Besma Greive

Besma Greive was a researcher who lived on Hitchemus for many years. She researched the Hitechemus Tigers for a long time, but never made much of a breakthrough, although Anji Kapoor found the truth amongst her notes.

Besma shared a house with many tigers, most noteably Longbody, and even taught some of them how to speak the language of humans. She thought of them as her friends or pets.

Besma never cared much for the noise of Hitchemus's many musicians, and was mainly there just for the tigers. She spent a lot of time in the library, and then later, with Anji Kapoor and the Movement.

Besma was killed by Longbody outside the Stela. The book states that Longbody later felt dissappointed that Besma hadn't recognised her.
