- In Session 7, the party appeared unexpectedly inside his Emerald City office.
- He was carrying a green-and-gold chest containing a preserved white Rose of Igoda.
- Ahkai restrained him after the party was discovered.
- Elarisian documents connect his government to research on Rose, the Kheldr Institute and plans to cleanse Dharan.
- Two papers Ahkai took from his desk were read in Session 8 and are tracked as [[The Rose of Igoda/14 - Books & Records/Boristov Desk Papers|Boristov's Desk Papers]]. One concerns Elarisian efforts to turn a [[The Rose of Igoda/06 - Factions & Organisations/Shuyet|Shuyet]] operative into an asset; the other concerns [[The Rose of Igoda/05 - Nations & Regions/Nuanstar|Nuanstar]] seeking closer relations and greater unity while Elaris considers how to use the situation to its advantage.
