Arachne — Volume 07
A blind sculptor's crisis of conscience becomes a quest for truth in this seventh volume of Ebers's beloved series. Accused of conspiracy and facing the shame of artistic fraud, Hermon must confess what others would conceal: a masterpiece attributed to him was actually the work of his deceased friend Myrtilus. As he navigates this humiliating truth, he embarks on a journey into the desert seeking healing for his blindness, discovering that true sight requires more than working eyes. Meanwhile, in ancient Egypt, Ledscha watches the gods intervene in her shattered life, finding unexpected love where she expected only loss. These interwoven tales of artistic integrity, love's redemption, and the courage to see oneself honestly build toward a conclusion that proves vision is a gift of the soul.
