'''Iska'al of Fantor''' was a [[Cabal]] tea merchant in the Cabal empire who acted as a former confidante of [[Emperor Calus]], the latter whom would share information that he felt he could trust Iska'al with. He was later assassinated by [[Rull|Rull, Gun of Kaga Clipse]] after a decision by the exiled emperor to dispose of the merchant for failing as a supporter. | |||
==Biography== | |||
In the first days of Calus's initial purge of the [[Praetorate]], Iska'al was merely a poverty-stricken tea merchant when the newly coronated [[Cabal Emperor]] had moved the empire's capital to the homeworld of [[Torobatl]] to be near its people. In the first days of office, Calus recurrently visited his cart after parading himself in public. Iska'al - whom Calus believed to be trustworthy at that time - would be privy to the Emperor's private secrets and affairs; including his own personal troubles and deepest concerns.<ref name="Cabal Booklet">'''[[Cabal Booklet]]''', "[[Cabal_Booklet#The_Confidante:_Iska.27al_of_Fantor|The Confidante: Iska'al of Fantor]]"</ref> | |||
After the events of the Midnight Coup, however, Iska'al became wealthy as his teas had found popularity among a clique of [[Red Legion]] soldiers, who would tease him by calling him the "Imperial Informant" as though he would send word to Calus. The former emperor himself would develop a personal vendetta against the merchant due to his perceived inaction, which he deemed to be a form of treason. Despite this, he proscribed Isa'kal should be killed by an overdose of opiates - so that he could die in ecstasy.<ref name="Cabal Booklet"/> | |||
During a military celebration held on Torobatl, one of Calus's [[Shadows of Calus|Shadow]] assassins, [[Rull]], had snuck into his estate. Iska'al attempted to crawl away as his guards were killed in front of him. In the end, Iska'al was drowned to death after Rull force-fed him a goblet of Calus's own wine.<ref>'''Bungie (2017/9/8)''', ''[[Destiny 2]] - Item Description: [[Rull Suit#Greaves of Rull|Greaves of Rull]]''</ref> | |||
