Chapter IV — Crome yellow
Chapter IV begins with Denis experiencing a morning of quiet indecision, his mood shaped by small choices that feel disproportionately important. Faced with a choice between black and white shoes, he examines himself in the mirror with exaggerated care. Though well-dressed in patent leather, he remains unconvinced by his own reflection—both proud and self-critical. This duality echoes through his behavior as he descends to breakfast, where he finds Jenny already present. Their interaction is fragmented,…-

Chapter III — Crome Yellow
Chapter III opens with a view that feels both grand and isolating—a high terrace overlooking sculpted nature. From this lofty perch, the estate below stretches with well-groomed intent: a swimming pool gleaming under the sun, manicured lawns fading into distant treetops, and a river cutting quietly through the horizon. The architecture of the scene suggests control, but the mood hints at something more precarious. It’s a place where beauty conceals subtle tensions. At the summer-house below, a group…-

Each room evokes a personality, a mood shaped by the invisible presence of those who have inhabited the space. His eyes move from paintings to furniture, noting how the past lingers in these carefully preserved corners. He finds amusement in imagining conversations that never happened, assigning thoughts and…-

Chapter I — Crome Yellow
Chapter I begins with Denis sitting in a slow-moving train, watching the countryside blur past in measured monotony. Each stop, marked by oddly named stations, becomes a quiet reminder of how unremarkable the journey has been so far. He doesn’t travel with excitement but with an undercurrent of fatigue, both physical and mental. His suitcase shuffles from one seat corner to another, not out of necessity but as a way to distract himself from the weight of wasted time. Thoughts swirl as he counts the…-

Chapter XIV places Thuvia of Ptarth at the edge of despair, locked away by Astok in a chamber that seems to mock her hopes. She sits in silence, believing escape to be a fantasy, the walls around her thick with defeat. Her mind clings to the memory of Carthoris of Helium, a man whose courage and decency stand in contrast to the treachery she now faces. Astok, lacking both honor and strength, plots behind the door with Vas Kor. Their whispered conversation reveals a dark plan—Thuvia’s death, a permanent…

Chapter XIII reveals Carthoris of Helium caught in a delicate situation—he must walk the line between loyalty to his homeland and a temporary alliance with Dusar, the very nation now at war with Helium. His choice to disguise himself as a panthan under the name “Turjun” allows him to infiltrate Dusar’s ranks without revealing his true identity. It’s a decision made not out of deceit but of strategy, and his restraint marks him as someone thinking beyond the personal. His goal is to learn,…

Jav, her only companion and protector, bravely confronts the beast but is quickly overpowered and killed.

Chapter X — Thuvia- Maid of Mars
Chapter X begins with the quiet companionship of Carthoris and Thuvia moving steadily through the Martian landscape. Words are few, yet each step affirms the trust forming between them. Their silence speaks volumes, filled with glances that reveal more than conversation ever could. But this fragile peace shatters when Carthoris suddenly discovers Thuvia has disappeared. Panic replaces calm, and he realizes she was never there—only a mirage shaped by Jav's powers. The betrayal slices deep, not just for… -
Chapter IX places Carthoris, Thuvia, and Jav in the heart of Lothar’s enigma—a city ruled not by armies but by the imagination of its few remaining minds. They are led into a chamber where fear briefly grips them at the sight of Komal, a ferocious banth worshipped as a deity. But what seems to be divine wrath is calmed not by steel, but by Thuvia’s voice. Her steady tone and unshaken gaze soothe the beast, proving that connection, not force, holds true power. This moment blurs the line between myth…
