Below them, on the ground, moved the horned dinosaur and when they reached the edge of the forest where there lay fifty yards of open ground to cross to the foot of the cliff he was there with them, at the bottom of the tree, waiting. Tarzan looked ruefully down and scratched his head. Jungle Craft Presently he looked up and at Pan-at-lee.
But Pan-at-lee! it is she I seek first even before a chieftainship." "We three, then, shall travel together," said Tarzan. "And fight together," added Ta-den; "the three as one," and as he spoke he drew his knife and held it above his head. "The three as one," repeated Om-at, drawing his weapon and duplicating Ta-den's act. "It is spoken!" "The three as one!" cried Tarzan of the Apes.
"But how would he know that you loved Ta-den," parried Pan-at-lee. "I tell you, my Princess, that if he is not a god he is at least more than Ho-don or Waz-don. He followed me from the cave of Es-sat in Kor-ul-ja across Kor-ul-lul and two wide ridges to the very cave in Kor-ul-gryf where I hid, though many hours had passed since I had come that way and my bare feet left no impress upon the ground.
There was a movement in the trees at the cliff's foot. Again the bellow, low and ominous. It was answered from below the deserted village. Something dropped from the foliage of a tree directly below the cave in which Pan-at-lee slept it dropped to the ground among the dense shadows. Now it moved, cautiously. It moved toward the foot of the cliff, taking form and shape in the moonlight.
O-lo-a looked ruefully at Pan-at-lee. "She was brought to me but yesterday," she said, "and never have I had slave woman who pleased me better. I shall hate to part with her." "But there are others," said Tarzan. "Yes," replied O-lo-a, "there are others, but there is only one Pan-at-lee." "Many slaves are brought to the city?" asked Tarzan. "Yes," she replied.
Ja-don, taking with him the princess, her women, and their slaves, including Pan-at-lee, as well as the women and children of his faithful followers, retreated not only from the palace but from the city of A-lur as well and fell back upon his own city of Ja-lur.
The muscles of the Tor-o-don relaxed in death with the last thrust of Tarzan's knife and with its hold upon the ape-man released it shot from sight into the gorge below. It was with infinite difficulty that Pan-at-lee retained her hold upon the ankle of her protector, but she did so and then, slowly, she sought to drag the dead weight back to the safety of the niche.
"And," supplemented Pan-at-lee, her savage little heart loyal to the man who had befriended her and hoping to win for him the consideration of the princess even though it might not avail him; "and," she said, "did he not know all about Ta-den and even his whereabouts. Tell me, O Princess, could mortal know such things as these?" "Perhaps he saw Ta-den," suggested O-lo-a.
"Triceratops, London, paleo I don't know what you are talking about," cried Pan-at-lee. Tarzan smiled and threw a piece of dead wood at the face of the angry creature below them. Instantly the great bony hood over the neck was erected and a mad bellow rolled upward from the gigantic body.
"That is one of the peculiarities of the gryf it is said that man never knows of its presence until it is upon him so silently does it move despite its great size." "But I should have smelled it," cried Tarzan, disgustedly. "Smelled it!" ejaculated Pan-at-lee. "Smelled it?" "Certainly. How do you suppose I found this deer so quickly? And I sensed the gryf, too, but faintly as at a great distance."
