Monks Curtain

At the south end of Ambrose, backing on the dock district of Ambrose Wharves, is a street known as Monks Curtain. It is a crowded region devoted to the arcane, exotic, and dangerous, particularly alchemy in its varied forms. The local offfices of the International Society of Alchemy are located here, as well as the shops of many arcane researchers, both the independent and those in smaller cabals.
While the ISA offers the highest quality alchemical substances and supplies, but the cut-rate apothecaries do plenty of business as well, particularly among the lower classes who can't afford ISA stock. The less scrupulous make decent coin selling half-baked salves, ointments, or potions that are supposed to help against some of the diseases common in the poorer districts.
Monks Curtain has a reputation as the best place to find illicit components, poisons, and materials for dark rites and rituals. It's just a matter of finding the right provider, asking the right questions, and having enough coin. Any of the wealthy Lords of Norrilund would love to control such a lucrative industry, but the street has kept its tenuous independence. That doesn't mean you won't find their enforcers in the region.
Notable shops on Monks Curtain include Sabrina's, Sanctu Balthazar, and the Chymists' Cavern.
