| Summary | "Cleopatra — Volume 07" by Georg Ebers is a historical novel written during the late 19th century. It delves into the intricate and tumultuous life of Cleopatra, the last active ruler of the Ptolemaic Kingdom of Egypt, examining her relationships, political maneuvers, and the challenges she faces in maintaining her power and legacy. The narrative, rich in character development, features characters such as Charmian, Cleopatra's faithful attendant, and Dion, a key figure in Cleopatra's complex web of relationships. The opening of this volume introduces a tense atmosphere surrounding Cleopatra, who struggles with personal and political turmoil. Charmian reflects on Cleopatra's conflicting qualities—her ambition, maternal devotion, and the jealousy that drives her to make questionable decisions. The emotions peak as Cleopatra's rival, Barine, faces grave consequences for her actions. As the narrative unfolds, Charmian assists Barine in a daring escape, showcasing themes of loyalty and defiance amid a backdrop of impending danger. Charmian's internal conflict regarding her allegiance to Cleopatra and her concern for Barine's safety adds depth to the unfolding drama and sets the stage for further intricate developments in the story.
