Regular

You try to tell him not to go around screaming his hatred for the Sultan. He looks at you in shock, his face turning red as he stammers, finally swearing he has never said anything of the sort publicly. You immediately realize that it was likely a word of jest among drunken friends, that was later betrayed...

You are left speechless and can only warn him not to speak of such blasphemy to anyone again. Murtaz opens his mouth, but in the end just nods silently. Only when he escorts you out does he finally say, "You know, I really heard voices from the void. I will succeed, just wait and see. I curse the Sultan. He will pay for all this...!"

Twisted, dark currents of madness flicker in the gloomy depths of his eyes.

Conditions:

Result:

You try to reason with him, to warn him against his folly. His face burns red with anger. "You understand nothing!" he shouts before throwing you out. Through the door, you hear him sobbing, whispering frantic prayers. This madness is all he has left, his only hope.

Conditions:

Result:

Extra

The Vizier listened to your report impassively, appearing unsatisfied. Things had gotten to this point, and he couldn't find a pretense to target that poor man any further – but wait, why? Murtaz posed no real threat to him... You left the Vizier’s mansion lost in thought, unable to understand what it all meant.
