With Sukkana's introduction, Aisha shook her head.  Clearly she didn't recognise her then, how would she have met a Royal Ambassador?<br/><br/>"My name is Aisha, if it please you.  Girl of the Harem of the Regent.  I mean the Empress."  Damn.<br/><br/>As the lord commander arrived Aisha took a step back and turned to him and seeing her chance, held up a hand. To any observer it would look like a greeting, in fact what she had done was cover Sukkana's body with her hand so she could concentrate on the face  She frowned again more convinced then ever that she knew this woman from somewhere then arranged her face into an accomadating smile.<br/><br/>As they walked towards the chamber, the two Harem girls fell easily into step with the ambassador.  While not spies by any stretch of the imagination, the Royal Harem was expected to take any chance they could get to gather information about the castle's guests.<br/><br/>She giggled into her hand at the ambassadors comment and replied "<span class="bbc_size" style="font-size: 8pt;">Big day for her Ma'am.  Hope it hasn't put you in too bad a mood?"</span>
