4.02 - Glass Souls

The world's greatest artist Piero has arrived from across the seas with his assistant Angel. He has been commissioned by the Empire’s self-style “Queen Mother” Fatima (Kirsty Bushell), to create a great work glorifying her rule. But Tumanbay is no longer the gleaming city it was after a period of brutal occupation and tensions and suspicions abound. The blind Grand Master Amalric (Anton Lesser), leader of a fearsome religious order of knights, has his own plans for the city, plans that involve the religious figurehead, the Hafiz. But the Hafiz has gone missing. The only person who can find him is spymaster Gregor (Rufus Wright) who is languishing in the Palace of the Blind, a madhouse in the desert where unwanted officials and rulers are exiled. Tumanbay is created by John Scott Dryden and Mike Walker.
