The roofs of Montefiore

The name of the world

Lago Verde

What they told her, what she saw

Don't leave, don't follow

A pack of dirty thieves

Trouble and his sister

I am a girl who did no wrong

Cesare

Lucrezia

I am a woman who slept with my father the Pope

What I saw then

I am a rock whose hands have appetites

A moment ago

A stroll in the country

Under the twists of thornbank

What lies in the mirror
Prince Dschem's secret

The three eyes of God

The vision in San Francesco

1506

Bianca awake

Shades of rock

I am a gooseboy or am I a goose

Mirrormirror

I am a hunter who cannot kill

Bring me her heart carved from her chest

Interview with an assassin

A walk in the woods

The heart of the woods

I am a rock and my brothers are rocks

Seven

1512

The dwarves

A hole in the world

The beast in the wall

Al-iksir

Vicente

Mirror mirror

The return of the prodigal

Beware beware

The figure in the clearing

Interviews

An ivory comb, my dear

I am a girl who did little wrong

She wakes once more

A bodice, my darling

Two bites from the Apple

The oval window

I am a woman who killed for love

Reflections

Vigil
