The Sea Ward of Waterdeep was the wealthiest ward in Waterdeep and located in the northwest of the city.[1][2]
Geography[]
The ward was delimited by the Trollwall on the north and west, by Julthoon Street to the south, and by Shield Street to the east, extending to the High Road north of Vondil Street.[5]
The ward contained the Field of Triumph, Heroes' Garden and the Sea's Edge Beach.[2] It also contained some of the city's largest temples.[6]
History[]
The Sea Ward was officially included as one of the official wards of Waterdeep in the Year of the Crumbling Keep, 1276 DR, together with the North Ward.[3][4]

Notes[]
- ↑ The name of the tavern is misspelled as "Silken Slyph" in City of Splendors: Waterdeep but it is spelled correctly in the novel The Dream Spheres.
- ↑ The events of the Living City Ravens Bluff campaign took place on a timeline that advanced together with the real world's time. Even though all Living City adventures and issues of Ravens Bluff Trumpeter were dated with real-world dates, there were events that received a DR year. The Living City timeline can be derived from Myrkyssa Jelan's historic events of the late 14th century DR. Myrkyssa Jelan attacked Ravens Bluff in 1370 DR, according to The City of Ravens Bluff and Forgotten Realms Campaign Setting 3rd edition; these events are chronicled in an in-and-out of universe issues of Ravens Bluff Trumpeter. This places the real world year 1997 as 1370 DR, and in 1998 (1371 DR), Myrkyssa was at last arrested and tried and said to have been executed, only to reappear in 1372 DR in The City of Ravens novel. As the real world's months and the Calendar of Harptos are virtually identical, we can also date all events of the Living City Ravens Bluff as close as an in-universe month.
