Tur'Ajhad
There are many things still unknown about Amiir, but most of them, are unknown even to Amiir himself.
In fact, many of the things he knows about himself, are incorrect. And there is only one person left, alive, holding such information.
Sheerashaad (shiirajhàd), is an old woman of the deserts belonging to a seventh clan, rather unique and different from any other, despite still sharing some common traditions with the rest. The people from said clan, are the only ones to know all the truth about the origins and history of the people of the deserts, the mysteries snd legends of the deserts and much more.
But this story is not about any of that.
The Tur'Ajhad clan, once great and stable, went through a decline, begun exactly 33 years ago and that led, just lately, to it's entire extermination on the hand of other clans of the deserts.
They were the only other can to venture into the Black Sands Desert even though they used to go much deeper and to places long forgotten by the Kruhd'Ajir.
Sheerashaad, remained totally alone, had the luck to not be captured by other clans like it was for the other women of her clan, mainly due to the little rule they have about the Aklahí, that despite being a woman, is, reserved a different treatment, even by enemy clans.
Alone, there was not much she could do. Neither she could rescue the other women from the other clans nor she could survive for long ,alone in the desert.
Plus, she could not just die with what she knew, she had to make sure to reveal it before dying.
Very determined and stronger than she may seem, she set a trap to capture a man of the Kruhd'Ajir in order to get one essential information. Being it no secret, the man revealed it to her without any opposition and she just let him go.
What did she want to know? Where Amiir, son of their chief, can be found.
The answer: "White nen have taken him away 16 years, ago." As reported by one of tgeir scouts who witnessed the scene. It literally was like witnessing an aliens abduction to their eyes, but Sheeradhaad did not get so shocked.
Only problem to her was how to even reach the land of the "white men" to start her search for Amiir. She obviously can't teleport to a place totally mysterious and unknown.
So, despite full of doubts, out of desperation she decided the only thing she could do was to enter the Southern Realm and beg for someone's help there.
She is quite aware of the reputation people of the deserts have in the, South and certainly can't blame them.
She expects lots of hostility and to possibly even to be killed, but she can not just give up.
The Tur'Ajhad has never raided the Southern villages, it is quite unknown where they have managed to get their supplies to survive throughout the centuries, but of course, nobody can know. How could they, it is not that there is any sort of document speaking about the clans in details and look wise, they are all pretty much the same, also for what concerns clothing and style.
After a long and wearying path that led her to the Southern borderds, Sheerashaad, alone, walked through the Savannah (she came from the Black Sands Desert) and three days after, she reached the city of Tarir, just because it was the first she came across.
Needless to say, her arrival immediately causes a bit of mess, fearing it could be a sign of an imminent attack to the city.
Even though it has never happened in whole history that a woman of the desert was seen. They are always left behind in safety when the men raid the South.
Like in the style of her people, she is entirely covered by her clothes, face included, only showing the eyes, even though the feminine clothes are more decorated and nice looking compared to the 100% simple manly versions.
She carries some weapons but she couldn't do otherwise, she still had to survive some way.
Seeing people starting to panic, she simply kneels in the middle of the road, with her head bowed.
She can't speak their language, the only way to communicate with her can be mental talking.

To cut it short, yes, Sao translate everything they say to each other, which resumes in:
When the Kruhd took away your mother from our clan, she was already pregnant of our chief, your real father. It was of barely a few days, only her, me and your father knew the truth, the Kruhd could never guess that. That is why their chief never doubted you were his. You might have been born among them, raised as one of them, but you are a Tur'Ajhad. So yes, I am your Aklahì and biological grandmother, deal with it.
Amiir. He is totally shocked, to the point he is not even bothering to hide it. She basically told him that everything he knew about himself was false. It will surely take him some time to accept the whole thing, he will also demand a DNA test for he still suspect it might be some sort of set up organized by Yves and his friends.
Sao. •Moral of the story, if your father kidnapped your mother, always make a DNA test to check if she was pregnant before he took her.•
