The Most Revered Mother Falah Raniah, Sultana of Luqasa, is the first woman to guide the faith of Seyrilloh in generations. She is known as Falah the Quiet, for she rarely acts or speaks directly. Instead, she leads by example and talks in parables that may at first seem to wander from the point, but, in the end, reveal a basic truth that allows the listener to attain enlightenment. As a young woman, Raniah served as a representative to the Caliph's court, where she impressed His Enlightened Majesty with her wit and wisdom. He appointed her a Sultan 10 years ago. The Conclave gave its unanimous approval.
Raniah has proved herself to be a wise and capable ruler. Her firm yet open policies have prevented the spread of the Balniqos Heresy to her oasis. Her people are well fed and, on the average, better off than their cousins in the other desert sultanates. The Sultana will frequently don her chador and go out to mix with the people, hearing their needs and interests and using them to guide policy.
Raniah bore twin daughters, Tocka and Ilana, while she was in the court of the Caliph.
