Ward Overview
Unlike other districts in the city, even to the experienced eye it is not always obvious when one passes from Thousand Alleys or the Northwharf into Sanctuary. The ward has no appearance or feel of its own. What sets Sanctuary apart from the rest of the City of Æzàlar are the people that live and work there. Sanctuary is home to a number of religious, thief, and merchant guilds which are allowed to exist and operate without oversight. Everything that happens in Sanctuary, the repercussions of which never leave its streets. Suffice to say, the honest and cautious do not walk the streets of this district, for even the city guard will not enter to rescue strays. At least one High Lord of Æzàlar made frequent visits to the ward before disappearing for good. Days later a guild spokesman announced that he would not be returning, and the Cult crowned a successor.
