History

Grymforge

Jaheira would, at one point, hear word of a drow cultist recruiting duergar in the nearby Grymforge, as well as their attempts to find potential weapons. Seeking to find the cultists' intentions, Jhaam would receive orders to scout and bring word of the cult's deeds back to Last Light Inn^[1].

However, Jhaam was caught by duergar under Nere's command, and would find herself interrogated and then later hanged by Murmath before she could bring news of the cult's intentions to Last Light.
