Safiya is a high class courtesan/slave. She’s popular due to her dancing & wit, but she uses this to get info on the slave trade. Safiya & her (half) brother Jesper are the biggest informants to Jamila’s/Nastaran’s cause (to bring down the slave trade in this region).

I’m terrible in depicting age, but that’s something I’ll work on!

Many of the previously drawn Jamilas paintings donated to the country of happiness. I struggled to express the greatness of Jamilas.
