To The Reader
To The Reader, this opening note is not just a formality but a pointed defense of truth against the spread of fantasy.

A version of Lazarillo's life, recently printed and circulated, told of him falling into the sea and transforming into a fish—a tuna no less—complete with underwater battles, a scaly wife, and tuna offspring.

PART THE THIRD
Part the Third begins with Paphnutius returning to the desert, the place that once represented peace, holiness, and divine focus.

The sand, once a symbol of spiritual purification, now reflects only the dryness within his heart. He tries to pray, kneeling on familiar ground, but his prayers echo back unanswered, lost in a silence that now feels oppressive. His disciples greet him with reverence, but…-

PART THE SECOND
Part the Second opens with Paphnutius standing in silence, his gaze fixed upon the barred window behind which Thais had disappeared into a life of penance.

In the stillness that followed his final blessing, Paphnutius departed without fanfare, stepping away from the convent walls with the solemn dignity of one who had cast the world behind him.
