The time and the place are universal. Set in a simple landscape of mountains and rivers, deep-running vales and the ever-changing pageantry of the seasons, it is a world that is as profound and as beautiful and, ultimately, as revelatory as our own. A world in which Metaxaeus and Akasha shall come to find each other even as they come to find themselves. The Sapphire Song is a meditation on the possibilities of love, when seen in the light of the spirit, with an eye to the culminating discoveries that await an individual on the spiritual journey. A timeless portrayal of the value of seeking the sacred as it unfolds itself to us in the oft-secreted presence of our own deepest dreams, and told from the outset in luminous language with the poignancy of a parable, this is a story that blossoms, long before its final pages, into lasting poetic resonance, lingering in the memory for days to come...ae.
