News of the embassy from the Greeks, at first a subject of idle gossip throughout the souks and bazaars of Bizercca, curdled swiftly, first into sullen resentment at the honours accorded the Byzantine churchman leading the delegation, then into violent protest after Imam Chellai Ben Chellai, of the dominant Kechooup Mosque, devoted the bulk of his Friday sermon to vehement denunciation of the rumours of the commutation of the death sentence of the Morean buccaneer Spyridon Dukas.The agitated crowd spilled into the market district and by misadventure encountered revellers from the Armenian millet spilling out of a wedding celebration into the streets near the bazaar. Insults and posturing swiftly escalated to violence throughout the merchant district, and the janissary orta of the Dey itself was required to restore order.

What fate awaits Captain Dukas the valiant defier of the Dey and Morea?
What awaits all traitors in the Roman tradition..he let the shine of gold blind him to his duty..thus it will be the last thing he sees.......
This tartane paid a call to Monte-cristo, to exchange looted goods for local delicacies. Looks like the corsairs of Bizercca are facing strong competition.
