WtV: The Humans of the Allied Sultanates - Organizational Ch
The most recent arrivals in the Sultanates are the humans.
They're strange, unfurred, for the greatest part, unscaled, pretty much average or below average by the sultanates standards - but still, they are tough as nails.
In part this comes from their rich and varied knowledge.
Likewise, they are true omnivores, although they are very picky for such.
There is only a small group of them at the beginning, 3 males - soldiers, two of which are dead by the time the Allied Sultanates rescue them and one is horribly wounded yet still able to act - 10 females and about 30 children of both genders, with four more under way.
And so the Master Diplomat of the town, the barely adolescent - by human standards - Harun ibn Ardach is tasked with his three wifes to both learn about the humans as well as find a place for them in the Sultanates that fits their skills and knowledges.
Meanwhile the healer-mistress, a tigress known both for her grace in dance, poetry and singing as well as her skills in straightening and mending bones, gets tasked to keep alive, and ideally heal, the gruesomely wounded human soldier that survived, so that he might lead a glowbug into the darkness and illuminate the truth behind the humans.

Addendum:
The Speaker, like the tiger's Mediator, is explicitely there to handle and resolve issues inside the subgroups society before they escalate to the level where they would need to be publically addressed by the princess as nominal overall administrator of a town.
Likewise they serve as an advisor to the Princess in regards to their peoples needs, wishes and requests and capabilities.
For the humans, it is at least for the first 10 years after their arrival, and for a while after that, almost always the wife of the officer that takes this position, as the best educated and oldest adult.
Only when their children reach maturity and prooved themselves does this change.

Note:
With the tigers it's often a Patriarch of the strongest ( i.e. most members ) clan who takes the role of the mediator, but same as often it's one of the female healers, who, doubling in their role as a danceress, have a lot of influence in the Sultantes society, or, independant of gender, a very old member of their people, who gained wisdom and honors during his or her lifetime.
