Why did he seem so interested in fellahin?

His question felt so strange to her ears. Nazli shrugged her shoulders. I don't know if there is one, truly.

I could learn a trade, I suppose. Become a midwife for when our current one is unable to serve, or learn herbs like Miss Tee. I... have not ever thought of rising.

She enjoyed her work immensely and did not look at the long-term; Nazli was still so young that her focus was not yet set beyond her service to the princess.
