| This beautiful residence, with its floral motifs facade, extends over two floors. Clostaire Anissatoum lives there and works as a bookbinder. Here everything is calm, serene and silent, the thickness of the walls screening out the noises of the street. | This beautiful residence, with its floral motifs facade, extends over two floors.

| This is the first reason why Clostaire decided to settle here: this talented artist, precise and methodical, only works on exceptional works and for a handful of prestigious clients. This explains why he hasn't considered it necessary to advertise his trade on the facade of his house. | This is the first reason why Clostaire decided to settle here: this talented artist, precise and methodical, only works on exceptional works and for a handful of prestigious clients.

| The second reason is that this residence belonged to a compatriot of Clostaire, the Nizam Elicophene of Antiam, who had it built about fifty years ago in the style of his native country, the desert of the Sunset Marches. The choice of this location for a building of this quality had raised a lot of questions among local residents at the time. | The second reason is that this residence belonged to a compatriot of Clostaire, the Nizam Elicophene of Antiam, who had it built about fifty years ago in the style of his native country, the desert of the Sunset Marches.

| Why did such a dignitary choose to settle at the entrance of a small cul-de-sac of the Hand that crafts, rather than in a palace on the High Terrace? The answer came naturally when Elicophene had taken up residence: every morning, at sunrise, he spread a prayer rug at the foot of the Killhem tree, and once his litanies had flown up to the heavens, he sometimes stayed several hours without saying a word, contemplating the entwined tree trunk. It is even said that when he died, his servants cut a branch from the tree and placed it on the eyes of the deceased before closing the coffin that was about to take him back to his native land. | Why did such a dignitary choose to settle at the entrance of a small cul-de-sac of the Hand that crafts, rather than in a palace on the High Terrace?
