House de'Mandrake has a history stretching back through the history of Amber itself. Some say that once, the Houses of Mandrake and Feldane were one; as Feldane guards the door of death, after all, so Mandrake guards the door of life. 'Death will wait' is not just a motto, but a firmly held belief. And, as with all devout belief, an entire culture has sprung up from this, both for members of the noble family itself, and their vassals.
