Some months later, his robbers attacked the [[Warehouses]], and [[Hind]], whose house was part of the complex, asked Basim to escort her to Nimlot's Estate, fearing for her life. Nimlot met with Hind and welcomed her to his home, allowing her to stay there for the mean time. He then spoke to Basim, recognizing him as his father's killer though not being recognized in return. Basim explained he hadn't come to Al-Ula seeking bloodshed, but in search of his own father, Ishaq ibn Khalid, to which Nimlot pointed him at the [[AlUla Market]] as a place to gather further information.<ref name= "The Ones Who Remain"/>

When Basim arrived, Nimlot confronted him about the murder at the Caravanserai, revealing himself as the son of the man Basim called Al-Ghul. Nimlot then attempted to kill Ishaq, though was stopped by Basim before he could reach the older man. The Hidden One then exfiltrated himself and his father from the stronghold, but not without also taking [[Nimlot's Sword]] with him.<ref name= "In the Vulture's Nest"/>
