Quick notes
- Understand the Prince’s mistake. The Prince’s wish to prove himself leads him to use the Dagger at the Hourglass.
- Treat Farah as a partner. Farah has her own reason to oppose the Vizier and her own access through narrow passages.
- Recognize the artifacts’ roles. The Dagger, Farah’s medallion and the Vizier’s staff distinguish their holders from the transformed palace inhabitants.
- Keep the opening rulers separate. Sharaman is the Prince’s father; the Sultan rules the palace where much of the adventure unfolds.
