ARCHIVE SUMMARY
The official Thayan diplomatic mission in Waterdeep where the party was summoned to negotiate with Red Wizard representatives. The embassy served as the setting for Yathra Soluun's offer (fifty thousand gold dragons and a writ of protection from Szass Tam) in exchange for the Calamus Pactum, the hidden Nathlum pages describing the Lawful Draw ritual, and Lysandra Mortain; the encounter highlighted Thay's interest in the party's infernal artifacts and the larger danger of Szass Tam's ambitions.
Sovereign Thayan diplomatic enclave in Waterdeep’s Castle Ward; a severe, dark‑stone compound that operates under Thayan law and is a locus for discreet private negotiations, unofficial trade, and matters that comfortably evade local Waterdhavian jurisdiction. The embassy presents a polite exterior while functioning as a channel for Red Wizard influence and special, extralegal exchanges.
