Patroclus felt very chuffed with himself, when Professor Bishop mentioned him in her explaination.

However Patroclus was less chuffed when a young Lioness arrived late, yes it was due to family issues, but still he made a mental note to chat to Professor Donovan about it later. Returning to the lesson, Patroclus raised his hand, "Professor the power of the Christian church was seen to affect even the Major Arcana deck, for certain cards were renamed for Chrisitian bases societies, for example what was usually called the 'Death' card was sometimes swapped to be the 'Grim Reaper' and like-wise with 'The Hierophant' which changed to the 'The Pope'"

Yep Yep, Patroclus knew his cards!
