Über diesen Titel
The 8th-century harbors of Kerala were places of filth and fortune — where pepper was worth more than gold, and men drank away their dignity in toddy shacks thick with smoke and the old perfume of harlots.
Here, among the lowest castes, deceit was the air they breathed: false weights on the scales, dice loaded with trickery, women’s laughter bought and sold.
But one merchant, a man named Arivan, dared to refuse. He set aside the hollow weight and placed the true stone on the scale. That single act of honesty shattered his place among the outcasts, turned his friends into mockers, and left him wandering the alleys in exile.
Yet what began in scorn would end in something far more lasting, a ripple of virtue that even ruin could not erase.
