Master Jilani is already seventy-five years old this year. At this age, if you combine it with his prowess, among orthodox wizards, he would still be in his prime. Not talking about having several witches as bedmates, one would be embarrassed to go out and meet people.
However, Jilani appears as if he already has one foot in the grave, his face exposed from underneath the black robe, the skin on his hands is decayed like old tree bark.
Casters of the Fire Worship are different from the witches in Europe, their inheritance of extraordinary power is mostly unorganized, often stemming from the legacy left by predecessors. The power might be considerable, but using it once comes with a heavy price.
In fact, it is not that Sassan doesn't have orthodox casters in service, but no one is willing to get involved in this caliber of warfare.
The longer one lives, the more they cherish their own life.
