ara of Helium rose from the pile of silks and soft furs upon which she
had been reclining, stretched her lithe body languidly, and crossed to-
ward the center of the room, where, above a large table, a bronze disc de-
pended from the low ceiling. Her carriage was that of health and physi-
cal perfection-the effortless harmony of faultless coordination. A scarf of
silken gossamer crossing over one shoulder was wrapped about her body;
her black hair was piled high upon her head. With a wooden stick she tapped
upon the bronze disc, lightly, and presently the summons was answered by
a slave girl, who entered, smiling, to be greeted similarly by her mistress.
"Are my father's guests arriving?" asked the princess.
"Yes, Tara ofHelium, they come," replied the slave. "I have seenKantosKan,
Overlord of the Navy, and Prince Soran of Ptarth, and Djor Kantos, son of
Kantos Kan," she shot a roguish glance at her mistress as she mentioned Djor
Kantos' name, "and-oh, there were others, many have come."
3 EDGAR RICE BURROUGHS
"The bath, then, Uthia," said her mistress. "And why, Uthia," she added,
"do you look thus and smile when you mention the name of Djor Kantos?"
The slave girl laughed gaily. "It is so plain to all that he worships you," she
replied.
"It is not plain to me," said Tara of Helium. "He is the friend of my brother,
Carthoris, and so he is here much; but not to see me. It is his friendship for
Carthoris that brings him thus often to the palace of my father."
"But Carthoris is hunting in the north with Talu, Jeddak of Okar," Uthia
reminded her.
"My bath, Uthia!" cried Tara of Helium. "That tongue of yours will bring
you to some misadventure yet."
"The bath is ready, Tara of Helium," the girl responded, her eyes still twin-
kling with merriment, for she well knew that in the heart of her mistress
was no anger that could displace the love of the princess for her slave. Pre-
ceding the daughter of The Warlord she opened the door of an adjoining
room where lay the bath-a gleaming pool of scented water in a marble basin.
Golden stanchions supported a chain of gold encircling it and leading down
into the water on either side of marble steps. A glass dome let in the sun-
light, which flooded the interior, glancing from the polished white of the
marble walls and the procession of bathers and fishes, which, in conven-
tional design, were inlaid with gold in a broad band that circled the room.
Tara of Helium removed the scarf from about her and handed it to the slave.
Slowly she descended the steps to the water, the temperature of which she
tested with a symmetrical foot, undeformed by tight shoes and high heels-a
lovely foot, as God intended that feet should be and seldom are. Finding
the water to her liking, the girl swam leisurely to and fro about
"Synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.

Right of withdrawal
Instructions for revocation
Right of withdrawal for the sale of goods
Revocation right for consumers
(A ‘consumer' is any natural person who concludes a legal transaction which, to an overwhelming extent, cannot be attributed to either his commercial or independent professional activities.)
Instructions for revocation
Revocation right
You have the right to revoke this contract within 14 days without specifying any reasons.
The revocation period is 14 days with effect from the day,
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the products, provided you had ordered one or more products within the scope of a standard order and this/these product/products is/are delivered uniformly;
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last product, provided you had ordered several products within the scope of a standard order and these products are delivered separately;
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last part delivery or the last unit, provided you had ordered a product, which is delivered in several part deliveries or units;
To exercise your right of withdrawal, you must inform us (preigu GmbH & Co. KG, Lengericher Landstr. 19, 49078 Osnabrück, Telephone number: +49 (0) 541 / 580 72 84, E-Mail address: mail@preigu.de) by means of a clear declaration (e.g. a letter sent by post, or an e-mail) of your decision to withdraw from this contract. You can use the attached model withdrawal form for this purpose, which is, however, not mandatory.
You can also exercise your right of withdrawal online by clicking on a button labelled accordingly (such as ‘Withdraw from contract' or similar) on the AbeBooks/ZVAB website. If you use this online function, you will immediately receive a confirmation of receipt on a durable medium (e.g. via email) containing information on the content of the withdrawal notice, as well as the date and time of its receipt.
In order to safeguard the revocation period, it is sufficient that you send the notification about the exercise of the revocation right before the expiry of the revocation period.
Consequences of the revocation
If you revoke this contract, we shall repay all the payments, which we received from you, including the delivery costs (with the exception of additional costs, which arise from that fact that you selected a form of delivery other than the most reasonable standard delivery offered by us), immediately and at the latest within 14 days from the day on which we received the notification about the revocation of this contract from you. We use the same means of payment, which you had originally used during the original transaction, for this repayment unless expressly agreed otherwise with you; you will not be charged any fees owing to this repayment.
We can refuse the repayment until the products are returned to us or until you have furnished evidence that you have sent the products back to us, depending on whichever is earlier.
You must return or transfer the products to us immediately and, in any case, at the latest within 14 days with effect from the day on which you inform us of the revocation of this contract. The deadline is maintained if you send the products before the expiry of the 14 day deadline.
You bear the direct costs for returning the products.
You must pay for any depreciation of the products only if this depreciation can be attributed to any handling with you that was not necessary for checking the condition, features and functionality of the products.

The revocation right is not available for contracts
