Note: The following is a write-up of an establishment in the Garden of Crimson Pleasures. For those who does not know this, the Garden of Crimson Pleasures is the district in the Imperial City that houses prostitution. This district, along with the establishments of Haven and the Eventide Conservatory, is detailed in The Compass of Celestial Directions, Vol. 1: The Blessed Isle, pages 142-143.
The Cordial Crystal Lounge
Lodged between two grand marble buildings housing a prominent bordello and a prestigious massage parlor respectively, is the small and unassuming tea house known as the Cordial Crystal Lounge. Hosting a fine selection of imported teas as well as a pleasant and respectful staff and an atmosphere of privacy, the Cordial Crystal Lounge is popular haunt for those who know of it.
Outside the most esoteric circles, it is well-kept secret that the tea house is just a front for another type of business. While its location in the Garden of Crimson Pleasures does that it would hardly be a scandal for the Cordial Crystal Lounge should it be revealed that its cellars made room for an opium den cum brothel. It likely would make a scandal, though, if it was widely recognized that the Cordial Crystal Lounge provides pleasures and services so exclusive that not even Haven, the Eventide Conservatory, or the Harlotry of Nexus can compete with it.
Unlike the staff of the ground-level tea house, the entire staff accommodating the subterranean den is made up of House Iselsi Dynasts. While most of them are un-Exalted, the owner, Iselsi Tamea, and her brother, Iselsi Yo-Koto, are both Children of Danaa’d. The services that the Iselsi provide their patrons are as varied as their clientele:
Some patrons are relatively modest in their demands such as Senator Peleps Sasayaka who enjoys the simple pleasure of having a human Iselsi act as his footstool while enjoying a pipe of opium. Others, like Dragonlord Sesus Kajak Rakono, are cruder in their fantasies and enjoy the thought of figuratively giving House Iselsi it up the ass by doing it to their scions literally. Among the more aberrant tastes indulged in the rooms under the Cordial Crystal Lounge are those of the vartabed Mnemon Caras Unko, who finds it easier to exercise his right as a monk to masturbate when he is watching Dragon-Blooded siblings of House Iselsi eat each other’s feces.
Whatever the specifics of a patron’s particular vice is, the generals are usually well-reflected in Senator Nellens Haiyuu, who engages in elaborate and humiliating roleplaying sequences with the Iselsi servicing her:
The acting out of roles of domination and subordination is much more important than the erotic fulfillment itself is. For a Dynast, or even the rare patrician who has learned the tea house's secret, it is not the fact that they get to force a prostitute to engage in bestiality or incest that get them off. It is that they get to do these things to rival scions of the Scarlet Dynasty. “It may be,â€
