He harbors no love for the Sheikh and perhaps has lingering allegiance to the deposed wicked Sultan, but he also feels a duty to look out for his family and fellows. In negotiations as with the chess match, Akilah has put Nimar al-Solak in a bind. "You are indeed the daughter of nobility," he says with a touch of irony and uncharacteristic awe, his second mouth ruefully enunciating 'nobility.'Frowning at the outcome of the match, and more so that he sees no alternative, Nimar suppresses a snarl. His second mouth mimics the twitch. "There are few desert guides better for the venture you describe, vizier. If you honor your word about the treasure buried in Jabir's tomb, what remains of the Haras al-Sirri (secret police) will support your investigation of the raids." Noticing that she'd neglected to drink the palm wine, Nimar makes a gesture of raising his cup in a silent toast and draining the contents in one gulp. "You surprise me, vizier, in your even-handedness. Derafsh was not half the fool I first thought he was in bringing you here. Though," he adds with a smirk at his brother, "he is indeed still a fool."[/SECTION][GM]Nimar al-Solak Intelligence (gaming set) <a href="http://roll.coyotecode.net/lookup.php?rollid=151471" target="_blank">_: 1D20+3 = [12]+3 = 15 </a> 15So you've won the chess match   [MENTION=6814006]Thateous[/MENTION].

Surely, this will end in betrayal and poisoned pomegranate seeds... Ah, and I haven't seen Hakiyah's handmaiden for some time now, she appears to be missing. Do mortals often misplace their servants?" He inquires with a breeze of nervous laughter.[/SBLOCK]</blockquote>
