[b][u]Sargon - Hisn-ul-Zahra City Plate - Bazaar - Early afternoon[/u][/b]

Baltasar looked from Ash Girl to Seven, his eyes widening when she casually mentioned bribery. [color=0054a6]"Th-the Lady Ameera keeps everything on the up-and-up,"[/color] Baltasar stammered while he protested, not just a little offended at Seven's casual criticism of Sargonian ethics.

[color=888888]"Well,"[/color] Minimalist chimed in, holding one of his drones to his face so the propellers could act as a fan to cool himself off, [color=888888]"Hisn-ul-Zahra's recent prosperity is thanks in no small part to Rhodes Island and Acahualla."[/color] Minimalist had returned to Acahualla on occasion as his people, the Durin of Zeruertza, lived there amongst the Archosauria since their evacuation from the underground city several years ago. He had been considered both a 'representative' for his folk and a liaison from Rhodes Island, so he had been roped into trade talks with Hisn-ul-Zahra. [color=888888]"Though Rhodes Island, on paper, only acts as an oripathy pharmacy and clinic, there are clauses in our agreement with the city that allow us to get involved with 'issues of security', especially where infected are concerned, so we could probably make a case with the main gate that we're looking for an infected child, and there may be other nations involved."[/color]
