noon
That night a great feast was spread in the pal-e-don-so and for the first time in the history of ancient Pal-ul-don black warriors sat in peace and friendship with white . And a pact was sealed between Ja-don and Om-at that would ever make his tribe and the Ho-don allies and friends . It was here that Tarzan learned the cause of Ta-den 's failure to attack at the stipulated time . A messenger had come from Ja-don carrying instructions to delay the attack until noon , nor had they discovered until almost too late that the messenger was a disguised priest of Lu-don . And they had put him to death and scaled the walls and come to the inner temple court with not a moment to spare . The following day O-lo-a and Pan-at-lee and the women of Ja-don 's family arrived at the palace at A-lur and in the great throneroom Ta-den and O-lo-a were wed , and Om-at and Pan-at-lee . For a week Tarzan and Jane and Korak remained the guests of Ja-don , as did Om-at and his black warriors .
