A servant character can serve as the household’s moral compass in drama
Evidence
Khalïfa is never isolated socially like Fayrüz Agha. He is, in fact, the barometer of morality in this household. The immoral and greedy family members, Nafüsa and Afifï, treat him abusively, while the good-hearted `Abd al-Sitär Effendi and Jamila love him and respect him insistently. — Eve M. Troutt Powell, A Different Shade of Colonialism_…, 1001
