Dantès remains buried in silence—while his betrayers move on.
As Napoleon falls, Louis XVIII returns, and the world reshuffles, Edmond Dantès stays exactly where he was left: forgotten in the Château d’If. Around him, the conspirators disperse like ghosts fleeing daylight. Villefort marries into power. Danglars escapes to Spain. Fernand joins the army—but not before contemplating a murder-suicide. Dumas traces the path of men trying to outpace their guilt… and mostly succeeding.
Topics Covered:
•The fates of Villefort, Danglars, and Fernand after the Hundred Days
•Dantès’ continued imprisonment in total obscurity
•The psychology of self-deception and delayed consequences
