Chapter VIII ‑Frivolous Cupid
Chapter VIII opens with Ashimullah once again caught in the tightening grip of court expectations, his personal beliefs increasingly at odds with the roles imposed on him by his royal duties.

His detachment from nature’s softness and life's emotional tides is deliberate, shielding himself behind intellectual walls. It is in this meditative state that Miss May finds him. She arrives, seemingly playful, yet…-

The narrator, a quietly attentive observer, first paints Jack Ives as bold and straightforward—one of the few men at ease in courting Trix Queenborough despite her wealth and status. Rather than being intimidated, he thrives on the challenge she presents, while others circle cautiously, weighed down by propriety or calculation. Trix,…-
