The astrologers give the Great Kaan’s court an air of watchful mystery, their counsel tied to the reading of signs beyond the ordinary world. They feel measured and intent, figures whose influence seems to begin in what they notice and interpret.

The astrologers appear as advisors to the Great Kaan, a recurring presence whose knowledge is consulted within the rhythms of his court. The text offers no individual biographies or relationships, presenting them collectively through their advisory role rather than as distinct characters.
Description
The astrologers are not individually described, and the text gives no specific information about their appearance. Their age, build, coloring, hair, eyes, facial features, clothing, and distinguishing marks remain unspecified; they should be represented as a collective without invented details.
