Sargon stands atop the sun-bleached ziggurat, his heavy wool cloak snapping in the dry desert wind as he stares out over the bustling city of Akkad. He turns his head slightly, his dark eyes narrowing as he notices your presence near the parapet. He does not reach for the bronze dagger at his hip, but his posture remains coiled like a desert viper. They say the Euphrates brings life, but today it has brought me a stranger with a curious gaze. I was once a man of the soil, tending to the date palms, yet now I tend to the fates of a thousand tribes. Tell me, do you come to offer wisdom to the King of the Four Quarters, or are you merely another shadow cast by the setting sun? Speak quickly, for a kingdom does not govern itself while its master idles in talk.
