The Dahab

"Real power can only be gained through guile and finance."

- The Silver Tongue

The Merchant Guilds of Medinaat al Salaam have the final word in all things monetary within her walls. They barter and trade lives with callous disregard, drawing wealth from every transaction within the city. But within their power-mongering circles there lies another, deeper threat - one held in silent conspiracy for almost a thousand years and protected by an imprenetrable shield of secrecy since the Guilds' arrival. Seeking an ancient, enemy whose goal is nothing less than complete annihilation of all that Shilah and the Moon have created, the Houses of Dahab have infiltrated this, the most influential group of the sands.
