	"You are from Earth," said Tajima.	10
9	2	"I regret my unimportance," said Tajima.	10
9	4	With a courteous bow, Tajima withdrew.	10
9	49	Once in the camp, with the license of Tajima, whom we took as our mentor and guide in these matters, we had freed the girls of their impediments, removing the hoods and leashes, and then unbinding their small wrists.	10
9	51	"I am a free woman," had said Miss Wentworth to Tajima, rubbing her wrists.	10
9	54	"I am sure you will not appear before him so garbed," said Tajima, politely, and left, quietly, as was his wont.	10
9	371	If some women were slaves, and wished to be slaves, and loved being owned, and wanted to be at the feet of masters, why should she object? What was it to her? "Have I come at an inopportune time?" inquired Tajima.	10
9	374	"Lord Nishida," said Tajima, "regrets the delay, but he was awaiting an envoy, one from exalted personages".	10
9	381	"Your slave is very pretty," said Tajima, noting Cecily.	10
9	392	"Do white women make pleasing slaves?" asked Tajima.	10
9	396	"Bring me something suitable!" "I have," said Tajima, who held, over his left forearm, what appeared to be, arranged in several narrow folds, a sheet of rep cloth.	10
9	398	"Outside," said Tajima, "there are three tubs, filled with hot water, in which you may soak, and enjoy yourselves.	10
9	402	"Interesting," said Tajima.	10
9	405	"No?" asked Tajima.	10
9	407	"You do not wish to bathe?" asked Tajima, surprised.	10
9	410	"We shall proceed immediately then," said Tajima.	10
9	413	"A most suitable suggestion," said Tajima.	10
9	417	"I will send two men to conduct you to the audience," said Tajima to Miss Wentworth.	10
9	419	"As you wish," said Tajima.	10
9	422	"It is not customary," said Tajima.	10
9	423	I then accompanied Tajima from the hut, as did Pertinax, save that he waited discreetly outside, until Miss Wentworth would be ready to attend the audience.	10
9	432	"These would have bathed you," said Tajima.	10
9	437	"You may look upon them as you wish," said Tajima.	10
9	444	"They were both free women of Ar, even of high station," said Tajima.	10
9	447	"I have heard that," said Tajima.	10
9	456	What might be, I wondered, the interest of Priest-Kings, or Kurii, in this area, at this time? "We are a formal, traditional people," said Tajima.	10
9	463	"We have had them for centuries," said Tajima.	10
9	473	"One slave to bathe you," said Tajima, one to bathe Pertinax".	10
9	475	"Assuredly," said Tajima, "but is it not pleasant to be bathed by a naked slave?" "Yes," I said.	10
9	476	"The small pleasures of life," said Tajima, "are not to be scorned".	10
9	478	"Besides," said Tajima, "the act is beneficial for the women, as well.	10
9	483	"Your slave," said Tajima, "would use your tub, after you had finished".	10
9	491	"Do not be dismayed," said Tajima, "it is from the pavilion of Lord Nishida".	10
9	493	"It is," said Tajima.	10
10	7	The longer of the two swords was not unlike that carried by Tajima, thrust in his belt, edge uppermost.	10
10	15	"You have made the acquaintance, of course," he added, "of our trusted and loyal servitor, Tajima".	10
10	19	Tajima was standing behind me, to my right.	10
10	55	I wondered if they were examples of the "contract women" of which Tajima had spoken.	10
10	108	"Two met our friend, Tarl Cabot, as planned, and brought him to the reserve, where contact took place between him and Tajima," he said.	10
10	121	"Tajima," said Lord Nishida, quietly.	10
10	122	"Yes," said Tajima.	10
10	125	Why did you not kill him?" "I was reluctant to stain my blade with inferior blood, that of a weakling," said Tajima.	10
10	129	Tajima bowed his head, slightly, acknowledging this judgment of Lord Nishida.	10
10	135	"Put a sword in his hand, and put him against our servitor, Tajima".	10
10	146	Tajima then backed away from him, and, smoothly, drew forth his own weapon, which he gripped with two hands, and assumed what, for such a weapon, was apparently an on-guard position.	10
10	156	Tajima moved toward Pertinax, and, twice, feinted toward him.	10
10	158	"You will now kill him," said Lord Nishida to Tajima.	10
10	159	I recalled Tajima was in training.	10
10	160	Tajima turned away from Pertinax, and faced Lord Nishida.	10
10	162	Tajima had his back to Pertinax.	10
10	165	Tajima seemed wholly at ease, even disgusted, certainly indolent.	10
10	170	Instantly Tajima had whirled about, his sword ready to fend a blow.	10
10	180	Tajima returned his sword to his belt.	10
10	191	Lord Nishida then looked to Tajima.	10
10	197	Tajima bowed politely, and then motioned for Pertinax to follow him, and went toward the threshold of the pavilion.	10
10	198	Shortly thereafter, a small figure, completely covered, from head to foot, wholly concealed in a large sheet of white rep-cloth, was conducted forward, a guard on each side of it, Pertinax a little before it, on its left, and Tajima in the background.	10
10	253	Lord Nishida made a tiny motion with his right hand, and Tajima put his hands, gently, to that portion of the sheet which was wrapped about the head and face of the bundled figure.	10
10	258	Tajima then, carefully, lifted the sheet away from the figure's head, and it was, indeed, Miss Wentworth, who shook her head, angrily, as though to free her head even the more swiftly from the folds of the sheet.	10
10	313	Tajima, carefully, unbuckled the gag and handed it to the guard on Miss Wentworth's left, who slipped it in his pouch.	10
10	316	"Please," said Tajima, "do not speak yet.	10
10	323	"One moment," said Tajima.	10
10	326	"Please," said Tajima, politely.	10
10	332	Tajima stepped back, and seemed satisfied with his work.	10
10	334	Tajima then turned to Pertinax.	10
10	364	"A lord," said Tajima.	10
10	366	"Yes," said Tajima.	10
10	395	This displeased Tajima, but the girl did not seem disconcerted by his disapproval.	10
10	397	The woman's name was Sumomo, and Tajima, I would later learn, was interested in her contract, which he could not afford.	10
10	543	"If you persist in this matter," said Tajima, "it may be necessary to once again restrict your speech".	10
10	551	Then Lord Nishida addressed Tajima.	10
10	554	Tajima held the sheet in place.	10
10	607	"Now," said Lord Nishida to Tajima, "let us see her".	10
10	609	Tajima lifted a finger, and each guard, of those flanking Miss Wentworth, and who had held her, generally, respectively, by the upper arms, now each took a wrist, and, a moment later, an upper arm.	10
10	613	"Please, please," protested Tajima.	10
10	653	Tajima had retrieved the sheet and had now refolded it, and held it over his arm.	10
10	710	"I fear, Lord Nishida," said Tajima to Lord Nishida, "the woman is unutterably stupid".	10
10	715	"The whip will teach her, and quickly," said Tajima, with, oddly, a glance at Sumomo, the contract woman who was on the right, as one would look to the dais.	10
10	717	She sneered at Tajima.	10
10	775	"And this one," said Tajima, who had had, from the beginning, as I understood it, reservations pertaining to the former Miss Wentworth, "as she would be unworthy meat for larls or sleen, may be bound and cast into the garbage pit for the delectation of swarming urts".	10
11	44	Also, I had learned from Tajima, it is found, here and there, in the home, so to speak, of the "strange men".	10
11	51	In any event Tajima, when he put the slave before him on her knees, in the stable, to be named, told her, in English, that there be no mistaking the matter, and she clearly understand what was being done to her, what 'Saru' meant, its connotations, and such.	10
11	65	"You are no longer Miss Margaret Wentworth," Tajima explained to her.	10
11	341	It was shown to me by Tajima, for he often visits its vicinity, though for what reason other than the water I know not.	10
12	1	The Plaza of Training "You have trainers?" I asked Tajima.	10
12	7	"No," said Tajima, "you are a rider, and a warrior".	10
12	10	Tajima seized my arm.	10
12	13	"No," said Tajima.	10
12	18	"Now, and again," said Tajima, "some will flee the camp".	10
12	21	"The camp, I gather, is not to be fled?" "No," said Tajima, "it is not permitted".	10
12	23	"They are afraid," said Tajima.	10
12	26	"That, too," said Tajima.	10
12	28	"True," said Tajima.	10
12	35	"For purposes of war, of course," said Tajima.	10
12	37	"Elsewhere," said Tajima.	10
12	44	"Elsewhere," said Tajima, politely.	10
12	45	"Your forces," I said to Tajima, "seem to have means.	10
12	46	Why do you not hire a tarn cavalry from another city, say, Treve, in the Voltai?" "Such a cavalry," said Tajima, "would be theirs, not ours.	10
12	51	"Yes," said Tajima, "but from the vicinity of Thentis, from the mountains of Thentis.	10
12	55	"Four of my people," said Tajima, "fled back from the tarns, and two found they could not approach them".	10
12	57	"But not acceptable," said Tajima.	10
12	59	"I do not see how honor is involved in this sort of thing," I said, "courage perhaps, but how honor?" "For us, honor is involved," said Tajima.	10
12	64	"We are near the place of training," said Tajima.	10
12	76	How could it be otherwise, for I was disembarked on the northern coast according to the exact coordinates of Priest-Kings, secret coordinates doubtless, was there met by two agents, doubtless also in the service of Priest-Kings, though that apparently unknown to them, was conducted to a reserve of P...	10
12	164	With the new dynasty in the Nest had they not turned against me? Had I not been imprisoned in the holding capsule on the Prison Moon, in such a manner as to torture me, and jeopardize my honor? Might I not, then, of my own will, so treated, have turned from the Sardar to the Steel Worlds? "Our loyal...	10
12	165	I gathered the interview was then concluded, and I turned and left the pavilion, followed by Tajima.	10
12	166	Outside the pavilion I had turned to Tajima.	10
12	169	* * * * Tajima and I emerged from the path which led to a great plaza cleared in the forest.	10
12	207	"True," said Tajima.	10
12	209	"Yes," said Tajima, "but he who just fell, it seems, missed the ring".	10
12	211	"So let him improve his skills," said Tajima.	10
12	214	I saw another fellow, one of the people of Tajima, fall from the plank, and then submit, unprotestingly, to being shouted at and beaten.	10
12	215	"I was not trained like this," I told Tajima.	10
12	216	"It was not necessary," said Tajima.	10
12	225	"No," said Tajima.	10
12	235	"In the vicinity of tarns," said Tajima, "it is best for women to be hooded and bound".	10
12	242	"They are rather like stable sluts?" asked Tajima.	10
12	246	"The men," said Tajima, "are brought food by tharlarion wagon, and, if they wish, they may visit the cook houses in the main camp".	10
12	248	"For slave hunger, of course," said Tajima.	10
12	275	"I think so," said Tajima.	10
12	296	"I wanted you to see the training area, and the tarns," said Tajima.	10
12	313	"I am pleased," said Tajima.	10
12	316	"What of the riders?" asked Tajima.	10
12	318	"True," said Tajima.	10
12	321	"So it will be," said Tajima.	10
12	322	I was then prepared to leave the plaza, but, in turning about, I saw a sight which, to me, if not to Tajima, and his people, seemed exceedingly odd.	10
12	324	"One is preparing to recover his honor," said Tajima.	10
12	325	On a small platform, in a white kimono, one of Tajima's people, which I will now refer to as the Pani, as that is their word for themselves, knelt.	10
12	328	"Do not intrude," said Tajima.	10
12	330	"It is sometimes difficult to perform the act," said Tajima.	10
12	334	"Do not interfere!" cried Tajima, whose suave placidity was for once not at his disposal.	10
12	335	I thrust Tajima back and strode to the figure on the platform, who had now loosened his robe and drawn forth a small dagger from the sheath.	10
12	345	"Allow him dignity!" begged Tajima.	10
12	347	"Who are you to stop it?" asked Tajima, once again in command of his emotions.	10
12	360	"I am commander, I am captain," I told Tajima.	10
12	361	"This man is a coward," said Tajima.	10
12	364	"He fled from a tarn," said Tajima.	10
12	366	"Do not interfere," said Tajima.	10
12	370	"Why not?" asked Tajima, genuinely interested.	10
12	373	"It is our way," said Tajima.	10
12	375	"You, Tarl Cabot, tarnsman," said Tajima.	10
12	377	"You are captain," said Tajima, quietly.	10
12	379	"It is better to lose such men," said Tajima.	10
12	381	"It is wrong for you to interfere in this, Tarl Cabot, tarnsman," said Tajima.	10
12	385	"That is not our way," said Tajima.	10
12	387	"Doubtless," said Tajima.	10
12	389	"Yes," said Tajima.	10
12	392	"Yes," said Tajima.	10
12	398	"I will see that your views on this matter are conveyed to all," said Tajima.	10
12	402	"This pertains only to your command, you understand," said Tajima.	10
12	404	"That is true," smiled Tajima.	10
14	5	Tajima and I bowed to one another, and then sat, side by side, cross-legged, toward the back wall.	10
14	19	"May we speak?" I asked Tajima.	10
14	20	"Not now," said Tajima, softly.	10
14	34	"Now?" I asked Tajima.	10
14	35	"No," said Tajima.	10
14	106	That these men of the Pani, such as Lord Nishida and Tajima, and their fellows, so unusual to continental Gor, or even the western islands, should be here, whether in Brundisium to the south, or here in the northern forests, was to me, at the time, inexplicable.	10
14	124	Outside the dojo I spoke to Tajima.	10
14	132	"Oh?" said Tajima.	10
14	134	"Is it not I who am to spy on you?" asked Tajima.	10
14	141	"You have noted my interest in her," observed Tajima.	10
14	143	"It is hard to control such things," said Tajima.	10
14	148	"She is a contract woman," said Tajima.	10
14	152	"No," said Tajima, "but they are not of the Pani".	10
14	167	"And do you not think she might look pretty as a slave beast?" "Yes," said Tajima, "I would think so".	10
14	171	"That is not his name," said Tajima.	10
14	177	"He is ronen," said Tajima.	10
14	181	"Ah, Tarl Cabot, tarnsman," said Tajima, "how little you know of these things".	10
14	183	"Loyalty," said Tajima, "is required of the warrior.	10
14	193	"Your weapons, your skills, your talents, Tarl Cabot, tarnsman," said Tajima, "are not ours".	10
14	195	"There are more than weapons," said Tajima.	10
14	199	"He is a weakling," said Tajima.	10
14	201	"Not all strength," said Tajima, "is of the body".	10
14	203	"Only if I permitted it," said Tajima.	10
14	208	"The wind," smiled Tajima, "does not enter boxes with lids".	10
14	210	"I could kill him, easily," said Tajima.	10
14	212	"Yes," said Tajima, "now".	10
14	214	"So that his skills might one day equal or exceed mine?" asked Tajima.	10
14	216	"I do not think that would happen," said Tajima.	10
14	229	"Fear is not acceptable," said Tajima.	10
15	390	The arrangements had been made through the thoughtful offices of Tajima.	10
15	393	"One does not sell life and death," he had informed Tajima.	10
16	24	To my left was Tajima.	10
16	235	"Tajima and Pertinax," I said.	10
16	275	Two tarns, returning, those of Tajima and Pertinax, ahead of the swarm, streaked overhead, and then turned, to take their place in the ascending formation.	10
17	71	I saw one of our fellows, I think Tajima, take a mounting tarnsman, climbing to the saddle, with the temwood lance.	10
18	1	Fighting Continues; We Report to Lord Nishida; The Stable I brought the tarn down, to the field of training, followed by Tajima and Pertinax, and Ichiro, my first, or lead, signalman.	10
18	19	"They will," said Tajima.	10
18	47	I called to my side Tajima and Pertinax, and some dozen or so mercenaries, who well knew the sword.	10
18	49	"I think so," said Tajima.	10
18	56	"You, too, buckler and blade," I said to Tajima and Pertinax.	10
18	58	"Nodachi," said Tajima, "could deflect a quarrel with the blade of even a companion sword".	10
18	60	"No," said Tajima.	10
18	65	"We will report to Lord Nishida," I said to Tajima.	10
18	68	"Please, Tarl Cabot, tarnsman," said Tajima, politely, "may I have him?" "Yes," I said.	10
18	71	"Do not do swords with Tajima," I said to Pertinax.	10
18	81	I then, with some dozen or so men, mercenaries, together with Tajima and Pertinax, addressed myself to the path which led to the housing area.	10
18	83	"It seems we will not need our blades," said Tajima.	10
18	90	"I would see if Sumomo is alive," said Tajima.	10
18	189	To be sure, neither of the contract women of Lord Nishida, one of whom was Sumomo, who was apparently of interest to Tajima, and the other of whom was Hana, as I later discovered, I was pleased to note, had adopted this practice.	10
18	238	I caught sight of Tajima, now, again, in the clearing.	10
18	242	I understood this to be an insult of some sort, and I noted that Tajima's body, briefly, stiffened with rage.	10
18	244	"I fear the contract woman," I said, "did not treat Tajima well".	10
18	252	"Why should she treat Tajima badly?" I asked.	10
18	278	What man, after all, does not, in his deepest heart, want to own a woman? What could begin to compare with such a property? Perhaps, I thought, he has dreamed of another woman, a different slave, his, helpless at his feet? Would he have the courage, the will, the determination, the kindness, the com...	10
18	285	"Tajima," I said, "is now of Gor".	10
18	301	"Tajima is now approaching," said Pertinax.	10
18	303	Sumomo, I noted, perhaps alerted by Hana, had turned about, to watch Tajima withdraw.	10
18	305	Tajima did not look back at her.	10
18	317	I supposed it would take some time for Tajima to nurse his wounds.	10
18	320	Tajima had now joined us.	10
18	321	"You saw?" asked Tajima.	10
18	323	"She is Pani," said Tajima.	10
18	328	But Tajima was silent.	10
18	329	I suspected, but did not remark it, that Sumomo's treatment of Tajima might have obscure motivations, motivations more subtle and deeper than a mere scorn for one she might despise as having been extracted from an alien world.	10
18	331	I did not speak these things, of course, to Tajima.	10
18	337	"No," said Tajima, now at my side, as I moved to approach the hut.	10
18	341	"That is Lord Nishida," said Tajima, indicating the figure in the fearsome mask with the bloodied sword.	10
18	343	"It is," said Tajima.	10
18	345	"Lord Nishida is a great warrior," said Tajima.	10
18	347	"Certainly," said Tajima.	10
18	350	"We do not require prisoners," said Tajima.	10
18	370	"Subside, Tarl Cabot, tarnsman," said Tajima.	10
18	515	"How then will the feast be served?" inquired Tajima.	10
18	530	I supposed Tajima had been interested in whether or not Sumomo might serve at such a feast.	10
18	535	"It seems urts have been discovered in the stable," said Tajima.	10
18	544	Tajima and I then, following Pertinax, hurried toward the stable.	10
19	38	Tajima looked at me.	10
19	88	"Master," said Tajima, bowing deeply, which greeting was politely returned.	10
19	117	"Master," said Tajima, bowing.	10
19	223	"Men have returned from the tarn cots," said Tajima.	10
19	226	Tajima nodded, and disappeared into the gloom, darkness now about.	10
19	235	Tajima joined Pertinax and myself.	10
19	237	"I am Pani," said Tajima, in English, "but not every custom of my people appeals to me".	10
19	242	"That does not appeal to me either," said Tajima, again in English.	10
19	249	"Doubtless," said Tajima.	10
19	252	"Vanity is pleasant," said Tajima, "but it is dangerous, as well.	10
19	255	"Tajima," he smiled.	10
19	258	"Victory is the fruit of victory," said Tajima.	10
19	259	"Tajima?" I asked.	10
19	263	"Not Nodachi," said Tajima.	10
19	265	"No," said Tajima, "he is not as other men".	10
19	267	"Perhaps," said Tajima.	10
19	269	"The recovery of honor," said Tajima.	10
19	278	"There is no quarter," said Tajima.	10
19	291	I then turned to Tajima.	10
19	292	"Tajima," I said, "set watches, and see that most of the men at any given time are at rest.	10
19	295	"Yes, Tarl Cabot, tarnsman," said Tajima.	10
20	20	"I, too," said Tajima.	10
20	23	"This is not the work for a commander," said Tajima.	10
20	25	"The cavalry," said Tajima.	10
20	28	"You forged the weapon," said Tajima.	10
20	30	"Why will you enter the stable?" asked Tajima.	10
20	35	"One who wears our gray?" said Tajima.	10
20	37	"The mercenary, Licinius Lysias of Turmus," said Tajima.	10
20	50	"I do not urge this," said Tajima, "but would it not be wise to enter the stable in force?" "It would be better to first reconnoiter," I said.	10
20	51	"Surely you are not concerned with a slave?" said Tajima, puzzled.	10
20	54	Tajima nodded.	10
20	58	"Ah!" said Tajima.	10
20	74	"Bucklers," I cautioned Tajima and Pertinax.	10
20	122	"What does it matter," said Tajima.	10
20	125	"He is a weakling, and fool," said Tajima, angrily.	10
20	127	"I would have evinced no sign of concern," said Tajima, "and thus she would have been safer than otherwise".	10
20	129	"Perhaps one day," said Tajima.	10
20	155	"Shall we now enter in force?" asked Tajima.	10
20	163	"A clever ruse," smiled Tajima, "worthy of Lord Nishida himself".	10
20	169	"Do not move," I said to Tajima and Pertinax.	10
20	176	There was then the clash of blades, briefly, fiercely, and I entered the stable, rushing within, followed closely by Tajima and Pertinax.	10
20	179	I, and Pertinax and Tajima, halted our advance, abruptly.	10
20	212	Tajima then did so, as well.	10
20	244	"You cannot, Tarl Cabot, tarnsman," said Tajima.	10
20	246	I then turned about, and left the stable, followed by Pertinax and Tajima.	10
21	12	"Lord Nishida will not be pleased," said Tajima, gloomily.	10
21	19	"I do not understand," said Tajima.	10
22	10	"The bota at the saddle," said Tajima.	10
22	12	"And Tassa powder," said Tajima.	10
22	56	"And the slave was quite safe," said Tajima.	10
22	58	"She, too, was unconscious," said Tajima.	10
22	61	Why should he not? Would she not be thirsty, as well? Are animals not watered?" "Yes," said Tajima.	10
22	64	"True," said Tajima.	10
22	70	"Did you not note," asked Tajima, "how she denied being cold, and addressed Licinius Lysias as 'Master'?" "She was frightened," said Pertinax.	10
22	80	"Would you prefer," inquired Tajima, "that the slave was frigid?" "Surely such things are a matter of private concern," said Pertinax.	10
22	84	"You would wish her to be frigid?" asked Tajima, politely.	10
22	94	"The slave is not a free woman," said Tajima.	10
22	114	"Perhaps," said Tajima.	10
22	123	"Lord Nishida will have him crucified," said Tajima.	10
22	125	"I fear that is not practical," said Tajima, "for you are a spy, and traitor".	10
22	127	"You wear the cavalry's gray, and betrayed it," said Tajima.	10
22	132	"You may be tortured before you are crucified," said Tajima.	10
22	148	"One is tied on the cross, closely," said Tajima.	10
22	154	"Impalement would be a Gorean way," I said to Tajima.	10
22	155	"That is barbarous," said Tajima.	10
22	157	"Too, it would be too quick," said Tajima.	10
22	159	"Interesting," said Tajima.	10
22	162	"I have sent for Ashigaru," said Tajima.	10
22	186	"Nadu!" said Tajima, sharply.	10
22	190	"Split your knees," said Tajima.	10
22	192	"Now!" said Tajima.	10
22	194	"Wider!" said Tajima.	10
22	196	The former Miss Wentworth complied, quickly, docilely, with Tajima's command.	10
22	199	"Stay as you are," cautioned Tajima.	10
22	205	"You are the prisoner of Lord Nishida," said Tajima.	10
22	207	"Captain?" asked Tajima.	10
22	209	"Ashigaru will soon be here," said Tajima.	10
22	212	"Yes," said Tajima.	10
22	251	I would not, comfortably, have set Tajima against him, who was skilled, as I had determined in the dojo.	10
22	256	Tajima looked at me, puzzled.	10
22	284	"Surely you were not serious, Tarl Cabot, tarnsman," said Tajima.	10
22	287	"Surely not!" exclaimed Tajima.	10
22	288	"If so," said Licinius, "I beg the sword, its quickness, its mercy!" "No," said Tajima.	10
22	291	"Never!" said Tajima.	10
22	296	"Wait for the Ashigaru," said Tajima.	10
22	298	"Tajima's hand was on the hilt of his gently curved sword.	10
22	300	"No," said Tajima.	10
22	306	"I must report this to Lord Nishida," said Tajima.	10
22	308	"Make it last," said Tajima.	10
22	312	"He is your prisoner," granted Tajima.	10
22	339	In a few moments I had returned to Tajima, Pertinax, and the slave.	10
22	340	"Tarl Cabot, tarnsman," said Tajima, "your knife is not bloody".	10
22	342	"Perhaps you broke his back or neck, or strangled him," said Tajima.	10
22	346	"Lord Nishida will not be pleased," said Tajima.	10
22	348	"Very well, Tarl Cabot, tarnsman," said Tajima.	10
22	376	"Tarl Cabot, tarnsman, is heated, and aroused," said Tajima.	10
22	421	"Ashigaru," said Tajima.	10
22	465	"She is a slave," said Tajima.	10
22	550	"Can you not accept her femininity," asked Tajima, "her needs, her womanhood, her helplessness, her defenselessness, her desire to submit?" "Do not impose your values upon her," I said.	10
22	555	"Let him alone," said Tajima.	10
22	586	"I think you want her, my dear Pertinax," said Tajima, "and as what she is, and should be, a slave".	10
22	587	"Is that not what you have always wanted," I asked, "from the first moment you laid eyes on her, her as a slave?" "I think your desire was so fierce," said Tajima.	10
22	590	"Yes," said Tajima, "and she was selected with care, in compliance with a very special order, one requisitioning a particular sort of slave, one worthy of a being a suitable gift for a shogun".	10
22	610	"The Ashigaru are here," said Tajima.	10
22	612	"It is dark," said Tajima to the officer with the men.	10
22	641	"You will be," said Tajima.	10
22	650	I then bid goodnight to Tajima and returned toward the central camp, and the hut I shared with Pertinax.	10
24	195	"I do not know why I was brought to the forests," I said, "or who saw to my bringing, but I have formed your cavalry, for whatever purpose it might serve, and others, Torgus, Lysander, Tajima, Ichiro, might now command it.	10
25	256	I would seek out Tajima, who had not attended the feast, perhaps because of the absence of Sumomo, and other contract women, or perhaps because of the presence of female slaves.	10
25	275	I expected to find Tajima in the barrack assigned to the guards, whose dispatch and returns he would log, but instead I encountered him crossing the training area, toward the track which led to the main camp area.	10
25	290	"Four Ehn past," said Tajima.	10
25	292	"It is waiting," said Tajima.	10
25	297	"How can that be?" asked Tajima.	10
25	299	"The tarn is waiting," said Tajima.	10
26	15	Might this be some new thread in the obscure tapestry which Lord Nishida, or others, were weaving? A ten would soon be aflight, to search for the overdue guard, whose failure to return when expected had concerned Tajima.	10
26	313	"Tarl Cabot, tarnsman!" cried Tajima.	10
26	317	"Return to camp!" "The guard has not returned!" said Tajima.	10
26	319	"To camp!" "What has occurred, Tarl Cabot, tarnsman?" called Tajima.	10
27	10	The tarns, from the plaza of training, had been early aflight, their squadrons led by Tajima.	10
27	18	I did not doubt that Tajima had reported to Lord Nishida my flight of the preceding late evening, and my seeming encounter with an unidentified tarnsman, an encounter I had refused to explain to him.	10
27	19	I did not begrudge the conveyance of this sort of intelligence to Lord Nishida, nor did I resent Tajima being the modality of its conveyance.	10
27	28	I speculated that Tajima would not have minded having the lovely, haughty Sumomo at his feet, not as a contract woman, of course, but as something far less, and far more desirable.	10
29	29	"Tarl Cabot, tarnsman!" called Tajima, hurrying beside the wagons, toward us.	10
29	38	"Tal," said Tajima, pleasantly.	10
29	39	There is an order to such things, and Tajima, correctly or incorrectly, regarded himself as senior to Pertinax, who was a mere barbarian.	10
29	45	Both he and Tajima bowed as Nodachi passed, going forward.	10
29	48	"He was not with the march, but behind it," said Tajima.	10
29	51	"You are all very filthy," said Tajima.	10
29	59	"How is Sumomo?" asked Tajima.	10
29	61	"Excellent," said Tajima.	10
29	68	"No," said Tajima.	10
29	88	"Yes," said Tajima.	10
29	93	"Quarters have been prepared for you, near the shore, near the cots," said Tajima.	10
29	99	"Beyond that," said Tajima, "though you cannot see them, are several galleys".	10
29	101	"You do not know?" inquired Tajima.	10
29	103	"That," said Tajima, "is the ship of Tersites".	10
31	15	"Pertinax, even Tajima, and Ichiro, and others, have objected," said Lord Nishida.	10
32	7	Pertinax, Tajima, Ichiro, and some others stood with me.	10
32	68	I became aware then, suddenly, that Tajima, Pertinax, Ichiro, and others, stood with me.	10
38	1	The Destruction of the River Camp; Unexpected Cargo is Boarded; The Ship Begins Her Journey "Nodachi is on board," said Tajima, in answer to my question.	10
38	6	"It is cold," said Tajima.	10
38	79	Tajima, who was standing beside me, suddenly stepped back, and bowed.	10
38	83	"Four days," said Tajima.	10
38	86	"I understand," said Tajima.	10
38	106	"I would you were with the cavalry," said Tajima.	10
38	110	Tajima was to command the cavalry in my absence.	10
38	114	"I must return to the cavalry," said Tajima.	10
39	1	A Report is Received; Enemies are Discussed Tajima brought the tarn down, expertly, to the stem castle of the ship, and leapt from the saddle.	10
39	3	Tajima, sent to reconnoiter, had been awaited by Lord Nishida.	10
39	6	"They are waiting for us," said Tajima.	10
39	8	"The skies are clear," said Tajima.	10
39	31	"I think," said Tajima, "they do not realize our nature.	10
39	35	"Do you feel, Tajima," said Lord Nishida, "that the cavalry may deal with such weaponry?" "Yes," he said.	10
39	37	"They are like the sands of the shore," said Tajima.	10
39	43	"Dozens," said Tajima.	10
42	33	"Are you all right?" inquired Tajima.	10
42	47	"Into the water, down!" "Comply!" cried Tajima to the nearest oarsmen.	10
42	55	"Comply," said Tajima, and he himself, followed by Pertinax, entered the water beside the hull, to roll the body of the sleen closer to the hull.	10
42	59	I was aided aboard, again, and Tajima and Pertinax, in the freezing water, encircled the body of the sleen with ropes, and it was lifted aboard.	10
42	63	Tajima and Pertinax were then assisted in boarding.	10
42	70	Tajima, Pertinax, and I, shuddering and miserable, then availed ourselves of blankets.	10
42	75	"This is a sleen," said Tajima, looking down.	10

9	380	"Does the honorable Tajima, swordsman," asked Lord Okimoto, "hold a blade, unhoused, in my presence?" "No, my lord!" said Tajima.	10
4	21	He was also of the Pani, and his name was Tajima.	10
8	60	Its rider, now dismounting, was one of the Pani, a man called Tajima, who was of the retinue of Lord Nishida, but serving in the cavalry.	10
8	76	And if the rider survive, how will he live, afoot, alone, in the cold, in the long night? But the man Tajima had returned.	10
9	251	I saw Tarl Cabot, and his confrere, Pertinax, and the fellow, Tajima, a fine rider, fighting, to protect tarns.	10
9	375	But the man Tajima who had followed Cabot on the ramp had placed himself between Cabot, who, crouched down, was on guard, and the two Pani.	10
9	387	"Is the honorable Tajima, swordsman," asked Lord Okimoto, once more, politely, "authorized to speak for Lord Nishida?" "I am authorized to speak for Lord Nishida," said a voice from the deck, at the top of the ramp.	10
9	423	"He and others fought with us!" exclaimed Tajima.	10
9	424	Lord Okimoto looked at Tajima, with surprise.	10
9	425	"Forgive me, lord," said Tajima, lowering his head.	10
9	451	"May I speak?" asked Tajima.	10
9	453	"Many months ago," said Tajima, "we had been sorely defeated, and driven to the edge of the sea.	10
9	494	I had understood little or nothing of that of which Tajima, the rider, had spoken, that about night, a battle, the waiting at the beach, and such.	10
16	243	Tarl Cabot was forward, on the port side, with his friend, Pertinax, and the Pani tarnsman, Tajima, fighting with our Pani against boarders, who were heaviest in that quarter.	10
16	311	"Tajima!" he called.	10
16	312	"Captain san," said Tajima.	10
16	313	Cabot then spoke hurriedly to Tajima, the tarnsman, in a language I did not recognize.	10
16	315	And Tajima, to my astonishment, responded in what I took to be the same language.	10
19	128	Cabot had now been joined by Pertinax and Tajima, and a number of Pani and armsmen were emerging from the lower decks, forward.	10
22	221	These men were not even in position when Lord Nishida signaled to his left flank and right flank, the left commanded by Tajima, of his retinue, whom I knew primarily as a Pani tarnsman, liaison to, or lieutenant to, Cabot, in the tarn cavalry, and the strange warrior, Nodachi, commanding the right f...	10
27	169	And I did not think that even his students, such as Pertinax and Tajima, the Pani tarnsman, understood the mystery of this unusually skilled, but enigmatic warrior.	10

21	117	It may also be recalled that Lord Yamada, before Tajima and Pertinax departed for their rendezvous with Ichiro, offered each a woman, who might be kept as their own, and, also, that Tajima, to my surprise, and presumably to that of Lord Yamada, expressed a concern as to the comfort of slaves, on wha...	10

61	107	He had had four tarns in his keeping, those on which he, Tajima, Pertinax, Haruki, and myself had ventured south, Haruki behind the saddle of Tajima.	10
1	314	"What of Tajima, he of your former world?" asked Lord Nishida.	10
1	336	"Who know what he sees, or senses?" "It is my understanding," said Lord Okimoto, "that this Tajima, liaison between your command and the cavalry, was lost in the attack on the camp".	10
1	358	"It is regrettable," said Lord Okimoto, "that the liaison, Tajima, of whom you speak so highly, is amongst those lost".	10

4	34	"He was unwilling," said Tajima.	10
4	37	"You must escape from here, you must flee, Tarl Cabot, tarnsman," said Tajima.	10

4	121	Tajima leaned back against the rock.	10
4	139	I knew that Tajima was much interested in buying the contract of Sumomo, but it was not within his means.	10
4	142	She treated Tajima with contempt, even failing to bow to him, despite the differences in their sexes.	10
4	144	Tajima was an intelligent, strong, agile, fine young man.	10
4	161	Her treatment of Tajima had never failed to rankle me.	10
