-beghum asked if he was interested in seeing naik shah, he showed curiosity , she pulled out her gold chain from around her wine glass neck , opening the locket of gold she covered it from one side with her hand and opened the other side that held a tiny round mirror, , she showed it to shehzi , who looked at his own reflection remarking it was him, she then turned the pendant on its other side carefully opening another latch to uncover a picture , looking at it shehzi was dumfounded, again it was him but it was not his picture, naik shah was his reflection, identical image that had made the beghum fall down unconscious the first time they had met, something that was puzzling him all this time , it was now solved
