Before meeting Aladdin, Jafar thirsted upon the throne of Agrabah. The five long years spent in the Shirabad prison had turned him greeder and more determined to get his desired spot as the ruler of the city. In the mist of his search for the lamp of wishes, in stomps a small, fierce gypsy girl named Sabina that, despite being poor, makes the palace's life richer. The vizier's cold defences are quickly melted by her and he began contemplating the posibility of being happy. However, everybody's true colours are revealed when another street rat, a similar version of what Jafar once was, catches the princess's eye and opens up the possiblity for the Vizier of having both his kingdom and a queen to rule it with. A very Jafar-centric fic inspired after watching 2019 live action movie of Aladdin. Comparisons apart, i thought it was a great movie and it brought back my love for Disney. I'll try to tag along a sheet with pictures of all the characters. Picture in your mind the cast from the 2019 live action. The main character Sabina and a bunch of others are Romani (gypsies), from differents parts of Eastern Europe. I would throw in some Roma culture references but I am not from that culture, so anything that comes across as wrong or disrecpectful, it was either left intentional for the characters(there will be some slurs, minimal) or it was an honest mistake of mine. Please feel free to point it out in the comments. I would not be referring to any specific countries or places, except fromt the fictional ones. For reference purposes I situated Agrabah in the country of Jordan in my mind (where the dessert scenes were filmed, with a sea shore). I will be writing about orientalism and Arabian mythology, fields which I am no expert on, so if i make any mistakes, please feel free to correct me in the comments. Also, English is my second language, I apologise in advance for any grammar mistakes.

The guards grabbed me, forcing me to enter the room I didn't even want to be in. I didn't want to be here. I didn't want to be captured. And most of all I didn't want to see this mendacious pharaoh. I hated this man! Absolutely hated him. His eyes filled with intense hate as he stared at me. He looked at me with a bored expression on his face. "I thought I told you to bring me the rebel leader, not some vacuous little girl." Anger started boiling inside me. The guards were about to respond but I interrupted them. "Why Pharaoh! What makes you believe I am not the rebel leader?" He looked at me annoyingly."Well for one thing you're a girl" I was completely enraged! "How sexist! You think that just because I'm not a man I can't be a leader! People like you disgust me! It sickens me that I even looked up to you as a child! I idolized you! Followed you everywhere! Thought-" I quickly covered my mouth realizing I had said to much. This isn't how I imagined the situation when I finally saw him again. I couldn't control my anger around him. The pharaoh's board expression turned into a more interested one. "You talk as if we have met before but I have absolutely no clue who you are! By all means I'm interested.... What are you called?" This was really bad! If I told him my name he would kill all of my comrades too. I had to lie... For their sake. "Neith..." The Pharaoh's eyes quickly snapped to me. "Let me rephrase my previous question... Tell me your FULL name and don't you dare give a fake one either or I will slaughter every single member of the rebel army... Even family members who weren't even involved will be killed." It was over! I couldn't let him kill all of those people. I guess my time was up now. He cornered me in to a wall. I was stuck with no other way out. "Safiya...Safiya Zahra." The Pharaoh's smile instantly turned into a frown. "That's impossible!" Well I think its safe to say he remembers me. "I was the one who killed you."
