Summary
Who dared to dream as a man of the Akademiya? That riddle’s very existence bothered him like a stray thread unraveled from the ends of a shirtsleeve, or a stray seed that had found its way into his fruit’s flesh, or an itch on his back that he could not quite reach properly. Kaveh was like a rune left untranslated, its meaning beyond the capability of his mother tongue, a multitude of opposing meanings concisely tucked into one compact symbol. That untranslated rune was a challenge in itself, to make into solid words meaning and sense, to turn paradox into logic. Even after all these years, he had yet to solve it.
Kaveh is commissioned to build the Palace of Alcazarzaray. Al-Haitham puzzles over its existence, among other things.
