Template:1354 DR Castle Ward Alleys

• Buckle Alley, once the heart of the Shadow Thieves’ Guild territory, city guardsmen were warned to buckle on their blades before entering it;
• Cat Alley, a.k.a. Cats Alley, this narrow twisting, turning passage was frequented years ago by a masked, rapier-wielding man of wealth who scared young women and cut away their garments but was never arrested;
• Elsambul’s Lane, named for a long-dead priest of Mask and now one of the few areas with graffiti on its walls (they say Elsambul himself still leaves enigmatic messages and clues to hidden treasures on the walls!), it attracts many folk beyond simple curiosity seekers;
• Jesters’ Court, a courtyard—frequented now by hard-currency girls and minstrels—that has also been a performance stage for jugglers and comics as well as a meeting place for eloping lovers;
• Sevenlamps Cut, named for seven fancy magical lamps placed here long ago by Ahghairon himself, this safe alley is the place to hire spellcasters (apprentice wizards and poor underpriests) for quick healing, curse removals, or some magical firepower for your latest excursion into Undermountain.
• Turnback Court, a lamplit, shallow alley at the end of Selduth Street that is used as a rallying point for watch and guard patrols both day and night.
