Followup Text[]
Centuries ago, a djinni named Fazeer Shah and a djinni named Ezrek Khan quarreled over some trivial matter, and ultimately went to war. They caused considerable damage to the cities, and devastated the land, until the Zeraphi sultan had had enough. He banished them both: one to the desert, and one to ... another place. A shadow realm, between this world and the endless void where the Netherim dwell. If you can reach Fazeer Shah, you might be able to convince him to help us.

Locate the djinni Fazeer Shah in the Salt Barrens.
The story so far...
Curse that riddle-tongued Sphinx! The Guardian of Mana had been in the Forsaken Vaults, but the Ezrohir took her away before you even arrived! Now they are keeping her under guard at Riftkeep, their fortress in the Salt Barrens, until they are ready to launch their attack on Zeryphesh.
Things are getting desperate, but the Guardian of Air has suggested a way that Mana might still be saved. The magical bonds placed upon the Guardian of Mana are beyond the abilities of the Guardians to remove, but, out in the Salt Barrens, there abides a powerful djinni named Fazeer Shah. This djinni can easily undo the Artificer's work, but you have to find him first ... and then convince him to help.

Greetings, o insignificant one.
Ah, yes ... I know of this Artificer. He came to me, seeking the secret of binding a Guardian ... but I refused his entreaties. Instead, he turned to my ancient foe, the despicable Ezrek Khan, who was all too eager to each him such abominable rituals.
Of course, whatever Ezrek Khan has done, I can undo.
