House of Shade and Grace

Built of imported, sunbaked desert brick with ornately carved panels of fragrant wood screening its open windows, this storied inn and performance hall is the center of the Foreign Quarter’s Thuvian community. Here, Thuvian visitors and expatriates can enjoy the familiar comforts of floral, intensely concentrated teas, share sweet-scented tobacco smoked in sinuous pipes, and gather around communal dishes of spiced goat and curried chickpeas served over platters of onion-flecked rice. The occasional clockwork masterpiece sometimes shows up among the inn’s decorations, usually due to either the direct or inadvertent actions of Lord Yamthar of House Ormuz.
