Abdullah had not come to Venice to demand peace; he had come to plead for it. Without allies and unable to use bribery—a tactic too hazardous given the current political climate where few senators would dare accept an offer that might enrage the influential Venetian noble families entrenched in foreign conflicts and arms trade—he felt isolated.

"He is a Muslim!" Suddenly, a member of the senate rose up, and pointed right towards Abdullah. "We are faithful Christians, spreaders of Christ's words, how can he, a devoted Muslim and an Ottoman, step onto our sacred land?
