Oho! I was translating "appeared" as "seemed." In the far reaches of the back of my mind, I was thinking of "rose" "finger" "dawn" but assumed it could not be a reference to the Odyssey because of the sentence structure! Maybe it's time to learn some French!

Thank you for explaining. It's so interesting to hear your process. And thanks also for posting that photo of the wall in Athens. What a great idea altogether, and brilliantly executed.
