Lord Holanthrus was an Adviser to The Baron during the Metal Age. His library is said to be selective but one of the best in the City.[1]
At one point, he lost his old librarian and was in need of a new one. Giles, Head Librarian to Lord Gervasius, heard of this and wished to leave Gervasius' employment to work there, with his love Lorna (T2), the wife of Assistant Librarian Ashton.
When Ashton learnt of this, he murdered both Lorna and Giles and took the job for himself, claiming to Lord Gervasius that the two had run away together.[2]
