Ta'Vaalor is a militaristic elven city-state in northeastern Elanith ruled by the House of Vaalor. It is one of the five major states that comprise the Elven Nations.
History
Ta'Vaalor was built as an island fortress on the Mistydeep River. The natural moat gives it a highly defensible position. The city was made accessible to adventurers in 5103 with the the opening of the trail across the Dragonspine Mountains. It is separated from Ta'Illistim and its environs by the Lake of Fear. A free ferry service (funded by King Qalinor of Ta'Vaalor) crosses the lake every 15 minutes or so. Passengers can bribe the ferry captain to speed the journey along at the price of 5,000 silvers worth of gems or notes, or 2,500 for citizens. Experienced adventurers may also take the more dangerous Aradhul Road between the two realms.
Qalinor Falustro Vaalor is the current King of Ta'Vaalor, succeeding Tyrnian in 5113.
Among the city's other wandering residents are a dwarven recruiter, a sleek golden ferret, a light-robed erithian woman, the Guard Captain, a middle-aged blonde elven priestess, a ragged old blind man, and a white-robed acolyte.

Young adventurers can earn silvers by running errands for Sassion. Sassion can be found in the building inside the Vermilion Gate. Pass beyond the curtain inside. She'll ask you to deliver messages to the guards at the four gates and to the guard at the southernmost end of Amaranth Court. By the way, these guards do sometimes get thirsty while on duty - so if you happen to have a glass of water handy, they may well appreciate it.
Young adventurers should also ask the various shop proprietors for a job. Some of them are looking for various goods and oddities.
Lastly, adventurers should get a permit from the citizenship clerk at Wyvern Keep.
Permits
On Phoenatos 26, 5109, King Tyrnian decreed that a permit was needed for visitors to Ta'Vaalor, which can be obtained from the citizenship clerk in Wyvern Keep. The monthly permit is free to new adventurers as well as to citizens of Ta'Vaalor, but costs a fee of 2000 silvers otherwise.
Having a permit allows one to trade in the town shops and enter the city gates at night without being subjected to a lengthy personal search.
To find the citizenship office in Wyvern Keep, head east after entering the main hall, then go through the arch. You do not have to hold this document in your hand when encountering shopkeepers and guards, but it is helpful to have a hand available if you need to find it in a hurry.
