Gor, the Chief of Porters and security is shown here on the right with Kabo, Tando’s chief Cameleer on the left. Gor assists Tando in deflecting the threat posed by the Amban of Charkhalik, while Kabo, a very minor character, has only brief mention in the novel. The images depict typical dress of the time.
