It might look at a glance like all Shirin's family (with one minor exception) get up to is various kinds of insurgency and anti-government activity, but things are a tad more nuanced. Mostly they'd prefer to be just left alone, but y'know, kings come along and don't seem to care much whether you voted for them or not...
Anyway. As it happens, the general area where they live also has multiple routes used for people trying to get across the desert on the way to a (hopefully) better life elsewhere. But as is sometimes the case, they don't prepare properly for the crossing, or don't have local guides (another side business for the family), or just had their guide ditch them half-way through. If the family happen upon any such groups in apparent need of aid, they'll typically pass the word along to whatever rescue services are available - about the only kind of cooperation with state entities you can expect out of them, really.
So here's Salva, reporting one such group of strays spotted while out on patrol. Honestly, there's far worse people you could encounter out in the open desert...
