Walkway

Book 3. (20 results) Priest-Kings of Gor

Chapter # Sentence # Quote Confidence
18 105 I saw, surrounding the bluish dome, in a greater concentric dome of stone, walkway upon walkway of paneling and instrumentation.
Details
10
31 123 Then I saw him through the sides of the blue dome that covered the power source, far above, a golden figure on the narrow walkway at the crest of the dome.
Details
10
31 134 I left cover and rushed to the walkway and was soon climbing up the narrow path that crept around the surface of the globe that now barely contained the frenzied, bubbling fury, the turbulence of the hissing, erupting substance that leaped and smote against the smooth enclosing walls.
Details
10
31 135 I climbed the walkway rapidly and soon could see Sarm clearly at the very top of the dome, whence he had once displayed to me the majesty of the Priest-Kings' accomplishments, where he had once indicated to me the modifications of the ganglionic net by means of which his people had won to the enormo...
Details
10
31 136 He was not yet aware of my approach, perhaps not believing I would be fool enough to climb the exposed walkway in pursuit.
Details
10
31 137 Then suddenly he wheeled and saw me and seemed startled but then the silver tube flew up and I threw myself rolling back down the walkway, the steel stairs bubbling away following me.
Details
10
31 140 Twice more Sarm fired and twice more I scrambled about on the walkway trying to keep the two surfaces of the globe between myself and his weapon.
Details
10
31 147 To do more damage he would now have to descend the walkway and reach the paneling itself, perhaps that on the other side of the room, but to do this he would have to pass me, and I was determined that I should not, if possible, allow that to happen.
Details
10
31 148 Slowly I climbed the walkway, stepping with care past the ruined portions of the steel steps leading to the crest of the dome.
Details
10
31 163 The bladelike figure of the Priest-King seemed to waver on the walkway and the antennae seemed blown about as though by the wind.
Details
10
31 170 Sarm reached to the steel bar that formed the railing to his left on the walkway and with the incredible strength of Priest-Kings with one motion twisted and tore free a length of perhaps eighteen feet.
Details
10
31 172 The bar he wielded was a fearsome weapon and with it he could strike me from the walkway, hurling me perhaps two hundred feet to the opposite wall, before I could get within yards of him.
Details
10
31 175 I knew I could not retreat back down the walkway for Sarm was much faster than I and would be upon me perhaps even before I could turn.
Details
10
31 181 Drifts of rock powder hung in the air, fitted stone tumbled to the flooring far below, the walls trembled, the very globe and walkway fastened to it seemed to shift and shudder.
Details
10
31 196 Behind me, inching its way up the narrow walkway, clinging with its six small legs, slowly lifting its heavy domelike golden body a step at a time, came the Golden Beetle I had seen below.
Details
10
31 217 The very globe and walkway seemed to lift and tremble but neither of the creatures locked together above me seemed to take the least notice.
Details
10
31 230 He stood thusly on the walkway at the top of the vast blue dome beneath which burned and hissed the power source of Priest-Kings.
Details
10
31 231 One last time he looked about himself, his antennae surveying the grandeur of the Nest, and then tumbled from the walkway and fell to the surface of the globe and slid until he fell to the rubble below.
Details
10
31 234 With my foot I tumbled its heavy body from the walkway and watched it slide down the side of the globe and fall like Sarm to the rubble below.
Details
10
31 237 I turned and retraced my steps down the walkway.

3 6 Here and there small lamps, set in niches, high in stone walls, or lanterns, hung on iron projections, shed small pools of light on the sides of buildings and illuminated, too, in their secondary ambiance, the stones of the sloping walkway on which I trod, one of many leading down to the wharves.

10
18 297 I saw more than one woman, struck from the walkway, reaching out, seizing the walkway, pulled again, screaming, to its safety, even in the midst of the frenzy at its edge.
Details
10
18 318 Out of quarrel range on the walkway most of the slaves knelt, some with their heads in their hands, trembling, others with their heads pressed down to the walkway.

10
18 328 Then I, standing at the walkway, man by man, as was opportune, sent fellows back along the walkway, retreating to the piers.

19 1 The Walkway It was on the long walkway leading out to the piers that we fought.

19 6 Indeed, the walkway for a dozen yards, closer to the landing, was covered by these boats, until the camp commander sent his own crossbowmen out on the walkway, to keep them their distance.

10
19 225 The piece of broken walkway which had been to the right was now back, a few feet from the torn end of the walkway, floating in the inner harbor.
Details
10
19 249 There I leapt from the walkway out, over the water, to the piece of half-submerged wreckage, cut from the walkway.
Details
10
10 408 I was flung to my stomach on the walkway behind the parapet.
Details
10
10 412 In a moment, lying on my stomach, on the walkway behind the parapet, I was stripped and chained, my hands manacled behind me, a chain running from the manacles down to join another chain, one strung between the shackles on my ankles.
Details
10
14 209 Otherwise they can radically change their position, spinning half about, or even, literally, flinging themselves back off the walkway.
Details
10
16 31 As I went toward the gate's battlements a grapnel looped over the wall gracefully and fell behind the walkway.
Details
10
16 54 I pulled it loose then and, letting its tautness do the work, let it fly back over the walkway and the crenelation.
Details
10
16 77 I passed two catapults on the walkway.
Details
10
16 100 Two were cut down and a third climbed back over the wall and leapt away, plunging to its foot, preferring to risk the consequences of such a fall rather than face certain death on the walkway.
Details
10
16 341 Down on the lower walkway we looked back to the battlements over the gate.
Details
10
16 522 Were Cosians not to know their swords had been warmed and nicked in their romp? "Ho, fools!" I cried, striding down the walkway.
Details
10
17 40 At the termination of another bridge we had broken away an opening in the walkway, enlarging a gap about stairs.
Details
10
17 86 I saw one of Ar's Station run through, and slip to one knee, and then disappear back, over the interior edge of the walkway, probably to plunge to the rubble there, and then roll down to the court, behind the wall.
Details
10
17 103 I dispatched the few reserves I had to seal off that portion of the walkway.
Details
10
17 111 There were pockets of them, embattled, here and there along the walkway.
Details
10
17 265 "They cannot hold on the west walkway!" he cried.
Details
10
17 267 My plan, even if successful, would keep the walkway, nearer the command post, only for a few Ehn.
Details
10
17 284 Then, suddenly the defenders there, holding the west walkway, withdrew.
Details
10
17 287 Scarcely were the defenders drawn back than the great cauldron of oil, its oil now ignited, now aflame, into which the buckets on long handles had been dipped, was overturned with poles and flooded the walkway behind them.
Details
10
17 293 This retreat, though it surrendered the western walkway, decreased the amount of area to be held, and, with these new numbers, increased the defenders there.
Details
10
17 301 The east walkway could not be long held.
Details
10
17 329 "The flames on the west walkway are lessening," he said.
Details
10
17 380 At that moment the other young fellow, who had seemed so mature, who was serving as my messenger to the eastern walkway, gasping, ascended to the upper battlements.
Details
10
17 396 "We have withdrawn to just west of the west gate stairs," said the young fellow, reporting from the western walkway.
Details
10
17 397 "Take the slave," I said, "and put her on the central walkway, behind the upper battlements.
Details
10
17 405 They may be used, for example, for such purposes as anchoring war engines, to keep them, in their reaction, from backing off the walkway, restraining guard sleen, and securing prisoners.
Details
10
17 407 It will be delivered from the central walkway, behind the upper battlements".
Details
10
17 423 I watched them descending the steps to the central walkway.
Details
10
17 425 I turned about and the other young fellow, he who was my messenger to the eastern walkway, climbed to the upper battlements from the eastern stairwell.
Details
10
17 434 I looked to the western walkway and saw the other young fellow with the fellows there.
Details
10
17 435 He was behind their lines, facing the central walkway.
Details
10
17 437 I looked to the eastern walkway.
Details
10
17 439 He, too, was looking back, toward the central walkway.
Details
10
17 444 I then descended to the central walkway.
Details
10
17 445 There were bodies there, as elsewhere about the walkway, those of Cosians, those of defenders.
Details
10
17 462 I then went to the slave, kneeling on the walkway, facing the stone backing of the upper battlements, tethered there.
Details
10
17 473 I then drew her to her feet and, turning her a few times, unwrapping some of the rope, stood her near the courtyard edge of the walkway.
Details
10
17 485 The stairways, of course, were much narrower than the walkway, and could be held by fewer men in the retreat.
Details
10
17 499 I thrust the slave to her right and she tumbled off the walkway.
Details
10
17 503 For an instant it had been hard to get my hands on the rope, it was moving so, over the edge of the walkway, but, a moment or so after she had struck the hill of debris, I had it in my hands and began to descend it, rapidly, hand over hand.
Details
10
17 510 Mainly I wanted to see if there were any crossbowmen on the walkway.
Details
10
17 525 The fellows on the walkway had seen him.
Details
10
17 532 The other young fellow, he who had been my messenger to the eastern walkway, emerged into the courtyard.
Details
10
17 533 He looked up at the walkway.
Details
10
17 534 The Cosians were now leaving the central walkway, and hurrying to the stairwells, those to the east and west.
Details
10
17 730 "That is the gate to the landing, and thence to the walkway, leading to the piers," said one of the men.
Details
10
18 1 The Landing "Hail, Captain!" called the young fellow with the crossbow, near the gate leading out onto the landing, from which a walkway gave access, across a stretch of harbor water, some two hundred yards in width, to the piers.
Details
10
18 77 "Many others," said a fellow, "fear to tread the walkway".
Details
10
18 83 "There is even a greater reason to avoid the walkway," said another man, bitterly.
Details
10
18 90 "The walkway can be destroyed behind them.
Details
10
18 111 "The walkway has been interdicted," he said.
Details
10
18 163 I detailed men to assist, as they could, shielding them, women and children running toward the walkway.
Details
10
18 165 The nearer portions of the walkway seemed to be growing quarrels like grass.
Details
10
18 166 Many of the bowmen had apparently received orders to seal off the walkway, as they could, this penning the people below between the water and the wall, holding them there, like verr for the slaughter.
Details
10
18 174 The bearers, then, crouching down, behind four fellows holding shields between them and the wall, hurried toward the walkway.
Details
10
18 179 I then sent forth men from the shield wall singly, and in squads, to ferry the women and children, one at a time, or the women carrying children in their arms, beneath the cover of their shields, to the walkway.
Details
10
18 182 I saw the young crossbowman, under the cover of a shield, held by his friend, the other young fellow from the front wall, harvesting quarrels from the walkway.
Details
10
18 208 The shield wall was disrupted, the frightened women and children rushing through it, tearing at it, plunging toward the walkway behind us.
Details
10
18 211 "To the wall!" Behind us we heard the screams of women and children, crowding toward the walkway.
Details
10
18 212 We heard, too, the sounds and screams of those swept, as by a flood, from the landing, and from the sides of the walkway, striking into the water.
Details
10
18 237 They hit the walkway like hail.
Details
10
18 240 "Back to the wall!" I supposed that many of the bowmen on the wall, from the safety of the crenelation, were continuing tenaciously, following their original orders, to seal off, as they could, the walkway, keeping the pen closed, so to speak.
Details
10
18 261 I was not interested in holding the landing itself, except in so far as it protected the walkway.
Details
10
18 263 Indeed, I myself would wish to close the walkway once this evacuation was complete.
Details
10
18 286 She leaped up, sobbing, and fled toward the walkway.
Details
10
18 291 I could see, too, the backs and fins of sharks crowded about the lower edge of the walkway, near the landing.
Details
10
18 295 The water, close to the landing, by the walkway, was white with their thrashing.
Details
10
18 298 Among the free women running to, and on, the walkway, under the partial cover of the shields, I saw slave females, too, barefoot and bare-armed, in their tiny skirts, their necks in their light steel collars.
Details
10
18 300 Among those hastening on the walkway I then saw a naked figure, stumbling, being dragged by a free woman behind her on a leash.
Details
10
18 320 It seemed to me then that most of the women who wished, or dared, to attempt the walkway had done so.
Details
10
18 321 It was well for the men were being beaten back, almost to the beginning of the walkway.
Details
10
18 329 These mostly backed along, protecting their retreat with their shields, making their way in a file between the fellows still in position on the walkway, on each side of it, those I had placed there to afford protection to the women and children.
Details
10
18 331 I held my ground, as men of Ar's Station, one by one, backed past me, onto the walkway.
Details
10
18 339 I took advantage of this to pull in the flanks and send them back over the walkway, and then drew the fellows before me closer, freeing some, the lines then being shortened, to follow their fellows back.
Details
10
18 393 Few quarrels fell now at the entrance to the walkway, for those upon the wall must now fear the striking of their own men.
Details
10
18 396 Now clearly came to the walkway the moans, the weeping protests, the wailing lamentations of beauties finding tight bonds being placed on their bodies.
Details
10
18 399 I had the men of Ar's Station then, to my elation, on the walkway, drawing back on either side of me.
Details
10
18 401 Those who had much fought withdrew up the walkway, between those who had shielded the women.
Details
10
18 410 He had seen the vacillation of his men, that we had gained the walkway, that fresh troops now flanked me.
Details
10
18 426 The Cosians, regulars and mercenaries, responsive to the orders of their officer, advanced some yards onto the walkway.
Details
10
18 428 We saw a shark reach up to the landing, near the walkway, and drag a body, by the leg, back into the water.
Details
10
18 442 "You cannot hold the walkway alone," said a grizzled fellow.
Details
10
18 450 Men were hurrying back down the walkway, toward the piers.
Details
10
18 477 There was considerable excitement on the walkway near, and at, its end, and on the landing.
Details
10
18 507 "Yet, too," he said, "many claim, interestingly, to have seen the same female, she who was supposedly impaled, whoever she was, later on the wall's walkway, and later, too, with the women and children".
Details
10
18 548 We heard the small boats behind us, drawing up, near the pilings beneath the walkway.
Details
10
18 558 "They are marshaling at the end of the walkway," I said.
Details
10
18 559 I heard axes behind us, attacking the pilings of the walkway.
Details
10
18 569 Then, with shield and sword, with the ringing of metal, with shouts, with cries of war, the six of us, I, Marsias, the grizzled fellow, and the three who had come originally to the cell, struck by charging Cosians, almost swept back, struggled to hold the walkway.
Details
10
19 2 Behind us, some fifteen yards back, the walkway was afire.
Details
10
19 9 At that time the walkway was still intact, though flaming, behind us, and they could be withdrawn through the fire and smoke to the piers.
Details
10
19 14 From these two others climbed to the walkway, to take their place.
Details
10
19 16 Fins slid through the water circling the boats, and back and forth beneath the walkway, among the pilings.
Details
10
19 17 Sometimes, converging, they suddenly knifed toward a splash in the water, as one fellow or another lost his footing, or fell, bloodied, from the walkway.
Details
10
19 20 Sometimes we could see them being drawn under the walkway, being taken into its shadows.
Details
10
19 22 Often the fish fought for their prey, sometimes under the walkway itself.
Details
10
19 28 In between the assaults we gasped for breath and crouched behind our shields, resting their rims on the walkway.
Details
10
19 52 Much of the walkway was now gone, or burning.
Details
10
19 55 "We have held the walkway," said a man.
Details
10
19 58 It was true, we had held the walkway.
Details
10
19 61 It seemed odd, where we were, at the new end of that walkway, at the end of what now seemed a meaningless, eccentric bridge leading out from the landing but stopping abruptly in hewn, charred wood.
Details
10
19 62 The walkway had been cut behind us.
Details
10
19 65 There had been smoke, too, but not enough to affect what occurred on the walkway.
Details
10
19 78 There were now eleven of us on the walkway.
Details
10
19 80 One of these was the grizzled fellow, who had been among the first to stand with me on the walkway.
Details
10
19 87 The rest of us, seven men, watched the small boat pull away from the walkway.
Details
10
19 122 We, the five of us remaining on the walkway, watched this second small boat pull away, moving slowly toward the piers.
Details
10
19 132 In a bit another one of the tiny boats had come to the walkway and the two fellows embarked in it.
Details
10
19 133 There were then three of us left on the walkway.
Details
10
19 143 I was then left alone on the walkway.
Details
10
19 144 I saw a piece of the broken walkway, half submerged, off to the right.
Details
10
19 148 It seemed a long walk, coming toward me, on the walkway.
Details
10
19 150 The water lapped about the pilings beneath the walkway.
Details
10
19 202 "The walkway is meaningless," I said to him.
Details
10
19 207 He had not taken more than five steps before a number of Cosians, who had been waiting on the landing, hurried onto the walkway.
Details
10
19 211 One's shield, he charging, I struck obliquely to the side, and he, in the grip of his own momentum, lost the walkway.
Details
10
19 213 "Hold, fellows," called the officer, behind the men, he who had come with the gold on the walkway.

10
19 230 His retreat could be traced in the trail of blood on the walkway.
Details
10
19 231 I put down my shield on the walkway, and extended my hand down to the fellow in the water.
Details
10
19 235 The man in the water, frenzied with terror, his eyes bulging, seized my hand and I drew him to his stomach, to the walkway.
Details
10
19 248 I turned, suddenly, then, and ran to the end of the walkway.
Details
10
19 251 A moment or so later a dozen or so Cosians crowded the charred end of the walkway.
Details
10
19 256 I did not think that one of them, given the crowding on the walkway, would attempt the same leap.
Details
10
19 260 The men on the walkway and I regarded one another.
Details
10
20 5 I saw there, Marsias, the grizzled fellow, the men who had originally stood with me on the walkway, and many others.
Details
10
20 8 "You did well, to hold the walkway, you and others," said Aemilianus.
Details
10
20 13 I looked back to the walkway in the distance, across the inner harbor.

10
20 272 I saw the standard of Cos removed from the walkway.

10
20 341 This trust, I gathered, I had earned on the wall, at the gate, on the walkway.
Details
10
20 434 I could see the remains of the walkway from where I was.
Details
10
20 442 I looked at the walkway.

10
21 13 Marsias, too, and the fellows whom I had encountered in the cell earlier, and who had fought with us on the walkway, were there, too.

21 803 "Indeed, had you not held the wall as long as you did, and the gate, and had you not aided in the evacuation of the landing, and had you not, with others, held the walkway until it could be destroyed behind you, I think there would be few of us here now who would be alive today".

37 965 One could not climb from the pool to the walkway without a rope, or some such device, the tunnels to the walkway having been earlier sealed.

10
12 839 I saw that my net had some ropes attached to it, which extended to a wall behind the walkway where the woman stood, behind what appeared to be the exterior wall of the well-like structure.
Details
10
12 876 "Beat her! Beat her!" she called toward the walkway, that behind the wall.
Details
10
12 901 I felt the net drawn over the low wall and then I was on the walkway, supine in the net, behind the wall.

10
13 5 I lay on the walkway, on the toils of the net, on my stomach.

13 48 He bent down and lifted me up, and then sat me back, my back against the retaining wall, separating the well-like enclosure from the walkway.
Details
10
13 63 The walkway went all about the well-like enclosure.
Details
10
13 256 By these ropes, I surmised, once it was lowered on its chain, perhaps by some sort of windlass, it might be drawn toward the walkway.
Details
10
13 264 A cord, coiled on the walkway, ran to the latch.
Details
10
13 462 He and the slave were still behind me, on the walkway about the retaining wall.
Details
10
13 497 If all the passages were sealed off, and the side bars engaged, as they were now, that would isolate the walkway.
Details
10
13 498 I could still see the walkway beyond the bars in the torchlight.
Details
10
13 501 It must have opened some access between the pool and the walkway, for I heard a scratching and sniffing and then saw, to my horror, on the other side of the bars of the passage gate, reflected in the torchlight, the blazing eyes of one of the large rodentlike creatures.

10
13 624 He had, however, certainly carefully ascertained the piercing of my ears, which had apparently been of considerable interest to him, and he had, as I had lain helplessly bound before him on the walkway, with his large, rude boorish hands, or paws, if that is what they might better be termed, so heav...

37 467 The prisoner had apparently lifted the panels to the urt nest, permitting them access to the walkway, the gate having been raised to permit them, or some at least, into the passageway, the gate then being lowered.
Details
10
37 507 This new arrangement, that of five groups, made possible a more diversified deployment of the men, presumably an advantage on the walkway about the urt pool.
Details
10
37 540 Some might be on the walkway".
Details
10
37 548 "Are there other gates, accessible from the walkway?" asked the lieutenant.
Details
10
37 578 There were four gates giving access to the walkway, that through which we had entered, and, across the pool, on the other side, three, each leading to a different tunnel.
Details
10
37 580 An urt, on the walkway, at their approach, had scrambled over the railing, and dived into the pool.
Details
10
37 615 The noises about the walkway may have aroused their curiosity.
Details
10
37 681 "Hurry! Run!" The men, two to the left, and two to the right, the man with the lieutenant and the lieutenant, fled about the walkway.

37 688 "Go," said the pit master, "go," pushing Fina down the walkway.

37 709 The cord which went to the latch on the bottom of the cage over the pool went, with the other apparatus, chains and ropes, connected with the control of the cage, from the cage to the wall, over pulleys, and then down to the level of the walkway, where it, like the other devices, was secured.
Details
10
37 710 The trigger cord, which would release the latch at the bottom of the cage, was intended to be drawn, if drawn, at all, from the level of the walkway, but the cord, itself, naturally, stretched across the darkness, as I have indicated, and came to the wall.
Details
10
37 733 He had dallied in moving with us about the walkway.

10
37 748 The figure had alighted on the opposite side of the walkway, before the middle gate of the three gates on that side of the pool.
Details
10
37 769 Now she had another role to play, I suspected, one which had doubtless been projected for her earlier, one independent of the entry of the determined, tenacious black-tunicked men onto the walkway, the role of a dangling lure, one which might serve, for some purpose, as a distraction to urts.

10
37 781 Almost at the same moment Tensius had come to the place on the walkway from which the peasant had dived into the pool.
Details
10
37 816 "Close the panels which permit access to the walkway!" said the lieutenant.

37 818 The peasant now could not return through the nest, even if he survived there, to the walkway.

10
37 1069 "Is there a way from the urt nest, other than to the pool and walkway?" asked the officer of Treve.

10
37 1178 Before we left the pool area the pit master, by means of the ropes and chains controlling the cage, brought the helpless Lady Ilene, she dangling on the rope, to the wall, where he lifted her up and put her on her knees, on the walkway.
Details
10
37 1181 She then, kneeling before the pit master, put her head down to the bloody walkway.

37 1187 The light cord ran from the walkway, up, through its rings, over its pulleys, to the latch at the bottom of the cage, that securing its gate.

5 74 We were conducted along a wooden walkway.

5 79 The floor was of wood, as had been the walkway.
Details
10
32 11 The walkway from which the piers extended was heavily planked and broad, several yards in width, the piers and water on the one side and the maze of warehouses, and shops, separated by alleys, on the other, leading up to the higher districts.
Details
10
32 12 The many crates, barrels, boxes, bales, and such piled about the walkway and piers during the day were no longer in evidence, having been stowed on the ships or shut away in the warehouses.
Details
10
32 15 This absence of the usual diurnal clutter, such a massive jumble of goods, attendant on these obvious mercantile precautions, made the walkway and piers, of course, seem even more spacious, lonely, and frightening.

10
32 17 In any event, we stayed near the center of the walkway, away from the buildings and shadows.

11 77 How wonderful to belong, to be literally owned! And yet, sometimes, too, the collar has its miseries and terrors, for in it we are so vulnerable and helpless! To my left there was a sudden stir, and splash, in the water, and I spun about on the walkway in time to see a large urt submerge, it ears ba...
Details
10
11 78 I then moved, uneasily, more toward the center of the walkway.
Details
10
11 116 I had stayed rather near the center of the walkway, as I had been frightened by the nearness of the urt that had suddenly appeared, so near to me in the water below.

10
11 119 So I kept a yard or so of the walkway between me and the edge of the canal.

11 287 In a moment, holding it in place, against the walkway, with my mouth, I had, in a few bites, managed to finish the roll.

10
11 294 Ahead on the walkway were more shops, amongst them something of an emporium for scrolls, some of which might be purchased, and others rented.

11 315 As I had departed, he had called out to me, and cast a roll to the walkway.

21 90 Was this some accident? Had I been mistaken for someone else? Who would wish to attack me? Who would wish to kill me, and why, I, a helpless slave? What had I done? Was this some terrible mistake? Was I, unknown to myself, involved in intrigues, plots, or schemes about which I knew nothing? Was I th...
Details
10
21 91 Had he followed me from the Golden Chain? Had he been waiting for the missile to strike me, that he might be the first to reach the body, perhaps to examine it for messages? Was it a mere happenstance that he was on the walkway? Surely he would not know me, not from long ago, in Brundisium.
Details
10
21 96 I would cross the bridge and return to the Golden Chain by means of the other walkway, the Thieves' Way North.
Details
10
21 97 But perhaps his presence on the walkway was a mere coincidence? In the vicinity of the bridge, when I looked again, he was much closer than I had thought he might be.
Details
10
21 105 I could outdistance him easily, and it would be easy to return to the Golden Chain by means of the opposite walkway, the Thieves' Way North.
Details
10
23 97 Some forty paces down the walkway, the first guardsman stopped before a portal where flowers grew in boxes on either side of the portal, knocked politely, and called within.
Details
10
27 17 I had presumed originally that he, as is often the case with the disabled, the maimed, the helpless, and unemployable, contemplated soliciting a tarsk-bit or so from one or another of the fellows who helped compose the sparse traffic along the walkway.
Details
10
27 46 I looked down the walkway.
Details
10
27 90 "Let her alone! She is a poor, helpless slave! She cannot even speak!" He hobbled a step toward me, as though he might intervene, but the first man, with a bitter laugh, and a sweep of his foot, kicked the crutch from under him and he fell heavily, awkwardly, to the walkway.
Details
10
27 91 Bruno of Torcadino reached out to retrieve the crutch, but the first man kicked it several feet down the walkway.
Details
10
27 111 I was drawn forward by the ankles, and I was then on my back, on the walkway, ankles held apart.
Details
10
27 171 Bruno of Torcadino looked down, to his side, where his assailant lay on the walkway, clutching his throat, blood streaming, in gouts, a cup at a time, between his hands.

37 1 I Prove to be of Service to Masters The smooth tiles of the walkway, one of many in Port Kar, somewhere in the city, were warm to my feet.
Details
10
37 33 How should I know where I was? I had been brought here, hooded, in a canal boat and only relieved of the hood on the walkway.
Details
10
37 47 I was now well ready to be relieved of this burdensome, pointless task, but the two fellows down the walkway gave me scant attention.
Details
10
37 202 I had carried paga to him, not in the Golden Chain, but in the house of Bosk! "Are you Publion?" asked Florian, of one of the fellows on the walkway, he closest.
Details
10
37 210 Florian then raised his arm, lifting and straightening my body, his hand still in my hair, until only my toes were on the walkway.
Details
10
37 215 "Lady?" asked the other fellow who had emerged from the boat, who seemed the senior of the two who were now on the walkway.

10
37 225 The Lady Dorna went to the edge of the walkway.

10
37 264 His two men descended from the walkway, slipping into the boat.
Details
10
37 268 I felt Florian's sandaled foot against my fundament, pressing, and he gave me a vigorous push, and I, so impelled, half stumbled, half fell, into the canal boat which, even then, as Florian boarded, was drawing away from the walkway.
Details
10
42 225 We made our way boat by boat, on this planking, twice turning corners, and then reached a walkway.
Details
10
42 226 On this walkway, amongst some men and women, waiting, gathered perhaps for news, was Seremides, Talena, and a slave in the livery of the Golden Chain, holding what appeared to be a flat, soft, folded bundle.
Details
10
42 229 Vas of Anango lowered me to the walkway and I found myself in leading position, my head at his hip, his hand twisted in my hair.
Details
10
42 243 She was clearly surprised, and confused, to see me here, on the walkway.

10
42 244 Her lips silently framed the question, "Zia?" In the meantime, Seremides had apparently said something to one of the men in the boat because he had ascended to the walkway.
