Ula's collar read 'I am the property of Clitus'; Thurnock had his slave's engraved 'Thura, slave of Thurnock'; I had two collars engraved, one for Midice and one for Telima; both read simply 'I belong to Bosk'. |
10 |
| 8 | 387 |
"I am Thurnock!" he cried. |
10 |
| 8 | 389 |
"Thurnock," he said, "draws the great bow well". |
10 |
| 8 | 446 |
Thurnock, the peasant, and Clitus, the fisherman, approached, holding between them Ho-Hak, bound hand and foot, the heavy collar of the galley slave, with its dangling chain, still riveted about his neck. |
10 |
| 8 | 484 |
"Take him away!" I ordered Thurnock and Clitus, and they dragged Ho-Hak from my presence, taking him back somewhere on the second barge, among other bound slaves. |
10 |
| 8 | 514 |
I looked at Thurnock and Clitus. |
10 |
| 8 | 516 |
Thurnock crossed his great arms on his chest, and nodded his head. |
10 |
| 8 | 520 |
"I," said Thurnock, in a booming voice, "would follow you even to the Cities of Dust". |
10 |
| 8 | 522 |
Thurnock was blue-eyed, Clitus gray-eyed. |
10 |
| 8 | 523 |
Thurnock was a huge man, with arms like the oars of the great galleys; Clitus was slighter, but he had been first oar; he would have great strength, beyond what it might seem. |
10 |
| 8 | 540 |
"The raft is ready," said Thurnock, his body gleaming sweat, wiping a great forearm across his face. |
10 |
| 8 | 543 |
"There is much rence paper," said Thurnock. |
10 |
| 8 | 546 |
"What of slaves?" asked Thurnock. |
10 |
| 8 | 553 |
Thurnock and Clitus regarded me. |
10 |
| 8 | 555 |
A grin broke across the face of Thurnock. |
10 |
| 8 | 638 |
I surveyed the two girls, the blond one and the shorter one, and looked to Thurnock and Clitus. |
10 |
| 8 | 640 |
"Beauties!" said Thurnock. |
10 |
| 8 | 644 |
I looked at Thurnock and Clitus. |
10 |
| 8 | 646 |
"Ha!" cried Thurnock. |
10 |
| 8 | 649 |
In an instant, with peasant knots, Thurnock had lashed them together. |
10 |
| 8 | 664 |
"It is," boomed Thurnock. |
10 |
| 8 | 675 |
Thurnock then took the same long length of binding fiber, one end of which I had fastened about Midice's neck, and, without cutting it, looped and knotted it about the neck of the large, blond, gray-eyed girl, handing the coil then to Clitus, who indicated that the short rence girl should take her p... |
10 |
| 8 | 676 |
"What is your name?" boomed Thurnock to the large girl, who flinched. |
10 |
| 8 | 679 |
"I am Thurnock!" The girl did not seem much pleased by this coincidence. |
10 |
| 8 | 680 |
"I am of the peasants," Thurnock told her. |
10 |
| 8 | 683 |
"The Peasants," cried out Thurnock, his voice thundering over the marsh, "are the ox on which the Home Stone rests!" "But I am of the Rencers!" she wailed. |
10 |
| 8 | 685 |
"No," boomed Thurnock. |
10 |
| 8 | 776 |
Already, Thurnock and Clitus, in loading the raft, had placed on it my helmet, and shield, and the great bow, with its arrows. |
10 |
| 8 | 829 |
Thurnock gave a great laugh. |
10 |
| 8 | 843 |
"I would say," laughed Thurnock, grinning, "kettle and mat!" He had one tooth missing on the upper right. |
10 |
| 9 | 273 |
I threw a silver tarsk, taken from what we had obtained from the slavers in the marsh, to the proprietor of the paga tavern, and took in return one of the huge bottles of paga, of the sort put in the pouring sling, and reeled out of the tavern, making my way along the narrow walkway lining the canal... |
10 |
| 9 | 276 |
"I bring paga!" Thurnock took down the beams from the door, and swung it open. |
10 |
| 9 | 288 |
Thurnock, though in Port Kar, had found a piece of Ka-la-na stock, and had been carving a great bow, the long bow. |
10 |
| 9 | 295 |
I saw that Thurnock had had her put a flower in her hair, a talender. |
10 |
| 9 | 310 |
"Thurnock," cried I, "secure the slaves". |
10 |
| 9 | 316 |
Already Thurnock was putting them in coffle, binding the right wrist of each. |
10 |
| 9 | 317 |
Before we set out we broke open the great bottle of paga, and Thurnock, Clitus and I clashed goblets and emptied them of their swirling fires. |
10 |
| 9 | 320 |
"And then," I cried, "we will return and make a feast!" Thurnock, Clitus and I once more clashed and emptied goblets, and then, leading Midice, first in the coffle, by the lead end of the binding fiber, I stumbled through the door, finding my way down the stairs, with the others, hunting for a smith... |
10 |
| 9 | 330 |
As we walked, Thurnock following, carrying Thura, and Clitus then, Ula weeping in his arms, Midice put her head against my left shoulder, and I felt her tears through my tunic. |
10 |
| 9 | 370 |
Thurnock then seized Thura, pressing his lips upon hers. |
10 |
| 9 | 381 |
"On your feet," boomed Thurnock to Thura, and she leaped frightened to her feet, standing ankle deep in the thick-pile rug. |
10 |
| 9 | 389 |
The musicians began to play, and to the clappings and cries of Thurnock and Clitus, Thura and Ula danced before them. |
10 |
| 9 | 418 |
Then Thura, to my amazement, though a rence girl, dancing, revealed herself similarly to the great Thurnock, he only of the peasants, and he, with a great laugh, swept her from her feet and carried her from the room. |
10 |
| 10 | 42 |
When Clitus, Thurnock and I, and our slaves, had first come to Port Kar, we had taken quarters not far from that holding. |
10 |
| 10 | 112 |
Thurnock and Clitus seemed pleased with Thura and Ula, who now wore expensive silks and jeweled collars. |
10 |
| 10 | 119 |
Generally in the evening I ate with Thurnock and Clitus, with their slaves, and Midice. |
10 |
| 11 | 93 |
I could see, even at the distance, leaping from the prow of the ship to the tiles of the piazza, running across the large, oblique-looking, colored squares toward the Hall of the Council of Captains, the great Thurnock, with his yellow bow, followed by Clitus, with his net and trident, and by Tab, w... |
10 |
| 11 | 614 |
Outside I was joined by Thurnock and Clitus, and many of my men. |
10 |
| 12 | 3 |
In my role as captain I was often about the city, accompanied by Thurnock, and Clitus, and a squad of my men. |
10 |
| 12 | 7 |
Now, from the height of one of the investing walls, some hundred yards from the high bleak wall of one of the holdings of Sevarius, said to be his palace, I, with Thurnock, Clitus, and others, by the light of Gor's three moons, observed the opening of a postern gate. |
10 |
| 12 | 19 |
I, followed by Clitus and Thurnock, and others, leaped over the wall and ran toward the edge of the canal. |
10 |
| 12 | 21 |
Thurnock stopped long enough to draw his great bow. |
10 |
| 12 | 26 |
Before they could reach the gate Thurnock's great bow had struck twice more. |
10 |
| 12 | 28 |
One of the bodies Thurnock had struck lay dark, sprawled on the tiles, some fifteen yards from the gate; the other lay, inert and twisted in the shadows, at the very portal itself. |
10 |
| 12 | 31 |
"Do not, Captain!" cried Thurnock. |
10 |
| 12 | 54 |
There, in the heat of a watch fire, I stripped away my clothes and took a cloak from Thurnock. |
10 |
| 12 | 60 |
Thurnock clapped me on the shoulders. |
10 |
| 12 | 61 |
"So, too, are we, my captain," said Thurnock. |
10 |
| 12 | 76 |
"Who are you?" asked Thurnock. |
10 |
| 12 | 80 |
"He should be beaten with a bow," said Thurnock. |
10 |
| 12 | 82 |
"Hah!" said Thurnock. |
10 |
| 12 | 105 |
I then dismissed the men who stood near me, except Thurnock and Clitus. |
10 |
| 12 | 111 |
"Who is he?" asked Thurnock, looking after the boy, wrapped in the warrior's cloak, who was being carried away into the darkness. |
10 |
| 13 | 452 |
"Captain!" cried Thurnock. |
10 |
| 13 | 482 |
I turned to Thurnock and Tab. |
10 |
| 13 | 487 |
"The Bosk," laughed Thurnock, "has been angered". |
10 |
| 13 | 489 |
"Then let Cos and Tyros beware!" roared Thurnock. |
10 |
| 13 | 495 |
"True!" said Thurnock. |
10 |
| 14 | 117 |
Thurnock, near me, the tooth missing on his upper right side, grinned. |
10 |
| 14 | 318 |
"Thurnock," I said, "let the flags of division and acquisition be raised". |
10 |
| 14 | 349 |
"Yes, Captain," said Thurnock. |
10 |
| 14 | 469 |
"Thurnock," said I, "signal seventeen of my twenty ships to present themselves to our approaching friends. |
10 |
| 14 | 473 |
"Yes, Captain," roared Thurnock, turning and crossing on the plank to the deck of the Dorna, then taking his way to the shielded flag racks at the foot of her stem castle. |
10 |
| 14 | 487 |
"Take the admiral away," I said to Thurnock. |
10 |
| 15 | 173 |
"Your men," said he, "Thurnock, Clitus, and others, have said that they will teach me, should you give your permission". |
10 |
| 15 | 199 |
I knew that Thurnock and Clitus, and others, had taken a liking to the boy. |
10 |
| 15 | 206 |
I knew him, and so, too, did Thurnock and Clitus. |
10 |
| 15 | 254 |
I looked down the table, to where Thurnock, with his slave Thura, and Clitus, with his slave, Ula, were drinking and laughing. |
10 |
| 15 | 255 |
Thurnock and Clitus were good men, but they were fools. |
10 |
| 16 | 135 |
It was Thurnock. |
10 |
| 16 | 137 |
Thurnock burst in. |
10 |
| 16 | 144 |
"Flee!" "You may go," said I, "Thurnock". |
10 |
| 16 | 166 |
I looked from face to face, the great Thurnock, now calm, swift, strong Clitus, the shrewd oar-master, the others. |
10 |
| 16 | 175 |
"Thurnock," I said, "I gave orders, did I not, to have my ships outfitted". |
10 |
| 16 | 176 |
Thurnock grinned, the tooth missing on his upper right side. |
10 |
| 16 | 266 |
"And I!" cried Thurnock, in his great, booming voice. |
10 |
| 16 | 274 |
I cried to Thurnock. |
10 |
| 16 | 279 |
"Thurnock and Clitus," I said, "remain in the holding". |
10 |
| 18 | 304 |
Even Thurnock and Thura, and Clitus and Ula, whom I had expected to stay, had fled. |
10 |
| 18 | 613 |
And I saw, too, on the wall, with Ho-Hak, Thurnock, the Peasant, with his bow, and beside him, with net and trident, Clitus. |
10 |
| 18 | 624 |
On the wall Thurnock waved his great bow over his head. |
10 |
| 18 | 653 |
At the foot of the keep we met Thurnock, Clitus and Ho-Hak. |
10 |
| 18 | 657 |
Thurnock and Clitus, with Thura and Ula, had gone for aid to the rencers, traditionally enemies of those of Port Kar. |
10 |
| 18 | 664 |
Samos and I, and Fish, and Thurnock, Clitus and Ho-Hak, and others, went within the holding. |
10 |
| 18 | 728 |
"On a peasant holding," said Thurnock, defensively, as though he must justify having freed Thura, "one can get much more work from a free woman!" He pounded the table. |
10 |
| 18 | 734 |
"Where is the slave Sandra?" I asked Thurnock. |
10 |
| 18 | 735 |
"We found her hiding in your treasure room in the keep," said Thurnock. |
10 |
| 18 | 739 |
"We bolted the door from the outside," said Thurnock. |
10 |
| 18 | 807 |
"With your permission, Captain," said Thurnock, with a look at Thura, "it is late". |
10 |
| 18 | 808 |
I nodded, and lifted my hand, and Thurnock and Clitus, with Thura and Ula, left the table. |

There were other beauties in the house: slender, dark-haired Midice, the woman of a captain, Tab; large, blond-haired Thura, the woman of the great peasant, master of the bow, Thurnock; and short, dark-eyed Ula, woman of silent, strong Clitus, once a fisherman of the isle of Cos. |
10 |
| 17 | 332 |
"Wine!" called Thurnock. |
10 |
| 17 | 359 |
I felt Thurnock, the peasant, with his great belt, pinning my arms to my sides and I was thrown to the tiles of the great hall. |
10 |
| 17 | 373 |
Then he said, "Tab, Thurnock, Clitus, Henrius, Samos, I would be pleased if you would join me in my chambers". |
10 |
| 17 | 376 |
"Thurnock, unbind the slave," requested Bosk. |
10 |
| 18 | 62 |
Thurnock climbed the steps of the keep. |
10 |
| 18 | 65 |
"I am lonely, Thurnock," I said. |
10 |
| 18 | 66 |
"All men are, from time to time, lonely," said Thurnock. |
10 |
| 18 | 68 |
"Except when they are touched by love," said Thurnock, "all men are alone". |
10 |
| 18 | 72 |
"It is time she was chained in the kitchen," said Thurnock. |
10 |
| 18 | 74 |
"Would my captain care to join me," he asked, "in a cup of paga before we retire?" "Perhaps, Thurnock," I said. |
10 |
| 18 | 88 |
"No!" I said to Thurnock, putting my hand on the arrow, thrusting it to one side. |
10 |
| 18 | 98 |
"I could have felled him!" cried Thurnock. |
10 |
| 18 | 101 |
"Return to your rest!" "You have lost the girl!" cried Thurnock. |
10 |
| 18 | 103 |
Thurnock fetched it, and brought it to me. |
10 |
| 18 | 109 |
"Thurnock," I said, "let us now have that cup of paga, and then let us retire. |
10 |
| 18 | 111 |
"Yes, my captain," said Thurnock. |

Had they been able to see, they would have seen men returning to the Tesephone, with water kegs, and Thurnock and Rim returning, too, Thurnock carrying an object on his back, bulky but apparently not particularly heavy. |
10 |
| 6 | 139 |
"What then," asked I, of Thurnock, "do you suppose Verna, and her band, would do with her?" "I see," said Thurnock, grinning. |
10 |
| 2 | 5 |
Thurnock, of the Peasants, standing by me, handed me the glass. |
10 |
| 2 | 21 |
"Heave to," said I to Thurnock. |
10 |
| 2 | 87 |
"Bring us in," I said to Thurnock. |
10 |
| 2 | 94 |
Thurnock cried his orders. |
10 |
| 2 | 109 |
"Oars inboard!" called Thurnock. |
10 |
| 2 | 116 |
Thurnock had done well. |
10 |
| 2 | 124 |
I glanced back to see Thurnock lowering Cara over the side, with the wine and sack of cups, into the waiting arms of her master, Rim. |
10 |
| 2 | 126 |
Thurnock had tied the two bottles of wine about her neck, that it might be easier for her, and she held the sack of cups over her head, that they might not be washed with sea water. |
10 |
| 2 | 291 |
Thurnock took the wine and cups from her, and lifted her on board. |
10 |
| 2 | 310 |
I seized Thurnock's lowered hand, and scrambled on board. |
10 |
| 2 | 316 |
"Chain them to the deck," I told Thurnock. |
10 |
| 2 | 506 |
"To Lydius," I told Thurnock. |
10 |
| 2 | 518 |
"To Lydius!" called Thurnock to the helmsman on the helm deck. |
10 |
| 2 | 520 |
"Half beat," said I to Thurnock. |
10 |
| 2 | 573 |
Some men stood about, Rim and Thurnock among them. |
10 |
| 2 | 672 |
On the fore quarter I spoke to Rim and Thurnock. |
10 |
| 2 | 686 |
And Thurnock, and Rim, with snares, had gone into the forest. |
10 |
| 2 | 709 |
In the forests, this afternoon, Thurnock and Rim, who were familiar with such matters, the first as a peasant, and the second as an outlaw of the forests, had set snares. |
10 |
| 2 | 710 |
Their catch, returned to the Tesephone, in a cage, covered with canvas, carried on the back of Thurnock, had been six, rather large forest urts, about the size of tiny dogs. |
10 |
| 2 | 713 |
I, with Thurnock and Rim, went back to the kitchen area. |
10 |
| 3 | 3 |
Rim was with me, and Thurnock. |
10 |
| 3 | 25 |
I must seek Talena! Thurnock, at my command, had this morning sold the two panther girls, Tana and Ela, at the slave market. |
10 |
| 3 | 31 |
I, and Rim and Thurnock, wore the simple tunics of seamen. |
10 |
| 3 | 71 |
Rim, Thurnock and I continued to make our ways through the crowds at the waterfront. |
10 |
| 3 | 84 |
"What price did you obtain for the panther girls you sold?" I asked Thurnock. |
10 |
| 3 | 87 |
"Four pieces of gold," said Thurnock. |
10 |
| 3 | 116 |
"Good," said Thurnock. |
10 |
| 3 | 133 |
So, too, did Thurnock. |
10 |
| 3 | 151 |
"What is wrong?" asked Thurnock. |
10 |
| 3 | 153 |
I looked at Rim and Thurnock. |
10 |
| 3 | 161 |
"I trust," I said to Thurnock, "that your purse is intact". |
10 |
| 3 | 162 |
Thurnock looked down, swiftly. |
10 |
| 3 | 166 |
"I have the four gold pieces from the selling of the panther wenches," said Thurnock. |
10 |
| 3 | 174 |
"What is the matter?" asked Thurnock, his mouth filled with bosk. |
10 |
| 3 | 179 |
"What?" asked Thurnock. |
10 |
| 3 | 182 |
"What?" asked Thurnock. |
10 |
| 3 | 185 |
Rim and Thurnock laughed. |
10 |
| 3 | 186 |
"A thief," said Thurnock, swallowing a mouthful of bosk and reaching for the paga goblet. |
10 |
| 3 | 223 |
Thurnock threw down a silver tarsk on the table. |
10 |
| 3 | 251 |
With Rim and Thurnock, moving in the crowd, I craned for a look. |
10 |
| 3 | 281 |
I looked quickly at Rim and Thurnock. |
10 |
| 3 | 285 |
Thurnock grinned. |
10 |
| 3 | 354 |
I gestured that they should join us, Rim, Thurnock and myself. |
10 |
| 3 | 386 |
Rim and Thurnock looked at me, puzzled. |
10 |
| 3 | 408 |
"Thurnock," said I, "give him the silver tarsk". |
10 |
| 3 | 409 |
"Yes, Captain," said Thurnock. |
10 |
| 3 | 412 |
As Thurnock, by her arm, led the girl down the stairs of the wagon, the other slave girls, who had moved the wagon, struck at her, spitting and jeering. |
10 |
| 3 | 414 |
"Slave!" Thurnock led the girl before me. |
10 |
| 3 | 428 |
"Now," said I to Rim and Thurnock. |
10 |
| 3 | 434 |
"I," said Thurnock, "wonder about that dancer. |
10 |
| 3 | 438 |
"Let us go to the tavern," said Thurnock, licking his lips. |
10 |
| 3 | 441 |
I did not wish to deny Rim his lovely Tendite, nor Thurnock his Ahn with the luscious wench, chained, who had writhed before us on the sand. |
10 |
| 4 | 8 |
Thurnock then began to negotiate with the proprietor. |
10 |
| 4 | 9 |
I had had Thurnock give me some coins, which I had placed in my tunic. |
10 |
| 4 | 12 |
The proprietor slipped out from behind the counter, and Thurnock, impatiently, stamped about. |
10 |
| 4 | 14 |
In a moment, Thurnock had leaped to the ladder, following her. |
10 |
| 4 | 16 |
I expect she would have more than she bargained for with great Thurnock, of the Peasants. |
10 |
| 4 | 24 |
I was served a cup of paga, and I drank it slowly, waiting for Rim and Thurnock. |
10 |
| 4 | 271 |
It was the same name which had been that of one of the girls I had had Thurnock sell this morning, one of the two panther girls. |
10 |
| 4 | 389 |
Rim and Thurnock were waiting below. |
10 |
| 4 | 393 |
I noted, too, that, clad in yellow silk, belled on the left ankle, as another paga girl, the dancer, she whom Thurnock had sported with, too, carried a vessel of paga about. |
10 |
| 4 | 396 |
"Greetings, Captain," said Thurnock. |
10 |
| 4 | 401 |
"How much did she cost you?" I asked Thurnock. |
10 |
| 4 | 402 |
"Since, when not dancing, she serves with the common slaves," said Thurnock, "she came, like the others, for the price of a cup of paga". |
10 |
| 4 | 404 |
Thurnock had not been cheated. |
10 |
| 4 | 405 |
The girl looked angrily over her shoulder at Thurnock, and then poured paga. |
10 |
| 4 | 412 |
"Did masters enjoy themselves?" "Yes!" boomed Thurnock. |
10 |
| 5 | 6 |
Thurnock and Rim, with snares and nets, and by the light of tharlarion oil lamps, had captured them. |
10 |
| 5 | 165 |
At a cry of Thurnock such men, in an instant, would become a crew. |
10 |
| 5 | 227 |
It was in this market that Thurnock had disposed of them. |
10 |
| 5 | 343 |
Thurnock brought to me the wine and oil, and the salt. |
10 |
| 5 | 352 |
"Cast off!" cried Thurnock. |
10 |
| 5 | 356 |
"Out oars!" called Thurnock. |
10 |
| 5 | 362 |
"Port oars! Stroke!" called Thurnock. |
10 |
| 5 | 367 |
"Full oars!" called Thurnock. |
10 |
| 5 | 381 |
"Stroke!" called Thurnock, in his rhythm. |
10 |
| 6 | 88 |
Rim and I, and Thurnock, moored at Laura, in the stern castle, studied a rough map of the territory north and east of that rustic town. |

"Why not follow the tree blazings, and such?" asked Thurnock. |
10 |
| 6 | 95 |
I looked at Thurnock. |
10 |
| 6 | 100 |
"But Marlenus," said Thurnock, "he is a great Ubar. |
10 |
| 6 | 107 |
"Aiii," said Thurnock. |
10 |
| 6 | 116 |
"How shall we proceed?" asked Thurnock. |
10 |
| 6 | 126 |
"What girl, braceleted, could live in the forests?" asked Thurnock. |
10 |
| 6 | 130 |
"Yes!" said Thurnock. |
10 |
| 6 | 132 |
"You have in mind a skilled girl," said Thurnock, "one experienced in the ways of the forests". |
10 |
| 6 | 134 |
"But," said Thurnock, troubled, "have you considered that they, the panther women of Verna's band, might keep the girl we have released?" "I have considered that," I said. |
10 |
| 6 | 135 |
Thurnock looked at me, puzzled. |
10 |
| 6 | 142 |
Thurnock grinned. |
10 |
| 6 | 145 |
Thurnock nodded, and Rim laughed. |
10 |
| 6 | 157 |
"Marlenus? Fall to Verna?" asked Thurnock. |
10 |
| 6 | 160 |
I looked at Thurnock. |
10 |
| 6 | 163 |
So, why might she not, provided the sale is secret, sell Talena to me, regardless of the outcome of her pursuit of Marlenus?" "Perhaps she would fear you would simply, for gold, return Talena to Marlenus," said Thurnock. |
10 |
| 6 | 185 |
I went to the window, Thurnock pressed beside me. |
10 |
| 6 | 199 |
"It is not impossible," said Thurnock, "they are concerned with common trade, panther hides and sleen fur, and such". |
10 |
| 6 | 209 |
"Who knows," he asked, "what may happen in the forests?" "What shall we do, Captain?" asked Thurnock. |
10 |
| 6 | 226 |
Rim and Thurnock were with me, and five men. |
10 |
| 6 | 261 |
It had taken the better part of the morning, but Rim and I, and Thurnock, had found the blazed tree, blazed with a spear point, several feet high on the trunk. |
10 |
| 6 | 348 |
"How goes the work?" I asked Thurnock. |
10 |
| 6 | 355 |
"Another two stakes, and we are done," said Thurnock. |
10 |
| 6 | 372 |
She turned quickly, wrists braceleted, and slipped between two stakes, where Thurnock had not yet closed the defenses of the camp. |
10 |
| 6 | 376 |
"What shall we do now, Captain," asked Thurnock. |
10 |
| 6 | 397 |
"Do so," said I to Thurnock. |
10 |
| 6 | 398 |
Reluctantly Thurnock heaped more wood on the fire, until the interior of the perimeter was well illuminated in the darkness. |
10 |
| 6 | 401 |
"Keep it high," said I to Thurnock. |
10 |
| 6 | 420 |
I gestured to Thurnock. |
10 |
| 6 | 567 |
"Thurnock," said I, "replace the stakes". |
10 |
| 6 | 680 |
"It is Thurnock's". |
10 |
| 6 | 681 |
Thurnock, who had not checked his pouch, knowing it had not been taken from him, snorted in derision, a great peasant snort, like a bosk. |
10 |
| 6 | 682 |
"It is not mine," said Thurnock. |
10 |
| 6 | 684 |
"Yes," said Thurnock. |
10 |
| 6 | 688 |
I tossed Thurnock the coin. |
10 |
| 6 | 759 |
"I cannot wait," said Thurnock, "until we can again enter the forests!" I looked at him. |
10 |
| 6 | 760 |
"Thurnock," I said, "I need a man here, an officer I can trust, one to maintain the camp, one to command shrewdly in my absence". |
10 |
| 6 | 761 |
"No!" cried Thurnock. |
10 |
| 6 | 764 |
"No!" boomed Thurnock. |
10 |
| 6 | 766 |
Thurnock looked down. |
10 |
| 6 | 812 |
"She should be a general," grumbled Thurnock. |
10 |
| 6 | 876 |
"Thurnock," said I, "give her wine". |
10 |
| 6 | 878 |
"Very well," grinned Thurnock. |
10 |
| 6 | 881 |
She did so, and Thurnock, with a length of binding fiber, looped twice about her throat, and then four times about her wrists, fastened her wrists behind the back of her neck. |
10 |
| 6 | 904 |
I talked long with Thurnock, discussing the plans for the enterprise in the forest, and my wishes for appointments and regulations at the camp. |
10 |
| 6 | 1096 |
* * * * I heard Thurnock and some of the others, begin to stir about. |
10 |
| 6 | 1135 |
"But what then," she asked, "am I to do today?" "Thurnock!" I called. |
10 |
| 6 | 1138 |
Thurnock gave a great laugh, and Sheera thrust her head against my side. |
10 |
| 7 | 19 |
Thurnock I left behind, at the camp, in command. |
10 |
| 12 | 171 |
I was anxious to see again Thurnock, and Rim, who had returned to the Tesephone with Grenna, the girl I had captured in the forest, who had stood high in Hura's band. |
10 |
| 13 | 243 |
Thurnock, as a common seaman, was doubtless chained in the hold of the Tesephone. |
10 |
| 13 | 251 |
The others, including Thurnock, had been incarcerated in the hold of the Tesephone. |
10 |
| 20 | 311 |
"Greetings, Captain," said Thurnock. |
10 |
| 21 | 2 |
"Step away from your steel," ordered Thurnock, gesturing that they should stand to one side. |
10 |
| 21 | 61 |
Thurnock took him and thrust him, stumbling, and weeping, to stand by his men. |
10 |
| 21 | 108 |
"Similarly," said Thurnock, "took she the key from the mate of the Rhoda and, when the ships were tied together, and the men of the Rhoda and Tesephone were drunk with her body and the vessels of paga she poured them, she brought it to us. |
10 |
| 21 | 110 |
"Well done," said I, "Thurnock". |
10 |
| 21 | 111 |
"We put them in the hold of the Rhoda," grinned Thurnock. |
10 |
| 21 | 126 |
I handed the key to Thurnock. |
10 |
| 21 | 128 |
Thurnock hastened to unlock the manacles and heavy throat collar which bound the great Ubar. |
10 |
| 21 | 131 |
I took the key from Thurnock and, with it, unlocked the steel which confined Rim and Arn. |
10 |
| 21 | 140 |
"After them!" cried Thurnock. |
10 |
| 21 | 184 |
"There are two others, who are missing," I said to Thurnock. |
10 |
| 21 | 207 |
"Captain?" said Thurnock. |
10 |
| 21 | 208 |
"Take me to the Tesephone, Thurnock," I said. |
10 |
| 21 | 216 |
Thurnock looked at me. |
10 |
| 21 | 219 |
Thurnock helped me to the longboat. |
10 |
| 21 | 224 |
"Lie in the boat, my captain," whispered Thurnock. |
10 |
| 21 | 237 |
"Come, Captain," said Thurnock. |
10 |
| 21 | 238 |
With Thurnock and eight of my men I thrust the longboat back in the water and then, wading, swung it about. |
10 |
| 21 | 239 |
Thurnock climbed into the boat, and, leaning toward me, helped me to follow him. |
10 |
| 21 | 241 |
"Lie in the boat, Captain," said Thurnock. |
10 |
| 21 | 244 |
"Stroke," called Thurnock. |
10 |
| 21 | 250 |
"Captain?" asked Thurnock. |
10 |
| 21 | 275 |
"Captain?" asked Thurnock. |
10 |
| 22 | 41 |
"You are dead!" "Thurnock!" cried Sheera. |
10 |
| 22 | 45 |
"On! On!" "Please, Captain," said Thurnock. |
10 |
| 22 | 58 |
"Flee, Stranger, flee!" "They are coming!" "Give him paga," said Thurnock. |
10 |
| 22 | 110 |
"Rest, Captain," said Thurnock. |
10 |
| 22 | 121 |
"Rest, Captain," whispered Thurnock. |
10 |
| 22 | 229 |
"Let it be done as Verna has said," said I to Thurnock. |
10 |
| 22 | 373 |
"Remove her collar," I told Thurnock. |
10 |
| 22 | 453 |
"Remove her collar," I told Thurnock. |
10 |
| 22 | 601 |
"Thurnock," I said, "gather these logs, those from the stockade, and with them build a beacon". |
10 |
| 22 | 636 |
I felt her kiss my hand, and then she went to Thurnock, that he might remove her collar, that she, like Verna, might disappear into the forest. |
10 |
| 22 | 778 |
"We have set the logs of the palisade in the form of a great beacon," said Thurnock. |
10 |
| 22 | 797 |
"This woman," said I to Thurnock, indicating Rissia, "remained behind in the camp of Sarus and Hura, when many of her fellow panther women were drugged". |
10 |
| 22 | 798 |
Thurnock nodded. |
10 |
| 22 | 801 |
"I see, Captain," said Thurnock. |
10 |
| 22 | 803 |
Thurnock smiled. |
10 |
| 22 | 805 |
"Her act," I asked, "does it not seem brave?" "It does indeed, my captain," said Thurnock. |
10 |
| 22 | 807 |
Grinning, Thurnock bent to the shackles which graced Rissia's fair limbs, removing them one by one. |
10 |
| 22 | 907 |
I gestured to Thurnock and he gave me the pouch. |
10 |
| 22 | 914 |
"Free them," I told Thurnock. |
10 |
| 22 | 946 |
I recalled Arn, and Rim and Thurnock, and Hura and Mira, and Verna and Grenna and Sheera. |
10 |
| 22 | 964 |
"A good wind, Captain," said Thurnock. |
10 |
| 22 | 965 |
"Yes, Thurnock," I said. |
10 |
| 22 | 968 |
I heard Thurnock's steps going down to the deck from the stern castle. |
10 |
| 22 | 997 |
"Thurnock!" I cried. |
10 |
| 22 | 998 |
"I am cold! Bring crewmen! Carry me to my cabin!" "Yes, Captain," called Thurnock. |
10 |
| 22 | 1002 |
"Thurnock!" I cried. |
10 |
| 22 | 1010 |
"Yes, Captain," said Thurnock. |
10 |
| 22 | 1012 |
"That it is," said Thurnock. |

We have Eluded Pursuit; Two Bottles of Wine; Much Remains Unexplained; The Cove of Harpalos is Sighted "Would we had had our ram and shearing blades mounted," said Thurnock. |

"I do not care to flee from enemies, as though we were frightened vulos," said Thurnock. |
10 |

"Before the circle could draw tight about the decoy vessel," said Thurnock. |
10 |
| 5 | 18 |
"Would that not have been suspicious in itself," I asked, "three women, to be pitied, so distracting, and not one man?" "Why would a pirate not have seized them for slaves?" asked Thurnock. |
10 |
| 5 | 28 |
"To conceal the presence of some foreign ingredient," said Thurnock. |
10 |
| 5 | 31 |
"Poison," said Thurnock. |
10 |
| 5 | 34 |
"—we would all have perished," said Thurnock. |
10 |
| 5 | 37 |
"The she-sleen," said Thurnock. |
10 |
| 5 | 39 |
"But free minions, responsible minions," said Thurnock. |
10 |
| 5 | 46 |
"It is a dangerous, treacherous beverage," said Thurnock. |
10 |
| 5 | 49 |
"Get rid of them," said Thurnock. |
10 |
| 5 | 52 |
"How so?" asked Thurnock. |
10 |
| 5 | 55 |
"It is an ost, the most venomous serpent on Gor, the deadly ost," said Thurnock. |
10 |
| 5 | 58 |
"I do not understand," said Thurnock. |
10 |

"The six ships were undoubtedly the fleet of the false Bosk," said Thurnock. |
10 |
| 5 | 89 |
"Six such ships must have a base, a port," said Thurnock. |
10 |
| 5 | 94 |
"Such things can occur," said Thurnock. |
10 |
| 5 | 95 |
"But more interestingly," I said, "that one should encounter a towed bait ship, so designed, so equipped, on one's course?" "Likelihood increases," said Thurnock. |
10 |
| 5 | 102 |
"One could then lay such a trap profitably," said Thurnock. |
10 |
| 5 | 106 |
"But the cots, the homes of the flighted vulos, are on land," said Thurnock. |
10 |
| 5 | 116 |
"It could still all be a coincidence," said Thurnock. |
10 |
| 6 | 13 |
"Let them cast him into the street," suggested Thurnock. |
10 |
| 6 | 19 |
"His name is Sakim," said Thurnock. |
10 |
| 6 | 32 |
"You are patient and merciful, Captain," said Thurnock. |
10 |
| 6 | 37 |
"The czehar player has not yet entered from the serving corridor," said Thurnock. |
10 |
| 6 | 42 |
This seemed agreeable to Clitus and Thurnock as they drained their goblets. |
10 |
| 6 | 43 |
"This is the fourth tavern in Sybaris we have visited," said Thurnock, "and we have as yet learned nothing. |
10 |
| 6 | 46 |
"The czehar player has appeared," said Thurnock. |
10 |
| 6 | 140 |
"Perhaps she is lying," said Thurnock. |
10 |
| 6 | 195 |
"Aktis is diligently employed, is he not?" I asked Thurnock. |
10 |
| 6 | 196 |
"Yes," said Thurnock. |
10 |
| 6 | 198 |
"I fear not," said Thurnock. |
10 |
| 6 | 207 |
"Beat her," said Thurnock. |
10 |
| 6 | 215 |
"Nice," said Thurnock. |
10 |
| 6 | 219 |
"Look," said Thurnock, "Aktis enters the tavern". |
10 |
| 6 | 224 |
"Excellent," said Thurnock. |
10 |
| 6 | 228 |
"I think that dancer is new," said Thurnock. |
10 |
| 6 | 233 |
"The dancer is now making her way amongst the tables," said Thurnock, approvingly. |
10 |
| 6 | 244 |
"She approaches," said Thurnock, not in the least displeased. |
10 |
| 6 | 323 |
"Much in Sybaris is interesting," said Thurnock. |
10 |
| 6 | 328 |
"Fanciful, indeed," said Thurnock. |
10 |
| 6 | 335 |
"Tomorrow, Captain," said Thurnock, "you will be busy?" "Yes," I said. |
10 |
| 6 | 341 |
"Who?" asked Thurnock. |
10 |
| 6 | 350 |
Thurnock left the tavern, and Clitus and Aktis, the latter supplied with a well-earned copper tarsk, left the table to inspect the goods in the vicinity of the paga vat. |
10 |
| 8 | 72 |
I could see Thurnock, looking up, standing on the beach below. |
10 |
| 8 | 114 |
I must remember to tell Thurnock my joke. |

A Conversation Takes Place, Amongst Three Friends "The raiders," said Thurnock, "have been quiescent". |
10 |
| 9 | 7 |
"An endeavor in which we have not been muchly successful," said Thurnock. |
10 |
| 9 | 22 |
"The nights, too, are busy," said Thurnock. |
10 |
| 9 | 24 |
"There are hundreds of villages on the Farther Islands," said Thurnock. |
10 |
| 9 | 26 |
"It is hopeless," said Thurnock. |
10 |
| 9 | 32 |
"How many such villages are there?" asked Thurnock. |
10 |
| 9 | 37 |
"It is hopeless," said Thurnock. |
10 |
| 9 | 43 |
"So," said Thurnock, "if we put aside Thera, how many plausible villages are left, on Chios and Daphna?" "Something like a hundred and twenty," I said. |
10 |
| 9 | 44 |
"It is obviously hopeless," said Thurnock. |
10 |
| 9 | 50 |
"That narrows things down muchly," said Thurnock, eyes blazing. |
10 |
| 9 | 53 |
"It is more hopeless than ever," groaned Thurnock. |
10 |
| 9 | 55 |
"Yet," said Thurnock, "someone here in Sybaris knows where they intend to strike next". |
10 |
| 9 | 57 |
"If I could find one, I could choke it out of him," said Thurnock. |
10 |
| 9 | 60 |
"The matter is hopeless," said Thurnock. |
10 |
| 9 | 74 |
"You do not think the matter is hopeless?" asked Thurnock. |
10 |
| 9 | 76 |
"It is hopeless," said Thurnock. |
10 |
| 9 | 78 |
"How else?" "I do not understand," said Thurnock. |

I Obtain News of the Raiders "This is a lonely area," said Thurnock, looking about, down the long, gently curved beach. |
10 |
| 12 | 19 |
Thurnock gave him water from a bota, slung over his shoulder. |
10 |
| 12 | 23 |
"Shall we march?" asked Thurnock. |
10 |
| 12 | 31 |
"What do we do now, Captain?" asked Thurnock. |
10 |
| 13 | 6 |
I assumed it had been fired by Thurnock, whose aim could seldom be faulted. |
10 |
| 13 | 170 |
"Aktis left a message for the raiders at their march's end," said Thurnock. |
10 |
| 13 | 174 |
"He cannot read," said Thurnock. |
10 |
| 13 | 176 |
"I, too, am of the Peasants," said Thurnock. |
10 |
| 14 | 3 |
Clitus, Thurnock, and I went to the port rail. |
10 |
| 14 | 11 |
"I did not note that island on our voyage to Daphna," said Thurnock. |
10 |
| 14 | 14 |
"I could not tell the difference," said Thurnock. |
10 |
| 14 | 17 |
"Beware, Fisherman," growled Thurnock. |
10 |
| 14 | 22 |
"I see no women or children on this one," said Thurnock. |
10 |
| 14 | 24 |
"Look," said Thurnock, "there is a spume of gas, or water". |
10 |
| 14 | 34 |
"At The Village of Flowing Gold," said Thurnock, "the raiders found neither gold nor water". |
10 |
| 14 | 40 |
"Some raiders will construct rafts from the charred timbers of the burned ships, rig sails, and attempt to leave the beach," said Thurnock. |
10 |
| 14 | 42 |
"Some others, mad with thirst, will wander crazily into the hills, hoping to find streams or wells," said Thurnock. |
10 |
| 14 | 48 |
"Let us return to Port Kar," said Thurnock. |
10 |
| 14 | 50 |
"Two arrows," said Thurnock, "and they are the feasting of jards". |
10 |
| 14 | 53 |
"What is wrong?" asked Thurnock. |
10 |
| 14 | 55 |
"What?" asked Thurnock. |
10 |
| 14 | 61 |
"How so?" asked Thurnock. |
10 |
| 15 | 28 |
"Thurnock and Aktis petition to be sent to Sybaris," I said. |

The Isle of Seleukos; Cuy; I Depart from the Isle of Seleukos, More Informed than when I Landed "There!" cried Thurnock, pointing. |
10 |

"At last we have found it," said Thurnock. |
10 |
| 16 | 6 |
"I do not understand your interest here," said Thurnock. |
