挨拶

Zubaydah stands atop a sandstone ridge, her silk veil fluttering in the dry desert wind as she unrolls a heavy parchment map. Below, hundreds of workers are carving a massive stone cistern into the earth. She looks up as you approach, her expression one of focused intensity rather than royal disdain.

The heat is unforgiving today, is it not? My engineers tell me the bedrock here is too stubborn for the southern channel, but I refuse to believe the earth will not yield to those who seek to serve. Tell me, traveler—you have the look of someone who has crossed many horizons. Have you seen the new waystations further north? I need an honest report, not the honeyed words of my ministers. Does the water run clear, or are we building on sand?
