Awusah the Mayor is the leader of Nardah, a small settlement in the south-eastern Kharidian Desert. Prior to the completion of Spirits of the Elid, Nardah is beset by a curse that caused the town's water supply to dry up, making his job considerably more difficult. Although he has been mayor for a while, he has not yet learnt how to properly deal with the bureaucracy in the capital Menaphos, but this has not affected his popularity.[1] He has three armed guards, Poltenip, Radat, and Tarik, outside his room in the town hall.
When the town's water supply mysteriously disappears, Awusah enlists the player's help. The player soon finds that the curse was caused by the town's refusal to worship Elidinis, the desert goddess of fertility and the River Elid. When the quest is complete, the town returns to normal, although Awusah had been forced to sacrifice the soles of his shoes to a peculiar genie.
Following the lifting of Sophanem's quarantine during Contact!, Sophanem and Nardah agree to begin trading.[2]

^RuneScape website - Game Guide - Area Guides - Cities and Towns - Nardah. "Awusah has ruled Nardah for quite some time, but he still hasn't figured out how to get the most out of the bureaucrats of Menaphos. He does his best, though, and no one seems to mind that he still has not figured out how to solve the water problem."
^High Priest (Sophanem) in Contact!. Old School RuneScape. "We're doing a bit. Having Nardah and Pollnivneach nearby helps and we're also getting a lot of trade from adventurers these days."
