Single-word
Prompt
Fierce
Sitting
cross legged atop several pillows, within the relative comfort of the sultan’s
tent, we were grateful for the invitation and yet repelled by the very
thought; create a safari business to
show the uninitiated the savages of the desert.
The
sultan sat back on his pillows and sipped his spiced coffee. He grinned toward us, his grin as fierce as the
wind railing against the tent walls. I
did not trust him and yet, but by virtue of sitting across from him in his tent, I
had already entrusted my life to him.

I like the comparison to the wind. Interesting simile.
