Mardi Volume 1 Chapter 73 - Advancing deeper into the Vale, they encounter Donjalolo

In which the troubled Prince Donjalolo, once noted for temperance and prudence, becomes ensnared in a restless turmoil of excess and remorse upon the death of his father and the constraints of his isle’s law. His spirit, yearning for a grander purpose yet confined within narrow bounds, is tossed between fleeting resolutions of virtue and plunges into reckless abandon, haunted by spectres of his lineage.
