The Marked Coins was a virtual representation of one of Basim Ibn Ishaq's genetic memories.[1]

Description[]

Basim was tasked with delivering marked coins to the Trade Delegate.

Contract[]

The Marked Coins

To the Hidden Ones:

As you know, we merchants have been suffering attacks by local bandits. They strike with such impunity that I suspect there is a traitor providing inside knowledge. To secure proof of this, I have arranged for the Hidden Ones to provide me with a sum of marked coins. I will use these coins to track down the deceiver.

The coins arrive today. You will meet your colleague in the vicinity of the plaza south of the Great Mosque, where he will hand over the coins. You will then deliver them to me with the UTMOST URGENCY. You can find me in the Administrative Quarter close to the small mosque near the Damascus Gate.

–The Trade Delegate

Dialogue[]

ACMir The Marked Coins 1

Basim met with a fellow Hidden One

Basim accepted the contract and later met with a fellow Hidden One atop a rooftop, south of the Great Mosque.

  • Basim: A curious choice for a meeting place. Do you have the marked coins?
  • Hidden One: They are waiting for you at Damascus Gate.
  • Basim: What! Is this some kind of trick?
  • Hidden One: No trick. A race! I believe I am fast enough to outrun your reputation. See you at the gate!

The Hidden One ran first while Basim made haste to beat him to the coins.

  • Basim: I should retrieve the coins at Damascus Gate before someone else does.

  • Basim: A good effort, but no matter how loud the wind howls, it will never move the mountain.
  • Hidden One: Today you were lucky. Tomorrow, perhaps not?

  • Basim: Today you have enjoyed a fine victory. But do not let it swell your head.

  • Basim retrieved the coins from a package.

    ACMir The Marked Coins 2

    Basim meeting the Trade Delegate

    • Basim: I have the coins. Now to make haste and deliver them.

    Basim made his way into the Round City and found the Trade Delegate waiting for him.

    • The Trade Delegate: I appreciate the service, but you are late. Please be a little quicker next time.

    Basim gave him the coins and completed his contract.

    Outcome[]

    Basim retrieved the coins from the Damascus Gate and delivered them to the delegate.
