The postal clerk of Eleusis, Khalys, Lady of Doves, is a kindly old woman who hasn't had a day's rest since Eleusis was founded.

She tends to her doves like a mother would her children. Doves work very hard and have been known to carry item-filled letters many times their weight, a practice Khalys abhors. She perpetually hoped that people would one day find a means of sending letters that was less strenuous on her beloved creatures. Kestrels were instead trained to deliver letters.
