Noteworthiness

Purrsia was a wealthy Catfolk courtesan in the 700s. She pioneered a brothel-style business where she offered protection and prestigious clients in exchange for a cut of her employees' earnings. Her pet cat, Pallas, was a pampered fluffy little thing and was also, alongside her ivory fighting fans, part of her brand.

History

Goldday, Thiefmoon, 1312
Subvizier Cassiopeia Stargazer-Greenskin gifted a copy of this set of encyclopedias to Subvizier Victor Dargent, with the hopes of fostering a better relationship with House Dargent. Published that year, Cassiopeia got Victor the encyclopedias before he had the chance to get a set for himself.
Needleday, Sailormoon, 1313
Victor's younger brother, Katib Hugo Dargent "borrowed" the encyclopedias from his brother's room and read them while he was waiting for his pet Bunbun, Connie Furr, to return from the Baharat Menagerie, where she was collecting his altered armour from Martini.
