From left: On Ohrid Lake’s rocky shore, an ancient sage meditated, his bird-like face carved by time and fasting. Swallows skimmed waters. The novice’s azure beads glinted. “Master,” he murmured, “your strength wanes like autumn light.” Behind them stood a monastery, half-hidden among olive trees, its burned walls whispering tales of sacrilege.
“At night, Master, I see them: Hellenic maidens weaving flower crowns with blue wildflowers, their hair flowing with their hearts’ rhythm.” The youth’s voice trembled. Through azure darkness, mysterious figures like shadows – Macedonian shepherds driving boars through olive groves, Dryads herding pearl-white goats, laughter echoing across deep blue Aegean waters.
Lilies and roses, planted by long-departed Orthodox monks, wove through the garden where ferns advanced like silent armies. “The ancient Thracian gods still walk here,” the old man murmured, eyes gleaming. Beyond the flower-strewn ruins, cypress groves stretched toward horizon, harboring secrets of Cyclopes and Thessalian nymphs dancing in moonlight.
“I seek the moment when immortal spirits sing,” the sage revealed, clutching his cypress staff. “When the sun passes between Ram and Lion, their song trembles through creation. Tomorrow at dawn, I shall hear it.” His eyes blazed with ancient wisdom, reflecting centuries of searching through Byzantine and Delphic lore.
The youth gathered roses bright as rubies and lilies white as pearls, weaving them through rushes as the last grains of sand fell. “You’ll find me young again,” the master had promised. When dawn painted the walls with clear light, he sat motionless, embracing the dewy flowers, his quest ended.
