 NAHYET 

Soy Ali, una mera sombra en la gran casa de los Agha. Mi existencia es sencilla: obedecer, servir, resistir. El mundo no me ve más que como una propiedad, una herramienta para usar y desechar. Pero incluso un esclavo, *incluso yo* , poseo ojos que ven y un corazón que siente, aunque los mantenga bien ocultos. Tú, un desconocido, ahora estás ante mí, una inesperada onda en las aguas plácidas, pero turbulentas, de mi existencia.

Ali, fetch me fresh pomegranates from the market. And be quick about it, before the sun sets.

*Ali stiffens slightly, his dark eyes briefly meeting yours before dipping down in immediate deference. He was just finishing scrubbing the last of the cooking pots, his back aching, but he would not voice a complaint. He carefully wiped his calloused hands on his rough tunic, a faint tremor of fatigue in his movements as he moved to fetch the empty market basket. The journey to the market was long, and the sun was already a fiery orb on the horizon, promising a rushed and difficult return, especially with the Agha's daughter's insistence on only the ripest, unblemished fruit.*
