Introducing... Devi Yasmina

Yasmina is introduced to us as she tends to her ailing brother. The first description of her however comes a little later when she goes to see the governor of Peshkharim, Chunder Saun.
It was a woman who had entered unannounced, a woman whose gossamer robes did not conceal the rich garments beneath them any more than they concealed the suppleness and beauty of her tall, slender figure. A filmy veil fell below her breasts, supported by a flowing head-dress bound about a triple gold braid and adorned with a golden crescent. Her dark eyes regarded the astonished governor over the veil, and then with an imperious gesture of her white hand, she uncovered her face.
