There is little Akashic presence within the city and what is there tends to be diplomatic envoys sent to speak with members of the other traditions. However, there are one or two Akashic Brothers who have taken up a permanent residence in the city, in the name of keeping constant communications with their brethren or just to indulge their own curiosity about the Western world. These members are members of the Theosophical covenant, where they attempt to clarify some of the more difficult philosophical points of their native beliefs for the members, as well as taking advantage of the diverse membership to learn more about the other traditions.
