The Heralds' Rest
This exclusive, luxurious private home looks like a small castle. Inside it's a haven of tapestries, carpeting' discreet veils, and polite, skilled lady and gentleman escorts. Reputed to be run by a former princess from a city-state of the eastern Sea of Fallen Stars who grew weary of the dictates of protocol and class, the Rest takes its name from a long-ago visit by three High Heralds, predecessors of the present-day holders of the offices, who were so delighted that one took his escort as wife, and all three offered to buy the place.
The offer was refused, but the Heralds were allowed to sponsor the Rest through some lean times, and they now share in its profits. There are rumors of documents, treasure, and even Harpers on the run being hidden in the dimly lit chambers and passages of the Rest - and some folk say magical gates link it with Silverymoon, Ardeepforest near Waterdeep, and with nearby Twilight Hall. High fees are rumored to be paid for discreet use of these portals to courier valuable folk or items about in a hurry.
