Mount Talath

Considered by some to be the center of magic in Halruaa, MountTalath is a small town located high on the slopes of one of thetallest mountains in the Walls. The town is really nothing morethan a series of homes for the folk who work in the high templeto Mystra carved into the mountainside.

Despite the best efforts of the priests, thieves and spies occasionallygain entrance, but ample abjuration magic is alwaysin place to deal with such intruders. Many are not found forseveral days after they have been fried, frozen, or partiallydisintegrated.

The complex has some degree of organization—visitors canusually locate any desired piece of magical knowledge with nomore than five or six years’ worth of diligent research. Halruaanwizards pride themselves on their ability to track down theinformation they need in Talath’s caverns, and some divinershave actually devoted their lives to the goal of devising newspells expressly for speeding that process. In the end, though, noone in all Halruaa—except perhaps a lich or two with knowledgeof such matters—has any real idea just how vast the body ofinformation within Mount Talath is.
