Few outsiders visit the Tusmite backcountry, for the only wealth there is in raw materials, and the natives are inhospitable. Al'Akbar is worshiped in the north, so lawlessness is not tolerated. Only those wishing to visit the Grand Mufti of the Yatil Moutains travel there. The current Pasha has not made such a pilgrimage, however, which is a definite break with tradition. The northern lords grumble at his reticence in accepting the Caliph of Ekbirs's spiritual authority. This could lead to trouble, especially since the Pasha has made overtures to the Sulttan of Zeif, a competing power.
