A Purple Parlor is the informal name for the operation undertaken by the Blades of Greymane to gain the aid of the privateer crew known as the Lilac Cohort, who are based primarily out of the waters of Tiragarde in an area known as the Lavander Landing. The Lilac Cohort was one of the few remaining privateering organizations in Kul Tiras that had yet to sign over to the Ashvane Trading Company.
With Boralus under heavier and heavier threat with Priscilla Ashvane's betrayal, Irontide goons pressed more and more privateers into a life of pirating, moving them to turn their backs on Kul Tiras as a whole in favor of Ashvane's twisted vision of the nation under her rule. The Blades moved quickly, just before the cusp of the Siege of Boralus, to prevent the Lilac Cohort from signing on with Ashvane; as their fleet was one of the last larger pirate fleets that yet remained.
