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: A quick sign, and Kar Komak turned once more to find
the Thuria's dwar that he might report himself for duty.
Behind him followed the panthan.
Carthoris blessed the chance that had caused Vas Kor
to choose the bowman of all others, for had it been
another Dusarian there would have been questions
to answer as to the whereabouts of the warrior who lay
so quietly in the field beyond the residence of Hal Vas,
Dwar of the Southern Road; and Carthoris had no answer to
that question other than his sword point, which alone was
scarce adequate to convince the entire crew of the Thuria.
