The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from The Warlord of Mars by Edgar Rice Burroughs: love of Phaidor, daughter of the Holy Hekkador. Accept and your
princess shall be returned to the court of her grandfather, and you
shall live in peace and happiness. Refuse and the fate that my
father has threatened shall fall upon Dejah Thoris.
"You cannot save her now, for by this time they have reached a place
where even you may not follow. Refuse and naught can save you;
for, though the way to the last stronghold of the Holy Therns
was made easy for you, the way hence hath been made impossible.
What say you?"
The Warlord of Mars |
