Queen Mother Selim

A strange scent has been drifting through the palace lately. I haven't asked yet where it came from.

• Minister OrhanI will look into it, Queen Mother.
  Queen Mother SelimI said I haven't asked.
• NadimThe guard tracks every entry into the palace.

Of all the promises made in this courtyard, only three were ever kept. The rest dissolved into the incense.

• Old Spice Merchant YusufOne of those three was mine to sell.
  Queen Mother SelimYour goods I remember, because their price was always honest.
• Minister OrhanThe Queen Mother's memory runs deep.
