| Bond Maid "She was blond; she was barefoot; she wore an ankle-length white kirtle, of white wool, sleeveless, split to her belly." "Marauders of Gor" Page 81 Kajira "Kajira is perhaps the most common expression for a female slave." "Nomads of Gor" Page 30 Kajirus "For a male slave, or Kajirus," "Nomads of Gor" Page 30 "Then one of the men of Tyros lifted the iron, glowing redly, from the fire. Its marking surface, its termination, soft and red in the night, was in the form of a large, block letter in Gorean script, the initial of Kajirus, a common Gorean expression for a male slave. "Hunters of Gor" page 201 ? Male Slave "Male slaves, on Gor, are not particularly valuable, and do not command high prices. Most labor is performed by free men. Most commonly, male slaves are utilized on the cargo galleys, and in the mines, and on the great farms. They also serve, frequently, as porters at the wharves. Still, perhaps they are fortunate to have their lives, even at such a price. Males captured in war, or in the seizure of cylinders or villages, or in the pillaging of caravans, are commonly slain. The female is the prize commodity in the Gorean slave market. A high price for a male is a silver tarsk, but even a plain wench, of low caste, provided she moves well to the touch of the auctioneer�s coiled whip, will bring as much, or more" "Hunters of Gor" page 302 ? Sa-fora "Kajira is perhaps the most common expression for a female slave. Another frequently heard expression is Sa-fora, a compound word, meaning, rather literally, Chain Daughter, or Daughter of the Chain." "Nomads of Gor" Page 30 Silk Girl term used by those of Torvaldsland to denote a slave girl from the southern cities; often used disparagingly. "Marauders of Gor" page 144 Silk Clad Male "An exception to the low prices for males generally is that paid for a certified woman�s slave, a handsome male, silken clad, who has been trained to tend a woman�s compartments. Some of such bring a price comparable to that brought by a girl, of average loveliness. Prices, of course, tend to fluctuate with given markets and seasons. Of there are few such on the market at a given time, their prices will tend to be proportionately higher. Such men tend to be sold in women�s auctions, closed to free men, with the exception, of course, of the auctioneer and such personnel." "Hunters of Gor" page 31 ? Thralls "Men in the fields wore short tunics of white wool; some carried hoes; their hair was close cropped; about their throats had been hammered bands of black iron, with a welded ring attached. They did not leave the fields; such a departure, without permission, might mean their death; they were thralls." "Marauders of Gor" Page 49? |
