The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from Thuvia, Maid of Mars by Edgar Rice Burroughs: He was almost at the door. Around the next turn of the
corridor it stood. No, they had not left the apartment.
Evidently Vas Kor was still holding the Heliumite!
Astok could scarce repress a grin at the clever manner
in which he had outwitted the noble and disposed of
him at the same time. And then he rounded the turn and
came face to face with an auburn-haired, white giant.
The fellow did not wait to ask the reason for his coming;
instead he leaped upon him with a long-sword, so that
Astok had to parry a dozen vicious cuts before he
could disengage himself and flee back down the runway.
Thuvia, Maid of Mars |
