I liked this glimpse into the character's thinking: " I know nothing of where we are, and where I have to go, what I need to do. And he is the only one who to knows anything at all about me. "

I can't imagine being so dependent on a single person as this, but that necessity is part of what makes the character interactions so fascinating. Anāmaka *needs* Malasāra, and it seems like the reverse might be true as well. There are so many interesting ways their relationship can develop based on this need, and not necessarily in friendly or healthy ways.

Reminds me of Zelazny's Lords of Light. (Not saying you sourced or anything.)

I hadn’t heard of this book before, and I looked it up—whoa, the plot sounds like a mad acid trip! 😆 Definitely going to get a copy!
