Actually, if I'm going to be likened to a plant, I'm a Mandrake. In Jacqueline Carey's Kushiel's Legacy saga, the Court of Night-Blooming Flowers, also known as the Night Court, refers to the thirteen Houses of Mont Nuit in the City of Elua, home to the Servants of Naamah, the most elite cadre of religious prostitutes in Terre d'Ange. Mandrake The House canon is sadism and dominance; the motto is "Yield all." Mandrake is one of two houses to use a signale, in this case for the patron's benefit. Mandrake House maintains an altar to Kushiel, who was the angel responsible for punishing the guilty before he left the service of the One God to follow Blessed Elua. Kushiel is pictured with a rod and flail.
