I'm with Intaki - bankroll does not good leadership make. They may have the coin, but they don't seem like very good leaders. In fact, they seem pretty selfish, looking for power for power's sake, while the Sultana genuinely wants to help.
Each man longs to pursue his dream. Each man is tortured by this dream, but the dream gives meaning to his life. Even if the dream ruins his life, man cannot allow himself to leave it behind. In this world, is man ever able to possess anything more solid, than a dream?
