Role in Calythera


The Embassy Quarter functions as the civilized counterbalance to the raw commerce of the wharves and the shadowed dealings of Cogger’s Alley. It is where the public face of coalition relations is maintained and where many of the continent’s most important long-term agreements are negotiated. Reputation here is especially sensitive — a single misstep in protocol can damage standing for cycles.

For House Corvayne, the Quarter represents both opportunity and caution. As nomads they are often received with respect but rarely full trust, making every visit a delicate balance of diplomacy and pragmatism.
