'''The Jack of Spades''' is a [[quest]]. The main reward for completing the quest is access to [[Menaphos]], located in the southern part of the [[Kharidian Desert]]. It requires the completion of the two [[Ozan]] "double bill" quests, [[Stolen Hearts]] and [[Diamond in the Rough]], to start.

===The invitation===
 
[[file:Pharoah and Jabari discuss.png|right|200px|The Pharaoh and Ambassador Jabari discuss your trip to Menaphos.|thumb]]
 
At the [[Al Kharid palace]], talk with [[Ali Mirza|Emir Ali Mirza]] who informs you that [[Menaphos]] wants to reopen trade with [[Al Kharid]] and has invited a delegation to Menaphos to negotiate a deal. He sends [[Grand Vizier Hassan]] to go as the representative of Al Kharid together with the player who was specifically invited by [[The Pharaoh]]. The Emir asks the player to not spy for [[Osman]] with which Osman agrees. Osman asks the player to meet them upstairs in the south-east corner on the balcony.
 
 
On the balcony Osman will discuss the city of Menaphos with the player. Osman will also confirm again that the player should not spy for him, but if the player notices something of interest then they should report it to him. Osman is particularly interested in the library and any books covering the line of succession of the pharaohs.
 
 
===Carpet ride===
 
[[file:Carpet Ride to Menaphos.png|left|200px|Flying over the desert.|thumb]]
 
Go upstairs to the top floor of the palace and meet Hassan on the southern side of the roof. Unequip the items in your main- and off-hand slots, dismiss any follower, and fly on the [[Magic carpet (The Jack of Spades)|magic carpet]] with Hassan. Head south in the direction of Menaphos, taking any route you wish. During the ride, Hassan will make comments on any landmarks you fly over. If you would rather go to Menaphos directly, you can speak to Hassan.
 
 
===Entering the Golden City===
 
The player and Hassan are greeted by [[Ambassador Jabari]] who will lead them to [[Grand Vizier Ehsan]], the Menaphos merchant. Both Grand Viziers will negotiate the deal between the cities. The [[Ozan|Jack of Spades]] appears, steals [[Ehsan's tax ledger|a tax ledger]] from Ehsan and escapes. Talk to the guards outside the building, who say the Jack of Spades was last seen heading into the [[Port district]] to the south.
 
 
===Following the Jack===
 
[[file:The Jack of Spades appear!.png|right|200px|thumb|The Jack of Spades appears and robs Wadud.]]
 
Talk to [['Admiral' Wadud (Ports)|Admiral Wadud]] in [[The Golden Scarab Inn]] in the Port district. The Jack of Spades appears again and steals [[Wadud's prized trinket]], then vanishes again. Speak to the guards to the west of the Inn, they say the Jack of Spades was seen heading to the [[Imperial district]].
 
 
Go north out of the Port district, then west up the stairs from the lodestone. Speak to [[Commander Akhomet (Imperial)|Commander Akhomet]] outside the Great Pyramid. The Jack appears again and steals [[Akhomet's ceremonial dagger]], before vanishing again. She advises speaking to [[Batal]] in the [[Worker district]].
 
 
Head back to the lodestone, then north and west to reach the open bonfire in the [[Worker district]] and speak to [[Batal]]. The Jack of Spades appears once more and steals [[Batal's coin purse]], then disappears again. Batal suggests searching for an [[Shifting Tombs|underground hideout]] below the city.

===Shifty===
 
[[file:An Old Friend of Yours.png|left|200px|The Jack is revealed to be Ozan.|thumb]]
 
Enter the [[Shifting Tombs]] entrance nearby and speak to the Jack of Spades, who turns out to be none other than [[Ozan]]. He has been looking for the [[Kharid-ib]] and traced it to Menaphos. He says people have been searching underground and [[Amascut]] is behind it. He gives the stolen items which can be used to gain reputation with the four different districts. Return the four stolen items, which grant enough reputation to unlock the Menaphos [[Grand Exchange]]. You can take advantage of the Shifting Tombs area to quickly move between districts. After returning all the items, head back near the Merchant district and speak to Hassan to complete the quest.
 
 
Congratulations, quest complete!
