The harbormaster of Halwa — a significant figure in a port city living off trade, piracy, and smuggling. Name not yet known.
What We Know
- Flagged in Haroun’s briefing as a significant local power alongside the clans and the merchants. (S4)
- Recently took three new apprentices — and is “known to have gone through many apprentices.” (S4, via Achmed)
Speculation
“Goes through many apprentices” is doing a lot of quiet work in that sentence. Do they quit, disappear, or graduate into something? In a smuggling port, the harbormaster’s apprentices would make an excellent intelligence network — or a supply of deniable labor.
