As the odd stranger predicted, Travis' other guests have arrived at last. It looks like Lord Brightspot, with his Knabstrupper horses, dalmatian coach dogs and liveried leopard servants, is a leopard of...taste.
An interesting note---it is much easier to find good historical reference for the costume of the well to do than for that of servants and the lower class, for all of the reasons you'd expect. I am not certain that those hats are appropriate for this comic's AU-1880s, but I wanted them. If they fail history, please excuse them as more of Laran Brightspot's taste for the fancy.

the higher the station, the higher the sum they waste on trivial adornments. :)
what's true for then 1800's is even worse for medieval times, since nobody bothered to paint a commoner into a hourbook miniature. some artists did, though, so we at least have an idea of medieval folk's clothing styles. also, moor corpses and old gravesites are like a lottery win for archeologists, since garments are also well-preserved, or at least in fragments.
