The founder of the Pursina lineage was the rival of the House of Purbiruni in the field of astrology. Since then, the two families have become rather close.
Pursina's Spikes were invented by a member of the House of Pursina who was talented in their research on ley lines.
In the present, an unnamed member of the House of Pursina authored The Saga of Hamavaran, a Sumeru historical novel. Khedive, an ecologist in the Amurta, traveled to The Chasm to conduct some research.
