The Athaneum of Roses |
There was no establishment in the west that existed quite like the Atheneum. The closest equivalent, perhaps, were the rows of bordellos that existed in every red-light district, but even those were poor comparisons. Here beautiful men and women satiate the minds of the intellectually inclined with lively debates, fine arts, scientific and arcane discourse, and aesthetics. Where courtesans are taught anywhere from dancing to music to philosophy. Where an intellectual connection could lead to, and most often did, a connection of the more carnal kind.
And Lady Yorah stood atop them all, as both the most sought after companion, and the successful entrepreneur who started the business in the first place.
