H o l a k uʼ s R e t u r n 29 Porter: My Lord! My Lord! The fort has fallen! The music stops and once again the porter shouts Porter: The fort has fallen and Rukn Al Deen Khorshah and his followers are coming with the envoys. Holaku: with a sigh of pleasure Splendid! Splendid! For a while Holaku dances with his followers and with disgrace enters Rukn Al Deen Khorshah in his Islamic dress. Holaku welcomes him and makes him sit beside him. Holaku: Come on; bring Mongol lass for Rukn Al Deen Khorshah. Now we want you to co-operate with us to stop the bloodshed. Rukn Al Deen: Please. Holaku: I would like you to send your delegates to instruct your troops in all the fortified forts to give up. Rukn Al Deen: to his ministers, Come on. Let everyone of you, accompanied by a squad from Holaku’s army, go there and ask submission in my name.
