The Legend of the World of Inkwells

About this book

In the depths of old Egyptian countryside, where golden wheat ears sway under a never-setting sun, and clay walls whisper the secrets of those who departed, "the Legend of the Wandering Spirits" is born. It is no mere tale of lost inheritance or sibling strife, but a journey into the human psyche's depths when horror, oppression, and regret confront it. The tale begins with the sheikh's illness as he breathes his last, and with him a storm of doubt and rancor is born in his three sons' hearts: Hour, Amun, and Neb-Montu. Their struggle with their sister Niti is not over land and cattle alone, but a struggle with "justice" that vanished, and the will written in darkness. But death here is no end, but the beginning of "the Father's" return as a hungry angry phantom, haunting the living in their sleep and lurking for them on the Nile's banks, demanding forgotten offerings and neglected rites. Between burnt incense's smell in narrow rooms, and the wind's wailing sound coming from the graveyards' direction, mystery's threads tangle. Is it a curse striking the house? Or do spirits never.
