| 95 | "I am looking for quotes of descriptions on how the people of Thentis looked? If they were oriental in culture/physical attributes"
Answer
Hello,
Well, after searching, I find that the girls mentioned as being from Thentis
are white skinned and blond. One of the men described is said to resemble
Tarl, who we know is white skinned and had red hair. So I think it safe to
assume that those of Thentis do not resemble what we would say are oriental
in physical attributes. As for cultural, there is no such evidence of this
either.

On a tower of Thentis I left her, kissing her, removing from my neck her
clinging hands. She was crying, with all the incomprehensible absurdity of
the female kind. I hauled the tarn aloft, waving back at the small figure
still wearing the diagonally striped livery of the slave. Her white arm was
lifted, and her blond hair was swept behind her on the windy roof of the
cylinder.

Many of them were beauties, and I thought that the chain, though small, was
a rich one, and that almost any man might find thereon a woman to his taste.
They were vital, splendid creatures, many of them undoubtedly exquisitely
trained to delight the senses of a master. And many of the cities of Gor
were represented on that chain, sometimes spoken of as the Slaver's
Necklace - there was a blond girl from lofty Thentis, a dark-skinned girl
with black hair that fell to her ankles from the desert city of Tor, girls
from the miserable streets of Port Kar in the delta of the Vosk, girls even
from the high cylinders of Great Ar itself.

. . . two blond slave girls, clad in brief white, bells on their left
ankles, walking together and laughing, speaking in the accents of Thentis .. .

This was prior to the death of the Warrior of Thentis, who resembled me,
which had given me independent reason for coming to Ar, and in the guise of
an Assassin.
