Book 6. (100 results) Raiders of Gor

Chapter # Sentence # Quote Confidence
9 322 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'.
Details
10
8 387 "I am Thurnock!" he cried.
Details
10
8 389 "Thurnock," he said, "draws the great bow well".
Details
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.
Details
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.
Details
10
8 514 I looked at Thurnock and Clitus.
Details
10
8 516 Thurnock crossed his great arms on his chest, and nodded his head.
Details
10
8 520 "I," said Thurnock, in a booming voice, "would follow you even to the Cities of Dust".
Details
10
8 522 Thurnock was blue-eyed, Clitus gray-eyed.
Details
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.
Details
10
8 540 "The raft is ready," said Thurnock, his body gleaming sweat, wiping a great forearm across his face.
Details
10
8 543 "There is much rence paper," said Thurnock.
Details
10
8 546 "What of slaves?" asked Thurnock.
Details
10
8 553 Thurnock and Clitus regarded me.
Details
10
8 555 A grin broke across the face of Thurnock.
Details
10
8 638 I surveyed the two girls, the blond one and the shorter one, and looked to Thurnock and Clitus.
Details
10
8 640 "Beauties!" said Thurnock.
Details
10
8 644 I looked at Thurnock and Clitus.
Details
10
8 646 "Ha!" cried Thurnock.
Details
10
8 649 In an instant, with peasant knots, Thurnock had lashed them together.
Details
10
8 664 "It is," boomed Thurnock.
Details
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...
Details
10
8 676 "What is your name?" boomed Thurnock to the large girl, who flinched.
Details
10
8 679 "I am Thurnock!" The girl did not seem much pleased by this coincidence.
Details
10
8 680 "I am of the peasants," Thurnock told her.
Details
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.
Details
10
8 685 "No," boomed Thurnock.
Details
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.
Details
10
8 829 Thurnock gave a great laugh.
Details
10
8 843 "I would say," laughed Thurnock, grinning, "kettle and mat!" He had one tooth missing on the upper right.
Details
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...
Details
10
9 276 "I bring paga!" Thurnock took down the beams from the door, and swung it open.
Details
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.
Details
10
9 295 I saw that Thurnock had had her put a flower in her hair, a talender.
Details
10
9 310 "Thurnock," cried I, "secure the slaves".
Details
10
9 316 Already Thurnock was putting them in coffle, binding the right wrist of each.
Details
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.
Details
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...
Details
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.
Details
10
9 370 Thurnock then seized Thura, pressing his lips upon hers.
Details
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.
Details
10
9 389 The musicians began to play, and to the clappings and cries of Thurnock and Clitus, Thura and Ula danced before them.
Details
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.
Details
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.
Details
10
10 112 Thurnock and Clitus seemed pleased with Thura and Ula, who now wore expensive silks and jeweled collars.
Details
10
10 119 Generally in the evening I ate with Thurnock and Clitus, with their slaves, and Midice.
Details
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...
Details
10
11 614 Outside I was joined by Thurnock and Clitus, and many of my men.
Details
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.
Details
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.
Details
10
12 19 I, followed by Clitus and Thurnock, and others, leaped over the wall and ran toward the edge of the canal.
Details
10
12 21 Thurnock stopped long enough to draw his great bow.
Details
10
12 26 Before they could reach the gate Thurnock's great bow had struck twice more.
Details
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.
Details
10
12 31 "Do not, Captain!" cried Thurnock.
Details
10
12 54 There, in the heat of a watch fire, I stripped away my clothes and took a cloak from Thurnock.
Details
10
12 60 Thurnock clapped me on the shoulders.
Details
10
12 61 "So, too, are we, my captain," said Thurnock.
Details
10
12 76 "Who are you?" asked Thurnock.
Details
10
12 80 "He should be beaten with a bow," said Thurnock.
Details
10
12 82 "Hah!" said Thurnock.
Details
10
12 105 I then dismissed the men who stood near me, except Thurnock and Clitus.
Details
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.
Details
10
13 452 "Captain!" cried Thurnock.
Details
10
13 482 I turned to Thurnock and Tab.
Details
10
13 487 "The Bosk," laughed Thurnock, "has been angered".
Details
10
13 489 "Then let Cos and Tyros beware!" roared Thurnock.
Details
10
13 495 "True!" said Thurnock.
Details
10
14 117 Thurnock, near me, the tooth missing on his upper right side, grinned.
Details
10
14 318 "Thurnock," I said, "let the flags of division and acquisition be raised".
Details
10
14 349 "Yes, Captain," said Thurnock.
Details
10
14 469 "Thurnock," said I, "signal seventeen of my twenty ships to present themselves to our approaching friends.
Details
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.
Details
10
14 487 "Take the admiral away," I said to Thurnock.
Details
10
15 173 "Your men," said he, "Thurnock, Clitus, and others, have said that they will teach me, should you give your permission".
Details
10
15 199 I knew that Thurnock and Clitus, and others, had taken a liking to the boy.
Details
10
15 206 I knew him, and so, too, did Thurnock and Clitus.
Details
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.
Details
10
15 255 Thurnock and Clitus were good men, but they were fools.
Details
10
16 135 It was Thurnock.
Details
10
16 137 Thurnock burst in.
Details
10
16 144 "Flee!" "You may go," said I, "Thurnock".
Details
10
16 166 I looked from face to face, the great Thurnock, now calm, swift, strong Clitus, the shrewd oar-master, the others.
Details
10
16 175 "Thurnock," I said, "I gave orders, did I not, to have my ships outfitted".
Details
10
16 176 Thurnock grinned, the tooth missing on his upper right side.
Details
10
16 266 "And I!" cried Thurnock, in his great, booming voice.
Details
10
16 274 I cried to Thurnock.
Details
10
16 279 "Thurnock and Clitus," I said, "remain in the holding".
Details
10
18 304 Even Thurnock and Thura, and Clitus and Ula, whom I had expected to stay, had fled.
Details
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.
Details
10
18 624 On the wall Thurnock waved his great bow over his head.
Details
10
18 653 At the foot of the keep we met Thurnock, Clitus and Ho-Hak.
Details
10
18 657 Thurnock and Clitus, with Thura and Ula, had gone for aid to the rencers, traditionally enemies of those of Port Kar.
Details
10
18 664 Samos and I, and Fish, and Thurnock, Clitus and Ho-Hak, and others, went within the holding.
Details
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.
Details
10
18 734 "Where is the slave Sandra?" I asked Thurnock.
Details
10
18 735 "We found her hiding in your treasure room in the keep," said Thurnock.
Details
10
18 739 "We bolted the door from the outside," said Thurnock.
Details
10
18 807 "With your permission, Captain," said Thurnock, with a look at Thura, "it is late".
Details
10
18 808 I nodded, and lifted my hand, and Thurnock and Clitus, with Thura and Ula, left the table.

Book 7. (17 results) Captive of Gor

Chapter # Sentence # Quote Confidence
17 292 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.
Details
10
17 332 "Wine!" called Thurnock.
Details
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.
Details
10
17 373 Then he said, "Tab, Thurnock, Clitus, Henrius, Samos, I would be pleased if you would join me in my chambers".
Details
10
17 376 "Thurnock, unbind the slave," requested Bosk.
Details
10
18 62 Thurnock climbed the steps of the keep.
Details
10
18 65 "I am lonely, Thurnock," I said.
Details
10
18 66 "All men are, from time to time, lonely," said Thurnock.
Details
10
18 68 "Except when they are touched by love," said Thurnock, "all men are alone".
Details
10
18 72 "It is time she was chained in the kitchen," said Thurnock.
Details
10
18 74 "Would my captain care to join me," he asked, "in a cup of paga before we retire?" "Perhaps, Thurnock," I said.
Details
10
18 88 "No!" I said to Thurnock, putting my hand on the arrow, thrusting it to one side.
Details
10
18 98 "I could have felled him!" cried Thurnock.
Details
10
18 101 "Return to your rest!" "You have lost the girl!" cried Thurnock.
Details
10
18 103 Thurnock fetched it, and brought it to me.
Details
10
18 109 "Thurnock," I said, "let us now have that cup of paga, and then let us retire.
Details
10
18 111 "Yes, my captain," said Thurnock.

Book 8. (181 results) Hunters of Gor

Chapter # Sentence # Quote Confidence
2 689 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.
Details
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.
Details
10
2 5 Thurnock, of the Peasants, standing by me, handed me the glass.
Details
10
2 21 "Heave to," said I to Thurnock.
Details
10
2 87 "Bring us in," I said to Thurnock.
Details
10
2 94 Thurnock cried his orders.
Details
10
2 109 "Oars inboard!" called Thurnock.
Details
10
2 116 Thurnock had done well.
Details
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.
Details
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.
Details
10
2 291 Thurnock took the wine and cups from her, and lifted her on board.
Details
10
2 310 I seized Thurnock's lowered hand, and scrambled on board.
Details
10
2 316 "Chain them to the deck," I told Thurnock.
Details
10
2 506 "To Lydius," I told Thurnock.
Details
10
2 518 "To Lydius!" called Thurnock to the helmsman on the helm deck.
Details
10
2 520 "Half beat," said I to Thurnock.
Details
10
2 573 Some men stood about, Rim and Thurnock among them.
Details
10
2 672 On the fore quarter I spoke to Rim and Thurnock.
Details
10
2 686 And Thurnock, and Rim, with snares, had gone into the forest.
Details
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.
Details
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.
Details
10
2 713 I, with Thurnock and Rim, went back to the kitchen area.
Details
10
3 3 Rim was with me, and Thurnock.
Details
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.
Details
10
3 31 I, and Rim and Thurnock, wore the simple tunics of seamen.
Details
10
3 71 Rim, Thurnock and I continued to make our ways through the crowds at the waterfront.
Details
10
3 84 "What price did you obtain for the panther girls you sold?" I asked Thurnock.
Details
10
3 87 "Four pieces of gold," said Thurnock.
Details
10
3 116 "Good," said Thurnock.
Details
10
3 133 So, too, did Thurnock.
Details
10
3 151 "What is wrong?" asked Thurnock.
Details
10
3 153 I looked at Rim and Thurnock.
Details
10
3 161 "I trust," I said to Thurnock, "that your purse is intact".
Details
10
3 162 Thurnock looked down, swiftly.
Details
10
3 166 "I have the four gold pieces from the selling of the panther wenches," said Thurnock.
Details
10
3 174 "What is the matter?" asked Thurnock, his mouth filled with bosk.
Details
10
3 179 "What?" asked Thurnock.
Details
10
3 182 "What?" asked Thurnock.
Details
10
3 185 Rim and Thurnock laughed.
Details
10
3 186 "A thief," said Thurnock, swallowing a mouthful of bosk and reaching for the paga goblet.
Details
10
3 223 Thurnock threw down a silver tarsk on the table.
Details
10
3 251 With Rim and Thurnock, moving in the crowd, I craned for a look.
Details
10
3 281 I looked quickly at Rim and Thurnock.
Details
10
3 285 Thurnock grinned.
Details
10
3 354 I gestured that they should join us, Rim, Thurnock and myself.
Details
10
3 386 Rim and Thurnock looked at me, puzzled.
Details
10
3 408 "Thurnock," said I, "give him the silver tarsk".
Details
10
3 409 "Yes, Captain," said Thurnock.
Details
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.
Details
10
3 414 "Slave!" Thurnock led the girl before me.
Details
10
3 428 "Now," said I to Rim and Thurnock.
Details
10
3 434 "I," said Thurnock, "wonder about that dancer.
Details
10
3 438 "Let us go to the tavern," said Thurnock, licking his lips.
Details
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.
Details
10
4 8 Thurnock then began to negotiate with the proprietor.
Details
10
4 9 I had had Thurnock give me some coins, which I had placed in my tunic.
Details
10
4 12 The proprietor slipped out from behind the counter, and Thurnock, impatiently, stamped about.
Details
10
4 14 In a moment, Thurnock had leaped to the ladder, following her.
Details
10
4 16 I expect she would have more than she bargained for with great Thurnock, of the Peasants.
Details
10
4 24 I was served a cup of paga, and I drank it slowly, waiting for Rim and Thurnock.
Details
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.
Details
10
4 389 Rim and Thurnock were waiting below.
Details
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.
Details
10
4 396 "Greetings, Captain," said Thurnock.
Details
10
4 401 "How much did she cost you?" I asked Thurnock.
Details
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".
Details
10
4 404 Thurnock had not been cheated.
Details
10
4 405 The girl looked angrily over her shoulder at Thurnock, and then poured paga.
Details
10
4 412 "Did masters enjoy themselves?" "Yes!" boomed Thurnock.
Details
10
5 6 Thurnock and Rim, with snares and nets, and by the light of tharlarion oil lamps, had captured them.
Details
10
5 165 At a cry of Thurnock such men, in an instant, would become a crew.
Details
10
5 227 It was in this market that Thurnock had disposed of them.
Details
10
5 343 Thurnock brought to me the wine and oil, and the salt.
Details
10
5 352 "Cast off!" cried Thurnock.
Details
10
5 356 "Out oars!" called Thurnock.
Details
10
5 362 "Port oars! Stroke!" called Thurnock.
Details
10
5 367 "Full oars!" called Thurnock.
Details
10
5 381 "Stroke!" called Thurnock, in his rhythm.
Details
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.
Details
10
6 91 "Why not follow the tree blazings, and such?" asked Thurnock.
Details
10
6 95 I looked at Thurnock.
Details
10
6 100 "But Marlenus," said Thurnock, "he is a great Ubar.
Details
10
6 107 "Aiii," said Thurnock.
Details
10
6 116 "How shall we proceed?" asked Thurnock.
Details
10
6 126 "What girl, braceleted, could live in the forests?" asked Thurnock.
Details
10
6 130 "Yes!" said Thurnock.
Details
10
6 132 "You have in mind a skilled girl," said Thurnock, "one experienced in the ways of the forests".
Details
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.
Details
10
6 135 Thurnock looked at me, puzzled.
Details
10
6 142 Thurnock grinned.
Details
10
6 145 Thurnock nodded, and Rim laughed.
Details
10
6 157 "Marlenus? Fall to Verna?" asked Thurnock.
Details
10
6 160 I looked at Thurnock.
Details
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.
Details
10
6 185 I went to the window, Thurnock pressed beside me.
Details
10
6 199 "It is not impossible," said Thurnock, "they are concerned with common trade, panther hides and sleen fur, and such".
Details
10
6 209 "Who knows," he asked, "what may happen in the forests?" "What shall we do, Captain?" asked Thurnock.
Details
10
6 226 Rim and Thurnock were with me, and five men.
Details
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.
Details
10
6 348 "How goes the work?" I asked Thurnock.
Details
10
6 355 "Another two stakes, and we are done," said Thurnock.

6 372 She turned quickly, wrists braceleted, and slipped between two stakes, where Thurnock had not yet closed the defenses of the camp.
Details
10
6 376 "What shall we do now, Captain," asked Thurnock.
Details
10
6 397 "Do so," said I to Thurnock.
Details
10
6 398 Reluctantly Thurnock heaped more wood on the fire, until the interior of the perimeter was well illuminated in the darkness.
Details
10
6 401 "Keep it high," said I to Thurnock.
Details
10
6 420 I gestured to Thurnock.
Details
10
6 567 "Thurnock," said I, "replace the stakes".
Details
10
6 680 "It is Thurnock's".
Details
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.
Details
10
6 682 "It is not mine," said Thurnock.
Details
10
6 684 "Yes," said Thurnock.
Details
10
6 688 I tossed Thurnock the coin.
Details
10
6 759 "I cannot wait," said Thurnock, "until we can again enter the forests!" I looked at him.
Details
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".
Details
10
6 761 "No!" cried Thurnock.
Details
10
6 764 "No!" boomed Thurnock.
Details
10
6 766 Thurnock looked down.
Details
10
6 812 "She should be a general," grumbled Thurnock.
Details
10
6 876 "Thurnock," said I, "give her wine".
Details
10
6 878 "Very well," grinned Thurnock.
Details
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.
Details
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.
Details
10
6 1096 * * * * I heard Thurnock and some of the others, begin to stir about.
Details
10
6 1135 "But what then," she asked, "am I to do today?" "Thurnock!" I called.
Details
10
6 1138 Thurnock gave a great laugh, and Sheera thrust her head against my side.
Details
10
7 19 Thurnock I left behind, at the camp, in command.
Details
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.
Details
10
13 243 Thurnock, as a common seaman, was doubtless chained in the hold of the Tesephone.
Details
10
13 251 The others, including Thurnock, had been incarcerated in the hold of the Tesephone.
Details
10
20 311 "Greetings, Captain," said Thurnock.
Details
10
21 2 "Step away from your steel," ordered Thurnock, gesturing that they should stand to one side.
Details
10
21 61 Thurnock took him and thrust him, stumbling, and weeping, to stand by his men.
Details
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.
Details
10
21 110 "Well done," said I, "Thurnock".
Details
10
21 111 "We put them in the hold of the Rhoda," grinned Thurnock.
Details
10
21 126 I handed the key to Thurnock.
Details
10
21 128 Thurnock hastened to unlock the manacles and heavy throat collar which bound the great Ubar.
Details
10
21 131 I took the key from Thurnock and, with it, unlocked the steel which confined Rim and Arn.
Details
10
21 140 "After them!" cried Thurnock.
Details
10
21 184 "There are two others, who are missing," I said to Thurnock.
Details
10
21 207 "Captain?" said Thurnock.
Details
10
21 208 "Take me to the Tesephone, Thurnock," I said.
Details
10
21 216 Thurnock looked at me.
Details
10
21 219 Thurnock helped me to the longboat.
Details
10
21 224 "Lie in the boat, my captain," whispered Thurnock.
Details
10
21 237 "Come, Captain," said Thurnock.
Details
10
21 238 With Thurnock and eight of my men I thrust the longboat back in the water and then, wading, swung it about.
Details
10
21 239 Thurnock climbed into the boat, and, leaning toward me, helped me to follow him.
Details
10
21 241 "Lie in the boat, Captain," said Thurnock.
Details
10
21 244 "Stroke," called Thurnock.
Details
10
21 250 "Captain?" asked Thurnock.
Details
10
21 275 "Captain?" asked Thurnock.
Details
10
22 41 "You are dead!" "Thurnock!" cried Sheera.
Details
10
22 45 "On! On!" "Please, Captain," said Thurnock.
Details
10
22 58 "Flee, Stranger, flee!" "They are coming!" "Give him paga," said Thurnock.
Details
10
22 110 "Rest, Captain," said Thurnock.
Details
10
22 121 "Rest, Captain," whispered Thurnock.
Details
10
22 229 "Let it be done as Verna has said," said I to Thurnock.
Details
10
22 373 "Remove her collar," I told Thurnock.
Details
10
22 453 "Remove her collar," I told Thurnock.
Details
10
22 601 "Thurnock," I said, "gather these logs, those from the stockade, and with them build a beacon".
Details
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.
Details
10
22 778 "We have set the logs of the palisade in the form of a great beacon," said Thurnock.
Details
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".
Details
10
22 798 Thurnock nodded.
Details
10
22 801 "I see, Captain," said Thurnock.
Details
10
22 803 Thurnock smiled.
Details
10
22 805 "Her act," I asked, "does it not seem brave?" "It does indeed, my captain," said Thurnock.
Details
10
22 807 Grinning, Thurnock bent to the shackles which graced Rissia's fair limbs, removing them one by one.
Details
10
22 907 I gestured to Thurnock and he gave me the pouch.
Details
10
22 914 "Free them," I told Thurnock.
Details
10
22 946 I recalled Arn, and Rim and Thurnock, and Hura and Mira, and Verna and Grenna and Sheera.
Details
10
22 964 "A good wind, Captain," said Thurnock.
Details
10
22 965 "Yes, Thurnock," I said.
Details
10
22 968 I heard Thurnock's steps going down to the deck from the stern castle.
Details
10
22 997 "Thurnock!" I cried.
Details
10
22 998 "I am cold! Bring crewmen! Carry me to my cabin!" "Yes, Captain," called Thurnock.
Details
10
22 1002 "Thurnock!" I cried.
Details
10
22 1010 "Yes, Captain," said Thurnock.

Details
10
2 12 "Why, small one?" asked Thurnock.
Details
10
2 14 Aktis was not a small man, but Thurnock was unusually large, a boulder of a man, with arms like oars.
Details
