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…

Chapter VIII plunges Thuvia into the core of Lothar’s delusion, alone in the company of Tario, the intangible Jeddak whose will shapes the world around him. With regal defiance, she declares her identity—not as a vision or fantasy, but as a daughter of Ptarth. Tario’s disbelief is clear; to him, all things are constructs of thought, and Thuvia's assertion of reality is both fascinating and threatening. He tries to bend her emotions with hypnotic force, weaving her senses into a web of momentary…

Chapter VII brings Carthoris and Thuvia into the strange world of Lothar, where nothing can be trusted at face value. Their arrival is met not with hospitality, but with confusion as Jav confronts them, backed by bowmen who vanish like mist. Carthoris prepares for battle, but his enemy dissolves before he can strike—a disorienting moment that leaves both him and Thuvia wary. Jav, instead of explaining plainly, presents riddles cloaked in logic, slowly revealing that the bowmen were mere…

The dead are gone—no bodies, no trace—leaving only a haunted silence where violence once reigned. Carthoris, grounded in action and reason, cannot reconcile what he sees with what he knows. Thuvia shares his confusion, though her instincts sense something more than just mystery. They press forward toward the looming city of Lothar, driven by the belief that shelter might lie within. The…

The oppressive darkness is pierced only by his determination and the cold gleam of his blade. Each step forward is a victory against the fear pressing in around him. Emerging into a luminous valley under the light of Mars’s moons, he’s struck by the surreal beauty of the hidden world before him—lush landscapes, red-furred lions, and copper-skinned…

Chapter IV thrusts Thuvia into the clutches of captors whose motives remain cloaked behind false banners and half-spoken threats. At first, she sees the markings of Dusar and braces for hostility. But the insignia of Helium offers a fleeting glimmer of hope—perhaps these men are allies. That illusion vanishes when her questions are dodged, and she is flown to a long-abandoned city hidden within Barsoom’s desolate lands. Once a thriving metropolis, now it echoes only the whispers of ancient fears and…

Though official channels are followed, personal motives mix in—the prince is determined not only to preserve Helium’s standing but to understand…

Chapter I begins within the verdant heart of Ptarth’s royal gardens, where Thuvia sat beneath the soft blossoms of a towering pimalia. Her stillness was deceiving, for inwardly she wrestled with the unwelcome persistence of Astok, Prince of Dusar. His declarations, wrapped in veiled arrogance and disregard for her will, only deepened her scorn. He misunderstood her civility as invitation, forgetting the restraint expected of Martian nobility. When his forwardness crossed the line, Carthoris of Helium…
