A ruby…
Ace thought of going to Ahmet's shop since he knew every informations of every single person in YEMET especially of strangers coming into Yemet.
"My lord you woke up early" Baltar wondered.
"I'm always early" he retorted.
"Have you had a nightmare today also?" Baltar asked while arranging the bed.
"No, I couldn't find sleep" Ace said vaguely.
Baltar paused what he was doing and looked at Ace.
"Huh? Why?" He questioned.
Ace stood silent for a moment. He was thinking if it was time for him to revealed his secret to someone .
"I saw…" he hasn't finish his words, he paused as if he was hesitant.
"You saw what?" Baltar raised his eyebrow.
"Nothing, nothing. I'm going to the dunes, if someone ask me tell them you don't know" he said it while getting out of his room.
"Heh!! Wait!" But Ace was already gone.

Dunes
Ace entered in the shop, they were some women buying some jewelries.
"Ladies, I have also this for you. Look at the rareness of this stone here in Yemet, the red glow of this stone will fit perfectly with your skin" he said with charming voice and smile.
The eyes of the women were glowing, they were amazed by the jewelry that had the stone.
"It's call a ruby" Ahmet smirked.
At the pronunciation of that name Ace's heart skipped.
"How much is it Ahmet?" One asked.
"It will be very expensive since of his rareness in this kingdom" he said as he closed the box that had the jewelry.
"We want to know!" They urged him.
"35M kurent"
"That's expensive Ahmet"
"I told you ladies" he said.
"I want it" one said
Ahmet smirked and gave the box the woman, the other went out from his shop displeased.
Ahmet was arranging some jewelry when Ace finally approached him.
"Good morning Ahmet" he greeted.
Ahmet looked up and saw him.
"Hi my lord, I hope that you're find since the last day" he smiled.
"Much better thank you" Ace smiled.
"Great! So what brings you here ? Do you want a jewelry for the princess?" He asked.
"No but instead informations about someone" Ace said.
"You know my lord many people come in and out in my shop" he said
Ace removed a small bag and placed it on his table.
"You think it's with money that I will speak? I'm not corrupted" Ahmet narrowed his face for a moment gazing at Ace but suddenly his face lit up.
"No it's false! Come and see daddy my little kurent" he dragged the small bag toward him.
"I want to know if you know about a stranger having red short hairs and green eyes" Ace said.
"Well your description is vague. It is true that us Yemetians we are either black or tanned with gray, blue and golden eyes but for strangers many of them could have red hairs with green eyes" Ahmet said.
"But not many stranger will dare come to YEMET like this" Ace said.
"Not false…" Ahmet paused as if something came into his head.
"Now that I think. One yemetian and a stranger with the same description came here to search for jewelries and dresses of belly dancer"
"I asked them if they were dancers they said no and told me that it was a surprise for the husband of the yemetian girl" he added.
"It's her" Ace thought.
"The yemetian girl, she's from where?" Ace asked.
"She had blue eyes , so she's from Barabass" Ahmet said.
Two clients entered in the shop. Ahmet indicate with his hand to Ace to approached with his face near him.
"From what I know also, she's a spy. She came for a particular mission but what mission I don't know" he murmured.
Ace moved back .
"Thank you"
"You're welcome my lord. It's always a pleasure helping you" he smiled.
Ace turned, opened the door and left.
"Yes sirs, what do you need? Jewelries for you wife, mistress?"
.
.
.
On the camel, he thought of everything, so many questions was in his head.
"If it is really her, why will she want the dead of the nkumkuma?" Ace thought.
"More important how has she got into YEMET? Irischester and YEMET are far from each other"
"Amber-ruby is it really you? How did you survive?" .

During this time, Shaka was in the mariage of one of the most important personality of YEMET . He yawned so hard, he was so bored. He didn't like this kind of ceremony but he was forced to come, Khir ordered him to come because Shaka never participate in any thing that concern the politics of the kingdom and that displeased Khir. Shaka was just focused in his research and his medecin.
He yawned for the 300times when someone spoke to him.
"You look very bored" a female voice said.
He turned at the voice. He was stunned for a moment after seeing the person that just spoke to him, he was even mesmerized by the beauty of the young woman.
"It's so obvious?" He asked scratching the back of his head looking embarrassed.
"Yes actually" she smiled.
"Well , I don't just like this type of ceremony"
"Me too, I'm forced to be here. It's my aunt's mariage , she's getting married to one of the most important personality of this kingdom" the girl said.
"It's even rare that stranger get married to yemetian. I wondered where they met until getting married" Shaka wondered.
"Me too, my aunt is so mean" both Shaka and the girl started to laugh.
Shaka was mesmerized by the beauty of the girl. Her red hairs were as if there were glowing just as the red stone called ruby and her green eyes were just mesmerizing just as her smile.
"I like the color of your hairs, they look like a ruby"
The young woman blushed .
"Thank you. It's the first time they said it to me" she said shyly.
"Oh I didn't present myself. I'm Shaka boroh"
"I know, my prince"
He smiled.
"Who could ignored you? My step uncle was almost licking your toes" she said sarcastically.
Shaka chuckled.
"I'm Sky, Sky Grayson"
"I am delighted to meet you" he kissed her phalanges.
