Zahra Layla Maymunah Albagal

Madame Zahra Layla Maymunah Albagal (usually Sara Albagal) is official assistant to Professor Amadeus Bibbledore at ZauberAlbia's Cyber-Station adoption center, although unofficially she does a great deal more to keep the center running. Although childless (and assumably unmarried), she acts as foster-mother to a host of norn-children waiting for adoption. She is a trained educator, running classes for the older norns in her care.

Albagal has a murky and romantic past - rumours abound of her:

• giving up a life of luxury in an Egyptian Sheik's palace in favour of the poor norn who she loved
• turning down an offer to become a temple dancer in Norindien
• causing a young actor to commit suicide in an Albian waterfall after she broke his heart
