Aailayah Abdirahman- Merchant Lord - (aailayah means the one who is off to success, going up ascending)
After the recent death of her husband, his Trading Empire has befallen her.
She has her eye on the iron-rich moutains of Har'Akir, and she plans raise a private army, and with the help of the nomads, journey north through the deserts and the Valley of Death to Har'Akir.
Not neccesarily desiring to secure business by force, but keeping the option in reserve.
