Excerpt from The Wolf Queen Book Four
She dressed in her simplest black and gold robe and went to her stateroom to prepare. Her son, Uriel, was on the throne, playing with his pet joughat.

"Good morning, mom."

"Good morning, darling," said Potema, lifting her son in the air with feigned stain.

Perhaps raki will fill that role, joughat just being another name.

They doesn't seem very pet-like in this video :?

But they definitely have some sort of hat.

BTW youtube channel seems abandoned.

From origins of the Raki:
[...]Back in the year 110 of the Third Era, Potema, the Wolf Queen of Solitude, was visited by King Orgnum of Pyandonea to plot against her brother, Antiochus. As part of his entourage was a collection of what we now call raki as a diplomatic gift alongside two maomer handlers who . After showing the beasts’ usefulness in a hunt, where young Uriel III was saved from the wrath of a wounded but enraged boar by a team of raki, Potema became enamored by the creatures, and the beasts from then on followed her wherever she went throughout Castle Solitude.

As any citizen of the Septim Empire will tell you, Potema’s reign of Solitude was notorious and rank with the intimidation and repression of her subjects, and her ruthlessness only greatened with the onset of the War of the Red Diamond. There were rumors concerning the filleting of her prisoners in order to be fed to her pet raki.[...]

S:HotN lore is that the Raki came from Pyandonea? Hmm, I'll have to keep that in mind for Lyithdonea. Which has a lot of ties and hints at ties to the Maormer.
