Little Aqahba is a mostly walled Unicorn enclave spanning the right, southern bank of the Puahu River. It is what it says on the tin: a recreation of some key features of the original capital of the Tarkhanate in a foreign land. While there is no firm prohibition against non-Unicorn to live here and wide ethnic and religious tolerance is practiced as long as you're not seditious, the dominant populous is still Mekhem-speakers who have emigrated her either voluntarily or as a wider plan of the Khans over the last thirty years.

The dominant features of the district are the Purple Mosque and the Hoof, religious and commercial centres respectively. If you decide to stay here longer, you have to get used to the fact that five times a day, one for each Wind, the district entirely pauses on the vocally beautiful far-reaching calling of the imam to give respect and prayer to the Lost Daughter, facing west, toward the land across the ocean where she had fallen from Heavens.

Little Aqahba has no own port and all commercial vessels go through Los Muelles, as all big business goes through Plaza de Contratacion. Bu there is a small dockyard at the mouth of the Puahu River that accommodates Al-Fawaz, a locally built Mamluk coastal warship. The Unicorn district is connected to the Merenaese one by three wide bridges which are busy around the sundial. They are high enough to let barges coming from the agricultural areas upstream to pass under, but not for any of the sea-going ships to sail inland.
