The Ring in the Stone (The Count of Monte Cristo, Chapter 24 – Part 4)
Manage episode 514132783 series 3640498
With a final heave, Dantès topples the massive rock into the sea.
In The Count of Monte Cristo, Chapter 24, he discovers beneath it an iron ring set into a flagstone — the entrance to a hidden grotto. Yet even as he pries it open and reveals steps vanishing into darkness, Edmond hesitates. Fear and doubt strike him: what if Faria’s dream was nothing, or worse, already plundered by another hand? At the edge of discovery, hope and dread clash in his heart.
