Vinata's father and sitting naga monarch, being deposed by Rishi's brothers while the Faction Wars play out.
Princess Vinata's father insisted she participate in the Faction Wars because the naga needed the tourist money and needed the Naga Shipyards staffed and running — a decision that ultimately delivered his daughter to her death in the Temple of Khepri.
When Carl asks how Rishi can be authorized to make treaties when the naga already have a king, Rishi answers that his brothers should have the king properly deposed by now, along with his remaining children, the prime minister, and the entirety of the House of Greens. The old monarchy is being replaced by a restored sultanate in the Naga Uprising.
