History
During her first decade in the Royal Harim, Zaynal's rivals were known to disappear for days at a time. Upon their return, these shaken rivals always deferred to Zaynal with respect.
Only two people knew Zaynal's true identity—the Grand Vizier and Khalil's maternal aunt, Sitt Rahmah. Zaynal was in fact a holy slayer of the Soft Whisper, sworn to protect the Grand Caliph. Zaynal had 50 slaves at the Royal Harim, all of whom were female holy slayers as well.
