In Velvet Shade there dwell beautiful cats known as the Seven Beauties of Pearlglow Lake. In the side pavilion to the west of Nimbus Tower, the white cat Li Jiaojiao once played chess with Qin Ruolan, master of Nimbus Tower, and became famed for the strategy of Deer Luring. Some say it is but coincidence, for it is impossible that a cat should play chess. Yet others claim Jiaojiao to be of extraordinary wit, a genius among chess masters. Whether Jiaojiao is truly a cat or a yaoguai, the truth remains unknown.
