Zehar

This house's lamp works harder than its owner. I drew my blade, and a yawn came out first.

• IsmaThat windowsill. Ninth time today. Next time you won't be sitting there.
  ZeharCaptain, that's the ninth time you've said that too.
• DanilI didn't see a thing. Really, nothing at all.
  ZeharWriting that well with your eyes shut is a problem.

The joke landed fine, but I missed a beat on the water. Why the water left in the bottom of that cup stuck with me, I couldn't say.

• SelmaWhy didn't you mention your wrist? Roll up that sleeve.
  ZeharThe healer rolls up everyone's sleeve but her own.
• Grand Vizier KaisInquiries about water fall under the Ledger Chamber. Bring them to me from now on.
  ZeharAsking the Grand Vizier always comes with a price.

Haggling does this to a face. I didn't get the saffron, just this expression.

• Princess RaniaThat face would fetch a price at the palace.
  ZeharCheaper than your cup, Your Highness.
• SelmaSpend that saffron money on bandages instead.
