It encompassed Mount Waterdeep, Castle Waterdeep, and much of the government of the city, which included the Palace of Waterdeep, occupied by Piergeiron the Paladinson in the mid-14th century DR, and the residences of many prosperous Waterdhavians.[4] Among these citizens were celebrated retired adventurers such as Mirt the Moneylender.
