The building is the city's premier Linguistic Exchange. It provides certified translation services for legal documents, trade contracts, and diplomatic missives. The Guild maintains a roster of on-call interpreters who can be hired to accompany merchants to the Low Market or to assist the Directing Oligarchy during audiences with foreign dignitaries. This is a long, two-story structure made of timber and brick, distinguished by its large, colorful banners displaying the scripts of various nations: the flowing runes of the Elves, the harsh angles of Dwarven, and the elegant calligraphy of the Baklunish west.
