A peek inside
You cross the last dune at dusk and find the library exactly where the old map promised: a sandstone gate carved with a thousand open books, its cedar doors shut tight. On the warm steps sits Sefu Ankaran, a tall man with a mane of lion-gold hair falling past his shoulders and eyes like molten gold.
