 BACK TO jAD


By now our plans in the north for the newspaper were resolved, we had a good reception everywhere we went.
 the North, as much as it is said on the planet, is always welcoming
towards travelers or traders, especially towards us, although few read our newspaper, many still do not know how to read, while others use their dialect to express themselves, but despite this we were successful, now we have so many more friends,
Lady Nani with her partner and their little offspring have remained in our hearts and we have promised ourselves to return to them as soon as possible.
    We left one morning when the fog had cleared a little, and the light north wind would have pushed us out and then headed south, Brjiana is very satisfied with the success of our newspaper, we have sold many copies, and we will soon prepare our next issue to be released on the first of next month (March 1, 2022 barbarian time). Back to
the island together with Brjiana we decided to make many changes to the oasis, build many more houses for the people and finally we would build the infirmary, and public baths, with stone tubs and hot water.
starting the renovation of the port, expanding it, then redoing all the much safer streets and the headquarters of the Gazzetta in the side of the building.
   The works are still going on today, many things have to be completed, we plan to finish everything before the great heat and the arrival of the sandstorms.
  A surprise that made me very happy was the arrival of a ship from the city of Jad, capital of the archipelago of Cos, some warriors announced the arrival of the commander of the city who was none other than Sir Jeriko, we had met in korat I as a child and he guarded and trained Tharlarion and also organized running competitions with them, then lost sight of, I knew that he had retired to his big farm with his partner Betty, but time passes and things change.
  He was happy to see me again Prince d'ell Oasis, he had left me as a young student, now I was here with my people, he arrived at the palace with his entourage and his faithful Kajira Rosa, We talked a lot about the past, he told me that Lady Betty was she left a few years ago and never returned, perhaps she too tired, and he had moved to the great city of Jad as commander.    He told me he was traveling from the island of Landa had brought them the grappa of Cos, and some barrels of Cos wine the best on the planet, he had heard about our newspaper and curious he wanted to know us and know more about it.
  We explained to him that they could have our newsstand in their city, and surely it would also bring them a lot of publicity on the planet, he enthusiastically invited us to Jad to place our newsstand, so we followed him with our ship until we reached the island, I I had already lived in the great city of Jad I had been a magistrate, then with the death of the Ubar and the arrival of a new one, things fell
apart and I left the island, but now the Ubar is always traveling they told me, and Sir Jeriko rules, personally inspecting all kajires that arrive.
    A lot has changed since I left, but you know things change over time.
   We set up our newsstand on the large jetty to access the port, after having said goodbye to the Comandate again, we left for the oasis, many problems to be solved awaited us, not before passing by the Kajira Rosa for the bureaucratic matters and we set off again.
