Ngao, Lake of
Then the marsh
reeds parted and I saw, before us, sparkling in the sun, broad and shining,
the waters of Lake Ngao. How beautiful it is," breathed the blond-haired barbarian, in English.
It had taken us fifteen days to reach the sill.
We had lived by spear fishing, and drinking the fresh water of the marsh.The sun shone on the wide, placid waters. Explorers of Gor, page

Northern Forest, Region of
It is not known
how far these forests extend. It is not impossible that they belt the land
surfaces of the planet. They begin near the shores of Thassa, the Sea, in
the west. How far they extend to the east is not known. They do extend
beyond the most northern ridges of the Thentis Mountains. Captive of Gor
Pg 129
The northern forests, the haunts of bandits and
unusual beasts, far to the north and east of Ko-ro-ba, my city, are
magnificent, deep forests, covering hundreds of thousands of square
pasangs Assassin of Gor Pg 293-294
The forests of the northern temperate latitudes of Gor are countries
in themselves, covering hundreds of thousands of square pasangs of area.....It
is not known how far these forests extend. It is not impossible that they
belt the land surfaces of the planet. They begin near the shores of Thassa,
the Sea, in the west. How far they extend to the east is not known. They
do extend beyond the most northern ridges of the Thentis Mountains.

Yet on the trackless beaches, lining the western edge of the great
northern forests for hundreds of pasangs, below the bleakness of
Torvaldsland, it would not be easy to make rendezvous. Hunters
of Gor Pg 243
We were fifty pasangs north of Lydius, which port lies at the mouth
of the Laurius River. Far above the beach we could see the green margins
of the great northern forests. Hunters of Gor Pg 18
Also known as exchange islands, they are administered as Free Ports
by the Merchants. Included are Teletus, Tabor, and Scagnar. Others were
Farnacium, Hulneth and Asperiche. In the south are Anango and Landa, and
in the far north, Hunger and Skjern, west of Torvaldsland. These islands,
and free ports on the coast such as Lydius and Helmutsport, Schendi and
Bazi make possible the commerce between Cos and Tyros and cities of the
mainland. Raiders of Gor Pg 137
Northern Islands
There were the
northern islands, of course, and they were numerous, but small, extending
in an archipelago like a scimitar northeastward from Cos, which lay some
four hundred pasangs west of Port Kar. But these islands were not united,
and, indeed, the government of them was usually no more than a village
council. They usually possessed no vessels more noteworthy than
clinker-built skiffs and coasters. Raiders of Gor, page 106
Northern Salt Line, Road of
Torcodino, on
the flats of Serpeto, is a crossroads city. It is located at the
intersection of various routes, the Genesian, connecting Brundisium and
other coastal cities with the south, the Northern Salt Line and the
Northern Silk Road, leading respectively west and north from the east and
south, the Pilgrim's Road, leading to the Sardar, and the Eastern way,
sometimes called the Treasure Road, which links the western cities with
Ar." Mercenaries of Gor, page 101

"It is an
important subequatorial waterway," I said. "It flows west by northwest,
entering the rain forests and emptying into Lake Ushindi, which lake is
drained by the Kamba and the Nyoka rivers...

I shrugged. Much of Gor was
terra incognita. Few knew well the lands on the east of the Voltai and Thentis
ranges, for example, or what lay west of the farther islands, near Cos and
Tyros. It was more irritating, of course, to realize that even considerable
areas of territory above Schendi, south of the Vosk, and west of Ar, were
unknown. Explorers of Gor Pg 16 |
